The six new models are:

  • gram 16 (16Z90Q)
  • gram 14 (14Z90Q)
  • gram 2-in-1 (16T90Q)

  • LG gram (16MQ70)

The premium laptops which come in sleek and ultra-light designs have been upgraded to the latest Gen4 NVMeTM SSD alongside a low-voltage LPDDR5 RAM.

With these changes, the performance of the 2022 models are now about 22 percent better than their 2021 counterparts.

Specifically, the LG gram 16MQ70 also comes with +view, the series’ first-ever portable monitor.

Elevated user experience

The 2022 LG gram laptops feature LG Glance by Mirametrix, an innovative AI-based software that recognizes the user and enhances security and convenience.

Among its capabilities are:

  • locking the screen automatically when the user is away from their laptop
  • alerting the user and blurring content when someone is peeking from their shoulders

All 2022 models also come with face log-in, AI-noise cancelling, and a built-in Full HD webcam for more optimized video conference.

Superb picture quality

The newest range of gram models also come with WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600) resolution IPS panels for sharp and vibrant images.

And in addition to 99 percent coverage of the DCI-P3 color space and 16:10 aspect ratio, LG’s IPS displays are also anti-glare.

gram 2-in-1, +view: Versatility

The new 16- and 14-inch LG gram 2-in-1 models enable users to switch between a laptop and tablet in seconds.

They both come pre-installed with drawing and notetaking apps fit for the LG Stylus Pen.

Meanwhile, the LG +view gives users a second screen for the gram 16MQ70 model.

The portable 16-inch monitor with detachable cover connects via USB-C, helping to extend the digital workspace easily to as large as a 32:10 aspect ratio.

MacBook Neo already “supply constrained” amid unexpected demand

New purchases are reportedly getting delayed.

Published

It’s been a crazy month for Apple fans on a budget. The debuts of the iPhone 17e and the MacBook Neo have brought the classic Apple experience to a wider market. Though the former is a bright spot on its own, the new MacBook Neo is currently breaking the company’s expectations as new orders are already “supply constrained.”

Last week, Tim Cook held an earnings call (via Six Colors) which includes the latest additions to Apple’s lineup. For the affordable iPhone, Cook gave a special shoutout as “the newest addition to what is already the strongest iPhone lineup we’ve ever had.” However, he was much more appreciative for the MacBook Neo’s role in the company’s notebook lineup.

Responding to a query about the new notebook, Cook says that the company “undercalled the level of enthusiasm” generated by the MacBook Neo. He also cited “tremendous enthusiasm” for the device in his main presentation.

Though he didn’t have the numbers to bolster his claims, he did give anecdotal examples of public schools switching over to Apple from Chromebooks and Windows PCs.

Finally, he says that the MacBook Neo is currently “supply constrained,” meaning new purchases will likely come with a delay before delivery.

Outside of the corporate perspective, there has been a lot of excitement for the notebook. Even if it uses the A18 Pro chip, the MacBook Neo promises a powerful notebook experience as is typical of Apple’s more traditional MacBooks. And to top it all off, it starts at only US$ 599, creating one of the most tempting offers for users who want to dip their toes into the Apple ecosystem.
