CES 2023: LG showcases its Gram Ultraslim Laptop Lineup


LG is introducing an expanded 2023 LG gram lineup. The lineup, which was showcased at CES 2023 comprises the new gram 17, 16, 15, and 14 laptops (models 17Z90R, 16Z90R, 15Z90R, and 14Z90R).

LG says gram is set to position itself as a laptop brand that provides both power and portability, packing premium specs into sleek, ultra-lightweight form factors delivering take-anywhere convenience and exceptional user experiences.

Headlining the LG gram is the brand-new LG gram Ultraslim (model 15Z90RT), the thinnest gram model yet that weighs just 998 grams and has a depth (when closed) of only 10.99 millimeters; around the same thickness of a smartphone or notepad.

Besides being the most svelte gram in the 2023 lineup, the 15Z90RT packs a 15.6-inch OLED display with Anti-glare Low Reflection (AGLR) coating and Intel®’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake chip with Performance Cores (P-Cores). Further enhancing the excellent portability of the new model is the inclusion of an ultra-compact adapter. 

In terms of Style, the company says the LG gram laptops, offered in 16- and 14-inch versions (models 16Z90RS and 14Z90RS) have been created for people who love to express their unique style wherever they go. Both gram Style models sport a glass design that makes each of the available color options shine and shift dynamically; moving and changing depending on the light and angle. The focus on design continues inside the new grams where a ‘hidden’ haptic touchpad with soft LED backlighting illuminates at the user’s touch.

Each of the LG gram laptops has a 16:10, OLED Anti-Glare Low Reflection display with a high refresh rate, and features an Intel 13th Gen Raptor Lake P-Core CPU and a Gen4 NVMe™ solid-state drive (SSD).

Like all other models in the diverse 2023-gram lineup, the 16Z90RS and 14Z90RS support Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI connectivity and offer atmospheric audio with Dolby Atmos, which is new to LG gram this year.

The latest 17- and 16-inch grams are equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce™ RTX 3050 4GB Laptop GPU, Intel’s 13th Gen Raptor Lake P – Core CPU, and a Gen4 NVMe™ SSD.

Each of the new models weighs in at less than 1.45 kilograms – despite having a large battery that LG claims can handle more than 20 hours of video playback on a single charge – and comes with the same conveniently compact adapter included with the gram Ultraslim.

LG’s newest grams also boast superb picture quality, with all models employing an IPS panel with an anti-glare coating. New for this year, variable refresh rate (VRR)4 support will enable LG gram users to enjoy seamless, tear- and stutter-free graphics when gaming, while the arrival of Dolby Atmos will deliver immersive audio that helps bring movies, music and games to life.

LG gram 2-in-1 and +view for LG gram also welcome upgraded models for 2023. The new 2-in-1, which comes in 16- and 14-inch sizes (models 16T90R and 14T90R), gives users the freedom to switch from laptop to tablet, or vice versa, whenever they choose.

Along with its 4-way super-slim bezel design and sturdy yet slim aluminium frame, the latest ‘convertible’ gram boasts a suite of pre-installed note-taking and drawing applications optimized for use with the LG Stylus Pen (Wacom AES 2.0).

Meanwhile, LG’s portable monitor, +view for LG gram (model 16MR70) lets users double their screen real estate and enjoy easier multitasking wherever they go. Enhanced for the new year, the latest version of LG’s portable screen solution features dual USB Type-C™ ports, enabling users to connect to two devices simultaneously and enjoy the convenience of two-way power delivery.

The new 2023 LG gram lineup will be launching globally starting next month in Korea
