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.

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.

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.
I love a tall boy. Lenovo put a foldable display on a gaming handheld. The Legion Go Fold Concept is a Windows-based handheld with a flexible POLED display, detachable Joy-Con-like controllers, and a folio case to turn the whole thing into a mini laptop.

When unfolded, the controllers can be repositioned to all four sides, allowing you to play with the screen in vertical or horizontal orientations. In vertical splitscreen mode, you can put your game on one half of the screen a … Read the full story at The Verge.

Lenovo Group Ltd. revealed several new proof-of-concept prototypes, including a “modular” laptop with two displays and detachable ports, along with a portable gaming device featuring a folding display. The devices, announced to coincide with the start of the MWC Barcelona conference in Spain on Monday, are not final and do not have a confirmed release date. In addition, the company unveiled a concept device resembling an alarm clock with an artificial intelligence-powered assistant built in. The Chinese company, which also owns Motorola, has a history of showing off concept devices, not all of which have gone on to become commercially available. At CES, in January, it teased a Motorola-branded AI pendant with a built-in camera, smart glasses and a laptop prototype with a display that rolls out sideways. While many of these items never leave the proof-of-concept stage, they offer clues as to how the world’s leading PC maker is thinking about future products. Read More: Lenovo Debuts Qira AI Platform and Concept Devices at CES The idea of dual-screen laptops is not entirely new. Brands such as Asustek Computer Inc. have tried selling such models to consumers, making the pitch that double the screen space is a boon for productivity and multitasking. But Lenovo’s “ThinkBook Modular AI PC Concept” goes further by letting users transform the entire machine by detaching and reconfiguring its components. By default, a secondary screen attaches to the back of the laptop, which would make it possible to show someone a presentation when they’re seated opposite you. That display can also be swapped into the keyboard’s position for a setup similar to Asus’. It could also be used as a conventional external monitor when plugged in with a cable. On a prototype machine that Lenovo showed during a presentation ahead of MWC Barcelona, ports like the HDMI output could be removed and swapped for different connectors, so users would be able to optimize the laptop for different workflows ...

Beyond Phishing: The New 'Deepfake' And QR Code Credit Card Scams Of 2026 Authored by Adam H. Douglas via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours), The newest credit card scam warning signs look different from old-school phishing emails. In 2026, face-tampered QR codes (“quishing”) in public places are a growing trend. Or an urgent phone call from what sounds exactly like your bank, but is actually an AI-generated voice clone. Man holds credit card upside down for shutterstock pic Some important scam warning signs are: QR codes placed on stickers or layered over original signs Payment links that redirect you to unfamiliar web addresses Calls demanding immediate action to “prevent account suspension” Requests for one-time passcodes or full card numbers over the phone Pressure to act before you can independently verify the request One of the best pieces of advice is: If something feels urgent, slow down and verify through official channels. You may think you’re too tech-savvy to fall for a scam. That confidence is exactly what modern fraud tactics target. Traditional phishing emails, full of easy-to-spot spelling errors, are giving way to more sophisticated threats. Today’s scams rely on artificial intelligence, realistic voice cloning, and everyday tools like QR codes that often feel legitimate, personal, and time-sensitive. Here’s what you need to know to avoid the newest credit card scams. The Rise of ‘Quishing’: QR Code Credit Card Scams QR codes spread rapidly during the pandemic. Today, they’re commonly found in restaurants, parking meters, and even utility bills. Scammers, not surprisingly, have caught on. “Quishing” refers to phishing done through QR codes. Instead of clicking a suspicious link in an email, you scan a code in the real world. Common Quishing Scenarios A parking meter with a QR code sticker placed over the original code A restaurant table tent that redirects to a fake payment portal A public event sign offering “fast checkout” through a QR link A mailed ...
