GIGABYTE AERO X16; Copilot+ PC - 165Hz 2560x1600 WQXGA - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 - AMD Ryzen AI 7 350-1TB SSD with 16GB DDR5 RAM - Windows 11 Home - Lunar White

I’ve been using the Gigabyte AERO X16 (Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 / RTX 5070) for gaming, work, and travel, and it’s exceeded every expectation so far. Performance is top-tier — even during long gaming sessions, both CPU and GPU stay around the mid-60s °C with a cooling pad underneath. No throttling, no lag, and everything runs smooth and quiet for a machine this thin. The overall build quality feels premium — solid aluminum chassis, bright and color-accurate display, and a responsive keyboard and trackpad. RAM and SSD speeds are excellent, and system boot time is nearly instant. The fan noise ramps up only when gaming hard, but that’s expected with this much power in a slim body. I’ve had zero issues so far — no driver bugs, crashes, or overheating. Gigabyte’s GiMate software is easy to use for fan and performance control. This laptop feels purpose-built for creators and gamers who want desktop-level performance in a portable package. Highly recommend for anyone who values performance, cooling efficiency, and build quality in a premium Windows laptop.

I have had this Laptop for a month now and I must say this is a solid, fast, well built Laptop of high quality. I am extremely happy with my purchase. All I use is Gigabyte Products and I highly recommend this one! Great Gaming Performance, Battery life is decent, and it is very quiet.

Fast, dependable, long battery life on iGPU, screen is fine, could be better but it works 16GB upgradable DDR5 and it works fine Fan noise level on silent when non gaming is silent, while gaming it is loud but that's to be expected since it needs to cool down Gaming experience is fine, the gpu being limited doesn't perform insanely well but it is more than capable of running every game on atleast 60fps

This is the perfect laptop at the right price. At $1300 you get a 5070 with 32 gbs of RAM. Other places want to charge over a grand more for the same spec. Price to performance ratio is decent and with a full 5070 it will play 99.99% games out there at least at high settings. Let the fans be noisy when gaming because the decent audio would quickly over take the light swooshes of the fans. It does get hot for a moment but quickly expelled and cooled by cooling system. I'm sure I could get a few hours off the charger web surfing and doing light tasks which speaks to the battery life. Design is fine. I may not have put the ports where they were but it's fine. As someone who works in IT, usbc charging isn't all that it's cracked up to be. This particular design speaks to that and allows longevity to the port and makes sure it's easy to use.

The advertised battery life for this laptop is completely fake. The realistic battery life is approximately 1-3 hours depending on use. The AI software (Gimate) is what supposedly gives this laptop the advertised battery life. The issue with the Gimate is that is constantly disables the Main GPU and limited the clock speeds of the CPU. This normally wouldnt be an issue but the laptop becomes a laggy mess with the AI "optimizes" the performance by doing a bunch of unnecessary tweaks to the CPU, RAM and GPU. Gimate also constantly disabling the 165hz refresh rate to a default 60hz even when you go to play a game. If you manually enable all of the features that the AI software disables then they AI will randomly disable them without any notification. The laptop runs mostly better with Gimate uninstalled, but it is still a buggy mess. When waking the laptop from sleep, the laptop will occasionally crash and have to fully reboot itself simply by being woken up from sleep mode. The laptop is supposed to disable the main GPU when on battery power which is fine, but the transition between plugging and unplugging the laptop from a power source is horrendous. Black flickering screens with occasional crashes as well. You can leave the GPU permanently on by messing with the BIOS, but you do sacrifice battery life which I feel is much better than having the laptop crash because it's highly unoptimized and cannot handle switching from integrated graphics to dedicated graphics. If you're buying this laptop then simply do not install Gimate or uninstall it if it already comes pre installed. Gimate was fully updated before I eventually uninstalled it. Nothing but trash AI software.

Great laptop for the price its seriously amazing lasts around 7h when used for school. Gaming use it plugged in. I got around 45fps on max settings WITH raytracing on fortnite I was seriously impressed. On normal settings in fornite alone I got an average of 230. Battery is great screen is great obviously not oled but you wouldn't be paying 1700 if it was. The keyboard functions are great and I love the rob its minimal. No crazy hard to uninstall bloatware I cleaned it up in less than half an hour. Feels very premium and not too heavy but you will feel it.

I have been using the Gigabyte Aero x16 AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 variant laptop for the past few weeks and overall performance is good, and it's very suitable for my work. but I feel that the battery drains a little quickly, and since I ordered from Saudi Arabia and it was international delivery, the delivery charge and product input charge It seems a bit much.

It is very slim and lightweight laptop with premium specifications and can tun any game you want It is powerful gaming laptop i ever have

Para empezar. Sabemos que es un manojo de nervios cuando uno adquiere un aparato electrónico en línea, y más si se trata de una laptop. Uno se preocupa ó se pregunta si llegará íntegro o recibirás un jabón, un ladrillo u otro objeto. Por fortuna, no fue el caso. Me llegó completo, es lo que pedí y todo en orden. Tras estar rastreando mi pedido, el único "Pero" que encontré fue cuando llegó a aduana. La tuvieron que abrir para inspección. De acuerdo, se comprende porque es un producto importado, ahí empieza a uno a sospechar o a, como dije antes, a preocuparse. A lo que vamos, la laptop. Es ligera, su cuerpo es de aluminio. Al abrir la caja veras su cargador correspondiente, manuales, garantía y stickers para colocarlos en laptop. Las especificaciones técnicas son impresionantes, yo diría que son perfectas, procesador, memoria ram, almacenamiento, Gpu, Wi-Fi 6E, una pantalla con una resolución 2K, a 165 hz, de 400 nits y con Pantone 100% SRGB. Éste tipo de pantalla no se miran seguido en muchas laptops. Ahora, al iniciarla todo marchó bien, desde las actualizaciones que requería Windows 11 hasta el software propio de la laptop Gigabyte. Sin embargo, como algunos o muchos sabrán cómo es Windows 11, hubo una actualización que no se instalaba y no quedaba, por más que busque una solución. Opte por realizar una restauración de fabrica, desafortunadamente. Procedí de nuevo a configurarla y, de lleno, con las actualizaciones de Windows 11 y por fin. La actualización importante, que no quedaba, se pudo instalar. De ahí, de nuevo, el software de la laptop, drivers y por último mi paquetería personal. La restauración de fábrica ayudó. El rendimiento es asombroso, pude correr el software actual sin problemas, al igual con los juegos, los puede correr en configuración Ultra. Lo que es de 100, por parte Gigabyte, es que se puede expandir la memoria Ram hasta 64 Gigas. Una segunda ranura para instalar otro Estado Sólido. Abrir la laptop puede resultar algo difícil, lo menciono para que tengan cuidado, en caso que expandan la Memoria Ram ó instalar la segunda unidad SSD. Estoy muy complacido con esta laptop, es lo que buscaba. Los ventiladores, a mi parecer, no son tan ruidosos cuando trabaja a máxima capacidad. En temperatura ronda entre los 74 grados, eso es con la Gpu, y con la Cpu 65 grados centígrados. Hasta ahora, todo marcha bien. Solo hay que, como dije, lidiar con Windows 11. Porque sabemos que no es perfecto el sistema operativo y puede llegar a ser una molestia, cuando las actualizaciones llegan a romper la estabilidad del sistema.

I’ve been using the AERO X16 for 3 months now. Pros: Beautiful, bright display with great colors and smooth response Strong performance even with some GPU wattage limits Around 100 FPS in STALKER 2 (1440p Medium, DLSS + Frame Gen on RTX 5060) Lightweight and portable Very solid battery life (about 7–8 hours light use) Can charge via USB-C power bank while traveling Good keyboard feel Great for video editing (GoPro, Insta360 files, etc.) Cons: Some backlight bleed visible on dark screens in a dark room Overall, a great balance of performance, screen quality, and portability for the price.

Everything is good expet when i check graphics card i found thier is no Nvidia graphics card thier only amd 890 and in laptop thier Nvidia tag showing this laptop has it Very disappointed
