The new concept laptop will also feature Lenovo’s signature ThinkPad pointing stick and will mostly be controlled using a stylus and voice commands. Lenovo says this concept would be achieved through “advanced materials” and “new screen technologies.”

Further, the laptop concept will also be "always connected, always on," and would rely on what sounds like artificial intelligence to feed you information you need to know.
However, the biggest challenge for the revolutionary new laptop is the bendable display technology, which is still is at its initial stage and may not have workable product any time soon.
