Make your LG gram 17 even better with these top accessories

The LG gram 17 is one of the best Windows laptops with a 17-inch display that you can get. Despite its form factor, it manages to be relatively light, making it perfect for use on the go. It's truly excellent by itself, but once you own one, the next step is making your experience even better with some great accessories.

Top mouse

Logitech MX Master 3

Editor's pick

Logitech's MX Master 3 connects via Bluetooth or the included nano receiver, and supports up to three machines at once. Tracking is accurate, and thanks to its design, this is about the most comfortable mouse you can ever put your hands on, and it'll charge up over USB-C using the same cable as your smartphone.

Desktop graphics

Razer Core X

The gram 17 only has integrated Intel graphics, which is fine for most purposes, but if you need a little more power then you'll want to look towards an eGPU. The Razer Core X is an enclosure for a desktop graphics card that hooks up to the laptop over Thunderbolt 3 and works in tandem with the processor in the laptop to deliver power for professional use or even gaming.

Making a great laptop even better

The LG gram 17 is a really fantastic 17-inch laptop and is easily capable of being your only computer. It's well suited then to some great accessories, and while it has an excellent trackpad already, many still prefer to use a mouse. The Logitech MX Master 3 is probably the best wireless mouse you can get right now, carrying the legendary name proudly and remaining one of the most ergonomic mice on sale today.

You'll want to protect it, too, and even though it's tough, you can't go wrong by popping it inside a sleeve when you travel, even if it's going inside another bag. The affordable Arvok sleeve is water resistant and packed with soft foam to keep your gram 17 safe from the world when you leave home or the office.

It's also worth making use of Thunderbolt 3 since you have it, and a dock like the one from CalDigit can expand your laptop's capabilities greatly. Add a couple of external monitors and Ethernet to transform the gram 17 into a full desktop workstation.
