Expert tester comments
LG's Gram is a very light (1kg) laptop that makes few compromises. You still get USB-A ports (USB 3.2) and a full-sized HDMI port, along with two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports. Its screen is vibrant and bright, and its performance was very good overall in our tests. It's a great everyday laptop, especially if you need to carry a laptop around with you, and its battery life proved to be long in our tests, too.
