Lenovo introduced the 14-inch Project AeroBlade concept at IFA 2026, an ultra-thin (under 10mm) and lightweight (about 830g) ThinkBook that uses Frore’s AirJet piezoelectric solid-state cooling instead of traditional fans. The design enables active, near-silent cooling with no bottom vents and reduced dust ingress, and the demo unit uses an Intel Lunar Lake chip, Thunderbolt 4, Wi‑Fi 7 and an OLED display. Lenovo says a market version would likely use a newer processor, but the technology could help bring solid-state cooling into mainstream laptops. » Plus sur theverge.com

Lenovo says BIOS version V42 can cause some Legion Go devices to show a blank screen during installation and has removed the update while it validates fixes. The company recommends holding the power button ~10 seconds and rebooting, and asks affected customers to contact Lenovo Support if that fails. A forum representative indicated repairs should be free under warranty but guidance for out-of-warranty devices is unclear; Lenovo says the issue appears linked to specific mainboard batches and investigation is ongoing. Only original Legion Go 8APU1 units that downloaded V42 from Lenovo’s site are known to have been at risk. » Plus sur theverge.com
