Believing themselves to be the company that “enriches everyday experiences in the home and at work,” LG unveils its ultra-light LG gram laptop range. Stylish, sleek, durable and surprisingly portable, this new series of laptops challenges its competitors with long-lasting battery power, Thunderbolt 4/ USB 4 and 16:10 aspect ratio screens, offering users substantially more screen information at any one time.

Returning to the laptop market in Australia after several years hiatus, Bernadette Jolley, business solutions marketing manager at LG Electronics Australia, said the new range was flexible enough to meet the needs of changing work-life use. “The LG gram range delivers both work and personal functionality. These products are built to enhance productivity, provide immersive viewing and creation and keep up with on-the-go experiences –such as camping and offsite meetings.”

With research from the LG Power your Passion Survey revealing that the top five most desirable laptop features include long battery life (81%); fast, powerful processing (79%); slim and light design (60%); durable and sturdy build (58%) and superb graphics (41%), the LG gram arrives in 2021 to tick all the boxes.

Even with its 17-inch 16:10 screen in the flagship LG gram weighs only 1,350g, with the 16 and 14-inch models weighing just 1,199g and 999g, respectively. Each model features ultra-narrow bezels and a hidden hinge design, plus a screen-to-body ratio of 90 per cent.

The most exciting feature for us, however, is the addition of Thunderbolt 4/ USB 4. With this new standard, users can enjoy a dual 4K and single 8K display connection via only a single Thunderbolt port. Coupled with 100W PC charging, next-generation interface support, and USB4 compatibility, the LG gram is arguably one of the most advanced laptops available right now.

With pricing expected to sit somewhere between $1,799 to $2,999, the LG gram arrives down under to power your passion.
