We all remember the iconic moment when Steve Jobs pulled the first MacBook Air from a manilla envelope, and at WWDC 23 Apple doubled down on the theme by declaring the 15in version (see p60) as the "world's thinnest 15-inch laptop" at 11.5mm. LG would no doubt disagree, declaring the SuperSlim to be 10.9mm - but that's at the front. At the rear, it measures almost precisely 13mm.
Still, that's not exactly chunky. And at 990g this isn't only a SuperSlim machine but SuperPortable, too. I won't add Super Rugged to that list, despite the fact it passed seven MIL-STD 810H tests, because those concentrated on temperature, altitude and vibration rather than how well the SuperSlim can sustain direct blows or drops.
The chassis is finished in a sober but attractive dark hue that LG calls "Neptune Blue". LG is coy about exactly what it's made of, but aluminium, magnesium and ABS plastic are the key ingredients. The ludicrously thin lid is certainly made from metal alloy, but if you're nervous (and note the stingy one-year warranty) you should choose a bag with extra protection when venturing outside with the SuperSlim.
But there's excellent news for anyone looking for a laptop to take on their travels, and that's battery life. It lasted a tremendous 11hrs 23mins in the light-use PCMark Modern Office test, 11hrs 53mins when looping a video and ten minutes shy of 16 hours when left idling, all with Wi-Fi on and the screen set to 150cd/m².
