Lenovo might bring its rollable laptop display to gamers in 2026

At CES 2025, Lenovo showed off a rollable laptop meant to enhance the experience of managing spreadsheets or juggling multiple windows at once. Next year, the company is bringing its futuristic displays to something a little more whimsical.

As reported by Windows Latest, Lenovo is looking to follow up its ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable with a Legion-branded laptop sometime in 2026. The “Legion Pro Rollable” doesn’t just adopt the company’s gaming-focused branding, however; it’s also adopting a more entertainment-friendly design that could appeal to customers who primarily live outside of the boardroom.

The Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable will apparently sport a rolling display that extends from the left and right to stretch out to a 21:9 aspect ratio. Unfortunately, with not much more than a leaked marketing render to work off of, it’s unclear what the display size is prior to expanding its dimensions; considering the built-in number pad, though, this appears to utilize the chassis of a 15 or 16-inch gaming laptop. That might not make it particularly portable, but it’ll certainly be the easiest 21:9 display to carry around on the market today.

Windows Latest does have a couple of other details. Lenovo isn’t swapping to ARM for this laptop, instead relying on a more traditional Intel Core Ultra SoC. It will, of course, run Windows 11 — the Copilot key certainly gives that away — and will all but assuredly pack a gaming-friendly refresh rate of 120Hz or more. Unfortunately, other specs will have to wait for an official announcement.

Maybe this is the gamer within me talking — I’m neither a coder nor a spreadsheet master — but this product feels far more marketable to its main demographic. While taller displays certainly have their place, it’s a relatively niche improvement over any of the more standard 16:10 or 3:2 screens available on the market. In comparison, this Legion Pro Rollable appears to offer far more of a typical gaming laptop experience when discounting the expandable display, retaining a more standard chassis than the ThinkBook ever did.

Of course, its success will really depend on its final price point, and considering Lenovo’s first rollable PC starts at a whopping $3,300, don’t expect next year’s Legion release to be particularly cheap. If last year is any indication, we’ll learn plenty more about this laptop at CES 2026 in just a few weeks.
