Lenovo showcases foldable tablet (video)

Lenovo has been toying with the idea of foldable displays for some time now, showcasing a number of concept products that can be bent into different form factors at its various conventions in recent months.

None of those gadgets are really close to becoming commercially available, but the Chinese tech firm seems to be making progress on some of them either way, the Business Insider reports.

At its Lenovo Tech World event last week, for instance, the company showcased a functional version of the Folio, a concept device it first unveiled last year.

The Folio is a 7.8-inch Android tablet with a hinge in its middle that allows the whole thing to fold into a 5.5-inch, dual-screen smartphone-style device.
