LG has announced three new 21:9 UltraWide monitors, all rocking the 3440x1440 resolution and boasting Thunderbolt 2 connectivity. The new LG UC98 and UC88 models will feature curved panels, while the UC88 will be a flat, 21:9 UltraWide display. LG also took the time to unveil two new 4K displays, with the UD88 and UD68 series, both sporting USB Type-C connectivity. Also, LG will be rolling out Gram at CES, its 15.6-inch laptop that runs Windows 10 on a Skylake-based Intel processor. LG's Gram weighs just over 2 pounds, and compared to Apple's MacBook Air which weighs just under 2 pounds, LG has something to really show off.
