LG gram Pro 17 with RTX 5050 drops to $1,997 on Amazon, nearly $900 off

The LG gram Pro 17 is one of the few laptops that can legitimately claim to be both a productivity workhorse and light enough to forget it's in your bag. At 3.3 lbs with a 17-inch display, it shouldn't exist at this weight, yet here we are. And it’s currently on sale on Amazon for $1,997, which is nearly $900 off its original price.

As someone who appreciates simple design and powerful hardware, I’m genuinely impressed by this laptop. It packs an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H, NVIDIA RTX 5050, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD. That's a serious amount of storage and memory for a laptop this thin. The gram Pro is mainly targeted at professionals who need a reliable machine that doesn’t feel like a brick in your bag, but the RTX 5050 GPU also allows for some light gaming. The 17-inch QHD+ display runs at 144Hz, which is a nice touch for a machine that isn't marketed primarily as a gaming laptop.

Battery life is rated at up to 25 hours of video playback, which is ambitious, but even at half that you're looking at a full workday unplugged. It also passes seven MIL-STD-810H durability standards, which is important for a laptop this light.

Check out the full specs:

At $1,997, that's $903 off the $2,899 list price. For a 17-inch laptop with this spec sheet at this weight, that's a deal worth paying attention to.
