84.5% Aorus 15P WB in review: Compact gaming powerhouse offers very good battery life | Notebookcheck
The Aorus 15P WB brings all modern computer games smoothly onto the screen (Full HD, IPS, 144 Hz). In addition, there's an NVMe SSD, 16 GB of RAM (dual-channel mode), and battery runtimes that many office laptops can't reach.

Admittedly, these are also theoretical and it will eventually come down to the next few weeks how things will turn out. That said, if you feel uneasy spending now, then you’re already willing to wait so just continue to do so and we’ll see how things will go. On the upside, those who need a laptop now can rest in the fact that like the RTX 20 price drops a few months back, these current-gen laptops may see their prices slashed further as we can see with the AORUS offerings so its currently the best time to take advantage of this offer.

86.4% Aorus 15P YD in review: High-end gaming laptop with fast 360 Hz display | Notebookcheck
With the Intel Core i7-11800H, Gigabyte not only packs one of the strongest processors into the Aorus 15P, but it also combines it with the GeForce RTX 3080 from Nvidia, which is currently the strongest gaming graphics card. Our review reveals what this gaming laptop is capable of.
90% Gigabyte Aorus 15P YD review
Source: Techradar English
The Gigabyte Aorus 15P YD absolutely nails the 'gaming' aspect of being a gaming laptop, but a few design choices make the machine feel questionably outdated. If you want something that can play anything you throw at it then look no further, but consider buying a few peripherals to compliment it.
