 LG gram is Designed to be Thin and Lightweight
Without Sacrificing Performance

SINGAPORE, June 29,
2016 — LG Electronics
(LG) today showcased its brand-new 15.6-inch LG gram laptop at the LG IT Media
Launch. Surprisingly lightweight, the 15Z960 boasts a
large screen and is capable of superb performance. The
highly portable LG gram is an ideal choice for working professionals as well as
students who are constantly on the go. It will be available from mid-August at
major retail outlets.

Despite increasing the screen size, LG has managed to
maintain the weight of the model equivalent to its predecessors. This design
feat was made possible by implementing the company’s latest weight-shedding technologies
such as the optimum PCB design and high-density batteries. The design team also
shed weight through creative design updates, such as minimizing the bezel size.
These innovative endeavors made it possible to mount a 15-inch screen into a laptop
body that is similar in size to 14-inch laptops. The body is also made from
magnesium alloys, materials widely used in manufacturing racecars or spacecraft.
These materials were chosen for their lightweight and durable qualities. LG
gram also has seven hours of battery life, giving on-the-go professionals
mobility freedom and an ease of mind.

Another hallmark of the 15Z960 is its powerful performance.
It uses the advanced sixth-generation Intel Core i5 or i7 and the screen supports
a Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080) IPS display. All of these come together to create
a compact, lightweight, high-performance laptop that can really boost any
user’s productivity.

LG gram provides comfortable usability; it is able to
connect with a variety of other devices through multiple ports, including the
new USB-C port. The multifunctional USB-C port can be used to transfer content
to exterior screens and users can use this port to quickly charge the laptop or
a mobile phone. USB-C simplifies the user experience, allowing users to do
everything with just one cable.

It also comes packed with features to provide more
comfort and convenience. The gram’s keyboard provides ergonomically curved letter
and number keys ensuring user comfort. Meanwhile, the Hi-Fi Audio system minimizes
sound loss when using headphones. With the instant booting feature, starting up
is as simple as just opening the laptop. The 15Z960 also has an advanced
Reader Mode software, which allows customized optimal screen conditions for
reading (Reader Mode) or watching movies (Movie Mode). These
features make the 15Z960 speedy, convenient and perfect for use in multiple locations.

Recognised for its stunning design and capabilities, the
LG gram has won several awards including the 2016 CES Innovation Award in
January 2016 and other prestigious design awards like the iF Gold Award and the
Reddot Award.

“We
are proud that we were able to make the LG gram so lightweight without
compromising its performance,” said Brian Yi, Product Director at LG’s Home
Entertainment Department. “The LG gram is a highly productive laptop that
incorporates both our innovative technology and our drive to improve, and we
will continue to innovate to make even greater products to meet the needs of
our consumers.”
