For instance, users can connect to a video conference call on the upright part of the screen, while having a spreadsheet or word processing document open on the bottom half, DailyMail.co.uk reported.

Lenovo says the Fold will retail for around $2,500 and will be available in mid-2020, though an exact date has not been finalised.

The Fold has Intel Core laptop processors with 8 GB of memory besides supporting 5G connectivity option.

Because of the uniquely thin housing, Lenovo developed a custom cooling system that combines a thin fan, a heat sink, and a heat spreader.

It will offer an 11 hour battery life and weigh just 2.2 pounds.
