| PC World - 9 Sep (PC World)Small things are cute. That’s practically the entire business plan behind everything from Polly Pocket to Reese’s Pieces. And it holds true for desktop PCs, where small form factor builds are all the rage now.
Over at the PCWorld Labs, Adam and Will are going hog wild on a bunch of different designs, including the Teenage Engineering “$0” plastic case, the Framework Desktop, the LiquidHause ISO Chassis, and more.
In this over-three-hour-long build video, the duo waxes poetic on all the ins and outs of building computers in itty bitty spaces, comparing tons of different layouts and design philosophies.
It makes great background watching for a long gaming session or some housework. (Yeah, we know what you guys are doing with these.) If this is your jam, be sure to subscribe to PCWorld on YouTube and check out our weekly podcast The Full Nerd. Read...Newslink ©2025 to PC World |  |

|  | | PC World - 5 Sep (PC World)If you’ve been looking for a laptop that can handle both gaming and heavy creative work, Lenovo just dropped something at IFA that’s worth checking out. The Legion Pro 7 16 Gen 10 now rocks AMD’s new Ryzen 9 9000 HX series. Yep, that’s the kind of chip that makes even the most intense games and demanding video editing software feel smooth.
Equipped with the powerful Ryzen 9955HX3D processor and RTX 5080 graphics, this thing isn’t kidding around when it comes to raw performance. Lenovo’s cooling setup, called Legion Coldfront: Vapor, includes hyperchamber tech that can push up to 275W TDP. Basically, it’s built to keep things cool while you’re blasting through max settings. Cooling is serious business, y’all.
Oh, and if you’re worried about storage, it can come with up to 2TB Gen 5 PCIe SSD. That’s plenty of room for your games, files, and whatever else.
The Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16 Gen 10 features a 16-inch 2560×1600 OLED display with a wildly fast 240Hz refresh rate and 0.08ms response time. On paper, colors should pop and motion should look silky smooth. Throw in up to 32GB of DDR5 RAM and this force of nature can totally handle streaming and heavy-duty work.
It also comes with Windows 11, so you’re all set for the latest features and security. But honestly, the real magic is how the CPU, GPU, RAM, and storage work together–this laptop should absolutely fly, just like Falkor the luck dragon from Neverending Story.
The Lenovo Legion Pro 7 16 Gen 10 is expected to launch in November 2025 with a starting price of $2,399. Read...Newslink ©2025 to PC World |  |
|  | | PC World - 5 Sep (PC World)Lenovo has previously shown off a prototype display that can intelligently align itself for optimal ergonomics. Now, it’s doing something similar with a laptop stand, too.
At the IFA 2025 show in Berlin, Lenovo is showing off what it’s calling the Smart Motion Concept, a smart multidirectional laptop stand that can track your face and optimize itself so that presumably its alignment will place little stress on your eyes and neck. The company is also showing off what it calls a “VertiFlex” concept, which would allow a laptop’s landscape screen to rotate into a portrait mode, and a “Magic Bay Tiko” smart screen.
Lenovo typically exposes some of what its engineers have been working on at various trade shows, hearkening back to the days when IBM — which sold its laptop business to Lenovo — would open the doors of its iconic Almaden Research Lab in the foothills of San Jose. There, IBM would show off some of its research, seeding the industry with new ideas while soliciting feedback.
At CES 2025 as well as the MWC 2025 show, Lenovo demonstrated the AI Display, which placed an NPU inside of a display both to add AI capabilities to older PCs, as well as to allow the monitor to automatically swivel, tilt, and elevate. The idea was that in a shared communal workplace, where workers might cycle in and out with laptops connected to docking stations, the AI Display could automatically configure itself to a new worker.
Before the work-from-home movement took over, however, communal workspaces were also jammed together with laptop stands, with their displays doubling as external monitors. The Smart Motion Concept basically does the same thing as the AI Monitor, aligning the laptop both to minimize eyestrain as well as to position it and its camera for video calls. Analyst Olivier Blanchard of the Futurum Group captured a video of the Smart Motion Concept in action, as it turned and followed him.

Lenovo also uses an AI ring to enable gesture controls of the entire setup, the company said.
It’s all very reminiscent of webcams like the OBSBOT Tiny 4K, which has a small gimbal and tracking software to allow the webcam to twist and turn and track your face as you move about the room.
Tweaking the display is also the theme of Lenovo’s other concepts.
The ThinkBook VertiFlex Concept (top image) imagines a traditional clamshell laptop whose 14-inch screen can be vertically rotated into portrait mode. The 3.06-pound laptop is designed to switch into portrait mode for use with reviewing documents or writing code. While in portrait mode, Lenovo said that it intends that a smartphone could connect to the laptop by lying with its back facing the portion of the display — though whether for charging or just ergonomics is unclear.

Lenovo also showed off what it calls a “NaturaSynth” display, with blue light being throttled down to under 1 percent to reduce eye strain and fatigue. The blue-light controls are managed in hardware, Lenovo said.
Finally, Lenovo also showed off (but didn’t announce) the Magic Bay Tiko concept, which is essentially another small display which can be attached to the back of your laptop. Lenovo is positioning the small rectangular display (about the size of an old car-mounted CD deck) as both a teleprompter and a second screen for speaker notes without your eyes drifting too far away from a webcam during a meeting.

Keep in mind while these are technically concepts, Lenovo also brings some of these to reality. The latest example? The ThinkBook Plus Rollable, a superb laptop with an extensible rollable screen that began life as a concept but which Lenovo eventually brought to market. Ironically, the Rollable essentially beats VertiFlex to market by “unrolling” into a portrait mode. Either way, it’s great to see companies trying new things — and talking about them publicly.
