LG gram Pro 16 vs BMAX X17 Turbo Laptop

The LG gram Pro 16 is the better laptop for anyone who wants a big, sharp screen and real graphics power in a very light body. Its OLED panel, RTX 5050 GPU and 1TB SSD put it well ahead of the BMAX X17 Turbo on display, graphics and storage. The BMAX is the simpler, sturdier-feeling budget machine: a plain 15.6-inch 1080p IPS screen, an Ultra 5 chip and 512GB of storage. Owners of the gram praise the light weight, OLED quality and battery life, and complain about backorders and the switch to facial recognition over a fingerprint reader. The BMAX is the pick only if you want a basic 15.6-inch work laptop and do not need a high-resolution screen or a dedicated GPU.

• Choose the LG gram Pro 16 if you want a large OLED screen, dedicated RTX 5050 graphics and 1TB of storage in a laptop that weighs about 1.36 kg.
• Choose the BMAX X17 Turbo if you need a plain 15.6-inch laptop for office work and web use and do not need a high-resolution display or a dedicated graphics card.
