Johansin Posted May 26, 2025 Posted May 26, 2025 I researched about the best LG laptop for the past few days because i need a lightweight but powerful machine for both work and everyday use. I read reviews on CNET Laptop Mag and TechRadar and they are marking these two as best: LG gram Pro 2 in1 16-Inch Lightweight and Versatile Laptop https://www.amazon.com/LG-16-inch-Lightweight-Versatile-Laptop/dp/B0CTWLFLXC?th=1 LG gram Pro 16-inch OLED Thin and Lightweight Laptop https://www.amazon.com/LG-16-inch-Lightweight-Laptop-Intel/dp/B0CTD1VSWN?th=1 However, I am having trouble deciding which one would best suit my needs and need your expert advice. In my daily routine, I typically: Work on documents, spreadsheets, and video calls Do light photo editing and multitasking Prefer something that is super portable with long battery life Occasionally stream shows and browse with multiple tabs open So which one should I buy? If you’ve used either or have another LG laptop recommendation, I’d really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks in advance!
John Ratsey Posted May 26, 2025 Posted May 26, 2025 I would be cautious of using "lightweight" and "powerful" in the same sentence. The performance of most, if not all, of the LG notebooks is limited by their ability to dissipate heat so they underperform compared to other notebooks with similar CPUs / GPUs. Some of the LG notebooks have two cooling fans, which helps a little, whereas others have only one. Sometimes this can be figured out from LG's specs and photos while the notebookcheck reviews include internal photos. I own two LG notebooks but my primary requirements were light weight with large, good quality displays and adequate performance. You will find some discussion of the LG notebooks in this section of the forum.
Paul Posted May 28, 2025 Posted May 28, 2025 The difference in performance will be quite noticeable from 16GB RAM of the PRO 2 to 32GB RAM of the PRO 16 OLED. You can find it at a better price than posted previously at redacted.
