Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable: Rolling out your future laptop?

Ever thought you needed a laptop with a taller display? Lenovo at CES 2025 showed off what can be considered the first commercially available rollable laptop. The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable joins a line of experimental laptops from Lenovo. Unrolled, it inconspicuously looks like your typical 14-inch laptop. But with a button press, the Samsung Display flexible OLED unfurls into a 16.7-inch vertical screen.

The laptop is meant to give you that extra-screen real estate without the bulk associated with dual-screen laptops. The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable is rated for at least 30,000 lid hinge cycles and 20,000 roll cycles (up and down).

Lenovo explores rollable laptop concept

Aside from a rollable smartphone concept (through Motorola), Lenovo is also exploring bringing the technology to its laptops. The rollable laptop concept looks like it has your typical landscape display, but then it rolls up to a square shape. This form factor should make it easier to view documents or look at things like vertical videos. As with foldable smartphones, it opens up the possibility of packing in a larger display into a smaller or at least more compact form factor. We don't know if this concept will ever see the light of day, but we'd love to see Lenovo take a shot at bringing this to market.
