Our house is never short on energy: the kids play sports at school all week and keep it up on weekends. Friends are always coming over, and our sons spend most of their time out on their bikes with friends or lost in whatever hobby has their attention.
As the kids have grown, their interests have taken shape in their own ways. Our eldest, Hamish, started high school and asked for his first laptop. Our second son, Barney, became far more interested in joining his older brother’s favourite hobby, creating a space where they could enjoy it together. And our youngest, Rosie, is smaller, but she’s already got her own routine too — usually borrowing a screen from one of her brothers once their homework is finished.
Homework goes by quicker with a bigger screen to work from. By connecting his laptop to the UltraGear, Hamish has plenty of room to keep research, notes, and assignments open at the same time without constantly switching between windows.
The larger display makes it easier to compare information side by side, stay organized, and focus on the task at hand, helping him work through schoolwork more efficiently. Once everything is finished, he's ready to switch straight into gaming with his friends and enjoy the rest of the evening.

For Hamish, the best part of the day comes after homework is finished. Once school and sports are over, spending the evening playing online with his friends has become one of his favourite ways to unwind. Barney naturally ends up beside him most evenings, watching the screen, chatting about the game, and sharing the moment together. As someone who loves racing games himself, Barney enjoys talking with his older brother about racing lines, cornering, and how he might shave a little more off his lap times.
After connecting the LG UltraGear, those evenings became even more enjoyable.
The large OLED display made it much easier for both brothers to sit comfortably and share the screen, while the high refresh rate and fast response time kept every fast-moving scene looking incredibly smooth. Hamish could enjoy a more immersive gaming experience with his friends, while Barney loved watching beside him, cheering him on as he gradually improved his performance.
Everything feels smoother and more responsive. Fast-moving scenes stay clear, and the larger screen makes gaming even more immersive. It's also great having Barney beside me while I
play.

It’s not just about gaming. The OLED display’s rich colour and deep contrast make everything on screen look better, whether the brothers are watching football or winding down after a game.
With the UltraGear at the centre of it all, that corner of the house has become a place where they naturally spend time together. Seeing them share those everyday moments made us feel we’d created a space where they could enjoy what they love together — which, as parents, has been incredibly rewarding.

The most important thing when choosing Hamish’s laptop was whether it could handle his school life without any hassle. Having just started high school, he needed something that could keep up with him from day one. It had to be light enough to carry every day, with a battery built to last through long days and enough performance to properly support his schoolwork. In our family, a laptop is something worth investing in. It's the kind of purchase you appreciate years later when it's still going strong.
After comparing several options, we landed on the LG gram AI. Its light weight made it easy to carry every day, and the battery comfortably saw him through most days of classes and assignments. The AI features, powered by an Intel® Core™ Ultra processor, quietly helped along the way too — researching information, organizing notes, and helping prepare presentations.
Hamish’s day doesn’t end when school does. Between sport and time with friends, he often spends his evenings gaming online — the genres have shifted over the years. As parents, we simply wanted him to be able to enjoy the things he loves just as fully as he keeps up with schoolwork.
The LG gram AI turned out to be exactly the laptop that carried him through both. Once homework was done, he could move straight into games with his friends without a second thought — no lag, no waiting around for the squad. Having one laptop that handled both study and downtime so naturally was something we really valued. A laptop for learning at school, a digital companion for hobbies at home — we became confident the gram AI would stay with him right through university and beyond.
I barely notice it in my bag, if I’m honest. It’s one of the lightest laptops I’ve used, yet still feels solid. That makes a real difference on busy school days.

As the kids get older, the way they spend their days keeps shifting a little. After a day full of school and sport, Hamish keeps himself busy with friends and his own things. Barney naturally ends up spending those evenings beside his older brother, watching him play, chatting about the game, and enjoying the experience together.
Preparing for a new semester isn’t just about getting new devices. It’s about creating an environment where learning and growth can continue, and where each of the kids can stay engaged with the things they love, in their own way. For our family, the LG gram AI and LG UltraGear have become a dependable part of building that everyday life together.
It wasn’t just that we chose good products. It felt like, together, we built an environment where the kids could learn, enjoy themselves, and grow, each in their own way.
