LG has dropped its 2026 Gram laptop lineup, with base models priced at $1,150 and available now directly from the company's website.
The Gram line has long been defined by one thing: extreme lightness. These are laptops you can toss in a bag and forget about, typically weighing under two pounds. The 2026 models appear to continue that focus, though LG hasn't detailed specific specs or weight improvements over the prior generation.
Here's the thing, though. At $1,150, you're paying a premium for that portability. Competing ultrabooks from Dell, Apple, and Lenovo offer similar or better performance for comparable or lower prices — they just happen to weigh a bit more. The Gram has always been a niche device for people who prioritize being able to carry their laptop all day without noticing it's there.
The real question is whether the 2026 refresh brings enough new features to justify the cost, or if it's more of the same incremental updateLG has been shipping for years.
