The new Lenovo ThinkBook VertiFlex laptop has a 14-inch display inside of an ultra-slim 17.9mm body that weighs only 1.39kg, with the display rotating around depending on how you want to use it. This provides users with the ability to tweak between Portrait and Landscape viewing modes, without having to move the laptop around.

This is great for someone who uses split-screen multitasking, reviewing code, document viewing and writing, and more. Lenovo's new ThinkBook VertiFlex can also tether to your smartphone using Lenovo Smart Connect, so that you get a huge display as a phone mirror (in portrait and all). This is just a concept for now, with Lenovo not clear on whether the VertiFlex laptop would make it to the market.
