[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know where to start about this LG notebook. It is slim, durable, and snappy!
Upon arrival, the first thing I noticed was how light the package was and after removing it from its box (cutely boxed btw)
I fell in love with its sleek profile. Setting up and getting started was super easy and installing the usual apps was no problem at all.
The battery life is extraordinary, lasting as long as 9 hours under intense usage such as recording work outs, casting media, and doing some light programming.

Definitely a 5 star and I'm considering getting one for my mother for Christmas!
Edit: it's been about a week or two since I've gotten my laptop and wanted to update my review. First off, let me begin by sharing how fast device is, I'm able to cast instagram, browse reddit, AND download my favorite podcast. Speaking of speed, the user interface is super snappy, menus are clear without any clutter. But y'all, my favorite part is the backlit keyboard that I didn't even notice at first. It makes late night study sessions so much easier! I can't reiterate how happy I am with this computer!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently was in the market for a new lightweight powerful laptop and found the LG Gram 14” model 14Z90N which is an amazing machine. It is by far the lightest laptop I have ever used and lighter than most of my tablets. LG was able to produce a durable machine with a long battery life as well.
I was impressed with the fact that in order to gain access to the laptop the power button also served as a fingerprint reader for extra security. It was a nice tradeoff for using touchscreen machines with other ways to log in. The nice thing about this smaller laptop is that it has a high definition screen that makes the graphics stand out while streaming movies or surfing the web.
The keyboard is backlit so it makes it easier to operate the laptop in low lighting scenarios. It is also packed with enough power from the 10th generation Intel processor and was able to handle all of my business uses of the machine with different software programs. I also noticed that even when I had the laptop sitting on my lap that it did not heat up like other laptops and was easy to maneuver around.
I would highly recommend this laptop for friends and family looking for a lightweight powerful machine with great graphics for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how light weight this computer is and it fits nicely in my bag to take it wherever I go. I also like the picture and the sound quality and it's great for watching movies on line. This compute boots up quickly and I didn't have to install or update and it was ready to go right out of the box. I'm on my computer 5 to 6 hours at a time so the battery life is great. I also like that it has a fingerprint sensor that makes logging into your computer super easy for you and not anyone else trying to get into your computer.

I want only this laptop the rest of my life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this laptop for over a year now and I still only charge it every three to four days with consistent use. I have yet to ever hear it make any noise. While in use, for up to eight hours even, it sounds like it's off, not even a fan noise. It still runs fast. The weight and dimensions are perfect for carrying around. For once I have a laptop I can rely on. And for once I have not a single complaint. This is the perfect laptop. I'm almost thinking of buying a second one just as a backup. Nothing will ever top this one.
Pros: Style/Design, battery, Performance, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ultra-slim and ultra-light LG gram laptop with 14-inch IPS display is easy to bring on the go with you wherever you go because it is so lightweight. It has a long battery life (up to 18.5 hours) until it needs to be recharged. This laptop is compact and has fast speed and amazing graphics. The single solid state drive supplies plenty of storage (256GB) and USB Type-C connectivity offers faster data transfer as well as a smooth display of high-definition video. The screen with full HD IPS display gives precise and very clear images with bright vibrant colors from every angle.
It has several ports: the power jack, two USB 3.1 ports, an HDMI port and one USB 3.1 Type-C port. It also has a secure lock slot, a headphone/microphone combo jack and a microSD slot. It has a Thunderbolt 3 port for 5k display, data transfer with high speeds and it is possible to charge connected devices without a separate power cable at the same time with just a single cable.
I love the backlit keyboard so it is easy to type at night or in dark environments by just touching the power button. You can adjust the keyboard brightness for two levels. The keyboard is comfortable and looks stylish. The LG Gram’s audio speakers are excellent and have an intense sound.
Overall, the LG Gram is lightweight, very portable, has an excellent vibrant display, awesome sound and has a long battery life. A great multimedia laptop that can handle all my needs whether work wise or for entertainment.

Maybe I got the bad one.

I am not getting anywhere near 18 hours of battery life. It is more like 8-10 and that is if I use the laptop infrequently. In fact, I charged it to 100%, closed the laptop (which places it in sleep mode) ad opened it up again 2 hours later to discover it is at 95%. I have closed down all battery eating programs and it still eats battery like crazy, The battery meter at the bottom is all over the place. It is not worth looking at. I will call tech support I suppose but it is disappointing since that was a major selling point for me. Other than that I love the design and it IS very light. I just wish I didn’t have to constantly recharge it.
Pros: Style/Design, Features/Settings
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The gram is such a light laptop that I did a double take when I lifted it out of the box. I don’t know how much it weighs, but it definitely isn’t many grams. It was very easy to set up out of the box. All I did was plug it in, and a few seconds later, I was able to hook onto my home WiFi and voila, I was checking all my accounts and binge watching my favorite tutorials. The screen clarity is very easy on everyone’s eyes. There are a few teens in this household, and fought over who would get to keep it for longer periods. They both are able to stare into it for long periods of times at all hours of the day and night without any complaints. They like the screen and are able to see all the details they need , be it for gaming or tutorials. The Bluetooth was seemless, and the sound is very good , because the headphones. I’ve tested on all the different headphones that we have, and the sound is always clear. The keyboard keys make it easy to type because they are raised and mimic a keyboard. That is a plus because it is hard to type when the keys are molded into the machine. It’s already been used as a zoom class, and the picture was clear. I would suggest an external camera just because it’s not as clear as a phone, of course. The speed of the computer is phenomenal. Since the kids have basically claimed it as their own, from what I have seen, it can run 5 programs at the very least, and still run fast. And these are the programs that take lots of memory, such as editing programs, zoom classroom and multiple player games. Usually the kids need to do all those things on different devices, but the Gram is able to rub all those apps without problems simultaneously. The battery life is what has impressed me most. I am able to use the computer on a full charge for a long time. The kids could actually play for their normal marathon times without ever plugging it in to recharge it. So that’s more than 7-8 hours with no battery conserving in any way shape or form. I like the multiple USB ports because when it is charging, you can charge multiple devices at once. I couldn’t be happier with the gram, even if it weighed more. It is very lightweight but is a heavyweight in terms of power, ability to sustain power and speed. I suggest buying more than one because once the others find out it’s power, you’re not going to get it back.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I traded in a MacBook Air because I needed a computer for work on occasion and Mac's will not run Citrix well despite what they tell you. It does everything I need it to with no issues and is much lighter than the MacBook to boot. My daughter joked that they call it a gram because it only weighs a gram. It is highly recommended by Consumer Reports which is the primary reason I chose this make and model.
Pros: ease of use, Performance, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!
