Lenovo and Intel unveil ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable laptop with expandable screen

Lenovo and Intel launch a world-first rollable laptop, integrating an expandable screen and advanced Artificial Intelligence features.

Lenovo, in collaboration with Intel, has announced the release of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable, introducing the world´s first rollable laptop display. The device is powered by an Intel Core Ultra processor and incorporates on-device Artificial Intelligence capabilities, including Microsoft Copilot+. Launching on June 19, the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable addresses the demand for larger, more flexible screen space without increasing the device´s physical footprint.

The innovative rollable display can vertically expand from 14 inches to 16.7 inches, activated either by a hand gesture or a button press. This expansion increases available screen space by nearly 50 percent. For professional users, this translates to notable productivity gains: for example, displaying 66 lines in a spreadsheet instead of 39, and allowing programmers to view more lines of code simultaneously. The laptop is also tailored to multitaskers and presenters, who can benefit from stacking dual 16:9 displays, facilitating enhanced workflow and presentation capabilities, especially when working on the go.

Apart from productivity applications, the rollable design also enhances the experience with content designed for vertical use, such as social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Lenovo and Intel´s co-engineered solution seeks to reduce the reliance on multiple monitors or excessive scrolling, providing a seamless transition between standard and expanded display modes. The integration of Artificial Intelligence and Microsoft´s Copilot+ further personalizes and streamlines user tasks, embedding advanced smart features directly into the device. The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable represents a significant step forward in laptop flexibility and technological integration, reflecting both companies´ commitment to redefining the portable computing experience.
