LG Gram Pro 16 2024 OR M3 Macbook Pro 16
I have these 2 options. I don't game. I like to have a crazy amount of browser tabs open. Battery life is extremely important to me and I hate throttling. I can see myself using some CPU and memory intensive professional software for engineering in the future. Longevity and futureproofing is EXTREMELY important for me. I want it to last at least 5 years. My current dell XPS is a POS with 2 hours of battery life and broken trackpad. I mostly store pdf files like textbooks and MS Office documents and coding programs on my laptop.
LG Gram Pro - $1800 - 32 GB Ram, 1 TB SSD, 16 inch, 155h, RTX 3050, OLED, 120 Hz.
Macbook Pro - $2429 - 36 GB Ram, 512 GB SSD, 16 inch, 12 core CPU 18 core GPU, Mini-LED, 120 Hz.
What's best for me?
any update? i have heard about overheat issues with 2023-2024 Grams because they have only 1 fan.
Mine has 2 fans & I've not had any overheating issues at all. Try one out--buy it directly from LG--they have a 30 return if you buy directly from them.
Good luck with whatever you end up buying.
BTW, here's a review of the Gram I have from Lisa at Mobile Tech Review:
