Lenovo in Brief — Swan, Vibe and Record Quarter

Lenovo in brief - Swan, Vibe and a record quarter

The last few days have brought a real avalanche of news from the world of Lenovo - from a futuristic ThinkBook with a sliding OLED screen, through a colourful answer to the MacBook Neo, to record financial results confirming that the Chinese giant is in the best shape in its history. Find out what is happening in the Lenovo ecosystem and which models are worth keeping an eye on in the coming weeks.

Project Swan: ThinkBook with a rollable OLED screen widens the workspace

Lenovo has officially presented a project called "Swan", which will belong to the ThinkBook series and will be equipped with a flexible OLED display that extends horizontally. When closed, the device looks like a standard ThinkBook - with a centrally placed camera in the top bezel and distinctive branding on the palmrest - but once unfolded it reveals a much wider workspace, similar to an ultrawide monitor.

This is not the first time Lenovo has experimented with rollable panels. In early 2025 the company presented the ThinkBook Plus Rollable, which in its rolled-up mode offers 14 inches and a resolution of 2000 √ó 1600 px (5:4 aspect ratio), and when unrolled grows to 16.7 inches with a resolution of 2000 √ó 2350 px in an 8:9 aspect ratio. Project Swan is the next step in this direction - this time the screen slides out horizontally, which opens up entirely new possibilities for people working with multiple windows or spreadsheets.

The prototype is equipped with two USB-C ports on the left side. Detailed specifications - processor, RAM, price and release date - have not yet been officially confirmed. The project does, however, have a clear goal: to show that business laptops can offer adaptable screen space without the need to carry external monitors. Lenovo consistently positions innovative screens as a feature that sets the ThinkBook series apart from the competition.

From an artistic point of view, "Swan" combines an organic, flowing form with technological innovation - its silhouette is meant to evolve visually like a growing swan, which is a deliberate departure from the rectangular, conservative shapes dominating the business laptop segment.

IdeaPad Vibe: Lenovo's colourful answer to the MacBook Neo

The launch of the Apple MacBook Neo has clearly electrified the market for Windows 11 laptops - and Lenovo has responded with the IdeaPad Vibe project. Leaked photos published by Windows Latest show a device available in seven colour variants, including yellow, green and pink. This is a direct nod to the aesthetics of the MacBook Neo and a clear signal of which market segment Lenovo is targeting.

However, the IdeaPad Vibe has an advantage where the MacBook Neo clearly falls short - in its selection of ports. Lenovo has proposed two USB-A connectors, two USB-C, HDMI, a headphone jack and a microSD card slot. By comparison, the MacBook Neo offers only two USB-C ports and an audio jack. The Vibe will also get a Copilot key, which Apple naturally does not include in its products.

The laptop will be available in two processor variants: with a Snapdragon chip (for people who value mobility and battery life) and with an AMD processor (a traditional approach with a wider software base). This duality allows Lenovo to target a broader audience than Apple's uniform offering.

TechRadar analysts point out, however, that despite better functionality Lenovo will struggle to beat Apple on price. The MacBook Neo is priced very aggressively, and the launch of Intel Wildcat Lake - new chips meant to compete with Apple's - shows that the entire Windows industry is mobilising under the influence of this single product.

Legion 7i Gen 10 with OLED: a portable mid-range gaming laptop that performs above its price

Ultrabookreview has published a detailed review of the tenth-generation Lenovo Legion 7i - a model that is called the 7i in North America and sold as the Legion 7 in other markets. The laptop is equipped with a 16-inch OLED panel, an Intel Core Ultra HX processor and a mid-range graphics card from the RTX 5000 family. The whole thing weighs less than 2 kilograms, which makes it one of the most portable premium gaming offerings from Lenovo.

The reviewer stresses that the Legion 7i Gen 10 is not a successor to the Legion Pro 7i - it is something different. Lenovo deliberately paired a powerful processor with a mid-class graphics card, prioritising portability at the expense of absolute computing power. The result? The device competes with the Razer Blade 16 and the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16, while offering a clean, elegant design available primarily in the Glacier White colour.

The selection of ports and connectors was rated as adequate - with no obvious shortcomings for a typical gamer. The Legion 7i Gen 10 is a proposition for people who need a laptop they can regularly take out of the house, without giving up an OLED screen and decent gaming performance.

