Last year’s LG Gram Pro 17 was a classic study in laptop compromise. The compromise scales ultimately tipped against the Gram Pro in 2024, but I’ll give credit to LG for staying the course and continuing to iterate on this design, and fixing many of the flaws I remarked on previously. Faster, Thinner, CoolerPhotograph: Chris NullSummer 2025 sees the arrival of a new, 16-inch version of the LG Gram Pro. While heavier than the old LG Gram Pro 17, it’s still up to a pound lighter than a typical 16-inch laptop. While the unit I received for review is LG’s lowest-end configuration, featuring an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H CPU, 16 GB of RAM, 1 terabyte of storage, and integrated graphics, it ran rings around the older Gram Pro 17 and handily outpaced recent vintage systems from other manufacturers on common tasks.
