Lenovo MWC 2026 Highlights: New Laptops, Legion Go Fold Concept, Think Series Updates & More

Lenovo introduced a lot of products at MWC 2026 last week, ranging from new laptops to new concept hardware, covering consumer, gaming, and commercial segments; the announcements span the Yoga, IdeaPad, Legion, ThinkPad and ThinkBook range – and here’s the highlights.

Concept Devices

First up, the Yoga Book Pro 3D Concept is, in Lenovo’s words, “designed to let digital content creators work directly in three dimensions without additional equipment thanks to its glasses-free 3D display.” We have no shortage of 3D display concepts in the past year or two, so consider this one the latest to be added into that list. This concept is largely based on the existing Yoga 9i, meaning it’s got a secondary display located on where the keyboard is originally located.

The second concept is the ThinkBook Modular AI PC Concept, which has some similarities to the Framework Laptop known for its excellent modularity and repairability. In this case, it comes with detachable displays, keyboards and interchangeable I/O modules that allows for various configurations catering to each usage cases (i.e. dual screen, traditional clamshell mode, external display, etc). There’s also the AI Workmate Concept and the AI Work Companion Concept that takes “AI companion” class of devices – think the infamous Rabbit R1 and Humane Pin – and slap it into different form factors in hopes it may eventually stick.

Lenovo also cooked up one concept for the gaming segment, and it’s the Legion Go Fold Concept. It’s textbook unconventional: between the two halves of the controller sits a foldable display. The screen, folded by default with 7.7-inch of display area, can be folded out and up for split screen mode spanning 11.6 inches, or outright detach the display and pair it with the keyboard-and-touchpad module to effectively turn it into a tablet PC (you could also use the controller itself as a mouse). Mind you, this is still a gaming handheld.

New Lenovo Laptops & Tablets

Within the consumer lineup, Lenovo introduced the Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition Gen 11, featuring an updated 14-inch 2.8K PureSight Pro OLED touchscreen with up to 1100 nits brightness and full coverage of DCI-P3, Adobe RGB and sRGB color spaces. It supports the Yoga Pen Gen 2 stylus with Canvas Mode, which slightly raises the display for improved ergonomics when sketching or writing. It’ll be powered by Intel Core Ultra 7 355 processor, with up to 32GB RAM and 2TB storage.

The Yoga Pro 7a Gen 11 targets heavier creative workloads using AMD Ryzen AI Max+ series processors and up to 128GB of unified memory shared between the Zen 5 CPU and Radeon 8060S GPU; it comes with a 15.3-inch 2.5K PureSight Pro OLED display and a Force Pad drawing surface powered by Wacom that allows users to sketch and edit designs directly on the touchpad. The combined chipset and the updated cooling system now allows the device to operate at up to 95W TDP across both the CPU for GPU, all while keeping noise levels as low as 22dB claimed.

Next, the IdeaPad Slim 5i Ultra Gen 11 comes with Intel Core Ultra 300 series processors, while display options include a FHD+ 16:10 OLED panel or a QHD+ 16:10 120Hz IPS panel. The Intel chip is supposedly efficient enough that the laptop’s 65Wh battery can last up to 20 hours on video playback, all while keeping the laptop as thin as 11.9mm and weighs from just 1.15kg, which is very light even by 14-inch standards.

Then, the gaming side we have the 15-inch Legion 7a Gen 11 (not to be confused with the 16-inch model with the same name), which is Lenovo’s first gaming laptop to feature AMD Ryzen AI Max+ processors. It’s got a 15.3-inch PureSight OLED display and Lenovo AI Engine+ software that dynamically optimizes system performance, thermals and power consumption, and for a gaming laptop, it’s pretty darn light – at just 1.65 kilograms.

(Lenovo also briefly mentioned two new models as part of its MWC launch lineup, which includes the 14-inch Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition Gen 11, and the 17-inch IdeaPad Slim 3i Gen 11. Not much is shared on the specs and features of both models, but we should know more as they launch in local markets.)

For tablet users, Lenovo introduced the Idea Tab Pro Gen 2 powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. The device features a 13-inch 3.5K (3540 x 2190, ~93.5% of 4K’s pixel count) 144Hz PureSight Pro display with Dolby Vision (matte panel optional), and a quad-speaker JBL system tuned with Dolby Atmos. Storage configuration goes up to 512GB, while RAM maxes out at 12GB; it comes with Android 16 and Lenovo says it’s eligible for upgrades to Android 18. Its 10,200mAh battery supports 45W charging.

The company also unveiled a second tablet in the form of Legion Tab Gen 5, equipped with a 8.8-inch 3K (3040 x 1904) 165Hz display with 800-nit HBM brightness and 480Hz touch sampling rate, and now comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset paired with up to 16GB of LPDDR5T memory, up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage and a 9,000mAh battery.

Accessories

Finally, accessories: Lenovo teamed up with Chinese mechanical keyboard maker AngryMiao to create the Yoga Creative Keyboard AngryMiao Edition, featuring a giant control dial that pops out of the chassis for perhaps two reasons: visually, it pops out for the aesthetic points, and functionally, it’s for use in editing software. It also comes with integrated USB-C hub connectivity. It is a chonker though, weighing at a massive 2.6kg for its aluminum body and sound refinement for that all-satisfying thock.

There’s also the Lenovo L16 Mobile Monitor for travelers. Its 16-inch 16:10 FHD+ IPS display can achieve 300 nits of brightness – just about sufficient in bright indoor spaces – with adjustable viewing angle up to 90 degrees from its L-shaped design. The base features I/O that includes two USB-C ports, with up to 65W power passthrough for host laptop to receive power from the monitor’s power source.

ThinkPad, ThinkBook & Commercial Models

Lenovo also expanded its commercial lineup with new Think-branded devices. The updated ThinkPad T-series laptops include the ThinkPad T14 Gen 7, T16 Gen 5 and T14s Gen 7, featuring improved repairability, optional 5MP cameras with computer vision capabilities and updated designs. The ThinkPad T14s Gen 7 is the lightest T-series model to date at around 1.1kg, while the ThinkPad T14s 2-in-1 Gen 2 introduces a convertible form factor with an integrated stylus for annotation and presentation use.

Meanwhile, the ThinkPad X13 Detachable is a 2-in-1 tablet PC powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors with up to 64GB of memory. The device includes a 13-inch display, dual Thunderbolt 4 ports and an integrated stylus stored within the detachable keyboard. Lenovo also announced the ThinkBook 14 2-in-1 Gen 6 targeting SMBs, featuring the same Intel processors with a 14-inch FHD+ touchscreen, a 360-degree hinge and support for the Lenovo Yoga Pen stylus.

Lenovo also expanded its rugged mobility lineup with the ThinkTab X11, an Android tablet designed for industrial and frontline environments; it features Qualcomm’s mid-range Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset, though performance usually isn’t the highest priority when we’re talking about rugged devices. For that, it meets MIL-STD-810H durability standards and carries an IP68 ingress protection rating, as well as glove and wet-touch display support. It uses a removable battery, and is operable without one provided power is already supplied via the charging cable.

Lastly, the commercial accessories lineup includes one new product: the ThinkVision M16 portable monitor. Similar to the aforementioned Lenovo L16, it’s also a 16-inch secondary display for mobile work setups, with features like USB-C connectivity and power passthrough for host laptops.

Pokdepinion: There’s no shortage of new products from this company on every major trade shows, isn’t it?
