With all the talk of Microsoft Copilot+ and Windows on Arm, it’s easy to forget that most laptops today are still powered by Intel’s Meteor Lake chipset. And they’re viable laptops, particularly if you need a machine that doesn’t yet equip Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Elite . The LG Gram 16 2-in-1 is one such laptop, offering a large display in a very portable package.

And when I say “portable,” I mean it. The LG Gram 16 2-in-1 is incredibly thin and light while packing in a gorgeous 16-inch high-res OLED display. It’s meant for people who want a lot of screen real estate but don’t want to carry around a thick and heavy laptop.

In that respect, the LG Gram 16 2-in-1 delivers, although it had some important flaws to consider before you go out and buy it. Specs and configurations LG offers two configurations of the Gram 16 2-in-1. The first costs $1,500 and includes an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H chipset, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a 16.

0-inch 3K OLED display. For an additional $600, you can upgrade to 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD. Those are premium prices, and you’re likely paying an extra for the exceedingly thin and light design.

The HP Spectre x360 16 , the Gram 16 2-in-1’s most logical competitor, is much thicker and faster, and it starts at $1,600 ($1,110 on sale) with the same chipset and RAM but with a 512GB SSD and a 16.0-inch IPS display. You’ll pay $1,815 ($1,315 on sale) for exactly the same configuration.

At the high end, the Spectre is $2,335 ($1,835 .
