Lenovo Unveils Foldable Laptop with an Expanding 18-Inch Screen – International Edition (English)

<ul class="mol-bullets-with-font"> <li class=""> <strong> <strong> EXPLORE FURTHER: MailOnline tests the initial temperature-sensitive color-shifting smartphone </strong> </strong> </li> </ul> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Chinese company Lenovo has presented its newest laptop model, which might be its most unconventional design so far. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The ThinkBook 'Flip' <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ai/index.html"> AI </a> The PC may appear as an ordinary laptop, were it not for the significantly enlarged display that is double the size of the chassis. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The screen is almost comically large at 18.1 inches tall—taller than a bowling pin or as wide as an extra-large pizza. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> However, the screen can also fold backward along the center, allowing the user to share the display with someone sitting opposite them. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Lenovo claims that this unusual design element along with the built-in AI assistant make the device ideal for office gatherings, improving 'corporate teamwork'. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> And if the user wants to watch <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/netflix/index.html"> Netflix </a> or just doesn't need the keyboard, they can fold down the screen flat, covering up the keyboard. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'Eric Yu from Lenovo Intelligent Devices Group stated that the ThinkBook codenamed "Flip AI PC Concept" embodies our perspective on tomorrow's technology,' he remarked. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'AI-driven gadgets will enhance efficiency, customization, and cooperation as never seen before.' </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1A9B3Q" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1A9B3Q.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1A9KDX" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1A9KDX.jpg"/> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Lenovo states that this striking laptop is merely a conceptual device, suggesting it probably won’t be available for purchase in the near future. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Nevertheless, this prototype provides insight into what future workspaces will employ to boost efficiency, as stated by the company. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Lenovo has manufactured the device in small batches, and MailOnline had the opportunity to see it in action at MWC in Barcelona on Monday. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> When the ThinkBook 'Flip' <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ai/index.html"> AI </a> At full size (18.1 inches), the PC monitor offers either a single large display or the option to use split-screen functionality for two smaller displays. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> When folded back to share with someone across from you, the display adjusts so that the other person doesn’t see it upside down. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Users have the option to fold the upper portion of the screen completely backwards, leaving it unused, which makes the user experience resemble that of a traditional laptop more closely. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Even though it remains just an idea at this point, Lenovo is exploring a trend where consumers favor unusually tall displays. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> An increasing number of employees favor vertical screens for scrolling news updates, extensive email threads, and TikTok-like mobile clips that are oriented vertically instead of horizontally. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1A9I7g" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1A9I7g.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1A9DNZ" data-reference="image"

expandable display that grows longer and longer whenever you toggle a switch. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The 12.7-inch screen of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable AI PC can transform into a 15.3-inch display in just 10 seconds. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> MailOnline is reporting on all the peculiar yet amazing technological gadgets showcased at MWC this week, the prominent
