LG Gram 17 (2022) review - The Verge

LG’s newest Gram 17 is quite similar to the model from 2021, with a refreshed processor. It’s the laptop to get if you want a big screen, light weight, and long battery life in one.

If you want a Windows laptop with as large of a screen as possible, your options are basically the Dell XPS 17 or the LG Gram 17. The calculus between the two is quite straightforward. If you care more about power, go XPS; if you care more about portability, go Gram.

This latest Gram 17 is no exception. At 2.98 pounds in a 17-inch chassis, this is without a doubt one of the lightest and longest-lasting laptops in the big-screen sphere. It achieves that combination without asking a fortune in price — my unit (with a 12th Gen Core i7-1260P, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage) is currently listed at $1,799, but Grams are available for as low as $1,599. Those certainly aren’t cheap prices, but they make the Gram miles more affordable than the XPS.

For those seeking the extra space of a 17-inch screen without the extra weight that comes with many big-screen rigs, the LG Gram remains the unambiguous choice. While the product has its limitations (especially when it comes to performance), there’s really nothing else like it on the market. Here’s what you can expect if you buy the thing.
