In summary:
- PCWorld reports on Lenovo’s Legion Go Fold Concept, a bizarre multi-purpose device featuring an 11.6-inch POLED screen that folds into a 7.7-inch display.
- The innovative concept combines laptop, handheld gaming device, and PC tablet functionality with detachable controllers and a separate keyboard.
- Despite using an older Core Ultra Series 2 chip with 32GB RAM, the versatile device blurs traditional category lines, though pricing and availability remain unknown.
Lenovo has become synonymous with unveiling concept devices, many of which eventually arrive in the market. But Lenovo’s latest is truly bizarre: a folding tablet which doubles both as a laptop and a handheld gaming display with accompanying controllers.
It truly looks like something a Lenovo designer would Photoshop and leak as a joke, but WindowsLatest claims that the new Legion Go Fold Concept the real deal, and will be formally announced to the world this coming Monday at the MWC show in Barcelona.
The Legion Go Fold Concept is built around a foldable 11.6-inch POLED (plastic OLED) which folds down into a 7.7-inch screen. The interesting angle is that the Legion Go Fold Concept can apparently be used in as a gaming device in either configuration: as a compact, folded handheld, or in what is apparently known as Horizon Full Screen Mode (above), which attaches the handheld controllers on either side of the display just like something like a Microsoft Surface Pro.
That’s an apt comparison, as Lenovo will apparently also ship the Legion Go Fold Concept with a a hard, separate keyboard that the tablet can be docked into (along with a folding support) to allow it to work as a traditional PC tablet. One of the handheld controllers can double as a mouse.
WindowsLatest says that the tablet will forgo Intel’s latest Panther Lake processors (boo!) for an older Core Ultra Series 2 (Lunar Lake) chip instead, and that the battery is disappointing. Lenovo has (at least for now) bundled a ton of memory inside of it — 32GB — which is good news in a world of memory shortages.
We’ve seen some weird concepts before that haven’t come to market (yet), like the Smart Motion Concept stand that positions itself. Lenovo has also wowed us at CES 2026 with a number of concepts that have made it to market, like new iterations of the ThinkBook Rollable concept that expanded the display up and out. But my shelves have also included less successful launches like its AR debut, Marvel Dimension of Heroes, too. Which category will the Legion Go Fold Concept end up in?
Whether the Legion Go Fold Concept will ever come to market, or what it will be sold for, is completely unknown. It’s just Lenovo’s track record for showing off what its designers are cooking up in their studios which makes us believe that we’ll see this sometime soon.
