- Lenovo’s new OLED ultrawide gaming laptop has leaked
- It features a horizontal rollable design similar to the ThinkBook’s vertical screen
- It’s expected to be revealed at CES 2026
Portable gaming continues to get better year after year, with handheld gaming PCs and laptops alike advancing. However, PC manufacturer Lenovo is on the verge of taking laptop gaming up another level entirely.
Windows Latest reports that it has got hold of leaked material pertaining to a Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable, a new Windows 11 gaming laptop with an expandable OLED display.
You may recall that Lenovo has made a rollable laptop before, namely the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6. However, the twist with this gaming notebook is that the screen doesn’t expand vertically, but horizontally instead (unfurling on both sides to produce extra screen real-estate).
In other words, the Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable is set to be the world’s first ultrawide OLED gaming laptop when the display is extended.
This is still a rumor of course – all we have is Windows Latest’s word, and some leaked promo photos – but the expectation is that this laptop will be revealed at CES 2026.
With a 21:9 aspect ratio screen, we can expect this gaming laptop to run with a resolution of at least 2560 x 1080, or possibly 3440 x 1440 depending on how big the display is.
As for the spec, Windows Latest claims that this system will be equipped with an Intel Core Ultra processor, but there’s no word on the GPU yet.
Analysis: Lenovo might be starting something big for portable gamers
This is an ambitious gaming laptop design, and it could have the potential to spark a new trend in ultrawide portable gaming.
There are concerns here, though, one of which is obviously pricing. The hardware used (specifically the CPU and GPU) to drive an ultrawide resolution mean that this device is likely to be very expensive, with the expanding screen no doubt commanding a premium, too.
Then there’s the issue of the additional weight of the mechanism for the expanding screen, but hopefully Lenovo can manage to keep the overall bulk of the device within reasonable boundaries. If so, the Legion Pro Rollable could be a game-changer for consumers, especially avid ultrawide fans.
This laptop could achieve the immersion you get from an ultrawide desktop gaming setup and combine it with the portability of a notebook. Furthermore, the screen won’t just be good for gaming, but also for work, as ultrawide displays are ideal for productivity.
As ever, bear in mind that this is just a leak, but if this rollable laptop is inbound soon, it could be a central part of Lenovo’s revelations in January at CES 2026.
