The ThinkPad X1 Fold is launching this fall; Lenovo offers a look at the inside of its first folding laptop

The release of the ThinkPad X1 Fold has been a rather protracted one, with Lenovo having teased its first foldable laptop back in May 2019. Subsequently, Lenovo said that the ThinkPad X1 Fold would be ready in "mid-2020", but that did not transpire.

Come May 2020, it emerged that the device needed more testing. Lenovo did not reveal how long this additional testing would delay the release of the device by, but a leaked roadmap published in April suggested that it may not arrive until Q4 2020 at the earliest.
