The AI Workmate Concept can move and rotate to accomplish various tasks, but can it ever truly know love? | Image: Lenovo Alongside a handful of new laptop concepts (and a range of real products too), Lenovo used MWC to announce a pair of AI-based productivity companion concepts. Both are standalone desk devices designed to boost productivity while providing office workers with a bit of artificial dystopic companionship. Lenovo describes its AI Workmate Concept as an "always-on desk companion," but it looks like a tiny robotic arm on a swiveling base with a bulbous screen on the end displaying an expressive pair of eyes. It doesn't look as engaging as a human co-worker, but through local AI processing you can interact with the device as a smart assistant via v … Read the full story at The Verge.

The magnetic pen case is pulling wedge duty in there. Lenovo has a few new Yoga laptops it's announcing at MWC 2026: the 14-inch Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition, 15-inch Yoga Pro 7a, and 14-inch Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition. The most interesting of the pack is that 9i 2-in-1, outfitted with a 2880 x 1800, 120Hz OLED touchscreen. It includes a Yoga Pen Gen 2 stylus with a case that attaches to the laptop's lid. Fold the convertible back with the pen case attached and the screen sits at a slightly elevated angle. This should be more ergonomic while drawing and taking notes than writing on it flat, and the laptop has rounded edges and corners for a comfier grip. The 9i's main specs include an Intel Core … Read the full story at The Verge.

There are various new chip offerings and updates for this swathe of ThinkPads, but the device I find the most interesting is the X13 Detachable. We haven't seen a major update to Lenovo's tablet-style ThinkPad in years, when it was the X12 Detachable. The new releases (and starting prices) are: ThinkPad T14S Gen 7 ($1,899) ThinkPad T14S 2-in-1 Gen 2 ($1,849) ThinkPad T16 Gen 5 ($1,799) ThinkPad T14 Gen 7 ($1,799) ThinkPad X13 Detachable ($1,999) ThinkBook 14 2-in-1 Gen 6 ($1,754) Compared to its predecessor, the X13 D … Read the full story at The Verge.

Lenovo goes a little Franken-laptop. | Photo: Antonio G. Di Benedetto / The Verge One of Lenovo's big laptop concepts for MWC 2026 is a modular ThinkBook with two screens. Officially called the ThinkBook Modular AI PC Concept, the proof-of-concept is a 14-inch productivity machine with two plug-and-play interchangeable ports and a second 14-inch display magnetically attached to the rear of its lid. The second display is removable, and can be propped up on a magnetic kickstand (stored under the laptop) and plugged in via USB-C. But this concept PC has one more trick: removing the keyboard / trackpad deck and replacing it with the second screen, turning the whole thing into a dual-screen laptop you use with the keyboard a … Read the full story at The Verge.
