Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED XC
Source: PC Mag English
The Aero 15 OLED XC's Core i7 processor is actually 100MHz slower than that of last year's model XB, and it was a few seconds behind in our Photoshop and Handbrake benchmarks. But it packs the latest GeForce graphics, the same stellar screen, more memory and storage, and a lower price. Giving it an Editors' Choice win was a no-brainer; the misplaced webcam is the only major thing keeping it from a perfect five-star rating. Bravo, Gigabyte.
