To learn more about the LG Gram 17: https://bit.ly/3affSd7
I think the value proposition of 17-inch laptops is kind of complicated. I'm not saying they don't serve a market cause if not they wouldn't exist, but historically they've been more desktop replacements than laptops.
If you would've asked me a week ago if I wanted one, I would've said no, but not for the average reason. What I do actually benefits from a powerful and portable machine with a larger-than-average screen real-estate, but since my travel needs are quite unique, I've made peace with the fact that if I were to pick between large or portable, I'd pick the later. It's come to the point where even if I know that my 16-inch MacBook Pro is the most powerful laptop I own, I travel with a 13-inch M1 because it's nearly half the weight.
But I think that last remark is the most important. My biggest problem was weight more than size. The only way I would be willing to look the other way is if someone somehow defied physics and gave us a lighter computer that was larger, which it turns out, has existed for quite a few years.
This is the 17-inch LG Gram, the company's latest and most powerful laptop, and proof that I'm glad they didn't pay attention to my emails. See I told them not to send me this machine. I chose a smaller variant for review because I felt there was just no way I could like this behemoth of a machine, and well.. Let's just say I was wrong in most things. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow, and this is our full review.
