I used Lenovo’s new auto-opening laptop, and it was absurdly wonderful
Sick of being the loser who needs to use their hands to physically open a laptop? Lenovo's got you.

Lenovo is no stranger to bizarre concept laptops. Just this year, at CES 2024, it developed a fully transparent laptop, complete with a see-through display. It was ludicrous and basically unusable, but still a ton of fun to see in real life. Now, at IFA 2024, Lenovo has yet another concept machine, which it’s calling the Lenovo Auto Twist AI PC — and I got to try it out.
As its name suggests, the Auto Twist AI PC automatically twists. There’s a swivel hinge connecting the keyboard deck to the display that allows you to raise and twist the screen in lots of different directions. But you don’t need to use your hands, because an AI assistant can move the hinge for you. Yes, you are essentially telling your laptop to open and close, and it responds in kind. Practical? No. Fun as hell? Yes.
