LG Gram 14 (2023) review

LG Gram 14 (2023) — 0.99 kg with the line's weakest value card

The LG Gram 14 2023 at $954 is a premium ultrabook with a Core i7 1360P and 32 GB of RAM. Weight is the flagged strength at 0.99 kg — 32% under the class median of 1.46 — with mobility at 81 (+26.6%) behind it. The composite score is the flagged weakness at 38, 22% below the class median.

Where it holds up

Portability posts 83.3 (high) on the sub-kilogram body — the Gram formula delivered intact — with office productivity at 84.85 (high) as the strongest absolute axis. The 32 GB ceiling matches the class norm, and the P-series chip holds the office pace the line is bought for. For a carry-first 14-inch at this weight, the working axes hold.

Where it falls short

The composite flag at 38 (−22.4%) is the honest summary of the platform's placement, with photo design at 17 (low) — the sharpest single miss — alongside gaming 23 (low), modeling 27 (low) and CAD 30 (low). Value reads 17.2 (low): the weight premium against mid-tier compute. No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); the 2023 cohort rate is 10.62% per year, gentle.

Price and depreciation

No curve or projection applies without an anchor; the 10.62% class rate is flat-band. At $954 the ask prices the sub-kilogram chassis over every other axis on the card.

Alternatives to consider

The LG Gram 15 (2024) at the same $954 in this list is the bigger-canvas sibling; the Surface Laptop Go 3 at the same money is the compact rival with portability 92.8 top; and the LG Gram 15 (2025) at $1,232 is the platform step with CPU 87.88.

Bottom line

Fairly priced for the class. The weight-first 14-inch: 0.99 kg, portability 83.3 high, mobility 81 high and office 84.85 high — against the 38 composite, photo 17 low and value 17.2 low. The scale is the product; everything else is the price of it.
