Gigabyte’s Aero X16 is one of the lightest and coolest 16” gaming laptops we’ve tested, but its stealthy look comes at the cost of limited RTX 5070 performance. We ran our full gaming benchmark suite to find out what it’s really capable of.

16.00:
This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

No weight comment found (one expected)!
79.71%: 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.
