Lenovo introduces rollable laptop and AI agent

Redefining how people interact with technology, Lenovo is advancing through rollable laptops, foldable devices and adaptive AI systems that anticipate user needs.

The company is shifting from manufacturing hardware to creating multi-platform systems that adapt seamlessly to workflows instead of relying solely on traditional devices.

Qira, Lenovo’s personal AI super-agent, transfers tasks across devices while maintaining context and history with user permission. It can suggest actions and predict needs, aiming to improve productivity and employee satisfaction, although security and privacy concerns remain significant.

The rollable laptop features a 14-inch screen that expands vertically to 16.7 inches, providing immersive experiences for gaming and content consumption while remaining portable.

Lenovo is also exploring voice-driven tools, including AI Workmate prototypes, allowing users to create presentations and digital content simply through speech.

By combining innovative screen designs with intelligent AI agents, Lenovo aims to create unified ecosystems that prioritise user experience and adaptability instead of focusing solely on device specifications.

The company believes these technologies will gradually become culturally accepted, similar to self-driving cars.
