- Lenovo Thinkbook Vertiflex is a conceptual portable computer with 14 -inch rotating screen
- It has a thin ultra -adaptable design and offers a smart Connect smartphone settings
- Who will attract and how lasting is the rotary hinge, they are still unknowns for now
Lenovo has confirmed that Thinkbook Vertiflex, previously known under the Codename Pivo project, is real.
It is shown for the first time at the end of August 2025 in X by the renowned death Evan Blass, the conceptual laptop was officially revealed in IFA 2025 in Berlin and is as crazy as we expected.
The Thinkbook Vertiflex presents a 14 -inch screen that rotates independently of the lid. This mechanism allows the device to change between horizontal and vertical orientations.
Ultra -advertible
Vertical mode, Lenovo suggests that the commercial laptop could be useful to display and write code, read documents and long web pages, or execute multiple windows next to the other.
The device is thin to only 17.9 mm and weighs 1.39 kg, which makes one of the lightest laptops.
A vertical orientation is not new in the world of external monitors, but it is much less common on a laptop.
Lenovo sees it as a productivity enhancer for users that would benefit from a higher screen.
The rotating hinge system is interesting, and although I can see how inevitable questions arise about its long -term durability.
Lenovo also announced Smart Connect, a feature that links a user’s smartphone with Vertiflex.
When the screen is in vertical orientation, the tied phone can share files or reflect its screen directly on the portable computer.
This suggests that the company sees the device as more than a simple curiosity, although the real audience for such design is a little less clear.
Conceptual laptop computers have a mixed history, and many never reach the market, although some, such as the Lenovo Roller Thought Book, finally did.
The Vertiflex fits that unusual and unproven category, where it will definitely attract a narrow group of professionals, but general buyers will have difficulty understanding the point, especially if it comes with a high price.
However, it certainly applaud Lenovo’s will to experiment, even if the practical benefits of the thoughbook vertifix rotating screen remain open to debate.
