That hardware doesn’t come cheap, though - the Aero 15 OLED starts at $1,699 and the model I tested is $2,699. What you won’t find on gaming notebooks is this model’s screen, which is a 60Hz OLED display with 3840 x 2160 (4K) resolution. There’s a 10th Gen eight-core i7-10875H processor, a 512GB SSD (plus one available M.2 slot), 16GB of RAM (DDR4), and Nvidia’s brand-new GeForce RTX 2070 Super Max-Q GPU. Of course, you can also play games on the Aero 15 - after all, it has the hardware for it. It’s a good, if brave, statement: if you want to rock RGB lighting in your office, go for it. I’m happy to see a device that’s not made for gamers’ basements take on this look, though. Sure, some creators who want that aesthetic might be content to buy a “gaming” rig like the Razer Blade 15 to suit their needs. There’s no reason that big, flashy devices should be reserved for gamers that’s just a design trend companies decided on. Designers won’t want this.īut I’ve made myself stop thinking that because the reality is: that’s a stereotype. This is a gaming laptop, I thought on my first day using it. It has a bright LED logo on its lid, large visible vents on the back and bottom, and a colorful RGB keyboard that will turn heads from across the office. It looks nothing like any laptop that comes to mind when I think of “creators” (the slim and sleek MacBook Pros, XPS 15s, Surface Books, and Zenbooks of the world). But when I first saw the thing, I didn’t believe that. The Gigabyte Aero 15 is a laptop aimed at designers and creative professionals.
