Gigabyte’s Aero series laptops have been my go-to for a few years for people that do a mixture of content creation and gaming, so let’s check out the differences in the new 2021 Aero 15 and see what improvements have been made.. Thanks to Newegg for sponsoring this video. New Australian Customers can get a $65 gift card when spending $650 or more on their first purchase! Despite Living in Australia, I buy from Newegg in the US all the time as they've got such an extensive range of products

 The laptop alone weighs just over 2.2kg or 4.9lb, or around 3.2kg or 7lb with the 230 watt brick and cables

 Like Previous Aero models, unfortunately, secondary key functions are not illuminated, I Really hope this is something they improve for the upcoming 11th gen version. What I Found interesting here was that it’s still outperforming the similar wattage 3080 in the XMG Pro 17 just below it with the same processor, So just goes to show that in some games the difference between a 3070 and 3080 isn’t going to be worth the extra price, it all comes down to the power limits. I’ve also tested the Aero in 14 different games in this video over here,, so check that one out if you want to get a better idea of how this laptop performs in games.

 Now For the benchmarking tools,, I’ve tested Heaven, Valley, and Superposition from Unigine, as well as Firestrike, Timespy and Port Royal from 3DMark,. Just pause the video if you want a detailed look at these results. Adobe Premiere was tested with the Puget Systems benchmark. They Recently updated this test, so results are not comparable to my previous videos, and as a result I’ve got less data to show, but out of the laptop selection, I have tested it’s doing alright, granted performance is in between two 4800H plus 1660 Ti machines

The Best Laptop For Content Creators & Gamers - Aero 15 Review

Tiger Lake combined with the fast NVMe SSD, which is connected via PCI Express Gen 4, cuts an extremely fine figure. A full-fledged HDMI 2.1 port, Thunderbolt 4, and the option to add another SSD round off the package. The full-fledged SD card reader and the Ethernet port deliver high transfer rates as well

The manufacturer wanted to pack as much performance as possible into the tightest of spaces, and it managed to do so at the expense of high heat emissions. We were also positively impressed by the amount of ports that Gigabyte packed into the case, which is only a mere two centimeters thick. However, their positioning on the right side was a bit unfavorable. In our opinion, the power supply could have been easily moved to the back, so as not to hinder working with a mouse

Verdict

 Now the 4k OLED models start at $1,700 and for that you get a 9 Gen Core I7 6 core processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM at 256, KB by Nvme SSD and a Gtx 1660 TI. The model that I have over here comes with a Kora 998, a Th K-8 core, 16 thread CPU 16 gigabytes of RAM and dual channel mode, a 512 gigabyte Nbme Drive and an R/t X 2070 max-q GPU and it costs $3,000 Just just let that sink in for a moment because it's not cheap. it's it's expensive. But I'm glad that they're actually giving users the option to configure these notebooks to whatever they like all the way up to 20 80 max-q if you really want that way

 Honestly, I think I'm gonna stick with a 1080p panel because I Love the fluidity and the responsive and the refresh rate in general of the screen. It's still a very color accurate display. I can comfortably edit videos on it I Don't think I can you go wrong with a 1080p panel in the first place? And the biggest limiting factor for me with a 4k display is the refresh rate. at 60 Hertz it is a bit limiting, especially coming from a high refresh rate screen

 it's it's expensive. But I'm glad that they're actually giving users the option to configure these notebooks to whatever they like all the way up to 20 80 max-q if you really want that way. And so let's go through some of the changes: Talked about the core I9 performance because this is my first laptop with the high 9 CPU ink core 16 threads. That's awesome I think compared to the I7, But most importantly I want to talk about that 4k display? Is it really worth the upgrade? So let's go through that

 So let me know what you guys think about the Aero 15 from Gigabyte specifically the OLED models. Would you consider one right now and let me know your thoughts about Bokura and performance? Were you surprised by that Love tune your thoughts I'm Ebro with Haruka knacks. Thank you so much for watching! Make sure to check out some relevant content over here. Also subscribe and hit that notification button every time we pump out a new video

 And so let's go through some of the changes: Talked about the core I9 performance because this is my first laptop with the high 9 CPU ink core 16 threads. That's awesome I think compared to the I7, But most importantly I want to talk about that 4k display? Is it really worth the upgrade? So let's go through that. But first, a quick message from our sponsor Heyo! C's warranty just respawned. That covers four years general warranty for any defects, including a one-time accidental warranty replacement of Vagin monitors because sometimes things happen so you can enjoy a super smooth and responsive gameplay just like the warranty

My 4K OLED Notebook Experience - Gigabyte AERO 15 Review

In review: Aero 15 OLED XD. Test device provided by Gigabyte GermanyThe manufacturer wanted to pack as much performance as possible into the tightest of spaces, and it managed to do so at the expense of high heat emissions. We were also positively impressed by the amount of ports that Gigabyte packed into the case, which is only a mere two centimeters thick. However, their positioning on the right side was a bit unfavorable

All in all, the Aero is a decent option for you if you’re looking for a powerful OLED laptop with lots of pizzazz. But its downsides — particularly the battery life and the nosecam — are significant, and it’s worth considering whether you’ll be taking full advantage of the chips and the 4K OLED in return. 

The performance I saw here wasn’t a massive upgrade from the previous Aero 15, but it’s still some of the best gaming and productivity performance that you’ll find among laptops of this size. The 60Hz screen means you won’t be able to see the impressive frame rates the new hardware is capable of, so many gamers may get a better experience out of a device with a higher refresh rate screen. But if you’ve got your eye on an OLED screen, either because you’re doing color work on the side or you just want your games and movies to look great, this device should get the job done (albeit in a loud and hot manner). 

