    To the people who said that laptops are already foldable, the title as of writing says “first foldable SCREEN laptop.”

      Serves really no purpose and solves no problem

    looks cool but also worthless. Laptops can already fold and doesn’t look like a 3DS when closed

    • Bryan Miller

      Exactly and you don’t have buy a keyboard separately lol

    I love the concept but the price really needs to come down to be considered as doable

      Same as a surface duo or galaxy fold, needs to get like 40% cheaper

  6. Paula Deem Reynolds

    $2500??? I’ll stick with my Lenovo 17 in laptop (desktop) until that price comes way down!

    This is a stupid product, windows is a terrible tablet experience and it seems like a terrible laptop experience since you lose half of the screen real state because let’s be honest, the on screen keyboard on windows also suck. If you don’t have a flat surface to place this frankenstein of a product then its useless. It seems to be a mediocre laptop and a mediocre tablet, with that price you can get a good tablet and a good laptop and maybe save some money.

    That works for me. Lenovo’s Yoga Book with Halo keyboard was superb. I think this will be quite good. Thanks for the video.

    I agree OLED display are costlier but 2500$ is to much for the laptop

    Rather have a dual booting device or just wait for apples A16 chip in two years when it will be powerful enough to run macOS bigsur and could work as a desktop when connected to a tv or monitor

    What’s missing from your video is an EXPLANATION for why this isn’t a practical substitute for a standard laptop. You appear the assume that the viewer will intuit why it’s not practical. Show why it’s not a practical alternative, don’t just say it isn’t. You somehow forgot to include the point of doing the video. Were I you, I’d take this down and start over. The problem is that the device looks like a practical alternative. There’s nothing visually that would appear to not make it a competitor with standard laptops. So, you have to be explicit and describe what it is that makes it impractical.

    make it half the thickness and half the price, with reasonable computing power, and I can see it taking off

    You mention apple 3 times throughout the video but not once Lenovo. Hmmmm

    That actually looks cool! Apple will probably adapt that technology in 2030 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    I’ll stick with a laptop and fire tablet. Better specs and at least $1K cheaper

    1:34 that doesn’t look like a mini iMac at all haha. Apple’s got nothing on this! (Writing this as I’m getting an iMac delivered to my place tonight ha)

    Just got mine today, this thing is definitely slick but nowhere near practical at the price.

    Nifty product, but Windows 10 is not made for a tablet experience.

    didnt ASUS do 2 screen laptop?
    which WORKS just like this in practice

  33. Javier Arroyo

    Not worth the 2400 bucks

  34. Lucan Sanchez

    This new think pad fold should be the largest size available nintendo switch the smallest should be 6 inch unfolded. Its the only thing I can think of that would make such a big folding device useful.

  35. James McDonald

    December 3, 2020 at 11:10 am

    If a screen folds, it’s plastic. If it’s plastic you can scratch it with even your fingernail.

    Rubbish. Janky, gimmicky rubbish.

    I bought this and received it 4 weeks ago. I am returning it because it stopped powering up and having big time problems getting them send me a return label. I suggest everyone wait until they really get this thing ready for public consumption. I am soooo disappointed, because this device I thought would really help me productive with business things I needed to get done!

    If it worked with a distro, it would be kind of cool. I don’t think it would let you install one.

    Can that hideous leather(?) back removed? Also makes this double the width…

  55. DJ THINK realdjthink

    i would like to see how Photoshop and Illustrator handle the split screen portion, if there are some special exclusive features for the X1 Fold with those softwares

  56. DJ THINK realdjthink

    December 4, 2020 at 11:36 pm

    like for Photoshop or Illustrator there could be a fast toggle between zooming to a 100 pct canvas and zooming out to 50 pct size canvas for assisting the creation process for artwork

    Its an overly inflated price tag for everything it has to offer.

    • Alex McCaffrey

      The first generation iPhone cost significantly more than any other phone on the market at the time.

  59. Jimi Bard

    December 5, 2020 at 1:42 am

    This is brilliant. Microsoft should come up with this kind of version of their surface products

    • Alex McCaffrey

      December 5, 2020 at 2:58 am

      They actually did. It’s almost a copy of the Surface Neo, right down to the keyboard. That was going to run the foldable orientated Windows 10X.

  60. psulion31

    December 5, 2020 at 1:59 am

    Excellent! This is innovation

  61. Dody Widodo

    I’ll just wait for surface neo

  62. Alex McCaffrey

    Such a shame its not ARM. Intel = Fans. Urgh.

  63. Alex McCaffrey

    December 5, 2020 at 2:47 am

    It’s what the Surface Neo would’ve been. Almost the same form factor, right down to the keyboard.

  66. DJ THINK realdjthink

    December 5, 2020 at 6:36 am

    another cool idea for photoshop and illustrator would be that you draw on one half of the open screen and click an option in the software to mirror, and then close the tablet and open it again and voila it is a mirrored drawing, sort of like applying a stamp on the 2nd half of the screen.

  67. Michael Alves da Silva

    December 5, 2020 at 7:07 am

    and beautiful but Lenovo does not update the phones I had a Lenovo phab 2 plus phablet I think it was released in 2016 and Lenovo abandoned the Lenovo updates and trash

  68. Michael Alves da Silva

    December 5, 2020 at 7:09 am

    Lenovo doesn’t know how to make phones and trash

  69. JuLi303

    December 5, 2020 at 8:09 am

    If it works with a stylus, I actually see a lot of potential for it. Having your script on the upper part of the screen and your notes on the lower part during a lecture would be a very big reason for me to buy it

  70. Judd Otto

  73. Pulkit Sharma

    December 5, 2020 at 4:47 pm

    Interesting, as it’s one of a kind.
    Why?
    Because it’s a compromised impractical in-betweener. Exists, just for the sake of it.

  74. ThisNoName

    December 5, 2020 at 4:52 pm

    Fugly unnecessary. Hold you collective breath for Oppo X, sounds like a real game changer

    Sucks. …..transparent screens!!!!

  76. Calvito Bonito

    I don’t care if it folds is it still slow af??? because windows laptops these days are not very useful 🙄

    *hears price*

    I’ll pass…

  83. Dee Bev

    Ok so it is very apparent that the next stage of tech if foldable and we are trying to see where it is useful.

  84. Mr. America

    December 6, 2020 at 7:09 pm

    Folding devices are a fad, what’s wrong with a tablet or laptop???

  85. Mr. America

    December 6, 2020 at 7:10 pm

    I have an idea, when it unfolds it has a keyboard on one side instead of more screen, oh wait that’s a laptop

  86. Mr. America

    December 6, 2020 at 7:12 pm

    Let’s be real, this is a stupid and impractical device

    • Luis C. R.

      December 8, 2020 at 2:41 pm

      But, only if you’re retired… because, I mean if you have an active lifestyle it works perfectly to carry it around with you.

  87. John Gyver

    December 6, 2020 at 7:20 pm

    Is the screen as easily scratched as in foldable phones?

  88. Matin Far

    December 6, 2020 at 9:18 pm

    It’s a folding tablet not a laptop. Laptops already fold -_-

  89. k k

    Looks dope , in time it will become very popular once the price is dropped

    $2800 voor a 13” tablet with a keyboard and bendable screen? Apple seems dirt cheap considering this…

  92. PianoMan 2018

    December 7, 2020 at 6:49 am

    For $2499, it had better be my main LT!

    the keyboard is disgustingly small.. if only it is a full sized keyboard
