LG Gram SuperSlim vs Samsung Galaxy Book4 Ultra
The Verdict
LG Gram SuperSlim excels as an ultraportable workhorse at 2.18 lbs with its featherlight magnesium chassis and exceptional 12-hour battery endurance. Its 15.6-inch OLED display delivers vibrant colors despite 1080p resolution, powered by Intel Core Ultra 7 155H with 16GB LPDDR5X RAM. Samsung Galaxy Book4 Ultra commands premium positioning with a larger 16-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X touchscreen at 2880x1800 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, backed by the more powerful Core Ultra 9 185H. Connectivity differs meaningfully—LG offers dual Thunderbolt but lacks USB-A, while Samsung includes both USB-A and SD card slot for professionals. Samsung's 1TB storage doubles LG's 512GB and remains expandable. At $700 more, Galaxy Book4 Ultra justifies costs through superior processing power, resolution clarity, and versatility, making it ideal for demanding creators. LG Gram SuperSlim remains the stronger choice for mobile professionals prioritizing portability and battery life over raw performance.
