LG Gram 16 Repair — your questions answered
How much does an LG Gram Pro 16 OLED screen replacement cost?
Fitted replacement using a genuine Samsung Display OLED panel is $1,400-$1,900. Lead time is typically 5-7 business days while we source the panel. The job includes full calibration and 90-day warranty on parts and labour.
Is repairing an LG Gram 16 cheaper than a Gram 17?
Yes. The 16-inch model uses a smaller battery, panel and chassis, so most parts are 10-15% less expensive than the Gram 17 equivalent. Labour rates remain the same across both sizes.
Can you fix the RTX 3050 on my Gram Pro 16 without replacing the whole board?
When the fault is cracked solder joints we can attempt BGA reflow for $580-$880. If the GPU silicon itself is damaged we must replace the entire mainboard. We run a full stress test after reflow to confirm stability before returning the machine.
How long does LG Gram 16 battery replacement take?
A genuine LG 80 Wh battery swap takes one to two business days in the workshop. We also image your drive beforehand and return the laptop with the new battery calibrated to the embedded controller.
Do you offer onsite repair for LG Gram 16 hinge issues?
Hinge and bezel work requires a clean bench and parts on hand, so we usually complete it in the workshop within two to three days. Onsite visits are available for software diagnostics or simple battery swaps if you prefer.
