And it could be yours for a whopping $2,499.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I got to check out the laptop before the show floor opened up, and it seems like something I&#8217;d actually want to use on a daily basis.<\/p>\n<p>The laptop has a 13.3-inch 2K pOLED display (made by LG Display) with 2048 x 1536 resolution. It&#8217;s designed to spread out as you close it, so that it never truly creases. At the demo, the crease wasn&#8217;t all that visible. But it remains to be seen what happens when you open and close this thing every day.<\/p>\n<p>The display also features a stainless steel foil underneath, to protect from scratch resistance, and a special coating on top. But it&#8217;s still soft enough to fold and unfold with ease.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use it in a variety of ways. Completely unfolded, the X1 Fold acts like a standard tablet, to watch movies or browse the web. Fold it in a little, and you can use split-screen mode to see different content at once.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Additional features include a five-megapixel IR camera at the top of the display, an Active pen to navigate the laptop or take notes, and Dolby stereo speakers.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"image\">\n<p><picture itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><source   type=\"image\/webp\"><\/source><source   type=\"image\/jpeg\"><\/source><img alt=\"Time will tell if that crease becomes more visible the more you use the laptop.\" class=\"\" data-fragment=\"m!e051\" data-image=\"https:\/\/mondrian.mashable.com\/uploads%252Fcard%252Fimage%252F1138475%252Ff381f6aa-4984-4073-964e-17f4d0e506f2.jpg%252Ffull-fit-in__1200x2000.jpg?signature=MXB49UEaVbdC1ujv8lR9vqdCLyI=&amp;source=https%3A%2F%2Fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com\" data-micro=\"1\"   src_type=\"jpeg\"><\/picture><figcaption class=\"image-caption\">\n<p>Time will tell if that crease becomes more visible the more you use the laptop.\n<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><div class=\"image-credit\">\n<p>Image:  ZLATA IVELEVA\/MASHABLE\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>When it&#8217;s fully folded in half, you can use the bottom of the laptop as the keyboard while the top acts as your monitor.
