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 Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED (2021) has a sensational screen, a great Intel processor and impressive Nvidia graphics so it will handle creative work easily. That said, the keyboard and battery disappoint, it’s loud and ugly, and other CPU options are available.

Combining Intel’s 11th Gen processors and NVIDIA’s 2nd Gen RTX GPUs is an absolute delight for power hungry enthusiasts and avid content creators. Not only does it supply more than ample throughput but it paves the way for new technology possibilities. As can be expected, the hardware configuration for AERO 15 OLED YD delivers solid all-round performance. AERO 15 has no reservations about offering reliable 3D performance in the latest triple-a gaming titles nor does it shy away from contributing to improve content creation workflows. Though, we would have liked to see 1080p as the native resolution – 4K stretches things too far (even for the mighty RTX 3080) when gamers want to max out on the detail preset. The display on our AERO 15 OLED YD is fantastic and must be seen to really appreciate its true glory. The Samsung AMOLED display provides excellent brightness, higher contrast ratio and supports a higher colour gamut. If screen quality is a top priority then this laptop is an obvious choice.
