I'd get this. I sent two kids off to college with Grams, and ones who aren't particularly kind to their hardware. They're practically bulletproof, extremely lightweight and the performance is outstanding. Combine that with the extended Costco warranty and you can't go wrong. Honestly, not sure what you'd need the extra performance for, aside from some heavier duty gaming.

After defending @contractcooker in an earlier reply, I'll respectfully disagree on this point - Even if you get better hardware, longer life, and a smoother experience with a Mac, and even if the cost were equivalent (which it typically isn't), it doesn't mean that a Mac is a better option for "most people."
The Mac would be better *except* for those who are not in the Apple ecosystem, or are just accustomed to Windows, or who own Windows software or games, or otherwise need it for work, or... probably most people 😅

That's the thing about the gram. It doesn't feel premium because it uses magnesium alloy to keep the weight down. It flexes like plastic but don't let that deceive you. It is as strong as any metal. So it depends on what matters to you. Lightweight even though it is perceived as a cheaper build quality but it's not at all or heavy aluminum with no flex.

No. It's RAM is soldered. So not upgradeable.

This laptop looks great, although I wish it was a 17" screen, how much will I miss 17" compared to this size? I ordered the 17" hp i3 deal and the 17" Asus i5 deal from staples, but kind of liking specs here.

How is this compared with MacBook Air M1?
Hard to compare since they are in different categories. I have both and can give you a quick rundown. Gram has a larger screen therefore less portable. Both screens get really bright and colors are great. Gram has more RAM and upgradable storage. Depends on what you do on your laptop, you may not need it. 8gb on the Air is fine but what will happen a few years from now, who knows. Trackpad and keyboard feel nicer on the Air. The air feels more solid. Battery life has been comparable. The Gram feels much lighter than the air even though it's larger.

If you need a Windows laptop, the Gram is a great option.

Are there any reviews for this specific laptop? I have looked around and can find the larger 16" and 17" variants, but not this one specifically. I was hoping for the 14" variant with a 16:10 aspect ratio, but this seems to be pretty nice also.

Got the same gram except with an i7 from Costco about 6 months ago for $500. Was discounted and came with a Costco shop card. Super sale. Not that this isn't a good deal, but that was way better.

I'm looking into giving this as a gift for my fiancé thats doing her residency program in nuclear medicine, most people recommended gaming laptop because of how image intensive their scans are like MRI, CT images and volumes of X-rays they receive. This looks like this meets and exceeds the requirements, anyone can vouch for reliability of windows based PC nowadays? I still have my MBP from 2010 and that thing is still running like a champ, although I'm not running any graphic intensive on it, but I'm one of those guys now that "It just works". All I did was remove the optical drive and added another storage and last year change the battery too, but for 12 yo laptop i'm not complaining. I wish the software they use works with MAC, but it doesn't.

This would not be a good fit as it doesn't have a discrete gpu.

There's a lot to unpack in this comment. First you start by stating that you will get better hardware, longer life, and a smoother experience with a mac. So far I agree. Then you make the point about cost not being equivalent which in this case is sort of true as the gram is $85 less than the least expensive air. But that's still in the ballpark. I would argue at every price point Apple hardware compares favorably to the alternatives in the ways you mentioned. I think that's what's most important to most people. I've gifted or helped to set up Apple computers for several of my heretofore windows using (older) relatives and after a brief adjustment period they were happily doing the things that they had previously done on their windows machine. None of them want to go back. I guess we disagree on what constitutes "most people". I think most people want to browse the web, consume some streaming services, check email, etc. I would argue all of these experiences are similar on windows and Mac machines. Therefore you might as well go for the machine with the better hardware, which is longer lasting and gives you a smoother experience. The worst thing about switching back and forth is how copy and paste have different keyboard shortcuts. It really f$&@s with my muscle memory.

How does this laptop compare to the HP Envy from black friday? Seems like a similar price for similar specs but I'm hoping someone who knows what they're talking about (not me) can explain the differences. Thanks

Trying to find a nice lightweight laptop for my son for college. Was leaning towards this from BestBuy - https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sams...Id=6501593. Is that Samsung worth the extra $450 for mostly school work, and occasional games? Appreciate any input/thoughts
Ask your son what they will be using it for, most college students go with apple now. Window machines are in the minority in college campuses (except in specific fields)

"Most people" really depends on the age bracket IMO, apple dominates in the younger age group and I can see why (more reliable hardware, much better software, etc).

I think ASUS 14.5" OLED VivoBook is better deal for same price of $699.99

see for yourself in comparison

https://www.costco.com/ComparePro...,100986134 [costco.com]
Similar but notably different. The Gram is lighter, has a bigger screen that is touchscreen, 4GB more memory, and a *possibly* slightly slower processor. One is not better than the other, just different. Different enough to have two different customers. I'm not sure I can make use of the extra processing power (if it's there), but the Gram's lighter weight with a bigger screen that also has touch sounds nice to me. Also, the ASUS fans are notoriously loud, and I'd trust the build quality of the Gram over the ASUS deal. The only thing about the Asus that makes me want to lean that way is the OLED screen. To each their own though.

Having trouble deciding between this and the Lenovo. I'm not concerned that it's $100 more...just want the better computer long-term. Any informed opinions would be appreciated!
