However, it is pretty surprising, as nobody expected it since most of the rumors are about smartphones that are transformed into tablets taking advantage of the technology and possibilities of the folding screen, as we all know how the South Korean giant Samsung has done with the Galaxy Fold and Huawei with its Mate X.
Meet The World’s First Foldable Laptop
If anyone still has some doubts that this year we will see more devices with folding screens or not, then let me clarify that the well-known Chinese brand Lenovo has just released a huge bombshell. Yes, Lenovo launched the all-new ThinkPad X1, the world’s first laptop with a foldable screen. However, it is pretty surprising, as nobody expected it since most of the rumors are about smartphones that are transformed into tablets taking advantage of the technology and possibilities of the folding screen, as we all know how the South Korean giant Samsung has done with the Galaxy Fold and Huawei with its Mate X.

For this reason, the well-known Chinese company Lenovo gave details we will find on this laptop since everything was focused on its folding screen and its extraordinary possibilities. While Lenovo presented this all-new ThinkPad X1 during the ‘Accelerate‘ event in Florida, United States, where it made the first demo of this ThinkPad X1, which will be a laptop and the start of a family of products that will have a standard folding screen. However, the fact is that ThinkPad X1 is not its final name; if we talk about its features, then let me clarify that it will have a 13-inch OLED screen manufactured by the South Korean giant LG Display that will offer a 2K resolution. Moreover, it is an ‘Always Connected, Always On‘ laptop; hence, it will always be on and connected, which will surprisingly have an Intel processor and Windows 10 OS, although the details of the processor model and the Microsoft operating system version were not yet given. It will support Stylus and, according to Lenovo, it is based on the folding technology developed by LG Display, the same technology we already have seen in its roll-up television.
According to Lenovo, it is not a smartphone or a tablet, nor a convertible, as it is a folding PC that combines the laptop’s productivity with the smartphone’s portability. Before this announcement, some well-known American media portals already had the opportunity to test this ThinkPad X1 prototype. They justified what it is and what Lenovo has done. However, the most surprising thing is that the folding zone was not seen, as the hinge was hidden on the outside thanks to a leather coating, a material used throughout the outer body of the device, which simply makes the device more premium.
