"It's the new year, and with it comes CES 2026, the tech industry's first major showcase of the year. This is the time when the biggest names show off what they have in store. Laptops are a major focus at the event, and this year's offerings range from polished updates to bold, innovative designs that push the boundaries of personal computing."
"Kicking off the list is the LG Gram Pro 17, which could be one of the most intriguing Windows laptops of 2026 thanks to a new material called Aerominum. Developed in-house, Aeronium is designed to reduce weight while maintaining structural durability. It allows the laptop to remain ultraportable without feeling fragile. LG even claims that it will be the world's lightweight RTX laptop."
"Inside its sleek body, LG's Gram Pro 17 is set to house a new Intel Core Ultra series processor (likely from Intel's Panther Lake series), an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card, and a high resolution LCD screen. A configuration like this will make the laptop a must-have for users who want a solid, everyday work machine and a creative powerhouse."
