This Ultra-light Laptop is Powerful…


so we have a couple of new LG Gams a 16 and a 17 but what’s different about these is they’re not standard LG Gams instead they’re LG gram pros and what that means is the opportunity to have RTX Graphics in something incredibly thin and light so this thing is coming in around 1,200 G which is like 2 1/2 lb which is quite a bit lighter than what you’re used to seeing in a 16-in laptop with RTX Graphics there’s also a 17-in version which you might be thinking well 17-in laptops those things are big bulky and heavy this one also as the name implies is not let’s start out by opening up the 16-in Fairly understated unboxing experience now you still have Intel Graphics you just have the option there for RTX 3050 and it just shocks you every time you interact with a grand product how how they are able to make a laptop this big with a display size this big this thin and light so we have this matte black finish fairly understated branding just gram lowercase in the center of the lid looking around the device couple of usba a ports on the right hand side and an analog audio jack for your headphones on the other side we have two type-c connectors and we’ve also got a fullsize h HDMI that’s still there so here is the power adapter that’s a 90 W fast charger and fairly portable as well oh the lid is so light as well very simple and minimalist design in this matte black finish large trackpad in the center chicklet style keyboard they have found a way to get the number pad in there as well and we can also see the GeForce RTX sticker let’s do a comparison to the 17in and I am glad that the 17inch exists because there aren’t as many 17inch laptops to choose from anymore this one actually identifies our specs on the packaging core Ultra 7 155h 17in wqxga IPS LCD there are some OLED options for displays as well Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 32 gigs of RAM 2 tby of storage as these laptops get larger like as you hold the 17 it feels even thinner part of that is because it’s spanning a larger scale so it seems like a harder thing to achieve it feels crazy thin and light in your hands obviously same easy to lift it may actually be even more satisfying here hang on yeah this bottom portion slides slightly this one not at all both satisfying so quick comparison between the two track pads look to to be identical obviously keyboard slightly different more space specifically for the number pad side of the keyboard deck same charger same unboxing experience different display size different specification in our case and obviously a slightly different keyboard layout so let’s go ahead and boot up the 16 first every Soldier [Music] needs double kill biotics [Music] go oh God we he died at the exact same moment oh let’s go all right so look it’s it’s an extremely thin and light laptop and I’m not going to expect it to perform exactly like a gaming laptop but I would was surprised that I was able to do a little bit of gaming in there I mean at least you’ve got that RTX I think the RTX in here though is more targeted at production work and just giving you a little extra bump over exclusively integrated Graphics so this is still primarily about thin light Ultra portability and flexibility in display options and display sizes now let’s go ahead and check in with the rest of the team and see what they can do with the new LG gr Pro all right so what we have here is a typical work environment couple of desks and a variety of devices and obviously a number of different people collaborating in a teamwork style of environment over there on the floor on that cinder block is a prop well in this case it’s kind of a funny one because it’s from the boring company and it’s the burnt hair perfume which just arrived I haven’t smelled it yet so what we’re going to do in this scenario will is going to walk over to it snap a quick photo for social media posting this is something that’s typical for us sends it over to Mo who is on Windows and he’s going to be using LG gam link it goes from Android to Windows and then eventually it’s going to land here on this iPad which of course is IOS is to Showcase how LG gram link can move media files or any files for that matter in an environment where you have multiple people working and multiple devices on different platforms one five has been added beautiful so I could just load up X here I could grab my photo I don’t even know this is kind of self-explanatory I might not even need a caption I don’t think I need a caption look at this I’m actually going to post it there we go boom sending post so here we have in a matter of moments crossplatform sharing this one file Android to Windows and then to iOS and this works in the exact same fashion on up to 10 devices so you could have a team of 10 people within one click essentially you can distribute that single file to the entire group he’s on Android this is IOS so inside of LG gram link there are actually some AI features as well when you bring your photo library or any folder with photos in it it’ll run AI in order to determine what’s in those photos to help you categorize or find a particular image that you’re looking for so as you can see it took that folder and it created a few different categories based on what’s in that folder Sports Skyline sea dog food and so if I select for example dog it found a couple shots of dogs in that folder and food obviously we’ve got a strawberry and a sandwich and this is especially useful for huge folders with maybe even thousands of images in it you can imagine if you’re some sort of a graphic designer or even like us making thumbnails maybe you have certain elements and assets that you want to quickly look for and file names can be a little bit annoying it’s very similar to The Experience you have on your phone when you’re looking for the face of a certain person in a certain photo so if you’re used to that that’s essentially what’s happening here it’s just on your Windows desktop via LG gam link so the next thing we have on here is something called LG glance and you can see this overlay which you don’t have to have on screen I have it there to help showcase how this operates it is looking for me in front of the screen and I my face is represented by that Circle you can see if I get closer or further it knows that I’m the central user of this laptop and therefore it’s showcasing my video and I’m using it as I normally would without issue but if someone decides to get sneaky you’re in a public place you’re at a coffee shop you’re on public transit you’re on an airplane and somebody tries to peer in on what you’re looking at it will actually pause the video and blur the screen let me show you what I’m talking about will try to look at what I’m looking at boom see you later now I go whoa privacy guard and I notice what’s going on and I turn over my shoulder and I say hey there bud back off a little bit or I mean I think probably when the person that’s looking sees it get blurry like that I got found out so LG opted for the Intel Core Ultra processors with npu and this is going to Aid in battery Performance Management heavy task like video editing or gaming it’s going to be able to interpret your usage and then make those adjustments to battery performance in order to lengthen that battery life so there you have it that’s the new LG gram Pro in 16in and 17in let me know which form factor you would prefer for in the comments below and also which display option you would go for would you choose the OLED display at 120 Herz or would you look at the anti-glare instead up to 144 Herz it’s good to have options I’m just curious what most people would go for obviously there’s a different cost associated with each specification as well it’s just crazy how light they’re able to get these things [Music] [Music]
