Pros and Cons

LG gram Style

Strengths

The performance with 13th gen is nice and slick, even with loads of tabs open and multitasking.
The gorgeous 120 HZ OLED screen is incredible, very color accurate (100% srgb, 96% Adobe RGB, 99% DCI P3) and has a high pixel density (wqhd+ resolution).
The design is subjective but I think it's very stylish, and the laptop feels super portable and ultra lightweight.
The performance with integrated XE Graphics is sufficient for casual gaming and photo/video editing.
The dual 3w stereo speakers are nice and loud with clear vocals decent bass, although they can get muffled on your lap or at louder volumes.
The LG Gram Style is one of the most exciting laptops made in a while, if you can afford it.
The laptop's performance is more than fast enough for day-to-day workload.

Weaknesses

The price is just a little bit too high for something with a low wattage CPU and no discreet GPU.
There's no touch input on the screen, which might be a drawback for some users.
The OLED screens are more power hungry, resulting in shorter battery life (around 7-8 hours) compared to non-OLED models.
The fans can get loud when running benchmarks or demanding tasks.
The laptop's hinge is not very robust and the screen can wobble a bit.
There's no discreet GPU, which might limit gaming performance or video editing capabilities.
The battery life could be better, especially for a high-end model like this one.

MSI Raider A18 HX

Strengths

The laptop has impressive heat pipe architecture, with two big beefy fans and six heat pipes, making it ideal for heavy gaming and demanding tasks.
The laptop has upgradable RAM (32 GB) and storage (two SSDs), making it easy to upgrade in the future.
The laptop features Windows Hello facial recognition, adding an extra layer of security.
The battery life is not great, but when you have a powerful computer like this, it's not as much of an issue.
The Wi-Fi card is replaceable, which is a plus, especially since the MediaTek Wi-Fi cards can cause connectivity issues.
The laptop has a large thermal pad under the SSD, making it easy to install a double-sided SSD in the future.
The laptop's design and build quality are impressive, despite some minor flaws.
