I'm searching for the top 1500$ laptop suited for productivity. This isn't for gaming, as I already have a desktop. I need a laptop with long battery life and a good display. I've been checking out the Dell XPS 13 11th gen but have heard mixed reviews.
You'll find everything available in one of the 2021 LG Gram 14, 16, and 17 inch versions. The Gram 14's hardware is nearly the same as the current XPS 13, though it features a significantly larger battery. No laptop is flawless, so you're likely to hear some criticisms about the LG Grams as well. The main issue is their extreme lightness; the case and lid feel somewhat fragile, even though LG claims the build quality meets "military standards of durability and reliability."
I've mostly only been informed about problems with the Intel Iris Xe, and the LG also seems to have similar issues.
The flickering black screen was caused by faulty drivers. This expert review on Amazon proved accurate after further investigation.
