Lenovo has launched its innovative ThinkBook Plus G7 Auto Twist outside China, featuring a motorised hinge and a 14-inch OLED panel, marking a shift towards more automated and versatile laptops for premium users.
Lenovo has begun selling its ThinkBook Plus G7 Auto Twist outside China, moving the unusual 14-inch model from concept to a broader commercial launch. According to Notebookcheck, the laptop is now listed in Lenovo’s web shops in Germany and other European markets, while Chinese buyers were first offered the higher-end Core Ultra X7 358H version alongside 32GB of memory and a 1TB solid-state drive. Notebookcheck says the machine is built around a motorised display hinge, Intel Arc B390 graphics and an OLED panel rated at 1,100 nits.
The design is the device’s main differentiator. Tech coverage from early 2026 said Lenovo intended the screen to rotate automatically according to the user’s position, shifting between laptop, tablet and presentation-style use without manual adjustment. At CES 2026, Lenovo said the ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist would use Intel Core Ultra 300-series processors, support up to 32GB of DDR5-9600 memory and up to 2TB of Gen 4 storage, and include a 75Wh battery.
That battery is central to Lenovo’s pitch. NanoReview lists official endurance figures of up to 21 hours, while Notebookcheck says Lenovo has claimed more than 21 hours in testing. The same sources describe a 14-inch 2.8K OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and full DCI-P3 colour coverage, putting the machine firmly in the premium thin-and-light category rather than the gaming segment implied by the Arc branding.
TechRadar reported a starting price of $1,499 in the US, although Lenovo’s European pricing can differ by market and configuration. The result is a laptop aimed less at mainstream buyers than at users who value automation, portability and a high-end display, even if the motorised hinge makes the product more elaborate than most business notebooks.
