LG gram Pro 16" 16Z90TR-E.ADB9U1 Black 2025
72 out of 100 low confidence 5 reviews
The LG Gram laptop is praised for its extreme lightness and powerful performance with the Intel Core Ultra 9 and RTX 5050, making it ideal for portable gaming and heavy tasks like video editing. However, the build quality draws criticism: the plastic chassis feels cheap, attracts grease easily, and can bend under pressure, which disappoints given the high price.
