My own world of PC gaming feels a little inconsistent. While I have the impressive Lenovo Legion 5 for playing on-the-go, my home setup benefits from a glorious 32:9 ultrawide OLED panel.
Those extra degrees in my field of view really add to the immersion and gameplay — to the point that anything else I play on just feels constrained.
Well, that’s where the Lenovo Legion Pro Rollable concept comes in, which packs a (yep, you guessed it) rollable OLED display that can extend from 16 inches all the way up to 24 with an ultrawide 24:9 aspect ratio.
And after testing it for a while, anytime I return to a traditional gaming laptop, it just feels so constricting. This is a breakthrough that I wish was a real thing I could buy.
Ultrawide wherever you are
Of course I could go into the tech specs here — RTX 5090, Intel Core Ultra 9, all the LPDDR5X RAM and a massive SSD. But the main focus is that display, so let’s talk about it.
It starts as a 16-inch OLED panel running at 240Hz, and the top lid looks pretty damn thick, almost as if its hiding something special here. In particular, a 3-step ultrawide panel that you can adjust to the requirements of the game you’re playing.
So for example, something like a simple card game or titles only, you can keep to that 16:9 aspect ratio. Stage two takes you to 21:9, and then you can go all the way to 24:9 for that uber immersive gameplay.

Say you’ve got a sim racing rig (shout-out to my racers) and you don’t have your tower near you. This is an ideal replacement with that wide screen. Plus, if you really want to establish dominance at a table in a cafe, you can just stretch that panel.
And this is all done with a mechanism that’s been tested for 25,000 expands and contracts to deliver top reliability too.
Outlook
Of course, this is just a concept, but that doesn’t make it any less heart breaking. I want to use this thing in my day-to-day. The gaming and productivity potential is huge for that massive panel.
But alas, it’s only a prototype, and all I can do is sit here and setup a prayer circle that this becomes a real thing. It’s so OP in the best way.
