Reviews for the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen6 Rollable
Lenovo has had some interesting laptop designs including ones with E-Ink, folding tablets, and dual-boot detachables with both x86 and ARM processors. The ThinkBook Plus Rollable, however, definitely takes the cake for being the most useful and practical thus far.

Companies keep trying to find ways to make laptop screens bigger without expanding the size of the laptop itself. We’ve seen and tested our fair share of multi-display bolt-ons, like the Xebec Snap, the Aura Triple Laptop Display, or Lenovo’s separate clip-on concept monitor. When you lay out the long line of failures, Lenovo’s ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable is the best attempt at extended screens yet. If it weren’t for the annoying software and compatibility issues, I would be left with a black hole where the money in my wallet used to be. The only thing that could fill that hole would be the tenuous sense of optimism that the screen or rolling mechanism would continue working for months or years down the road. I could only keep that upbeat attitude going for so long. The thought of my $3,300 laptop breaking is enough to have me roll up on my back with my legs and arms as erect as the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable, like a cockroach about to croak.

Intel Arc 140V: A pretty fast integrated graphics adapter that higher-end Intel Lunar Lake family processors employ. This is a direct successor to the Arc 8; it can drive three SUHD 4320p monitors simultaneously via HDMI 2.1, eDP 1.5 and DP 2.1. With the 140V, all 2023 and 2024 games are playable at 1080p on low graphics settings.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
