Foldable phones were the talk of the town in 2019, but Lenovo was one of the few companies, if not the only, to go above and beyond to show us a foldable PC. In 2020, with the [ThinkPad X1 Fold](https://technosports.co.in/2020/01/14/ces-2020-lenovo-thinkpad-x1-fold-launched-at-2499/), with a 13.3-inch display that can fold into an ultraportable 9.6-inch laptop, we saw the incredibly cool concept come to life.

A controversial pick for the list, but the [LG Wing](https://technosports.co.in/2020/09/15/introducing-lg-wing-with-an-innovative-swiveling-design/) is a really cool idea and makes you believe that companies are trying to do cool things again. The LG Wing features a funky design with a T shape, sporting two screens, one on top of the other. The top display can go horizontal, unveiling a smaller display underneath, and both the screens can be used for multitasking. LG also inserted a legitimate gimbal camera that makes use of the T-shaped design to control the camera angle and frame shots on the fly.

No innovative tech inventions of 2020 can go without mentioning the next generation of consoles, starring Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X|S. According to NeoWin, both consoles are “some of the first pieces of hardware to pack RDNA2-based GPUs and perhaps most notably, blazingly fast loading times courtesy of SSD storage and DirectStorage technology that even PCs weren’t able to leverage before.”
