Lenovo expands the availability of its rotating-screen ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist to North America, giving regional buyers access to a unique form factor that prioritizes display flexibility over raw gaming power. This release matters because the device offers a high-quality OLED panel with variable refresh rates at a price point that undercuts many premium ultrabooks, though it restricts processor choices compared to international markets. Buyers who value screen versatility for writing or reading should consider this model, while those needing maximum computational throughput for heavy multitasking might find the base configuration limiting.
Rotating OLED laptop arrives in US with Core Ultra 5 and 32 GB RAM
The laptop features a 14-inch 1800p OLED display that supports a 30-120 Hz variable refresh rate and reaches 500 nits in standard mode or 1,100 nits for HDR content. Lenovo limits the North American configuration to the Intel Core Ultra 5 325 processor, which pairs with an Arc B390 integrated graphics unit. This specific CPU choice targets everyday productivity tasks rather than intensive gaming or video editing workflows.
Specifications
- Display: 14-inch 1800p OLED, 30-120 Hz VRR, 500 nits SDR / 1,100 nits HDR peak
- CPU (North America): Intel Core Ultra 5 325
- CPU (Europe): Intel Core Ultra X7 358H
- RAM: 32 GB LPDDR5X-7467
- Storage: 512 GB M.2 2242 SSD
Internal hardware includes 32 GB of LPDDR5X-7467 RAM and a 512 GB M.2 2242 SSD for storage. The system relies on Wi-Fi 7 for connectivity and houses a 75 Wh battery that supports 100 W charging. Lenovo claims the battery lasts over 18 hours in MobileMark 30 tests at 250 nits and over 21 hours in JEITA-BAT 3.0 tests at 200 nits.
Benchmark data from Notebookcheck indicates the Arc B390 iGPU delivers more than twice the performance of the older Intel Graphics 4 Xe3 unit. The Core Ultra X7 358H processor available in European models offers over 30% higher CPU performance than the North American Core Ultra 5 325. We touched on Lenovo Yoga Mini i Gen 11 in our earlier Lenovo coverage while tracking similar hardware trends.
The ThinkBook Plus Gen 7 Auto Twist retails for CAD 2,929 in Canada and $2,109 in the United States. Lenovo previously released the same laptop in Europe about a month ago before bringing it to the North American market. The device ships with the specified Core Ultra 5 325 processor and 32 GB of RAM as the standard configuration for this region.
