Lenovo’s groundbreaking ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 laptop, with a screen that can be “unrolled” to provide additional screen space, now has a ship date as well as an official price.
Lenovo’s rollable, which we saw at CES 2025 and was named among the Best of CES 2025, will ship on June 19 for $3,499 and up, Lenovo and Intel said Monday.
You can think of the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 as a laptop with a foldable OLED screen — except that the screen doesn’t fold, but unrolls.
While in its compact mode, the Rollable offers a fairly standard 120Hz 400-nit OLED display with 100 percent DCI-P3 color accuracy, measuring 14 inches on the diagonal. Unrolled, the display expands to about 16.7 inches on the diagonal. More importantly, the screen’s aspect ration expands to a portrait mode, allowing you to either use it as one gigantic screen or nestle a pair of smaller landscape windows within its broad expanse.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 is basically designed for road warriors, as an alternative to bringing along a second display in your backpack or carryon. Intel said Monday that the ThinkBook Plus was co-engineered between the two companies. Creating additional space inside the laptop was done by shrinking the circuit board and using a higher-density battery to create the extra space. The screen was rated for 30,000 closings and openings of the lid hinge and 20,000 rolls.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 includes a Core Ultra 7 “Lunar Lake” processor, up to 32GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD, Lenovo said.
