Introducing the LG Gram Fold, a 17-inch OLED tablet that folds into a 12-inch computer
LG has unveiled its first foldable laptop, the LG Gram Fold, which can transform from a 17-inch OLED tablet to a 12-inch computer with a keyboard. Similar to laptops like the ASUS Zenbook 17 Fold and Lenovo ThinkPad X1, you can use it as that giant PC screen and connect it to an accompanying Bluetooth keyboard. Or you can fold it in half to use the top part as the display and the bottom as a keyboard.
According to LG, it tested the LG Gram Fold to withstand 30,000 folds. It might seem way off from Samsung's tests of 200,000 times for its foldable phones. But you'll more likely fold and unfold a smartphone more times than a computer or tablet.
This foldable laptop has a QXGA+ resolution, supports stylus pens, and runs on a 13th-generation Intel Core i5 processor and a fast RAM (LG claims it's 15 times faster than an LPDDR5 5,200 memory). It also features Windows 11 and Sync On Mobile for easy data transfer from phones.
The LG Gram Fold will launch in Korea in October for 4.99 million won (around CA$4996.25), but the first 200 buyers can get it for 3.99 million won (~CA$3995.54) and receive a mouse and a stylus for free. The device will not include these accessories otherwise.
