A day in life of most people now revolves around video calls, virtual classes and online games. This means owning the perfect laptop has never been more important, since we use them all day long for work, play, socializing and everything in between.

For everyday use, it doesn’t get much better than a portable computer, but getting the right hardware and knowing how to get the most out of them are crucial to getting through the day stress-free. Here are five ways your laptop can help out during periods of social-distancing, and why LG gram is ideal for getting you to where you want to be – without actually being there yourself.

Live Performances At Home

more enjoyed the show on a screen. With a multitude of streaming platforms available today, all you really need is a laptop that delivers immersive multimedia experiences that make you feel like you’re there in person, and a large display always rules supreme when it comes to bringing streams to life.

The LG gram uses a tall 16:10 aspect ratio boasting a high resolution to help users tackle every daily task with ease. Whether you’re watching videos online, surfing the web or handling your work away from the office, the LG gram range has you covered.

Connecting From Home

Who would have thought a video call would become the primary form of communication with our loved ones and colleagues for millions? With video conferencing tools now essential for work and socializing, more screen real estate that allows us to do more things at once is a necessity.

With its wider screen, LG gram allows users to watch presentations while searching the web or taking notes through split screen mode, with everything still clearly visible. In short, multitasking during work meetings helps us be more productive on the job, saving time and effort that could be better spent elsewhere.

Home Education And Upskilling

More home time creates the opportunity to pick up new skills or hobbies, and having a state-of-the-art laptop on hand certainly makes it easier to do just that. If you’re looking to try new things, a laptop with a high resolution is a great place to start. It’ll make instructions easier to read, methods easier to follow and more information visible at once.

That’s great if you don’t want the awkwardness of flipping between tabs. Even better if your laptop is slim, light and robust because you can move around with your machine should housemates or family members interrupt and break your concentration.

Easy Photo And Video Editing

If you’re like most people, your use of social media has skyrocketed since a year ago in an attempt to stay connected to the people we care about most. The best way to keep family and friends involved in our lives is by sharing daily photo and video updates that show all the mind-numbingly boring things we did today that they simply can’t live without.

Photo and video editing tools certainly have a learning curve but the very best laptops can help you make the most of your multimedia apps. This is where laptops with wider screens and 16:10 aspect ratios can make a real difference, the extra display space perfect for showing media-editing timelines or multi-tasking across different apps. Color accuracy is a must too.

Catch Up On Favorite Shows

To pass the time, people are catching up on the films and TV boxsets they’ve always wanted to watch but never had the time. Laptops provide us with a portable TV screen we can use to watch new and old content anywhere, so whether you’re cooking in the kitchen, chilling in the garden or need something to fall asleep to, there’s always a screen close by.

A display with a wide color gamut makes colors pop and naturally the larger the screen the more absorbing the media, so think about an aspect ratio that gives you more room to play with. Of course, a laptop opens up more places where you can consume your content, whether you’re on a train, plane or a long road trip. And LG gram’s long-lasting battery life means you’ll be set for hours without running out of power.

Not All Upgrades Are The Same

There are now more reasons to upgrade your laptop and the latest LG gram devices boast slim and lightweight designs, meaning performance doesn’t have to come at the expense of portability. The laptop range is surprisingly powerful too, with Intel 11th Gen CPU internals and excellent high-resolution displays that utilize a brilliant, non-conventional 16:10 aspect ratio. Now available in 14, 16 and 17 inches, the new and impressive LG gram lineup offers fantastic screen quality with powerful components, unbelievable battery life and a convenient light design.

