LG Updates Its Gram Laptop Line Ahead of CES 2025: Hybrid AI Features and Cutting-Edge Performance

By Shakir Bukhari

 

LG is kicking off the year with a game-changing update to its Gram laptop series, introducing an innovative blend of on-device and cloud-based AI technologies. The 2025 lineup, set to debut at CES 2025, redefines lightweight computing with hybrid AI capabilities, Intel’s latest processors, and unmatched portability. Here's a detailed look at what LG’s refreshed Gram lineup has to offer.




Revolutionizing Productivity with Gram AI

LG's proprietary Gram AI takes centre stage in the new lineup, merging local and cloud-based intelligence for a smarter, more responsive user experience:




  • On-Device AI: Powered by LG’s EXAONE large language model, Gram AI offers features like "Time Travel," enabling users to revisit web pages, files, and media offline with ease.

  • Cloud-Based AI: Through the GPT-4o-driven "Gram Chat Cloud," users can leverage advanced capabilities like email drafting, scheduling, and comprehensive task management. The first year of this subscription service is free.

These hybrid AI features aim to deliver a seamless, personalized computing experience, adapting to individual user needs while ensuring data security and efficiency.

Unleashing the Power of Intel's Next-Gen Processors

The 2025 Gram models boast Intel’s latest Core Ultra H-Series (Arrow Lake) and V-Series (Lunar Lake) processors:




  • Gram Pro 17: Featuring an Arrow Lake processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 graphics, this model is ideal for resource-intensive tasks like video editing and gaming.

  • Gram Pro 16: Equipped with Lunar Lake and optimized for AI-driven workloads, this is LG’s first "Copilot+ PC."

  • Gram Pro 2-in-1: A CES Innovation Award winner, it offers stylus support and a versatile OLED display option.

  • Gram Book: Targeted at budget-conscious users, it delivers solid performance with an older Intel Core i5 processor, making it a practical choice for everyday computing.

What Sets the 2025 Lineup Apart?

  1. Stunning Displays: Users can choose high-resolution options, including a 120Hz OLED display on the 2-in-1 model.

  2. Enhanced Connectivity: The upgraded Gram Link 2.0 ensures seamless file sharing across devices and allows users to take phone calls directly on their laptops.

  3. Portability Meets Power: With thicknesses as slim as 0.49 inches and weights starting at 2.73 pounds, the Gram series remains true to its legacy of lightweight design while offering robust hardware.




Challenges and Opportunities

While the Gram Pro models promise stellar performance, LG’s segmentation strategy—distributing top-tier features across different models—might leave some users wishing for a single, all-encompassing device. Additionally, the Gram Book’s entry-level specs, such as its 720p webcam and 60Hz display, could struggle against similarly priced competitors like Apple’s MacBook Air.




On the bright side, LG’s hybrid AI approach is a forward-thinking strategy. The combination of EXAONE’s local processing and GPT-4o’s expansive cloud capabilities sets a new benchmark for intelligent computing.

What’s Next?

Pricing and availability details remain under wraps, but LG’s showcase at CES 2025 is expected to reveal more insights. For now, the Gram 2025 lineup positions itself as a strong contender in the premium laptop segment, appealing to tech enthusiasts, professionals, and casual users alike.




Stay tuned for more updates as CES 2025 unfolds. LG’s latest innovations are shaping up to be a game-changer in the world of laptops, blending advanced AI with portability and performance like never before.

ChatGPT’s New Unified View: Voice, Live Transcripts & Maps — Speak, See, and Scan in One Chat

  OpenAI has reshaped how we talk to AI: ChatGPT now blends voice, live transcripts, and visual outputs (like maps and images) directly inside the regular chat window. That means you can speak naturally, watch a running transcript appear, and see interactive visuals, all inside the same conversation thread. This update cuts friction, boosts accessibility, and moves ChatGPT closer to a true multimodal assistant. Why this matters This change removes the old “voice-only” silo where audio lived on a separate screen. Now, voice input and audio responses live alongside the chat history and any visuals the model produces, so follow-ups, maps, and previous context are always visible while you talk. For practical tasks (directions, travel planning, hands-free research), that continuity is a big usability win. Compatibility & availability Platforms: The integrated voice experience is rolling out across mobile (iOS and Android) and the web. Rollout timing: The update began rolling out in ...
