Lenovo launches an superior arcade dock for Legion Tab [Gallery]

Lenovo’s newest Legion Tab era simply launched in China this week and, alongside it, an superior little arcade dock that I’d completely purchase if given the possibility.

The “Legion Y700 Pill Arcade Dock” is actually an arcade cupboard for Lenovo’s Legion Tab gaming pill. The 8.8-inch Android pill slots into the dock, plugs right into a USB-C port, and you then’ve received a tiny little arcade able to play no matter you need. The pliability of Android, particularly for retro gaming emulators, opens up a world of choices.

The dock is filled with an arcade-style joystick, eight coloured buttons, and 5 extra buttons up high, leaving the door open to mainly something you’d need to play.

I had a real “I would like one” Tony Stark second with this, as that is simply a lot enjoyable. The design of the arcade dock is filled with whimsy and that retro really feel, whereas packing all the performance you’d need. Positive, there are many third-party arcade-style controllers on the market, however that is a lot extra enjoyable.

It’s not expensive, both, coming in at round $60 when transformed to US {dollars}.

However, sadly, this one looks as if it’s on sale solely in China. Lenovo lists the arcade dock on its retailer for ¥399, however there’s no signal of it following the Legion Tab (Gen 5) to a world launch. It’s additionally a brand new product for Lenovo, obtainable just for the most recent era Legion Tab (bought because the Legion Y700 in China).

If it’s something just like the Legion Tab’s neat Steam Deck-like gaming controller, it’ll most likely make its solution to AliExpress and, if that’s the case, I may simply have to choose one up. Going ahead, although, I hope Lenovo embraces this enjoyable tackle its compact Android gaming pill on the worldwide market too.

Legion Tab (Gen 5) is launching quickly within the US and globally for $849.
