Lenovo's next-generation ThinkPad X1 Fold is the foldable PC you didn't know you needed
Lenovo has launched a number of new products today, but it is its latest foldable PC that is bound to be the device that gets people talking the most.
The ThinkPad X1 Fold is designed to be ultra-portable, with a sleeker and thinner design. The new 16.3-inch folding OLED display (with a 4:3 aspect ratio) is 22 percent larger, and married with 25 percent thinner chassis and thinner bezels.
Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Fold is 'the world's first foldable PC' with a hefty price tag
So far -- as Samsung will attest -- folding devices have been a bit of a disaster, but Lenovo thinks it has got things nailed with its ThinkPad X1 Fold which it officially revealed at CES.
Due for release in mid-2020, the "world's first foldable PC" features a 13.3-inch folded OLED and Lenovo says it delivers "laptop efficiency with smartphone portability". The device will initially ship with Windows 10, but a Windows 10X version will follow. A 5G version will also be available. Lenovo envisions its device being used in a variety of ways, but the only sticking point may be the price.
