Reviews for the Gigabyte Aero 15W v8-DE025PB

80% Gigabyte Aero 15W V8 review – A feast for the eyes
Source: Htxt Africa English Archive.org version
With powerful internals and a gorgeous exterior the Gigabyte Aero 15W V8 won't look out of place in the work place or a LAN party. While we lament the lack of an HDD we recognise it would have added weight to a slim machine. The heat we feel through the keyboard becomes uncomfortable and that also loses this notebook some points. The display is the real star here and it alone earns the 15W V8 a recommendation from us.

Ultimately, it’s just the keyboard that stops the Aero 15 getting an award, but it’s nonetheless a triumph of engineering and represents a top-tier choice for multiple business, industrial and recreation activities.

If you’re a gamer who places portability over the very best possible performance, the Aero 15 is well worth pondering over.

80% Gigabyte Aero 15-15W V8 (2018) Review
Source: Toptenreviews English Archive.org version
Gigabyte has done some work optimising the battery life, allowing it to get over 7 hours of movie playback when in Performance mode. And while the unit is on the heavy side at a little over 2kg, for something with this much power and battery life, it’s actually exceptionally lightweight. The updated model does sacrifice the 3,000/1,500MB/S NVMe SSD from last year’s model for a slower 500MB/s SATA SSD, but this is the device’s only real step backwards — and it’s a largely inconsequential one.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
