As futuristic technologies go, devices that can be folded in half and carried around offer a supreme level of luxury. This vision is one that laptop maker Lenovo wants to achieve.
At an event in New York, the China-based firm has revealed a new concept for personalised laptops – a laptop that is able to bend in half, be folded down, and also contains a built-in keyboard.
Lenovo says the idea will use “new screen technologies” to allow it to be folded when not in use. The image of the concept released by the firm shows a screen that stretches across most of the laptop and curves towards the keyboard. Lenovo added that the device will be controlled by voice and its pointing stick that’s used on current ThinkPads from the firm.
Other details revealed around the product are incredibly vague and it’s unlikely that the device will ever be created. We don’t know if work has started on the concept, what sort of new technologies would be used for the screen and even if it would be practical to mostly interact with a laptop using voice (Siri, Alexa, Cortana, and other virtual assistants still operate at a basic level)
What do you guys think ? I think this laptop is great. Even if it's still a concept for now, I wish they can start the project this year.
Samsung and apple are working on slimier technologies.
