Choosing between the Dell Latitude 5330 and the LG Gram 16 depends on your priorities. If you are looking for longer battery life and a larger, higher-resolution screen, the LG Gram 16 is the better option. However, if your focus is on a more portable and slightly more affordable laptop with good general performance, the Dell Latitude 5330 would be suitable. The LG Gram 16 also provides silent, fanless operation, which may be a significant advantage if you prefer a quieter working environment. Keep in mind that the LG Gram has a better webcam and a larger screen aspect ratio, which could improve your experience when watching videos or multitasking. Give Feedback

The LG Gram 16 has a better screen than the Dell Latitude 5330 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Dell Latitude 5330's display, while adequate for tasks like web browsing and document editing, may lack the high resolution, brightness, and quality panel that general users appreciate for clarity and vibrancy. For engineering and design work, the same screen's limited color gamut coverage means that it might not display colors as accurately as demanded by those fields. When it comes to gaming and 3D applications, the Latitude's lower refresh rate could lead to less fluid motion, while the LG Gram 16, despite having a better resolution and panel that benefits both general use and color-critical tasks, also falls short with a refresh rate that's not ideal for the fast-paced visuals favored in gaming environments.

The LG Gram 16 and Dell Latitude 5330 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Dell Latitude 5330 and LG Gram 16 are both equipped with integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics and have standard screen refresh rates of 60Hz, which are adequate for casual gaming but may fall short for high-end gaming and 3D applications where dedicated GPUs and higher refresh rates are pivotal. While the LG Gram has a slightly better CPU and a larger, higher quality display, neither laptop is geared specifically towards gaming, which means games that demand extensive GPU capabilities and high refresh rates may not perform optimally on these devices.

Florian Glaser | January 2023
"The LG Gram 16 is a lightweight device with stability issues. The LG Gram 16Z90Q with a Core i7-1260P is made with portability in mind and places less of a focus on users with high demands on performance. The compact and light chassis is particularly practical when you are on the go. The device is not only comfortably small and lightweight, it also boasts a great battery life. When connected to mains, on the other hand, the 16-inch device is rather disappointing. The standard cooling mode causes extreme volatility in terms of CPU, SSD and iGPU performance. The meager stability of the chassis may also put off some potential buyers."
