Lenovo Unveils its First Laptop With a Rollable Screen

In 2022, Lenovo showcased a unique laptop with a display that expanded upward to provide more screen space. At CES 2025 last week, the company turned that concept into reality with the release of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6.

This laptop concept was first revealed at Lenovo’s Tech World 2022 event, alongside a Motorola phone with a screen that could extend to 6.5 inches when needed. Since then, several other ThinkBook concepts emerged, including one with a transparent display and another featuring a color E Ink top, but the rollable screen idea seemed to fade into the background.

Until now. Later this year, the concept will come to life as the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 hits the market with a hefty price tag. Targeted at business professionals, it will also appeal to anyone who requires extra vertical screen space—such as coders, spreadsheet experts, and content creators.

The OLED display starts at 14 inches diagonally, and with a simple button press or a wave in front of the webcam, the flexible screen extends to 16.7 inches from bottom corner to top. Regardless of the size, it offers refresh rates up to 120 Hz, 400 nits of brightness, and full coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut. Split-screen functionality and multiple window layouts are also supported.

The laptop comes equipped with Series 2 Intel Core Ultra 7 processors, promising AI-optimized performance, integrated Arc X graphics, up to 32 GB of dual-channel RAM, and 1 TB of SSD storage. It features an edge-to-edge keyboard, Harman Kardon speakers, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4, and is currently undergoing durability tests to meet MIL-STD-810H standards.

The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 is expected to be available starting in June, with a starting price of $3,499. For more details, check out the video below.
