LG Gram 14 (2025) — the featherweight that finally carries an enthusiast CPU
The Gram 14 (2025) at $1,232 is the current-generation featherweight: an Intel Core Ultra 5 225H with 32 GB of RAM. The CPU posts 91.36 — 53% above the ultrabook median, enthusiast band, top quartile — and reliability reads 87, up 71% on the class. Graphics log a zero: the scoring pipeline has no matched entry for the Arc 130T, a coverage gap rather than a literal score, so treat graphics expectations as unverified.
Where it holds up
Office productivity at 84.85 (high) leads the sheet, with portability at 79.7 (high) right behind — the Gram formula of serious compute in a sub-1.2 kg body. Overall performance reads 48.32 (mid) and value 52.9 (mid), the healthiest value reading of the current Gram trio. The 91.36 CPU score is the standout: four years of Gram silicon finally matching the chassis ambition.
Where it falls short
The flagged weakness is graphics — the unmatched Arc 130T entry above. The low bands follow the iGPU-only shape: gaming at 19, 3D modeling at 25, engineering CAD at 30 and photo design at 13. At $1,232 the value math is honest but not generous — the money buys the platform and the weight, not the axes the GPU cannot feed.
Price and depreciation
No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); no curve or projection applies. The 2025 cohort rate is 12% per year — a moderated modern slope, half of what early-adopters of this chassis family once ate.
Alternatives to consider
The Gram 14 (2024) at $954 runs the prior 125H platform at a $278 discount with the same 32 GB tier. The Gram 16 (2025) at the same $1,232 scales the platform up with performance at 80.54. The Yoga Slim 9i 14″ (Gen 10) at $1,275 is the Lenovo counter-offer: an 83.94 CPU with portability 76.4.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. The enthusiast-CPU Gram: 91.36 compute with office 84.85 and portability 79.7 in the featherweight body — graphics limited to photo 13 and gaming 19 by the unmatched iGPU entry.
