The Gram 17 range has always been extremely light, and extremely powerful. We named the 2020 version “the best 17-inch laptop out there for non-gamers” and the 2021 version improves on that further. But can a laptop be this big and this light, yet still perform well under pressure?
When we took our LG Gram 17 out of the box, there were two things we noticed. Firstly, the weight, or more accurately lack of it. At 1.35kg, it just doesn’t feel like it could be a powerful computer, because despite its imposing size, it’s so amazingly light.
