LG Gram 17 vs Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio
Verdict
The LG Gram 17 is a great choice for those looking for a laptop with great portability, fantastic battery life, really nice screen, good range of connections, and decent performance. It is ultra light and provides two-hour battery life. However, some users may find the keyboard to be too small as it includes a numpad and takes a couple weeks to get used to. Additionally, the laptop is set to too aggressively throttle in software by default and requires tweaking.
Verdict
The Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio is a great all-rounder, with a good screen, keyboard, build quality and trackpad. It has USB-A and USB-C ports for added convenience, but RAM is not upgradeable. Battery life is excellent and Windows Hello face unlock is fast and reliable. The speakers are fitted behind the keyboard between the screen, which may affect sound quality. The form factor offers more muscle and cooling than the Surface Pro but lacks some of its advantages such as having hot parts off your lap and propped up off the desk.
