We own the Intel version of this (K6500) and love it. It runs cooler and quieter than the Zenbook OLED we had, thanks to the 3050 and better cooling I guess.

I really like this laptop but the soldered RAM is what holds me back. I'm not comfortable with 16GB RAM and no ability to upgrade.

My laptop has 16GB and I almost always have two browsers on, each with about 15 tabs open, and other applications running as well. Never an issue. I don't foresee any scenario where more than 16GB is needed for 99% of users.

4K+ of video editing will run out that much ram then it'll start to sloth down.

Who is going to buy this type of laptop to do 4K+ video editing? This type of thin and light with low level GPU is designed for casual users.

Exactly! Always the same, ppl complaining "oh its only 128gb Ram". The gpu won be able to play AAA game at 16k resolution, blah blah blahhhhh it's enough for the 90% of users, so just focus on the price/specs and be real dont beach!

FYI. The spec on this laptop is sufficient for 4K vid editing but better if you max out the ram.

The LG Gram is not a performance-oriented laptop and has very weak cooling to keep down on weight and cost. This is a poor idea for intensive video editing.. buy a 3050 thin and light and it will demolish this performance-wise. 3050 ultrabook options exist from asus and lenovo

Burns your eyes? How? No brightness setting? I have no clue what the refresh rate has to do with burning of one's eyes.
