These laptops are the first to use the company&#8217;s proprietary Aerominum material, which keeps weight down to just 3 pounds while improving strength and scratch resistance. While LG has several configurations for both sizes, there are just two options.<\/p>\n<p>The 16-inch model features:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2,560&#215;1,600-pixel resolution IPS display\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>AMD Ryzen AI 7 450 processor<\/li>\n<li>32GB of LPDDR5X RAM<\/li>\n<li>2TB of storage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The 17-inch model has:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2,560&#215;1,600-pixel resolution IPS display<\/li>\n<li>Intel Core Ultra 7 355 CPU<\/li>\n<li>16GB of LPDDR5X RAM<\/li>\n<li>512GB of storage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The AMD-powered 16-inch Gram Pro is available for preorder now at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$2,400<\/span>, while the Intel-powered 17-inch model is available for preorder at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$1,650<\/span>. Unfortunately, neither has the discrete Nvidia RTX 5050 graphics available in other configurations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are three more newly refreshed Gram laptops available now with the $1 premium care option: the Gram Pro 2-in-1, the Gram Book and a standard Gram laptop.<\/p>\n<p>As with many convertible devices, the 16-inch Gram Pro 2-in-1 sacrifices performance in tablet mode, making it a more appealing choice for artists and notetakers. Shipping with a 2,880&#215;1,800-resolution OLED screen, this device supports touch or stylus input and features an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H processor, 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of storage. The 16-inch LG Gram Pro 2-in-1 is available for preorder now at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$2,200<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The more affordable Gram Book is available in new 15.6- and 16-inch models that support both Intel and AMD processors, respectively. The 15.6-inch Gram Book is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 115U processor and has 1TB of storage, but only 16GB of DDR5 RAM &#8212; so don&#8217;t expect to do any heavy-duty AI-powered lifting with this computer. The 16-inch Gram Book is powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 CPU and features 1TB of storage and 32GB of LPDDR5X memory. Frankly, for a couple of hundred extra dollars, that likely puts it in a comparatively much better place than the 15.6-inch model.<\/p>\n<p>The 15.6-inch Intel-powered Gram Book is available for preorder now at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$1,150<\/span>, while the 16-inch AMD-powered Gram Book is available for preorder now at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$1,500<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, the good ol&#8217; 15-inch Gram model is getting a refresh, too. The LG Gram 15 is a Copilot-enabled clamshell powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 7 450 CPU, 32GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB of storage space. The LG Gram 15 is available for preorder now at <span class=\"c-shortcodeCommerceLink\">$1,600<\/span>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"c-shortcodeImage u-clearfix c-shortcodeImage-large c-shortcodeImage-hasCaption\">\n<div class=\"c-shortcodeImage_imageContainer\"><!----> <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-cmsImage c-shortcodeImage_image\"><picture class=\"c-cmsImage_image\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/a\/img\/resize\/22348a10386cab1ca48101e43ff3f9c45d809877\/hub\/2026\/05\/01\/bc2cbd6e-11bc-4c4e-a98c-df92bca42995\/2026-gram-book-01.jpg?auto=webp&amp;width=768\" alt=\"The LG Gram Book faces screen-forward, with another half-folded unit positioned next to it.

If you&#8217;re going to buy such an expensive piece of hardware, I think it&#8217;s becoming a no-brainer to insure it.<\/p>\n<p>An extended warranty is another cost for consumers to absorb, but this special LG Premium Care deal offers a super steep discount on this new laptop lineup. One year of LG Premium Care would normally cost anywhere between $130 (for the Gram Books) and $175 (for the Gram Pros).<\/p>\n<p>Purchasing some peace of mind for a couple of hundred dollars&#8217; discount isn&#8217;t too shabby &#8212; but I wouldn&#8217;t rush to shell out thousands of dollars for a warranty deal. Certain laptop configurations also very often go on sale in the months after their initial release, so even if the warranty isn&#8217;t this cheap again, the package deal may very well be cheaper at some point in the future.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a new laptop and one of the six new LG Gram models is calling out to you, preordering one now to take advantage of the special one-year warranty deal isn&#8217;t a bad idea. But if you&#8217;re not in the market for a new laptop at this exact moment, I wouldn&#8217;t rush out the door (or to the website in this case) for this limited-time special warranty, either.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n      (function() {\n        window.zdconsent = window.zdconsent || {run:[],cmd:[],useractioncomplete:[],analytics:[],functional:[],social:[]};\n        window.zdconsent.cmd = window.zdconsent.cmd || [];\n        window.zdconsent.cmd.push(function() {\n          !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n          {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n          if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n          n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n          t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n          s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n          'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n          fbq('set', 'autoConfig', false, '789754228632403');\n          fbq('init', '789754228632403');\n        });\n      })();\n    <\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LG announced on Thursday that its six 2026 Gram laptop models are available for preorder.
