If you’re based in the US, Lenovo sneakily released a host of new laptops and concepts overnight, including ThinkPad, Yoga, and Legion models. Let’s focus on some of the concepts here.
It’s debatable which one of the many concepts is the most bizarre, but my vote goes to the Modular AI PC, which has a detachable secondary display that can be mounted onto the back cover of the laptop, the base of the laptop (by removing the keyboard), or set on a kickstand.
You can freely configure your workflow’s setup. The ports, including USB-C, USB-A, and HDMI, are hot-swappable, too.
Also: Is Microsoft really spying on you with Windows telemetry?
Then there’s the Legion Go Fold, featuring a 7.7-inch display that can expand to 11.6 inches and can be connected to detachable controllers in vertical or horizontal orientation. When not used as a gaming tablet, the Legion Go Fold can be mounted onto a keyboard case, becoming an ultraportable, 2-in-1 computing device.
Lenovo also showed off the AI Workmate Concept here in Barcelona, a desk robot with an articulating head that can converse with you and project images and documents as requested. It won’t be the quietest workmate, nor can it travel with you as you navigate a hybrid workflow, but Lenovo believes it’s a potential avenue for future spatial capabilities.
