Flexible OLED tech has come a long way and started sharking up the smartphone and tablet market, but Lenovo now apparently wants to use rolling OLED displays to increase screen real-estate on its laptops without actually making them much bigger. According to notorious leaker, Evan Blass, in a post on X, Lenovo will launch the sixth-generation of its ThinkBook Plus line-up with a rollable OLED display that can extend upwards to give it significantly more screen real-estate. Blass claims that the new ThinkBook Plus will launch at CES 2025, which is slated to take place between January 7 and January 10, 2025.

Looking at the renders that were shared alongside the leaks, and based on the size of the keyboard, the new ThinkBook will have a tall—it looks like 3:4 aspect ratio—screen that's somewhere in the neighborhood of 14 inches before the screen is fully unrolled. After unrolling, though, it appears to be able to fit two 16:9 windows on top of each other. Previous iterations of the ThinkBook Plus 17 had a small secondary display on the keyboard deck to the right of the keyboard, and the ThinkBook Plus 13 models consisted of the Gen 5 hybrid model with a detachable display and the Gen 4 variant, which had a 360° hinge and a color e-ink display on the back of the main OLED. While these designs all made compromises, whether in the suboptimal ergonomics of the mini screen of the 17 or the fact that you could only use one display at a time on the e-ink version. Previous ThinkBook versions were also compatible with an MPP stylus for handwriting, note-taking, and even image editing or sketching. It's unclear if the new ThinkBook Plus will be compatible with pen input, but there do not seem to be any images online showing the leaked laptop with a stylus in the same image.
