The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 has a "rollable" screen that expands the display by almost 50%, and there's a good idea here behind the party trick.
With a notebook PC with a screen that rolls, a monitor with directional audio, and the first third-party SteamOS gaming handheld, Lenovo is hitting CES 2025 hard.
Lenovo previewed a novel laptop sporting a display that expanded upward to offer the user more screen real estate. At CES 2025 last week, the company took concept into reality with the launch of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6.
In my Legion Go review, Lenovo's first go at a handheld performed pretty well after a bout of bugginess at launch. While it was great at the time, handheld gaming is progressing and changing very quickly, and the Lenovo Legion Go 2 seems to answer players' requests for a more powerful device.

I've been recommending the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i for years, but at CES 2025, Lenovo is upending its winning formula.
Lenovo announced a handful of new additions this week, including a rollable laptop and a sleek new ultraportable that squares with the MacBook Air.
