LG’s Gram laptops have always been small and light, but its latest “SuperSlim” variant rivals Apple’s MacBook Air in mobility (via Engadget).
In its press release, LG labels its new laptop the Gram SuperSlim (previously Ultraslim), calling it the “thinnest LG Gram ever.” Its 15.6-inch OLED display is larger than Apple’s 13.6-inch IPS one and is 0.43 inches thick. In addition, LG’s is 2.2 pounds lighter than the MacBook Air’s 2.7 pounds.
LG’s Gram Superslim is available today with a 13th-gen Intel Evo Core i7-1360P CPU, 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, and a 512GB SSD for $1,699.99. In addition, it has three USB-C ports (two Thunderbolt 4 and one USB 4) and a headphone jack.
With 32GB RAM and 2TB SSD storage, the best value is $1,999.99. In addition, if you buy either new SuperSlim by May 14, LG will include its 16-inch +view Portable USB-C monitor.
The SuperSlim sports an OLED screen, although the current variants only have 1080p resolution. Even without OLED, Apple’s thinner MacBook Air’s 2560 x 1664 resolution screen looks amazing. At LG’s SuperSlim pricing, I’d want to hear about a reported 15-inch ultraportable notebook.
LG debuted the SuperSlim at CES in January, along with the rest of its Gram lineup, including its 14, 15, 16, and 17-inch models and the colorful featherweight LG Gram Style laptops, which, like the SuperSlim, have an OLED screen and start at 2.2 pounds.