 That’s one of the highest scores I’ve ever seen from a test unit, and it blows away the competition, soundly beating the Zephyrus G15, the Blade 15, and the Aorus 15G, as well as the Aero XB with an RTX 2070 Super Max-Q. It’s more than twice the score we’ve seen from the Dell XPS 15. 

Getting straight to the gaming: Red Dead Redemption 2 averaged 80fps on the ultra preset in 1080p, dropping to 37fps in 4K. With all sliders manually maxed, I had to drop to the medium preset in order to get a playable 4K frame rate of 46fps. Shadow of the Tomb Raider ran at 104fps in 1080p with ray tracing off and 81fps with ray tracing on, dropping to 48fps and 29fps, respectively, in 4K. (With DLSS on, 52fps and 38fps)

Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED XD review: powerful, pricey, and flawed

 Finally, the keyboard is comfortable (it’s got a NumPad and a bit of a soft click), but the flashy RGB lights are quite, well, visible, and won’t necessarily be what everyone wants to have in an office or coffee shop. I just wish it lasted longer.All in all, the Aero is a decent option for you if you’re looking for a powerful OLED laptop with lots of pizzazz. But its downsides — particularly the battery life and the nosecam — are significant, and it’s worth considering whether you’ll be taking full advantage of the chips and the 4K OLED in return

 GIGABYTE AERO 15 SPECS (AS REVIEWED)Intel Core i7-11800H (2.3GHz-4.6GHz)Two DDR4-3200 16GB (dual-channel)Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 GDDR6 8GB (boost clock 1290 MHz, 105W maximum power)One Gen 4 SSD 1TB15.6-inch Samsung UHD (3840 x 2160) AMOLED display14

 With all sliders manually maxed, I had to drop to the medium preset in order to get a playable 4K frame rate of 46fps. Shadow of the Tomb Raider ran at 104fps in 1080p with ray tracing off and 81fps with ray tracing on, dropping to 48fps and 29fps, respectively, in 4K. (With DLSS on, 52fps and 38fps). So you could actually play both of these titles in 4K if you wanted to, but you’d need to drop the settings to hit the 60fps sweet spot

1. Also like last year’s model, it has a somewhat clunky aluminum design, a flashy RGB keyboard, a fingerprint sensor in the trackpad, and a webcam inconveniently located underneath the screen. The big change is that the Aero 15 now includes Intel’s latest 11th Gen processors and Nvidia’s RTX 3070 graphics card. The performance I saw here wasn’t a massive upgrade from the previous Aero 15, but it’s still some of the best gaming and productivity performance that you’ll find among laptops of this size

 I decided to get a replacement fan myself on AliExpress and replace the fan. Replacing the fan was pretty easy and while I was at it, I also re-pasted my CPU and GPU with Artic MX-4 thermal paste. Following the replacement and re-paste, my fans are much quieter now and thermals are much better than they were before. I'm able to maintain 3

 Speeds are really fast too at around 2000mb/s r/3000mb/s w. -I've seen alot of complaints with the wifi card on the AERO, but wifi experience on my model has been excellent. No problems w/ download & upload speeds over WiFi on my model and no drop outs. ***Update*** It's been one month w/ the Aero 15 now, no issues so far

 The Stock SSD is really fast too. As of November 17, 2020, I populated my second m2 slot with a Sabrent Rocket 1tb nvme SSD, and have no issues with it on the laptop. Speeds are really fast too at around 2000mb/s r/3000mb/s w. -I've seen alot of complaints with the wifi card on the AERO, but wifi experience on my model has been excellent

 As states above, max fans do sound like a jet engine. You also have full customization over the fans using gigabyte fusion. Battery Life: Battery life for me while typing docs, browsing the web, 40% brightness and keyboard backlight on was about 4-5 hours for me. Haven't tested it while gaming though

Great Laptop

 This is a card that Nvidia makes that has less power/performance than the normal cards to save battery/heat with the same price. I didn't see the fact that it was a Max-Q card anywhere in any of the information on the store page so I am pretty annoyed and may return the item due to false advertising. Albeit this is still a great laptop, it's just not the one I thought I was going to get for my money.

BEWARE ships with rtx 2070 WITH MAX-Q

 Nothing out there seemed to have the power, as well as the feature set I was really looking for. Well, color me very Impressed! This machine is very well constructed, light, and equipped with Intel's latest 9th gen, hexacore processor, as well as the RTX 2060, 512GB NVME drive, and 16GB of dual channel memory, with a second NVME slot in a very easy to upgrade configuration: no "upside down" motherboard designs here! PLUS, it has Thunderbolt 3 port, RJ-45 port should you opt for a wired connection, SD Card Reader, and all of the usual ports available: USB3.1, HDMI. So its loaded with the options one could take advantage of

 Its very powerful, and any time you stuff a hexacore processor into a thin and light ( emphasizing this again!), heat may become an issue, however it never stopped me from having fun with many of the AAA games I play, not cramped my style doing some Premiere rendering and editing...

.and FAST! All at well under 5#. Definitely worth your consideration, especially with that gorgeous 15" OLED screen: same one that all the other laptop makers are using in their OLED offerings. Picked up the additional warranty as well

 Oh, havent mentioned the 15" OLED screen! Stunning! Color acccurate, perfect for content creators who require color accuracy. And, games look very good as well. You can always go from 4K, to 1920x1080 for your games and get potentially higher frame rates, and although this display is locked at 60hz, having the game have a potential frame rate at well over that, only improves the view at 60 hz. In short, this laptop gives you a lot of value for your money, and is one of the only 15", thin and light laptops that has the array of options and ports that are actually useful, and that should come on a laptop in its price range
