5.0 out of 5 stars Holy crap, it's light!!!
By D. Ferrand
I'm super impressed with this laptop so far! Have had it for about 2 months, and it's my daily computer for half of my life since I travel for work. The weight is simply unbelievable. It's almost half the weight of my old MSI (and that was their lightest at about 5.5 lbs). The difference doesn't seem like much, but the way it feels in my backpack it seems like it's *more* than half the weight. Some of that is also the fact that the charging brick is so tiny, and that weight difference is even more extreme compared with my old laptop.The screen is great! My old computer was 1080 horizontal, and the increase in screen real estate going up to 1440 is huge. Very bright screen, and smooooooth with the 144 hz refresh rate!So far battery life is good...about what I expected from reading other reviews before buying. With general computing and video watching, will get 4-5 hrs and still not be running on empty. I'm not much of a gamer, so can't comment on juice life for that.My biggest beef is that the "2 TB drive" is split into two 1 TB drives...and for some reason I've not been able to get them merged into a single virtual drive. I may eventually clone the main drive to a larger drive and replace both of the stock drives. There's also a bit of LG bloatware but not a super big deal to uninstall.Ultimately, I would buy this laptop again in a second!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing laptop! Great deal
By Amazon Customer
I have owned a lot of laptops over the years. I had a 14 inch last that i really liked but the screen was too small for regular usage anymore so I really wanted to get bigger one with higher resolution. I have been looking for quite some time when I saw a 16 inch LG Gram at costco. I took down the info and went home and did some research on it. Then I found this 17 inch model with more ram and disk space so went with it. It is the lightest laptop I have ever owned by far. The screen is incredibly crisp, not 4K but can't tell the difference for this. Watching movies is amazing. Its not OLED but i have seen other IPS-based ones that are no where as good as this. It is also antiglare which I wanted as last laptop i had was glossy and drove me nuts. Incredibly fast and responsive, has instant wake feature that my Lenovo never could get working right. Great battery life, nice keyboard and trackpad. I got 4 year warranty just in case something happens but i'm definitely sold on these new LG laptops. Highly recommend this laptop, you won't be disapointed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the actual screen resolution, and does it support variable refresh rate?
The display has a native resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels (WQXGA) as per the detailed description, not the 1440p listed in some specs. It is an IPS panel with VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) support, which helps reduce screen tearing during gaming or fast motion.
How is the 2TB of storage configured, and can it be upgraded?
The storage is configured as two separate 1TB SSD modules (2 x 1TB), not a single drive. The product details confirm it uses a Solid State interface, but specific upgradeability for these dual modules is not stated in the provided specifications.
Is the graphics card memory 4GB or is there a discrepancy in the specs?
The NVIDIA RTX 3050 GPU has 4GB of dedicated video RAM, as stated in the title and bullet points. The 'graphics_card_ram_size' field in the product details incorrectly lists '2 TB', which is a data error; it should reference the system storage, not the GPU memory.
What does the MIL-STD-810H durability rating mean for daily use?
This military-grade standard indicates the laptop passed seven specific durability tests for factors like vibration and extreme temperatures. It suggests enhanced physical resilience for travel and varied environments, though it does not guarantee protection against all damage.
What are the specific benefits of the Intel Evo platform and 13th Gen i7-1360P processor in this model?
The Intel Evo certification for the 13th Gen Core i7-1360P processor ensures standards for instant wake, fast connectivity, and real-world battery life. Combined with 32GB of fast LPDDR5 RAM (6000 MHz), it's engineered for responsive multitasking and performance in thin, lightweight designs like this 3.2-pound laptop.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good So Far!

I heard mixed reviews on this. I took a chance and it's only been 2 weeks, but so far so good. The Alienware software takes about 10 to 20 seconds to load when first opening it. after that 5-10. The back end got flack for being too big. But Who is really carrying around a 16 inch gaming laptop. Keys feel great. RGB is good. Keys are clear and not blinding like most RGB backlits. Design is good imo. feels premium. Cam is decent. Touch pad is smooth. Display is nice, all text is clear and colors are good. I heard many people complaining about the brightness levels. But in a dark room I actually turn the brightness down. And in my home with normal outdoor light coming in, I have no issues with the brightness. 2 usb 2 usb c, this is the only downside. in my opinion. I wish there was one more. I do like there are no cables coming from the sides. All ports in back. Cleaner desk look. will update if I have any issues.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this laptop!!!

This laptop is a GIANT waste of money. It didn't last for 2 weeks before the system stopped charging itself and shut down. I had to return it without being able to remove my data. I am VERY disappointed with this product and purchase.
