LG Electronics USA (LG) is expanding its thinnest and lightest lineup of laptops with the LG gram SuperSlim in a crisp white colorway. The 2024 LG gram SuperSlim (15Z90ST-G.AAW4U1) stands out with an upgraded processor and sleek profile. Customers can now purchase the new LG gram SuperSlim for $799, a $600 savings from its retail price of $1399. Designed with ultra-portability in mind, the new 15.6-inch white model measures just 0.49-inches and weighs a scant 2.18lbs.

With Intel Evo Edition powered by Intel Core Ultra 5 125H processors, the 15Z90ST-G.AAW4U1 delivers improved performance for more productivity, content creation and entertainment. Powered by an Intel Core ️ Ultra Processor with an integrated AI Boost, this LG gram SuperSlim is faster than previous-generation CPU-only systems. Intel Core Ultra processors include a specialized AI processing unit alongside supercharged performance to support advanced, innovative use cases and demanding applications. The architecture enables smooth graphics and power efficiency for improved battery life.




The latest LG gram SuperSlim is also equipped with Intel Arc graphics and has a brilliant 15.6-inch Full HD OLED display with up to 100 percent DCI-P3 color gamut coverage and VESA DisplayHDR True Black, delivering exceptional image resolution with true-to-life detail and stunning, deep black levels.

Why would they launch a meteor lake laptop now? Seems like a missed opportunity 2-3 months ahead of Lunar Lake.

Due to having a lot of stock of old chips and it being heavily discounted?

Sounds like quick e-waste to me...
As usual, the CPU does not stop working just because something newer is released.
But it does feel a bit awkward to tout a design around the previous gen, especially since Lunar Lake is aimed squarely at this kind of ultra-portables.

Also, a special rofl at the $1,400 MSRP.

But 2.18 lbs is only 989 grams, not 2024?

;-)
My initial thought was that this was a record weight for a laptop with a 20" or something, then I thought it was a typo and it was a 1024 gram laptop, but then why not skim off 25g and have it under 1kg, now I am just confused.

Yeah, either this is a really silly name for the actual product of the writer missed the "number - gram" is read by people used to using grams as the number being of weight (which it is not), or the writer missed this point and just went with the year of release and this odd name, which would also be fair if not used to grams.

LG "gram" line of laptops exist since 2014, since they offered the below 1 kg laptop model, lightest one on the market back then (so "gram" actually references the weight written in grams instead of kilos for the first time).

Writing the model name with lower case + year name is a constant source of jokes on the metric side of the world. :p

Can't imagine such a thin/light laptop handling the power and heat requirements of Intel CPUs, even on Intel 4 lithography. Their new architecture supposedly coming end of year will be a big improvement.

Then you don't understand modern CPUs. There is no requirement besides the base TDP. Anything above that will be used if thermals allow it. It's that simple.

$799 isn't bad for something that will end up in the trash in 2 years.
