After an impressive return to the Australian market last year, LG has announced a new series of sleek, ultra-light LG Gram laptops for 2022.
Featuring Windows 11 and the latest 12th Gen Intel® Core processors across the range, LG has also bumped storage up to utilise Gen4 NVMe SSDs and low-voltage LPDDR5 RAM for a high-performance laptop that looks great.
The LG Gram range includes six new models, the LG gram 17-inch (17Z90Q), as well as three new LG gram 16-inch (16Z90Q) models and two new LG gram 14-inch (14Z90Q) models. As a bonus, anyone ordering the LG gram 16-inch (16799Q-GAA78A) will receive the gram View+ display, a portable 16-inch monitor with detachable cover that connects via USB-C, enabling users to extend the digital workspace as a gift with purchase, valued at $599 RRP.
The laptops use a slim bezel design, which offers an excellent screen-to-body ratio and the 16:10 aspect ratio is perfect for watching media, surfing the web or getting some work done. The displays also offer 99 percent coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space for colour accuracy.
A notable update in these days of increased video conferencing is the inclusion of a FHD resolution IR webcam on each model.
The LG Gram impressed me last year and we’re hoping to check them out again soon. There’s a full range of models on the LG Website where you can order now, or here’s a quick guide to the new range.
