The 2022 LG gram lineup features five new laptop models: gram 17 (17Z90Q), gram 16 (16Z90Q), gram 15 (15Z90Q), gram 14 (14Z90Q), gram 2-in-1 (16T90Q), and the series’ first-ever portable monitor, +view for LG gram (16MQ70). 

Taking security to the next level and supporting work from any location, the 2022 LG gram laptops elevate the user experience with LG Glance by Mirametrix®, an innovative AI-based software solution that enhances security and convenience. This technology automatically locks the screen if the user steps away from their laptop1 and also alerts the user and blurs the content they are working on if someone is looking at the screen from over their shoulder.Conveniently, if a separate monitor is connected, the mouse cursor and the window currently being used automatically move to whichever screen the user is looking at.

Additionally, this year’s models offer an optimized environment for video conferencing with features such as face log-in, AI-noise cancelling and a built-in Full-HD webcam. What’s more, LG’s advanced IPS displays are now anti-glare, 3 reducing distracting reflections making it easier for users to see what they’re working on, regardless of ambient light conditions.

The 2022 gram lineup also welcomes the +view for LG gram, a portable 16-inch monitor with detachable cover that connects via USB-C to extend the digital workspace. The portable monitor can be placed next to a laptop in horizontal or vertical orientation4 to provide a seamless look and a 16:10 aspect ratio IPS canvas for advanced multitasking.

“We’re delighted to support Canadians however and wherever they want to work” said Adam Belzycki, Director of IT Business Solutions at LG Electronics Canada. “Every choice reflects our personal way of working – from the place to the technology we use.  The LG gram’s ultra-lightweight portability, durability and long battery life enables users to have the most flexibility in how they choose to work.”

Each new LG gram laptop provides powerful performance backed by a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processor; which has been upgraded to the latest Gen4 NVMe™ SSD, and employ low-voltage LPDDR5 RAM to achieve a performance boost of around 22 per cent compared to 2021 gram models.5 Intel® Evo™ Platform certified, the 2022 LG grams guarantee long battery life with up to 25.5 hours with one single charge, giving users the freedom to work, or play, wherever their day takes them.

LG’s premium laptops are synonymous with exceptional picture quality. Featuring a 16:10 aspect ratio, WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600) resolution IPS panels,6 the new LG grams provide sharp, vibrant images with high brightness, 99 per cent coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space, and broad screen real estate to meet users’ diverse productivity and entertainment needs. With their 4-way super-slim bezel design, each model offers an excellent screen-to-body ratio and is rugged enough to meet the U.S. military’s stringent MIL-STD-810G standard.

The 2022 LG gram lineup also remains true to the brand’s core identity, delivering compact, ultra-lightweight designs without sacrificing durability or performance. All 2022 LG gram products ship in eco-conscious packaging that presents thoughtful reusability after unboxing – cleverly converting to a desk calendar and pencil holder.

A versatile device that enables users to switch between laptop and tablet in seconds, the new 2022 16-inch LG gram 2-in-1 model comes with pre-installed drawing and notetaking applications optimized for the LG Stylus Pen (Wacom AES 2.0). With the combination of smoothly integrated stylus support and LG’s AI-based user interface, the latest gram convertibles offer greater work efficiency as well as a responsive and enjoyable writing and sketching experience.

I am the owner of Cerebral-overload.com and the Verizon Wireless Reviewer for Techburgh.com. My love of gadgets came from his lack of a Nintendo Game Boy when he was a child . I vowed from that day on to get his hands on as many tech products as possible. My approach to a review is to make it informative for the technofile while still making it understandable to everyone. Ben is a new voice in the tech industry and is looking to make a mark wherever he goes. When not reviewing products, I is also a 911 Telecommunicator just outside of Pittsburgh PA.
