Unveiling the new Lenovo ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop proof of concept
Redefining Boundaries with Futuristic Proof of Concept
Introducing Lenovo’s latest groundbreaking innovation proof of concept, the Lenovo ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop Concept. This laptop revolutionizes the interaction and creation experience with its remarkable 17.3-inch Micro-LED transparent display. With a borderless screen, transparent keyboard area, and a seemingly floating footpad design, it effortlessly exudes a sense of high-tech simplicity, elevating the user’s overall experience.
The brilliance of this laptop lies in its intelligent integration of the virtual and real. Through the power of Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC), the transparent screen opens up new avenues of work collaboration and efficiency by enabling the interaction with physical objects and overlaying digital information to create unique user generated content. The transparency allows it to effortlessly integrate naturally within its environment. Users can seamlessly switch between the keyboard and drawing board with a supported pen, unlocking new levels of creative efficiency. AI in combination with transparent displays will open up new ways of engaging with data and applications, offering opportunities to develop new features and form factors.
Micro-LED technology offers many advantages in the development of transparent displays. High color saturation combined with exceptional contrast and 1000 nit brightness of the screen allow for optimal visibility both indoors and outdoors, making it equally suitable for nearly any setting. The technology also offers more possibilities in the future with further optimization of image quality, durability and adjustable transmittance to provide more privacy or more transparency to interact with real world objects. With its ability to display videos and dynamic images, the transparent screen seamlessly blends and harmonizes with its surroundings.
The Lenovo ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop Concept is not only a proof of concept but showcases a futuristic perspective on AI PCs, blending digital and physical environments that can enhance user experiences in ways never imagined.

In addition, embracing the inclusive user experience focus of Lenovo’s Product Diversity Office, ThinkPad T series will integrate the tactile markings announced on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 and ThinkPad X1 2-in-1 Gen 9. These additional tactile cues are designed to increase accessibility and aid users who are visually impaired to navigate the keyboard.

Additional user-centric innovations continue to enhance end user experiences, such as:
- Double tapping the TrackPoint opens the TrackPoint Quick Menu allowing users to customize common features such as microphone or camera settings.
- Lenovo View application, that runs on the Intel Core Ultra NPU to save processor load, provides video enhancing tools for the camera including a new Low Light Enhancer that can brighten and denoise video in low light environments.
- 3M™ Optical Film solution is available on optional WUXGA displays on ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and T14s Gen 5. The embedded optical film increases the brightness of the display from 300 nits to 400 nits while using up to 16% less power4, thereby reducing energy consumption.
- New ThinkPad T14 and T16 designs integrate enhanced repairability
- New ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 will also be available powered by AMD Ryzen™ 8040 series processors with built-in AMD Ryzen™ AI, giving customers a broader choice of high-performance CPUs.
Lenovo is transitioning to a circular economy by innovating in the supply chain, product design, and services and is focusing on a “design, use, return, re-use” model and promoting disassembly and recycling. Lenovo integrates closed-loop recycled plastic into their products and aims to recycle 800 million pounds of end-of-life products by 2025-2026. They also aim to use 300 million pounds of post-consumer recycled content plastics in their products and improve packaging sustainability5.
Lenovo’s commitment to a more sustainable future is evident in its ThinkPad line, highlighting dedication to the circular economy. ThinkPad laptops prioritize sustainability from design to end-of-life management. Recycled materials are used in manufacturing, promoting responsible sourcing and minimizing waste. Additionally, ThinkPad laptops are designed for longevity, allowing for simpler repair and upgradability, extending their product lifespan.
ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 repairability
ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and T16 Gen 3, with insights from the iFixit Solutions team, have been designed to be more repair-friendly, not only extending customer replaceable parts (CRU) to include the battery with a cable-free connector in addition to a fully socketed DIMM design, SSD and WWAN replacement, but also adding visual indicators for easier repairs. With support from the iFixit team, Lenovo created new repair guides including video procedures for all CRU parts as well as making those parts easier to order. This extends the product lifecycle, reduces electronic waste and offers cost-saving advantages for businesses and individuals. As a result of these improvements, ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and T16 Gen 3 achieved a provisional iFixit repairability score of 9.3 out of 10.
“This is a major step forward for Lenovo and the technology industry. Making laptops that stand the test of time is essential to building a sustainable electronics industry. It’s not easy, and Lenovo is demonstrating that repairability and innovation go hand-in-hand,” said Kyle Wiens, CEO at iFixit.
