Lenovo has officially launched its ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 laptop, which boasts a unique feature – an expandable screen that can grow up to 16.7 inches in size. The device’s 14-inch base screen can be extended by pressing a button or using a hand gesture, allowing users to access more real estate on the go.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 features a 120Hz refresh rate and a 400-nit brightness rating on its OLED display. When expanded, the screen jumps from 2000×1600 to 2000×2350 resolution. The laptop also comes with preloaded software, including the ThinkBook Workspace application, which helps users manage their workflow and pin widgets to the bottom of the screen.
While the laptop is impressive in terms of engineering, it’s a larger and heavier device than expected, weighing 3.73 pounds. However, Lenovo has equipped it with a powerful Core Ultra 9 vPro-enabled CPU, M.2 slots, and up to 64GB of RAM, making it suitable for demanding tasks.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 is set to be available in Q1 this year, starting at $3,499. The device’s unique feature and impressive specs make it an exciting addition to the world of laptops, but its high price point may deter some potential buyers.
Key specifications include:
* Up to Core Ultra 9 vPro-enabled CPU
* Intel Arc Xe2 graphics
* Up to 32GB LPDDR5x memory
* Intel Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 wireless connectivity
* 66 Whr battery, dimensions: 11.93 x 9.06 x 0.78 inches
Lenovo’s ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 offers a futuristic computing experience with its expandable screen feature. While it may not be the most portable device, its impressive specs and innovative design make it an attractive option for those who need extra screen real estate on the go.
