Because we aren't all iSheep who want to be locked into Apple's disposable products ecosystem.
Because we want to upgrade, repair, and modify our devices as we see fit without the threat of lawsuits.
Because we want to buy replacement parts for our devices without jumping through hoops.
Because we want to repair our devices when they have trouble instead of being told by apple's "geniuses" that they need to be replaced.

I used to love apple. I learned my lesson. Steve Jobs must be rolling in his grave.

I suggest going costco route especially if you have their visa card. I have 10th gen gram great laptop except glossy screen and its almost 2 years old with multiple small issues already happening. Will be doing "troubleshooting" with Costco Concierge and hopefully have it returned for store credit or how ever costco handles this.

Last I checked, Win 11 (non-Pro) is the first OS that requires you to be signed in to a MS account to use your own computer. May not be a problem for the "average consumer", IDK.

For anyone wondering between the two processors, they are very, very similar despite the difference in i7 vs. i5

https://www.notebookcheck.net/i5-...596.0.html
The Cinebench R23 numbers look wonky on that page. Based on CPU monkey's R23 numbers, the i7 is 8% faster for single-core and 23% faster for multi-core. IMO that warrants a 10% higher price tag for the i7 system.

There is also a trade-off for that. It encrypts your hard drive and uploads the encryption key to your online account. This way your data on the device is protected in case of theft or unauthorized use. I personally use Linux on my daily driver but we can't be hypocrites. We accept the fact that our phones require online accounts in order to install any application from an app store or to do cloud backups, etc. Is there really that much of a difference having your desktop do something similar? If you're doing something sensitive, get yourself a LiveUSB and boot into a clean environment every time, even on a laptop that has Windows 10 Home.

I tried to buy this product multiple times, but nothing worked. I already tried to use different payment option and different machines. Still failed to complete the order. Is this usual thing? Buydig customer service doesn't seem to work during the weekend.

I believe the benchmark numbers do not apply to this thin and light laptop since everything just thermal throttles. For a thin and light laptop, i5 is probably the preferred option since it is relative better on battery.

Anyone know how the thermals are on this model?

I do know anything is usually better than Dell's XPS line when it comes heat management..

LG Gram line is seriously underrated. I have the 13" version from a generation back. It was a lateral upgrade from Dell XPS. It is lighter (Magnesium vs Aluminium). Thermals are better and exhaust blows to the back, not to the bottom. So you can actually hold it on your lap. You can also lay it on a soft surface without blocking the vents. The battery life is also much better than the XPS (it's pretty obvious if you look at capacities). After trying several Thinkpads, and then XPS, this is the first travel laptop I am actually happy with.

Can this power two 4k external monitors at 60hz or above? I have this machine from 2 years ago, it can power 1 4k monitor at 60hz, the other 4k monitor only at 30Hz.
