Editorial report
Lenovo Legion Y70 16 GB / 512 GB / China technical sheet
The Lenovo Legion Y70 suits buyers looking for a gaming-oriented phone with a high-refresh-rate display. Its main trade-off is weight: at 209 g, it is heavier than most phones of its time. This China configuration also has no Google Services, which matters to anyone who relies on Google apps and services.
The 6.67-inch AMOLED display runs at 144 Hz, among the highest refresh rates of phones of its time. At 8 mm thick, the body is thinner than most phones launched around the same time. This version has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage; the Legion Y70 is also sold with 12 GB / 256 GB and 16 GB / 512 GB. Its AnTuTu result is among the best of phones launched around the same time. The processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.
The 50 MP rear main camera pairs a sensor larger than those in most phones of its time with optical image stabilization and 8K video recording. Its 5100 mAh battery and 68 W fast charging are better than those of most phones of its time. Overall, the Lenovo Legion Y70 earns a NeoScore of 7.0. It is a compelling option for buyers who prioritize a fast display, a strong AnTuTu result, and faster charging, provided the weight and lack of Google Services in this configuration fit their needs.
