LG Gram 15 (2025) review

LG Gram 15 (2025) — the yearly refresh with the same honest graphics floor

The LG Gram 15 2025 at $1,232 is a premium ultrabook with a Ryzen AI 5 340 and 32 GB of RAM. Graphics performance is the flagged strength at 18.47 — 4.8× the class median of 3.84, an everyday-graphics level — with reliability at 85 (+66.7%) and CPU performance at 87.88 (+46.9%) behind it. No weakness is flagged; gaming nonetheless reads 30, the lone low band.

Where it holds up

Photo design posts 79 (high) — the strongest creative axis — with office productivity at 84.85 (high) leading the sheet, modeling and CAD at 47 (mid) and portability 61.3 (mid) on the 15-inch body the Gram keeps light. The CPU flag at 87.88 is the top ultrabook reading in this batch, and Grand Theft Auto V clears its minimum bar while Far Cry 5 misses it — the measured boundary of the tier.

Where it falls short

Gaming nonetheless reads 30 — the integrated-graphics floor in numbers. Value reads 55.5 (mid), the premium-line pricing against mid-tier compute. No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); the 2025 cohort rate is 12% per year, early-curve.

Price and depreciation

No curve or projection applies without an anchor; the 12% class rate leaves a real slide ahead. At $1,232 the ask prices the platform step and the weight formula.

Alternatives to consider

The LG Gram 15 (2024) at $954 in this list is the prior platform at $278 less; the Yoga 7 Gen 10 at $1,275 is the convertible-shaped twin of the same silicon; and the Surface Laptop 13 (2025) at the same $1,232 is the ARM reading with the office ceiling.

Bottom line

Fairly priced for the class. The refreshed Gram formula: CPU 87.88 at the class top, reliability 85, photo 79 high — against gaming 30 low and a 12% depreciation current. The weight is the product; the graphics floor is the price.
