The device stands out thanks to its motorized hinge system. A built-in camera paired with AI tracks the user’s face and position in real time. The display then adjusts smoothly—pivoting side to side or tilting—to keep the screen facing you directly. This works during video calls, presentations, or when people share the view, so no manual repositioning is needed.
Lenovo designed the feature mainly for business users. It helps during meetings where someone stands up, walks around, or collaborates with colleagues. The laptop can also open and close its lid on its own when powered on or off, and it responds to voice commands through an AI assistant called “Tiko.” In one demo mode, animated eyes show up on screen and react to spoken instructions, giving the device a more interactive feel.
The hardware includes a 14-inch OLED touchscreen with high resolution and stylus support. It runs on an Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processor (from the Panther Lake family in some reports), stays under 1.5 kg in weight, and packs a 75Wh battery for extended use. Ports cover multiple USB-C options for connectivity.
Lenovo first showed similar ideas as concepts years ago, but this version moves from prototype to actual product. The company announced it at CES 2026 on January 6, drawing attention from attendees who tested the tracking in person.

Pricing and availability The ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist carries a starting price of $1,649. Sales begin in June 2026.
This launch fits Lenovo’s pattern of pushing boundaries in laptop design, especially for business settings where small conveniences matter. While some may see the rotating mechanism as a novelty, others view it as a practical step for hands-free work.
