LG has unveiled its new gram laptop lineup featuring Aerominum, a proprietary alloy that enables the 16-inch Pro model to weigh under 1.2 kilograms while maintaining military-grade durability.

Key points

• The new Aerominum alloy replaces the magnesium chassis used in previous LG gram models since 2015.
• The flagship gram Pro 16 features a 16-inch OLED display with a 2,880 x 1,800 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.
• New models are powered by Intel Core Ultra processors and support on-device AI via LG’s EXAONE 3.5 sLLM and Microsoft Copilot+.
• The 17-inch variant offers up to 32GB of RAM and an optional NVIDIA RTX 5050 GPU.
• The 1.2kg weight of the 16-inch model is significantly lighter than competing 16-inch laptops like the 2.1kg Dell XPS 16.

LG’s material innovation challenges the industry standard for ultralight computing by offering a large-screen experience that rivals the portability of much smaller 13-inch devices. This development forces competitors to reconsider the trade-off between chassis weight and display size in the premium Windows laptop market.
