LG gram Debuts Aerominum for a Premium Metallic Look and Reinforced Durability, With Advanced Dual AI to Boost Productivity
LG Electronics (LG) is set to introduce its 2026 LG gram lineup at CES 2026, marking a bold new chapter in its decade-long leadership in ultra-portable laptops. This year’s release pushes the boundaries of mobility, durability, and intelligent productivity with the debut of Aerominum — an ultra-light, high-strength material engineered to elevate both design and performance.
Lighter Than Ever, Stronger Than Before
At the heart of the 2026 LG gram evolution is Aerominum, LG’s newly developed advanced composite material. Designed to reduce weight without compromising structural integrity, Aerominum enables a thinner, lighter chassis reinforced for everyday resilience. The new models meet military-grade durability standards, offer improved scratch resistance, and maintain long-term reliability for life on the move.
Its distinctive aeroplate structure and refined atelier brushing finish deliver a sleek metallic aesthetic — premium in look and feel, yet remarkably lightweight. LG has effectively resolved the classic engineering trade-off between portability and durability.
Dual AI for Smarter Productivity Anywhere
Select models in the 2026 lineup feature advanced dual AI capabilities, integrating on-device intelligence with cloud-based AI to deliver seamless performance across different environments.
These laptops support Microsoft Copilot+ PC alongside LG’s proprietary gram chat On-Device AI, powered by the upgraded EXAONE 3.5 sLLM. Even without internet connectivity, users can access fast, private AI assistance for tasks such as summarization, content drafting, and workflow optimization. Equipped with the latest processors and optimized system architecture, the new LG gram models are built to handle demanding multitasking, creative production, and AI-intensive workflows with efficiency and speed.
Seamless Ecosystem Integration and Enhanced Security
Mobility extends beyond hardware. The enhanced gram Link transforms the LG gram into a universal connectivity hub, enabling seamless file sharing, screen mirroring, and content transfer across Android, iOS, and webOS-based LG devices — including TVs, monitors, and projectors. By bridging three major ecosystems, gram Link eliminates traditional OS barriers and streamlines cross-platform collaboration.
For added peace of mind, LG ThinQ enables remote device management, allowing users to lock or erase their PC if lost — ensuring sensitive data remains protected.

The LG gram Pro 16 stands out as the lightest 16-inch laptop in its class to integrate both on-device and cloud-based AI. Featuring a 16-inch WQXGA+ (2,880 x 1,800) OLED display, it delivers vibrant colors, sharp detail, and rich contrast for professional and creative use.
Powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra processors, the device ensures smooth multitasking and responsive performance, making it an ideal companion for demanding daily workloads.
“The 2026 LG gram represents a new milestone in our decade-long pursuit of ultimate portability,” said Lee Choong-hwoan, head of the Display Business at LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “With Aerominum, we’ve solved the paradox of weight versus durability while achieving a refined metallic design. Combined with advanced dual AI and security solutions, these laptops empower users to work, create, and connect seamlessly wherever they are.”
