Lenovo likes to explore various laptop designs, and its newest idea showcases a screen that rotates. Unveiled at the IFA trade show in Berlin shortly after it was leaked online, the ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept is a 14-inch Windows computer equipped with a “rotation display system” that enables it to pivot into portrait mode, perfect for TikTok fans.

In terms of design, it bears similarities to Samsung’s Sero TVs, which also switch between landscape and portrait orientations. However, the Sero still clings to its novelty appeal.

The ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept is merely a concept for now, with no guarantees it will hit the market. At significant trade shows like CES and IFA, companies frequently display futuristic concept gadgets that may never be launched. Lenovo’s rollable display laptop, the $3,499 ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable, serves as a unique instance of a prototype that eventually saw market release, two years after it was first introduced.

Information on the ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept is limited, aside from its fascinating feature. A press release indicates it has a 14-inch display, a sleek profile of 0.7 inches thick, and weighs 3.06 pounds, making it marginally thicker but lighter than Apple’s latest 15-inch MacBook Air.

In vertical orientation, users have the option to link it with Android smartphones through the Lenovo Smart Connect app for file transfers and phone mirroring.

Lenovo provided one image of the ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept, highlighting an island-style keyboard, an expansive trackpad, a raised notch for the webcam, and ports including HDMI, two Thunderbolt ports, and a microSD card slot on the left side.

The complete specifications of the ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept are still a mystery. What sort of screen does it utilize? Which processor powers it? How many rotation cycles can it withstand? And what is its anticipated price?

These queries remain unanswered, but at least we know it exists in some capacity.
