It's not often that the design features of a device outweigh the cost, but the [LG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-gram-pro-16) Gram 14 laptop is showing off just that. With a purported price point of $850, the LG Gram 14 laptop is packed with an [Intel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-gram-superslim) Core i5 5200 processor, 8GB of DDR3L RAM and a 128GB SSD. The laptop comes in at 2.16-pounds and is kept quite slim and compact with a metal body made of nano carbon magnesium alloy.

The LG Gram 14 laptop looks great from the above specs, but it's rounded off with a battery pack that's purported to provide up to 21-hours of usage on a single charge. This is impressive for premium laptops, so seeing such a number attached to a laptop at this price level is intriguing.
