LG is updating its Gram laptop line ahead of CES 2025

LG’s Gram laptops are back for another round of updates before then Consumer Electronics Show 2025. A a contract in Thin and light variety With their presence in the LG portfolio, the latest models are loaded with AI (surprise!) and boost performance while maintaining the portability of their brand.

Four new models will be launched at CES: two Gram Pro variants, the new Gram Pro 2-in-1, and the entry-level Gram Book. The first version of the Gram Pro has an Intel Core H-series (Arrow Lake) processor under the hood for more traditional laptop tasks (including some gaming). The second model uses an Intel Core Ultra V-series (Lunar Lake) chip for AI tasks. The latter is a Microsoft Copilot + PC With all Good stuff AI Expected from this line, incl He remembersLive captions, Cocreator, and Windows Studio effects.

Even if you don’t opt ​​for the Copilot+ variant, you’ll still get LG’s AI features on most of the new models (all but the Gram Book). These fall into two camps: on-device AI tasks and AI tasks processed via the cloud. Features on the device include a mini chatbot derived from LG’s EXAONE large language model. It also adds LG’s Time Travel, a feature similar to Microsoft’s Recall that can recall web pages, documents, videos, and audio files you’ve visited or used. It’s not clear if or how LG’s version will avoid privacy risks Microsoft ran into a Recall issue.

Cloud-based AI features include Gram Chat Cloud, a more powerful chat software (powered by GPT-4o) which can integrate with your calendar and email services.

The Gram Pro has a 17-inch (Arrow Lake) or 16-inch (Lunar Lake) display with a 2560 x 1600 pixel LCD. The variable refresh rate is up to 144 Hz. Both options have up to 32GB (LPDDR5X Max 8400MHz, dual-channel) of RAM and 2TB of storage.

The Arrow Lake model should be for a powerful gaming laptop with RTX 4050 graphics. The AI/Lunar Lake model only has Intel integrated graphics. But at least the latter is lighter and thinner, weighing 2.73 pounds. Compared to the Arrow Lake model at 3.26 pounds.

LG received the Innovation Award at CES 2025 for its latest Gram Pro 2-in-1. The top configuration has a 16-inch display with a 2880 x 1800 OLED display (120 Hz variable refresh rate); Cheaper variants are limited to a 2560 x 1600 LCD (144Hz VRR). The 2-in-1 comes with a wirelessly rechargeable stylus that, as the name suggests, folds back into tablet mode.

Finally, the Gram Book is an entry-level model that LG is launching to “expand its presence in the US market.” Its screen is a more vulnerable 15.6-inch 1920 x 1080 LCD with a frequency of only 60Hz. The Intel Core i5 CPU combines with integrated Intel graphics and a maximum of 16GB of RAM to make it the least powerful of the bunch. It’s also the heaviest at 3.75 pounds.

Unfortunately, we don’t know how “entry level” it is: LG has yet to announce pricing information (or release dates) for any of the new laptops.
