- Lenovo is launching its rollable concept to consumers in the form of ThinkBook Plus Gen 6.
- The laptop features a 400 nit, 120Hz, rollable OLED display.
- When unrolled, it becomes a massive 16.7-inch unit giving users twice the screen space.
Out of all the laptop manufacturers, one of the brands that we look forward to the most for displaying quirky yet cool technology is Lenovo. Devices like the ThinkPad X1 Fold to dual screen Yoga laptop, and a laptop with a rollable screen, they’ve done it all. Lenovo’s latest Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 is by far the best one. And it looks like consumers may actually get to own one soon.
Lenovo’s Rollable concept laptop was showcased at CES 2025, and it’s launching as the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 soon. Upon opening the lid, it looks like any other 14-inch machine with a 2K resolution. But upon pressing a dedicated key, the Rollable screen unrolls and becomes this giant wide tablet-like aspect ratio with a higher resolution of 2000 x 2350 . The display is a 120Hz unit with 400 nits of brightness and covers 100% of DCI-P3 gamut .

The laptop uses a flexible OLED display, which when unrolled completely, becomes a massive 16.7-inch unit. Lenovo claims it gives users an additional 50% screen space. And that’s probably accurate, considering the extended screen could easily measure up to two 14-inch displays stacked on top of each other. The laptop is 19.9mm thin and weighs 1.7kg.
The rollable mechanism is rated to last for up to 20,000 rolls which isn’t too bad. The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 is a Copilot+ PC thanks to the Core Ultra processors inside. Besides, it also features two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports and Wi-Fi 7. Despite the rollable display, the firm has managed to put a respectable 66 Wh battery.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 will be available starting June 2025 for an asking price of $3,499. Now, as absurd as that price may look, it’s what you usually pay for first gen concepts made into products. And well, it’s at least more useful than some other gadgets that lack the true “ Vision ” and cost just as much.

- Movano is coming out with their new EvieAI coming to their smart rings.
- It is post-trained on 100,000 medical journals, including FDA-approved content cross-referenced from Harvard, UCLA, and Mayo Clinic.
- The AI chatbot achieves high accuracy rates and doesn’t provide answers to unknown topics.
Nearly every device at CES has AI labeled all over it, given its flexibility of use and marketability. But its incoherence and the room for hallucinations make it a poor choice for medical advice. So, companies stray away from it because of the major repercussions it can have on someone’s health and life. But smart ring maker Movano is coming out with their new health and wellness LLM called EvieAI, offering more reliable medical advice.

So EvieAI will only be pulling its information from this data set reducing its chances of hallucinations. The results speak for themselves as the answers from the AI chatbot are 99% accurate. That’s also because EvieAI confirms whether your query tracks with the Movano’s training data. The AI will also follow industry-standard encryption methods. Since chats are deleted periodically, no one will be able to track them back to the users.
Movano’s CEO John Mastrototaro also mentioned that the AI doesn’t shy away from saying no. If you ask anything related to a topic it hasn’t been trained upon, “it’s not going to tell you because it doesn’t have any information about that” according to Mostratotaro. He further added, “I think that it’s okay to say no if you don’t know the answer to something,”
Movano has recently re-released their Evie Ring to customers which addresses feedback on sleep data and heart rate accuracy. The company has also received FDA clearance for the EvieMED ring which is aimed at remote monitoring and clinical trials of patients. The beta version of the EvieAI will be rolling out starting January 8th to current Evie Ring users in their companion app.
Movano is trying to do something that can change the way people perceive AI. Training their LLM on just medical journals will for sure improve the accuracy of results, and they are going to be better than other general AI models. However, even Doctors coincide with each other on the recent development of new techniques and technologies. So its accuracy and how correct it stands with its answers will be interesting to see.
