0:04 description so here at the LG Booth they are showing off a ton of stuff they've
0:09 got the W7 TV which is super super thin
0:13 it's their new flagship OLED they've got a new line of what they're calling Nano
0:18 cell which sounds on the surface like it's kind of similar to quantum dot Nano
0:23 cell TVs that are achieving 1500 nits Peak brightness they've got support in
0:28 their entire 2017 lineup for all four
0:31 HDR standards that are on the market right now hdr10 hlg Dolby and advanced
0:38 HDR from Technicolor on the monitor side of things LGA is showing off a super
0:44 high pixel density 21 1/2 in 4k display
0:49 so that thing's like crazy sharp moving
0:52 on though to what was for us really the star of the show the updated LG Graham I
0:58 really liked the original gram I respected LG's decision to take a
1:03 concept we're going to make the lightest laptop and really go all in on it but
1:07 there were a couple of compromises that I wasn't the biggest fan of so number
1:11 one is battery life wasn't amazing on the gam well now all three 13 14 and 15
1:17 in are equipped with 60w hour batteries to go along with Seventh Generation kbl
1:21 Lake Core I5 or core i7 processors they're all still running 1080p displays
1:26 which is the right move if you're trying to conserve battery life and you're
1:29 trying to conserve weight and Hallelujah
1:33 they've got backlit keyboards now that makes a huge difference to me because
1:38 I'm often working in a dly lit room because I don't care about my eyes
1:41 apparently the last one is that the 15in has Thunderbolt 3 if you're into
1:45 connecting your super mobile lightweight device to like an external 12 drive
1:50 storage array or whatever the case may be and as before they all come in under
1:55 1 kilogram so thanks to you guys for watching thanks to uh who do I usually