Yoga 7a 2-in-1 with Ryzen AI 400: a convertible ultrabook on new AMD hardware

Ultrabookreview has also published a review of the 2026 Lenovo Yoga 7a 2-in-1 - a 14-inch convertible powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 400 processor (Gorgon Point). It is a mainstream model from the 2-in-1 line, sold in Europe as the Yoga 7 2-in-1. Until now Lenovo has offered this series mainly in an Intel variant (Yoga 7i), and the AMD variant - the Yoga 7a - is a relatively new proposition.

The screen is a 14-inch OLED panel with 2K resolution (1920 √ó 1200 px), a 16:10 aspect ratio, a matte coating and touch support. The 60 Hz refresh rate may be a sticking point for demanding users, but in everyday use of a convertible such a frequency is perfectly sufficient.

The review compares the Ryzen AI 7 445 with the Intel Core Ultra 7 355 variant - the two processors represent different design philosophies. AMD focuses on integrated AI capabilities while maintaining good multi-core performance, whereas Intel offers a well-trodden path of compatibility. The review also explains why the Yoga 9i 2-in-1 is significantly more expensive than the 7a - the premium comes from a higher-grade chassis, a better audio system and additional features.

Lenovo LOQ for 3299 PLN and the ThinkPad T14 in user opinions

For anyone looking for a budget gaming laptop, here is some important news. The Lenovo LOQ 15AHP10 has appeared on promotion at Media Expert for 3299 PLN (the offer is valid until 18 August or until the pool of codes runs out). The laptop offers an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 with 8 GB of GDDR7 and an impressive TGP of 100 W, which for this price segment is a truly rare configuration.

Under the hood is a 6-core AMD Ryzen 5 220 processor, supported by 16 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM (expandable to 32 GB) and a 512 GB PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD. The screen is a 15.6-inch IPS panel with a matte coating, Full HD resolution, a 144 Hz refresh rate and 300 nits of brightness. Connectivity is provided by Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, and the USB-C port supports DisplayPort and Power Delivery.

Meanwhile, on Reddit the community of ThinkPad enthusiasts is buzzing with positive emotions. User capofernando showed off a ThinkPad T14 G1 AMD as the best laptop in his collection - he praises the sharp screen and the exemplary stability of Loc-os Linux 24. In turn, /u/hxvrlm describes his first week with the T14 as a revelation: he uses the laptop for films, email, Discord and Factorio, and is delighted with the build quality and reliability of the device. Both voices confirm that the T14 series is consistently building a reputation as solid, long-term hardware.

Lenovo's record quarter and worrying memory price forecasts

Lenovo has published its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026/27 and they are historic - the company achieved the highest quarterly revenue in its entire history. It is also the strongest quarterly growth in five years. Behind the success is the so-called hybrid AI strategy, which permeates all segments of the business - from consumer laptops to solutions for enterprises and data centres.

These results did not come out of nowhere: for several years Lenovo has consistently invested in AI integration at the hardware and software level, and the market clearly rewards this approach. Revenue growth is particularly visible in the enterprise infrastructure segment, where demand for AI solutions is enormous.

However, alongside the great results there are worrying signals for buyers. At the ISC 2026 conference in Germany, Lenovo announced that RAM prices will probably never return to pre-crisis levels - the company forecasts a "new normal" from 2030, when increased chip production (planned from 2028) will not cause prices to fall back to previous levels. Microsoft confirms these concerns: memory and storage costs have already risen by more than 250%, which has translated into price increases for Xbox consoles. Analysts predict another doubling of memory prices within just a year - bad news for consumers planning to buy new hardware.

Lenovo Lecoo Mini tablet - interesting, but for whom?

Finally, a short overview of tablet news. Lenovo is adding the Lecoo Mini to its range - a device that, according to the Tabletowo editors, raises quite a few questions about the point of its existence. The reviewer openly admits that it is not entirely clear who the tablet is aimed at and what specific problem it is meant to solve.

Lenovo Lecoo is a satellite brand operating in the lower price segment and aimed at more casual users. The Mini, as the name suggests, focuses on compactness - however, in the world of tablets, compactness without a clear price or functional advantage is rarely enough to win the market. Tabletowo points out that the product's positioning is unclear, which may make it harder for consumers to accept.

It is an interesting case from the point of view of product strategy: on the one hand Lenovo is conducting ambitious experiments with rollable OLED screens and colourful convertibles, and on the other it is introducing tablets whose market purpose raises doubts even among experienced reviewers. We will see how the Lecoo Mini fares on the market after its full launch.