      I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say there are more HP TouchPads left in the world than there are their matching original barrel chargers. This means if you have a TouchPad today, you’re probably using a TouchStone, a computer, or any other random USB A charging brick to (very slowly) charge your 13 year old device. And it means you’ve seen the error message in the image above every time you’ve plugged it into anything other than the original barrel charger or a computer. Fun fact, you can trick the TouchPad into charging normally and not feeding you the message by creating your own custom micro USB or USB C cable if you’ve
      link hidden, please login to view. Stuff You’ll Need
      Assuming you have a micro USB (ie. non USB C modified TouchPad) you’ll need:
      1. A 4-wire micro USB to USB A cable
      2. and 1/4 watt resistors (1 each per cable)
      3. Soldering iron and solder
      4. Heat shrink or electrical tape
      If you’re making a USB C cable but only want to use it with a USB A charger then you’ll need:
      1. A 4 wire USB C to USB A cable
      2. Items 2-4 above
      If you’re making a true USB C to USB C cable that you plan to use with a USB C 3.1 charger you’ll need:
      1.
      2.
      3. Any 2-wire cable or a 4-wire cable that you’ll cut the data wires out of (green and white typically) and that you’ll cut the ends from
      4. Items 2-4 from the first section above
      Prepare the Wires
      Regardless of which cable you’re making, the end that goes to the TouchPad will need all 4 wires and the resistors. So grab the 4-wire cable of your choice and strip the ends, and I recommend pre-tinning them with some solder.
      Build the TouchPad Side of the Cable
      See the image below for how to arrange the resistors. If you’re making a USB A cable, go ahead and cut into two pieces, set aside the USB A side, and grab the micro or USB C for this part.. It doesn’t matter how far away from either end you go, it’s your choice. Strip the wires back so you have enough bare wire to work with.
      1. Solder the ground (black) wire to one side of the 300k resistor.
      2. Solder data- (green), data+ (white), the other side of the 300k resistor and one side of the 250k resistor together.
      3. Then solder the other end of the 250k resistor to the red (power) wire.
      Build the Charger Side of the Cable
      If you’re making a USB A cable, then all you have left to do is reconnect power (red) and ground (black) to their corresponding colors on the TouchPad side of the cable, trim off the data lines from the USB A side, clean it all up with some heat shrink or electrical tape and you’re done!
      If you’re making a USB C to USB C cable grab the USB C board I linked above and your 2-wire cable (or 4-wire that you’ve trimmed the data lines from). You’ll also have to cut the end off to make room for the new connector.
      1. Pre-tin the board on the two outside pads marked as VCC and Gnd in the image below.
      2. Solder on the red (power) wire to VCC and then black (ground) to Gnd. If you bought the housing and boards together, don’t forget to the housing on the wire before you start soldering. You also may need some super glue to keep the plastic housing from coming apart.
      3. Back at the TouchPad side of the wire, take the other end of your 2-wire cable and attach red and black to their corresponding ends, clean it up with some heat shrink or electrical tape and you’re done!
      Final Thoughts
      You should now be able to use any charger you want to and the TouchPad will believe you’re plugged into a normal battery charger and will allow the normal charge rate flow through.
      Note, you’ve effectively removed the ability to use this cable for Data since the data lines are no longer connected.
      Also, for those who modded the TouchPad with USB C, the port already has 5.1k resistance but cannot communicate that to a USB C 3.1 charger with the added resistance on the data lines. This is why the TouchPad end of the USB C cable must be a “dumb” 4-wire USB C cable and the charger end needs the 5.1k resistance to tell the charger on that end to send power. This also means that you must remember which end is which, but don’t worry. Picking the wrong direction won’t hurt anything as the USB C charger won’t allow power since the wire doesn’t tell it to. I marked the TouchPad side of the USB C cable with a dab of orange paint pen.
      Finally, I hope you found this helpful or at the very least entertaining! I had fun exploring the different ways of making this work and so feel free to give it a watch.

      Hello!

      Newbie here!

      I have an LG OLED65B7A. It works well enough connected via ethernet cable to my network.

      I want to use my LG OLED65B7A as another monitor to my laptop.

      I know this can be done using some kind of wireless technology, Miracast, etc.
      But do I need to have my LG OLED65B7A connected to my WiFi to set this up?

      However, my LG OLED65B7A will not connect to my WiFi even though the WiFi router is just 3 feet away !
      I know the WiFi is good: I have several pc's and my cellphone connected.

      There is a "SCREEN SHARE" (Miracast) option in the LG OLED65B7A, but when
      I select it (using the LG's remote and pressing the input button) this message
      pops up:
      "The device cannot be connect to your TV.
      Please try again. If the issue persists, please restart you TV or
      check your device."
      So I'm taking this to mean that my pc laptop cannot connect to my LG OLED65B7A ?

      More: when I go to the full display of options in the OLED65B7A, and go down to Network,
      it tells me the Wi-Fi Connection is "Not Connected.  When I then go into the Wi-Fi
      Connection, it tells me,
      "Wi-Fi is turned off. Turn it on to see the list of available networks that you can
      connect to and additional related menu items."
      Again, I know the WiFi is good: I have several pc's and my cellphone connected
      to it and they work perfectly.
      I've tried manually entering the SSID of my WiFi: the OLED65B7A will not see it, & will not connect.

      Any hints?

      What am I missing?

      I have previously used an HDMI cable from my laptop into an HDMI port
      of the OLED65B7A and this works for me to use the TV as a giant monitor
      for my pc laptop.

      Must I disconnect the wired connection first to get the OLED65B7A connected to WiFi ?

      Any suggestions much appreciated!

      My magic remote and my Roku remote stopped working for turning off power so I performed a factory reset after troubleshooting to get the remote working.  I am now stuck at the 1st screen of the Factory Reset which says "Press the OK Button(wheel) on your remote."  Well... this really stinks because the remote doesn't work!!!  I have tried a USB mouse, a new magic remote, other LG Remotes with no luck.  I have also tried using the button on the bottom of the tv.  And, I contacted support which was just an exercise in redoing everything I had already tried... No Luck!!
      This is a Nano Cell 55NANO81ANA which is basically just a big brick now since I cannot even use any of the inputs.  Does anyone have a trick for getting past this initial screen???
      Thanks for the help.
