LG Gram 17 Review

Whether you are looking for a smartphone that is easy to carry around, or you are just looking for a way to keep in touch with family and friends, the LG gram 17 may be just what you are looking for. It is a compact, ultra-lightweight device that boasts ultimate portability.

Screen size

Featuring a 17-inch display, the LG Gram is a solid performer that is also lightweight and durable. The design is minimalist, and the magnesium alloy used in the chassis has a plastic-like feel.

The Gram 17 isn’t designed to be a gaming machine. The keyboard is okay for daily use, but it’s not as well-engineered as some of the other models in this category. The keys have a short journey, and the keys themselves are a little dull and noisy.

The Gram 17 has a USB-C 4.0 gen 3 port, which can be used for charging and for connecting to a display. The right side of the laptop has a USB Type-A 3.2 Gen 2 port and a headphone jack. The left side features a Thunderbolt 4 port, which can be used for charging and connecting to an HDMI port. The Gram 17 is also compatible with a MicroSD card.

Weight

Besides being a good-looking notebook, the LG Gram has a few nifty tricks up its sleeve, including a well-designed battery. The battery is a whopping 80Wh, which means it should last more than a day and a half, assuming you use it responsibly. The laptop is a mere 2.95 pounds, which is a fraction of the weight of some of its contemporaries.

The LG Gram is not the only high-end laptop on the market, but its weight savings come as a big relief to those who don’t have the budget for a MacBook Pro. The LG Gram also boasts a solid design, a snazzy keyboard, and a well-designed port suite. Aside from the obvious HDMI port, the laptop boasts a 3.5mm headphone jack and two USB-C ports.

Wi-Fi

Despite its diminutive size, LG Gram 17 offers more connectivity than most modern laptops. It features USB-C and USB-A ports on both sides, along with HDMI and a microSD card reader.

The 17-inch screen has a high-quality 2560 x 1600 IPS display, which offers a great view from all angles. It’s also optimized for productivity. The display has a 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives you 11% more screen real estate than a traditional 16:9. The screen’s natural shape and high contrast deliver a comfortable experience.

LG Gram 17 is light and sturdy. It weighs less than three pounds, and its magnesium alloy chassis is built to last.

Bluetooth 5.1

Whether you’re looking to make your mark in the office or at home, the LG Gram 17 is a good choice. It is a powerful laptop, but is also compact and lightweight, making it easy to take on the go. The 17-inch model is equipped with a powerful Intel Core i7 11th gen processor. It also has a 1 TB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD, which is more than enough to handle your everyday tasks.

It also has some other cool features, including an integrated Intel Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1. This is the latest version of Intel’s wireless protocol. Bluetooth 5.1 allows you to connect external devices. LG also boasts a MIL-STD-810G rating, which is impressive. This model also boasts a snazzy 3.5 jack plug for your audio devices, and a microSD card reader.

IR-capable camera

Having an IR-capable camera on LG Gram 17 would have made the laptop more secure, but LG missed an opportunity. Its camera is not Windows Hello-compliant, and the camera can only be used when Secure Mode is deactivated.

The LG Gram 17 is a light, ultraportable laptop with a large 17-inch WQXGA display. It comes with two USB 3.2 Type-A ports, a microSD card reader, and a headphone jack. It is a catch-all device designed for mobile professionals, students, and home users.

LG Gram 17 has a full-size keyboard with a palm rest and a big touchpad. It also has a fingerprint reader built into the power button. This helps make it easy to log into accounts in the Edge browser. The LG Gram 17 comes with a standard one-year warranty.

Build quality

Among the various 17-inch laptops, the LG Gram 17 stands out as being one of the lightest. This ultraportable offers a QHD screen, a full-sized keyboard, and a battery that lasts up to 13 hours. The screen also features a 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives you more real estate vertically.

LG’s Gram 17 boasts a solid, ergonomic keyboard with a satisfying travel distance. The keys are backlit with white LEDs and feature uniform illumination.

The display lid features the Gram logo in silver. It is also well-engineered, with a solid hinge that did not flex in our testing. LG has also included a small low-profile cooling fan for the CPU.
