[Redaktion]

The OLED version of the Gigabyte Aero 15 fights its way into the top 3 of the light and compact gaming laptops. The device is also very interesting for creators.

Nice 4k oled screen but you pay 600 extra for that...

Is the 1080p screen any good? Haven't seen any reviews for that yet.

"Screen flickering / PWM detected   60 Hz   ≤ 80 % brightness setting"


This panel is so BAD for eyes.

Besides with time some OS GUI elements will burn on screen (OLED isn't good for PC)

Burn-in is unlikely with current technology. But 60Hz PWM isn't just bad, it's absolutely unusable and outweighs any pros.

But a glossy screen and PWM kill all desire for this laptop.

I concur on the PWM comments, it's an instant no-go for some of us. Maybe notebookcheck should consider exposing this parameter more in the header of reviews.

It's a good quality 144 Hz panel, similar to those used in most high end gaming laptops with good response times and colours
