1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:07,520
Every laptop is so similar these days, but I'm here at Lenovo's really busy

2
00:00:05,759 --> 00:00:12,880
booth. So, they can reveal the secret that they've been sitting on, the Legion

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:15,280
Pro rollable. In its heart, it's pretty

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:21,119
damn similar to a Legion 9 Pro with up to a Core Ultra 9275HX

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:25,199
processor and a mobile 1590, except for this uh one little extra thing that, you

6
00:00:23,279 --> 00:00:32,640
know, kind of makes it special. Just freaking look at it. It expands from

7
00:00:27,599 --> 00:00:34,880
16x10 to 21x9 to 24x9 and it only adds a

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:39,200
couple hundred g to the total weight and maybe like a centimeter to the screen

9
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:43,360
thickness. Honestly, this is really cool and a great implementation of this tech

10
00:00:40,879 --> 00:00:48,559
that we've seen. The just gets rolled in and kind of disappears. Sadly, we can't

11
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:52,239
actually game on this laptop today, but it's pretty easy to imagine some sweet

12
00:00:50,559 --> 00:00:57,680
gaming uses that this flexibility affords us. 21 by9 is more and more

13
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:01,760
common and 24 by9 is pretty darn close to anamorphic widescreen. So you can

14
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:07,680
imagine the theater-like experience you're going to have watching movies on this bad boy. The aim on the final

15
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:12,640
product is to hit a 240 Hz refresh rate on this OLED screen. Although they might

16
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:15,040
have to fall back on 165 Hz, but this

17
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:18,960
concept is currently locked at 60 Hz. And that's because this is being shown

18
00:01:16,479 --> 00:01:22,720
off mostly as a prototype, which is Lenovo trying to gauge interest. And if

19
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,280
the crowds that have been forming around this thing are anything to go by, people

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,640
are very interested in this thing. Do you want this thing? Let us know in the

21
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:34,400
comments below. I guess how much you want it is just going to depend on

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,680
price, which Lenovo doesn't even know yet cuz they're still collecting

23
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:41,759
feedback at this stage. And although you can see the mechanism for this is really

24
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:46,240
impressive, there's obviously still some hints to work out. like the seam you can

25
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,600
see when you're at an off angle and uh I've noticed some scratching or some

26
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,079
lines that are forming on the display as it's been going in and out. Their aim is

27
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:58,880
to have about 25,000 uh expansions built in as a durability

28
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,920
with the aim of going higher if possible. And I've been told that the

29
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:06,560
earliest that we could see this thing on the market is 2027. So they have a lot

30
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,479
of time to figure out these kinks. Another kind of neat product that you'll

31
00:02:08,239 --> 00:02:15,200
want to set a reminder for about a year is this, the AI frame gaming display.

32
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,200
It's another prototype. So, this is an LCD. It might not end up being LCD, but

33
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:23,120
the thing that makes it special is the AI processor built in that's supposed to

34
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,560
help you in different situations in games. It's supposed to know what you

35
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:30,160
need, check your performance. What we're looking at here is Dota 2, and mini map

36
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:33,840
awareness is obviously a big issue for a lot of people. So, why not expand it,

37
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:40,080
make it giant, give it a little AI upscale? You know what I'm talking about, brother. This is uh it's all

38
00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:44,000
right. It's like a a really fancy pictureand picture mode. Um but I can

39
00:02:42,239 --> 00:02:46,480
see some people out there being really excited about this. [music] Over here we

40
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:53,680
have something that a lot of you students out here might be very interested. The Legion 7A and the Legion

41
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:57,440
5i. These are more of a hybrid use laptop that are designed for performance

42
00:02:55,519 --> 00:03:01,200
but also to stay unplugged throughout the whole day and you can make it home

43
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:05,040
and still be gaming or do your schoolwork if you're a responsible

44
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,959
person. I don't think so. The big improvements for the 7i over last year

45
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:13,920
is this refreshed frame that took about 10% of the total weight, including the

46
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:17,920
shaved hinges that make it that the butt is a lot less big. They've also added

47
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:23,200
two upfiring speakers to the two downfiring one. And this one supports up

48
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:25,120
to 100 watt USBC PD fast charging. So

49
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:29,760
yet you can top it up using just a power brick that you can use for all your

50
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:32,239
devices. I freaking love USBC. You know

51
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:35,840
what else I love? Three overtheair updates for the Legion glasses. It's

52
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:39,280
going to have a 3D update just for free over the air. It's freaking awesome. I

53
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:44,720
love it. You know what else? I love telling you about our sponsor Dbrand

54
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:48,959
because [laughter] they saved my what? I don't know if you know this, but I live

55
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:52,879
on sponsorships. And when our previous sponsor backed out, I didn't know what I

56
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:57,360
was going to do with myself. You know what I did? I bucked up. I went to my

57
00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:02,000
sponsor droppedout.com and I looked at overpriced stickers, phone cases, kill

58
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:06,799
switches, doodads that don't make any sense and I bought some because if I buy

59
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:13,040
them, they'll have money to sponsor me so that I have money to buy their stuff.

60
00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:16,799
Next up, we're stretching over to the yoga area where Lenovo is doing its

61
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:22,560
damnest and make me forget all about Apple. Here we've got the Slim 7 Ultra

62
00:04:20,239 --> 00:04:25,840
Edition World Cup edition. I've never seen two editions in one title. But

63
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:32,400
here's the good news. You can get it with either the Core Ultra 7 258D or

64
00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:35,520
256D up to 12x cores and this really

65
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:39,440
nice soft coating and haptic trackpad

66
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:42,240
and a 14in 2.8K 120 Hz OLED screen and

67
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:46,639
all in a really portable sub1 kg package. This is something that I

68
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,479
actually would really like to put in my backpack instead of the stupid one I

69
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:55,520
have already. The rep was telling me that versus last gen, we're seeing about

70
00:04:52,639 --> 00:04:58,960
an 8watt TDP bump. That's because we've got the newer processors. These are

71
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:03,680
Panther Lake ones. And so, uh, this is no slouch. This was playing AI at full

72
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:08,560
2.8K. Uh, and it wasn't even challenging the processor at all. This is, man,

73
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:12,960
laptops have come a long way. I like this thing. On laptops this portable, I

74
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,919
always expect the worst when it comes to their keyboards, but this one has a fair

75
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:21,039
amount of travel. I actually think I could get really used to this. This is a

76
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:24,880
beautiful little laptop. Wow. But if I'm being totally honest, the thing I'm most

77
00:05:23,039 --> 00:05:28,800
excited about is something that it doesn't seem like a lot of other people

78
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:34,800
are paying attention to, and that's the Lenovo Yoga Mini PC. Apparently, this

79
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:38,720
category has shown three digits of percentage gross over the last year, and

80
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:42,639
that's obviously because the Mac Mini has been such a big success. And I think

81
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:46,720
Lenovo has a pretty cool product on their hand that could compete with it.

82
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:50,479
It starts at $700. Although, like the Apple products it's competing with, the

83
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:55,919
one you really want is going to cost a little bit more. But it can come with a

84
00:05:53,039 --> 00:06:02,320
16 core Ultra X7. God, these processor names are crazy. But you can get a 16

85
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:04,720
core Ultra X7 358H with 12 XC cores of

86
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:10,479
graphics processing, 32 gigs of LP DDR5X, up to a two TB PCI SSD. This

87
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:14,160
thing is no slouch. You might not be taking this thing for a gaming run, but

88
00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:18,639
you could. I think this might actually be something a lot of you want, just

89
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:22,000
like I know you want more CES coverage. There's so much to see here.
