Lenovo Legion Slim 7 15.6" vs LG Gram 16

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 offers superior gaming and 3D capabilities because it includes a dedicated Nvidia RTX 3060 graphics card and a high screen refresh rate of 165Hz, both key for smooth visuals and rendering complex scenes. In contrast, the LG Gram 16, while offering good screen quality, depends on an integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics solution and a lower refresh rate of 60Hz, which are less optimal for demanding gaming and 3D tasks.

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7's screen offers crisp visuals and accurate colors due to its high resolution and color gamut coverage, great for detailed engineering work as well as everyday tasks; however, its refresh rate isn't high enough for the smooth visuals that gamers typically seek in fast-paced 3D environments. The LG Gram 16 also boasts a high-resolution display with a wide color gamut that suits general usage and professional design needs, ensuring that colors are well-reproduced and detail is sharp. Nevertheless, like the Legion Slim 7, the LG Gram 16's refresh rate is lower, so it won't deliver the fluid motion that gaming and high-end 3D graphics require.

Battery life estimate is based on a mix of common use patterns. More portable and higher performing laptops tend to have less battery life.
