LG announces the ‘world’s lightest 17-inch RTX laptop’
LG is teasing the 2026 Gram Pro laptops that will be fully unveiled at CES, including what the company claims is the “world’s lightest 17-inch RTX laptop.” The LG Gram Pro 17 (17Z90UR) and Gram Pro 16 (16Z90U) will introduce a new ultra-light “Aerominum material” developed by LG that aims to reduce a laptop’s weight while reinforcing strength and scratch resistance.
The LG Gram Pro 17 will feature a 2,560 x 1600 display, paired with Nvidia’s RTX 5050 laptop GPU that has just 8GB of VRAM. LG claims it will still provide “ample performance for graphics-intensive tasks, content creation, and gaming.” You won’t be able to run most modern games at maxed-out settings in a playable state though, so you shouldn’t consider the Gram Pro 17 as a dedicated gaming laptop. LG hasn’t revealed how much the Gram Pro 17 will actually weigh, but notes that it will be exclusive to the US at launch.
We also don’t know the weight of the Gram Pro 16 yet — which features a 2,880 x 1,800 OLED display and Intel’s latest Core Ultra processors — but LG similarly says that this will be “the lightest 16-inch laptop in its class to feature both on-device and cloud-based AI.” The price and release dates for both laptops haven’t been announced yet, but LG might be holding this back until the official CES launch next week.
