The world’s largest personal computer vendor, Lenovo, took over the Sphere in Las Vegas on January 6, 2026, for its Tech World event at CES 2026, and it wasn’t shy about its AI ambitions.
Dr. Tolga Kurtoglu, the chief technology officer at Lenovo focused on what they call “hybrid AI,” AI that works across personal devices, enterprise infrastructure, and cloud services.
The Chinese company’s Tech World event was packed with AI-powered devices, enterprise partnerships, and concept products that blur the line between your digital devices. Some are shipping this year, others are still in the lab.
Here is every major update that Lenovo announced at CES 2026:
Lenovo Qira
Lenovo Qira is a personal AI agent that works across Lenovo and Motorola devices – PCs, phones, tablets, and wearables. Instead of having separate AI assistants on each device, Qira learns your patterns and coordinates tasks across your entire ecosystem.
During the live demo, Qira caught a user up on missed messages, pulled information from earlier conversations to draft a work document, scheduled a reminder, and created a LinkedIn post using photos from their phone and context captured by a wearable pendant. The system uses multimodal AI to handle voice, text, and visual inputs. Qira will roll out on select Lenovo and Motorola products throughout 2026.
AI Glasses Concept
Lenovo’s AI Glasses Concept weighs 45 grams and offers 8 hours of battery life. The glasses feature touch and voice controls, hands-free calling, live translation, and image recognition powered by Qira. Think of them as a way to get real-time information without constantly pulling out your phone.
ThinkPad Rollable XD Concept
This laptop expands from a 13.3-inch display to nearly 16 inches – that’s 50% more screen space. The device uses transparent 180° Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, so you can actually see the rolling mechanism at work. It’s still a concept, so no pricing or availability date publicly available yet.
ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist
Unlike the rollable concept, this is a laptop you can actually buy. The ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist features a voice-controlled screen that rotates and adjusts based on your position. It launches in June 2026 starting at $1,649.
Aura Edition AI PCs
Lenovo expanded its Aura Edition lineup powered by Intel’s Core Ultra Series 3 processors. The portfolio includes the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 14, ThinkPad X9 series, and Yoga Pro models. These PCs feature integrated NPUs (neural processing units) capable of up to 50 TOPS for on-device AI processing.
The standout is the Yoga Pro 9i Aura Edition, available Q2 2026 starting at $1,899.99. It packs NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU and a 3.2K OLED display that reaches up to 1,600 nits peak brightness.
Legion Pro 7i FIFA World Cup 26 Edition
For gamers and football fans, Lenovo launched the Legion Pro 7i FIFA World Cup 26 Edition gaming PC featuring FIFA branding and themed design elements.
Motorola Razr Fold
Motorola unveiled the razr fold with an 8.1-inch display, AI-powered sketch-to-image feature, and 50MP cameras. The sketch-to-image feature allow users draw rough concepts and have AI turn them into detailed, realistic images. All powered by Qira.
Motorola Signature
This is Motorola’s premium flagship featuring four 50MP cameras, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 mobile platform, and seven years of OS and security updates. There’s also a special edition with Swarovski crystals coming later.
Motorola Razr FIFA World Cup 26 Edition
A special FIFA-branded version of the razr with design elements inspired by the tournament. It will be sold through Verizon starting next month.
AI Wearable Concept
Lenovo showcased an AI wearable proof of concept – a necklace that captures important moments throughout your day with your permission. Powered by Qira, it can transcribe conversations, take notes, and retrieve information when you ask. Think of it as having an AI assistant that quietly listens and remembers for you.
Lenovo AI Cloud Gigafactory
Lenovo and NVIDIA announced the Lenovo AI Cloud Gigafactory, a gigawatt-scale AI infrastructure program designed to help cloud providers deploy AI workloads faster. The program works with NVIDIA’s new Rueben platform and includes Lenovo’s Neptune liquid cooling technology, which cuts energy use by 40%.
According to Lenovo Chairman and CEO Yuanqing Yang, the goal is to move customers “from creation to production at unprecedented scale.”
ThinkSystem SR675i
AMD CEO Lisa Su joined the stage to announce the ThinkSystem SR675i, an AI inferencing server powered by AMD EPYC processors. Lenovo calls it “the beast” internally because it’s optimized for high-token throughput and low-latency AI inferencing at scale.
The server features Neptune liquid cooling, massive GPU density, and enough memory to run full large language models on-premises. For context, this means healthcare providers could analyse 30 gigabytes of MRI data right where it’s created without sending it to the cloud.
AMD Helios rack-scale AI architecture
Lenovo became one of the first system providers to adopt AMD’s Helios rack-scale AI architecture with the MI455X accelerator. This is AMD’s most advanced chip, designed for massive throughput AI workloads with industry-leading high-bandwidth memory.
ThinkSystem SR650i and SE455i
Lenovo announced two additional AI inferencing servers: the SR650i, which already holds five AI inferencing world records and is optimized for most inference workloads; and the SE455i, a compact “anywhere server” designed for edge deployments where data is generated and decisions need to happen instantly.
Think retail stores analysing live video to predict inventory needs, or banks detecting fraud in real-time as transactions happen.
Football AI Pro
For FIFA World Cup 2026, Lenovo introduced Football AI Pro, an AI tool that analyses millions of data points across more than 2,000 metrics. It provides teams with tactical insights, generates 3D player avatars for better identification and tracking, and delivers AI-stabilized referee view footage.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced that 7 million people will attend the 104 matches, and 6 billion people will watch from home. Lenovo and Motorola device users will get first access to exclusive AI-enhanced footage delivered straight to their phones and PCs.
