Add DeviceSpecifications as a preferred source on GoogleLenovo is expanding its high‑end tablet lineup with two new premium models, the Legion Y900 11 and the larger Legion Y900 13. Although they share a unified design language, identical software, and many overlapping features, the two tablets diverge sharply in performance class, display size, and battery capacity - creating a clear split between a lightweight productivity slate and a heavyweight performance machine.
Both models arrive in the same trio of colors - Carbon‑Crystal Black, Ice White, and Starlight Purple - and both use a metal chassis that measures just 5.99 mm thick. The difference becomes obvious when picking them up: the 11‑inch version weighs 480 grams, while the 13‑inch model reaches 599 grams, a noticeable jump that reflects its larger display and bigger battery.
Inside, the two tablets take very different approaches to processing power. The Legion Y900 11 is powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 9500s, built on a 3 nm process and featuring a Cortex‑X925 prime core at 3.73 GHz. The Legion Y900 13, however, steps into flagship‑plus territory with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, using Oryon cores clocked up to 4.61 GHz and paired with a faster Adreno 840 GPU. Both tablets offer RAM options up to 16 GB, but the 13‑inch model uses LPDDR5T memory at 5333 MHz, giving it a clear edge in bandwidth. Storage options match at 256 GB or 512 GB, with UFS 4.1 on the smaller model and UFS 4.1 Pro on the larger one.
The displays share the same 3840 x 2560 resolution, 36‑bit color depth, 144 Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision support, and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection. The difference lies in scale: the Y900 11 uses an 11.1‑inch IPS panel with a dense 416 ppi, while the Y900 13 stretches the same resolution across a 13‑inch canvas at 355 ppi. Both panels deliver 1100 nits of typical brightness and 2340 Hz PWM dimming, with TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light certification.
Camera hardware is nearly identical, with a 13MP rear camera capable of 1080p video and an 8 MP front camera with face unlock. The 13‑inch model adds a secondary 2MP sensor on the back. Audio is a highlight on both devices. Each tablet features six speakers tuned by Harman/Kardon with Dolby Atmos support, creating a strong multimedia experience that pairs well with the high‑resolution displays. Connectivity is equally matched, including Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, USB‑C 3.2 Gen 2 with DP Alt Mode.
Battery life is where the two models diverge most dramatically. The Legion Y900 11 carries an 11,000 mAh battery, while the Y900 13 boosts capacity to 12,700 mAh. Both support fast charging at 68W. Stylus support is identical, with both tablets compatible with the Lenovo Stylus Pro Gen 2, offering 8192 levels of pressure sensitivity.
