Lenovo Unveils Rollable ThinkBook Plus Gen 6: Innovation Meets Practicality Concerns
A new rollable laptop from Lenovo, the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6, has been reviewed, showcasing its unique expanding display technology. The device features a 14-inch OLED screen that can extend to 16.7 inches with the push of a button, offering increased screen real estate for multitasking. The 120Hz flexible OLED display is praised for its punchy colors and crisp details, and the laptop's Intel chip reportedly provides approximately 9 hours of battery life. However, the review also highlighted several concerns. The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 comes with a significant price tag of $3,300, which is considerably more expensive than non-rolling Lenovo models with similar specifications. Reviewers noted the presence of visible ripples and a slight crease on the flexible screen. Additionally, the screen was observed to creak and wobble when tilted, raising questions about its long-term durability. Despite these issues, the innovative design positions the laptop as a cutting-edge concept now available for purchase.
