Lenovo Legion Rollable is a gaming laptop with a display that expands horizontally (leaks)

This year Lenovo launched the first laptop with a rollable display that expands to give users more screen space when they need it and retracts when they don’t, allowing the company to cram a big screen into a compact laptop.

Now it looks like the company is planning to launch its second rollable. But this time instead of a business-friendly laptop with a screen that extends upward, the company seems to be working on a gaming laptop with a screen that extends horizontally.

Lenovo’s first rollable laptop is the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable. It’s basically a 14 inch laptop with a flexible OLED display that extends upward until it measures 16.7 inches diagonally, giving you 150% more total pixels.

According to leaked promotional materials published by Windows Latest, Lenovo’s next rollable will be the Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable, which will be a gaming laptop with a screen that extends horizontally to give you a 21:9 aspect ratio display when fully unrolled. It’s expected to be powered by an unspecified Intel Core Ultra processor.

That’s honestly about all we know so far, but based on the images it looks like the notebook will have a more traditional 16:9 or 16:10 display when the screen is retracted. This allows the company to provide the laptop with an ultrawide display without dramatically increasing the overall size of the notebook.

While I’ve recently become a fan of vertically-stacked displays for productivity, I can see why Lenovo would want to try out a screen that expands horizontally on a gaming laptop designed for entertainment. The wider angle display would be great for movies and games that support ultrawide monitors. It could also come in handy for plenty of non-gaming applications such as video editing, or multitasking, giving you something closer to a dual-screen experience on a laptop with just a single display.

Just don’t expect this laptop to be cheap: The ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable sells for $3299. It’s likely that a Lenovo Legion-branded gaming laptop with a rollable display will cost eve more for a few reasons.

For one thing Lenovo will likely have to factor in the cost of a discrete GPU. For another, RAM prices are through the roof right now, so I’m expecting most laptops announced in early 2026 to have higher price tags than existing models. And one difference between vertical and horizontal rollables is that vertical screens only need to extend at one point, while a horizontal screen will extend at two: both the left and right parts of the display extend outward, which means that there will be more moving parts in the Legion Pro Rollable.

More details about Lenovo’s next rollable laptop will likely be announced during CES 2026 in January.
