LG gram 16Z90P Laptop 16" IPS Ultra-Lightweight, (2560 x 1600), Intel Evo 11th gen Core i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Upgradeable Windows 10 Home, Alexa Built-in, 2X USB-C, HDMI, USB-A - Silver

Update- I've been using this laptop for many months now without any problems & I could not live without it! It has some scratches on the exterior, but I consider these signs of a laptop well used & well-loved. I bring it to work and use it to "remote in" since it's lighter and faster than my work laptop that is physically connected to the network. My co-workers also love working on my LG Gram & are always begging to borrow it!This laptop is everything I've been yearning for. It's light (2 lbs), fast, compact, & has the numeric keypad. Even better, the battery lasts for days. It's not a touchscreen, but if you need a business-friendly laptop that is easy to travel with & works well with Office Suite, this is the one for you.I've wasted too much money on multiple laptops for half the price (that have half the speed & battery life)... This is the real deal and is worth every cent!

There is one, and only one, reason to buy the LG Gram 15 over all the many other laptop options: This is by far the lightest 15-inch-screen laptop available. At 2.4 pounds, it is almost unbelievably light and easy to carry, around the house or for work. Everything else about it is pretty ordinary, but acceptable. The screen brightness, at a little over 300 nits, is less bright than laptops such as the XPS15 and MacBook Pro, but fine in almost all situations other than direct sunlight. Color contrast is decent, LG has always made good screeens. The keyboard, while a little cramped, has decent key travel for the laptop width and is comfortable to type on. Because of the lightweight materials used, the LG Gram has some flex, but nothing alarming. The design is understated and won't wow anybody, but you are buying this for its compact packaging, not a flashy design. Performance is fine on almost all business applications; not a gaming or high-end video editing laptop. Sound has good volume, but lacks bass and depth, as you'd expect. Personally, I don't need the fastest, best-looking, most expensive laptop on the market. I need something that is light and easy to carry for travel, that gets the job done for my business. For me, the LG Gram is a great choice, but probably not for everybody.

Been playing around with the 16 inch version for several weeks now. build-wise I am very pleased. The screen doesn't wobble too much and the keyboard is just lovely to use. I will say there's one potential issue, where if you put enough weight/pressure on the space left or right of the touch pad, you can get it to register as a click, but in practical use it never happened. Something to watch out for if you have massive sausage arms that lay flat on the laptop, maybe. That aside, I REALLY like the trackpad. It's been like a decade since I used a laptop pad so I was assuming a mouse would be a mandatory purchase, but not anymore. The multi-touch controls work great, and it's nice and big so I never feel like my fingers are gravitating too far into a corner to browse properly.On the software side of things I am impressed with the SSD and operating system. Once you got your user settings entered the first time around, the computer can go from the powered-off state to your home screen in like fifteen seconds. I haven't extensively tested the CPU, though I've found it can run Overwatch at low settings and 60fps with only minimal tinkering. I primarily use it for writing and the occasional google research/time waster, which it handles with ease, and I'm sure it could stream a Spotify setlise or play iTunes on top of that as well. It also didn't seem like a big deal at first, but the fingerprint scanner is so nifty to have, I have actually become spoiled on it and feel irritated when I have to type my password out on the desktop.There are some "bloatware" applications pre-installed that you could do without, such as McCaffee, but mostly the applications seem fine. There's the LG Virtoo app that can sync to an LG phone, which I also happen to have. Testing it...I mean, it works, you can send/receive calls through the laptop and copy over any photos you've taken, but the bluetooth connectivity would kill your phone battery with any extensive use, and the sound/mic quality on the Gram is not professional by any means. Far more useful is the simple control panel that has your power features, screen brightness and fan options at just a click away. There's also an LG-branded video editor, though given the Gram's low voltage and integrated graphics, I doubt you'd want to compile any 4k footage on this laptop.There's only a handful of nitpicks bring it down to a 4/5. Main thing is, for whatever reason, I can't get it to save separate power usage/brightness settings depending on whether it's plugged in or not. This is quickly fixed by clicking the battery on the taskbar and using the hotkeys to change the screen's brightness, but it is irksome to do it EVERY single time. Secondly, if you use the Gram at a less than full charge while charging, the charger brick gets surprisingly warm. I'd say it's hot, even. Lastly, the screen is really glossy. As a cave-dwelling hermit this doesn't affect me, but I can imagine using this in an outdoor setting or coffee shop with a bunch of overhead lamps might not be the best experience.Can I recommend this absurdly expensive laptop to everyone? Well, no. It fits my niche of needing a super lightweight quiet writing device with a decent screen size, easily capable of some research googles or wasting time with very light gaming sessions. In this regard I am super satisfied. If you need something for gaming, media production or media consumption, there are cheaper, better options available.

I rarely write reviews, but here goes...I use laptops for various project tasks, communication, image editing and light entertainment. I am not a gamer. I’ve owned about a dozen Apple machines and a handful of Windows devices, including an Asus zen book most recently. I turned away from Apple in the last couple years and have been really impressed with the most recent versions of Windows. Although I still prefer my iphone to all other makes.So what about this LG laptop???Pros- Beautiful bright and sharp display- Good, responsive keyboard- Lightning fast CPU (for my purposes)- Reasonably sturdy build (flex not an issue for me)- Extra light weight for the screen size ( main selling point)- Minimal (for Windows) bloatwareCons- Should have full size SD slot and not micro- Should have both a USB and USB-C on each side rather than a 1-1-2 configuration- Haven’t been able to charge thru USB-C...maybe my own misunderstandingThat’s it. I was apprehensive about plopping down a grand for last years model but I’m glad I did. I’m very happy with this laptop. So far so good.
