While foldable smartphones are starting to grow in popularity with the Samsung Z Fold and Z Flip models, it seems like even laptops are evolving into something else. Lenovo has just revealed a laptop with a slidable and stretchable screen.
The Rise of Foldable Displays Once Again
According to Giz China's story, as technology advances, the standards for regular devices have changed over the years. Over the past three years, foldable smartphones have emerged, with foldable displays returning to style.
The difference between foldable displays today and displays in the past is that even screens can be folded now. The article by Giz China notes that there have already been slidable screens showing up recently.

After fully sliding and stretching the display vertically, users will have more screen space to carry out different things like multitasking, browsers, mobile apps, and other particular usages. So far, no announcement has been given regarding when the product will be mass-produced.
