I upgraded from a 13" HP EliteBook and somehow this 17" LG Ultrabook is lighter and it fits into the slot in my old laptop bag for 15" laptops. I'm a mouse guy so not having touchscreen isn't a deal breaker as I never used it on the HP.

I watched the Dave Lee review on youtube of this computer and I was impressed! I was looking for a lightweight, large screen, laptop with a substantial battery life. I use Citrix so I am not able to get the full battery life, but I knew that going in. I get about 5 hours of use with multiple windows and programs running (outlook, skype, excel, etc...) which is pretty good! The fan is quiet and it doesn't get as hot as some of my other laptops when running Citrix. I also own the new Macbook Pro 16"--which I love, but it is a bit heavy and not very portable. The LG Gram 17" is VERY light and makes working in different rooms of the house (since we are "hunkered down") easy peasy. On the more technical side...my favorite keyboard is still the Apple Magic Keyboard and I also really like the Lenovo X1 Carbon keyboard, but the LG gram keyboard is pretty decent. I like the feel of it and I like having the numeric keyboard. I was surprised by the quality of the screen and the sound was pretty decent, too. It is not as robust as the Macbook Pro 16", but it was better than I expected it to be. I am not a gamer and I bought this for work, so it really fulfills all my expectations.

The Gram 17 is perfect for business people like myself. I easily upgraded the 16 GB RAM to 40 GB RAM and it is super fast with no hesitations. Highly recommend you buy the Samsung 32 GB RAM, not other brands, as they have a little bit of trouble during installation. FHD 17 inch screen is better than any laptop I have ever owned. I mean, it is beautiful to look at and spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations and Netflix movies all look fantastic. The large keyboard is another plus (although I could not find any keyboard covers), love the 10-key. This laptop only weighs 3 lbs and is lighter than my iPad (with the case). Truly portable and convenient when I go back and forth to my courtyard every day. 1TB SSD comes with 2 512GB drives, wish they had one, but tons of hard drive space all the same. This is not a gaming machine, it is one of the fastest business laptops you can buy and you will not be disappointed. Love this computer.
