LG has announced its Gram 16 and Gram 17 laptops which are lightweight devices with 12th Gen Intel Core CPU, NVIDIA RTX 2050 GPU. The laptops will be available from next month in LG’s home market of South Korea. The LG Gram laptops are thin and light – and both of the new models also follow that trajectory. The LG Gram 16 weighs 1.28kg while the Gram 17 is slightly heavier at 1.43kg.
The two laptops, apart from their compact nature, also offer some convenience options that serve to optimize their performance. Each of the new models is capable of detecting activity around them like when the user walks away from the laptop or another person comes close. This enables the display to be customized to sustain visibility at all times. It also displays a warning message when a person comes behind the user.
The LG Gram 16 and Gram 17 laptops bear striking similarities apart from their CPU and GPU. The displays of both Gram 16 and Gram 17 have 16:10 WQXGA IPS screens. Their screens have an anti-glare coating and the panel is capable of fully exhausting the DCI-P3 color space. The battery capacity of the two new laptops is 90kWh.
The new laptops are priced from 2.29 million won (~$1,880) for the lowest variant of Core i5 CPU and 16GB/256GB Gram 16 model. The corresponding price for the Gram 17 model with the same base configuration is 2.39 million won (~$1,962). It is unclear at this time, the global availability of the two laptops. We however expect its availability in select markets at the least, after its Korea launch.
