This 2-in-1 Laptop Is a Dream for Creatives and Prime Day Has It Slashed By Up to $450

CNET2 days ago
For creative professionals, a versatile laptop that supports the right software and technology is essential. But not all laptops are created equal, nor do they rise to the occasion. The great news is that with Prime Day dropping prices left and right, tons of laptops are on sale. Among them is one that Cesar Cadenas, a writer for our sibling site ZDNET, called "ultraportable" and " a dream for creative professionals" in his review.
The 16-inch LG Gram Pro 2-in-1 16GB/1TB is currently just $1,697 on Amazon right now. With an original list price of $2,100, that's $403 off. And if you want the 32GB/2TB version, it's currently $2,100, which is $450 off.
Designed to be used as either a tablet or laptop, it weighs in at just over 3 pounds and, when closed, is only about half an inch thick. That makes this an excellent laptop for travel, commute, remote work and in-person meetings and presentations.
It also has a flexible hinge that allows you to configure it depending on how you wish to use it. Essentially the hinge takes the generous 16-inch display back so it can be used like a tablet, or it can be propped up.
The laptop has an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor and hybrid AI solutions. Though both models come with quite a bit of storage, you also get an excellent experience with cloud-based software including advanced AI performance. And the battery boasts up to 19 hours on a single charge, giving iPads and MacBook Airs a run for their money.
A stylus is also included with your purchase. Cardenas writes, "It doesn't require Bluetooth. All you have to do is attach it to the hidden magnet on the right side, give it a few seconds, and the pen will connect to the LG Gram." Plus this is how you charge the stylus.

Watch These Microsoft Price Levels as Stock Closes Above $500 for First Time

Microsoft shares hit another record high on Wednesday as the tech giant's market capitalization moves closer to $4 trillion. After bottoming out near the 200-week moving average in early April, Microsoft shares have remained in a strong uptrend, gaining in 12 of the past 14 weeks. Bars Pattern analysis forecasts a potential bullish target of around $565 and indicates the current move higher may last until early September. Investors should watch crucial support levels on Microsoft's chart near $468 and $ (MSFT) shares hit another record high on Wednesday as the tech giant's market capitalization moves closer to $4 trillion. The company's market cap trails only that of Nvidia (NVDA), which briefly surpassed the $4 trillion level early in Wednesday's trading session, becoming the first company to ever achieve the milestone. Microsoft shares rose more than 1% to around $503 on Wednesday, putting the company's market value at $3.74 trillion. The stock has risen 46% from its early-April low and is nearly 20% higher year-to-date as of Wednesday's close investment bank Oppenheimer believes the tech titan has room for further upside, placing a $600 price target on Microsoft stock, in part, due to the company's AI revenue growth prospects. Meanwhile, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives told clients in a note Wednesday that he anticipates Microsoft to reach the $4 trillion mark this summer. Below, we take a closer look at Microsoft's weekly chart and use technical analysis to identify price levels that investors will likely be watching. After bottoming near the 200-week moving average in early April, Microsoft shares have remained in a strong uptrend, gaining in 12 of the past 14 weeks. While the relative strength index confirms bullish price momentum, it has recently crossed into overbought territory, an area on the indicator that has previously coincided with consolidation phases in the stock. It's worth noting that the volume has trended downward during the stock's move higher in recent months, indicating that some larger institutional investors may be waiting for the tech giant's next earnings report before deploying more capital. Let's turn to Microsoft's chart to forecast where the shares may be headed next and also locate several crucial support levels worth monitoring during potential pullbacks in the stock. Investors can use bars pattern analysis to forecast how Microsoft's current move higher may play out. When applying the technique, we take the trend higher from March to July 2023 and reposition it from the stock's strong close above the 50-week MA in April. This analysis projects a potential bullish target of around $565, currently about 12% above Wednesday's closing price. The prior trend analyzed took place over 18 trading weeks, indicating the current move higher could last until early September if price action rhymes. We selected this earlier trend as it followed a strong close above the 50-week MA and closely tracks how the current move higher is playing out after a similar close above the indicator. The first lower level to watch sits around $468, an area that will likely gain significant attention near last July's prominent swing high. Investors could seek buying opportunities here if Microsoft bulls can successfully defend this crucial chart location. Finally, a deeper retracement could see the shares revisit lower support at the $425 level. This area finds a confluence of support from the rising 50-week MA and a trendline that links an array of trading activity on the chart extending back to March last year.

Vanguard Just Bought More SoundHound Stock. Should You?

SoundHound AI (SOUN) soared as much as 20% on Tuesday after a regulatory filing confirmed that Vanguard has been loading up on shares of the voice-enabled artificial intelligence platform this year. According to the SEC filing dated July 7, Vanguard added more than 5.29 million shares of the AI-enabled speech recognition firm in the first six months of 2025. This Analyst Just Raised His Broadcom Stock Price Target by 70%. Should You Buy AVGO Now?

Sign Up Now! Including today's rally, SoundHound stock is up 100% versus its year-to-date low set in April. Vanguard – one of the most widely revered institutional investors in the world – now owns a total of 37.32 million shares of the voice AI firm. Its aggressive accumulation of SOUN shares is significant as it signals conviction in the company's long-term potential. Investors are cheering the news since Vanguard's validation could attract additional institutional interest, strengthen investor confidence, and improve overall liquidity in SoundHound stock. SOUN has been in a sharp uptrend over the past year primarily because its voice-enabled AI technology has been gaining traction across several industries, including automotive, customer care, and enterprise software. That momentum even helped the company's revenue come in a whopping 151% up on a year-over-year basis in its fiscal Q1. Despite Vanguard's vote of confidence and exceptional growth in SoundHound's revenue, caution is warranted in buying this AI stock at current levels due to valuation concerns. SOUN stock is currently going for a price-to-sales ratio of 53x – more than double the multiple on Nvidia (NVDA). That's actually why Michael Latimore – a senior Northland Securities analyst – reiterated his 'Hold' rating on SoundHound AI last week, warning of a potential downside in it to $8 per share. SOUN stock is now trading handily above analysts' mean target, which further suggests today's rally may have gone a bit too far. According to Barchart, the consensus rating on SoundHound shares remains at 'Moderate Buy' but the average price target of $11.50 indicates potential downside of nearly 14% from here.
