I?ve had the pc for two weeks. So far everything is great. As most others have mentioned the screen and color accuracy are amazing. I have not pushed it hard yet do to mostly getting things over from old pc. Bloatware is minimal. Easy to upgrade memory and SSD. Lastly, from my search a lot of horsepower for the money.

A lot of computer for the money

Nice bright screen. Well-configured, but a bit pricey even on sale.

OLED display is nice but price seems a little high

power gaming laptop... with rtx 3080 and for the price it is a steal.  great desktop replacement.

great bang for a buck

Good build and only noisy fan if doing something really taxing.  My first Aero and so far it is excellent deal for the price.

Aero 15 - 3080

I have owned this for a little over a month and am impressed with its performance. The wi-fi card is exceptionally fast allowing me to get my plan's 400M/s over wi-fi. I recommend you download the utilities provided by Gigabyte, including the mist recent Realtek sound application to resolve some issues in setting up the backlit keyboard and sound control.

Overall, laptop performance is amazing. Editing is pretty smooth with my a7s3 in 4:2:0. Maybe I need 32gb of ram to edit smooth in 4:2:2. I get dropped frame in 4:2:2. Other than that it?s great. Battery life is not as good. You?ll definitely need to bring the charger with you if your doing creative work (Premiero Pro, Photoshop, After Effect). Regular browsing (Web, Zooms, Youtube) gets a lot of life from the battery. Like I said it?s great. According to Ben G Kaiser test, the gigabyte works best at 32gb of ram.

Gigabyte real review from videographer

good laptop

Awesome beast!  Use it as a creator, not a gamer.  Use it everyday tethered only with Thunderbolt 4 to an Anker TB4 Dock hooked to dual monitors, Razer DeathAdder, Razer Tartarus Pro for creating files in CorelDRAW 2021 and Adobe Photoshop.  Doesn?t even break a sweat.  After exporting my files I use Pinnacle MultiCam Video Screen capture software and Adobe Audition to create explainer videos about the files I create for my YouTube channel.  Then I render them in Adobe Premier where the Aero shines by crushing that render time!  The fans might be a bit noisy for some but I know that means work is getting done.  So far it hasn?t set a foot wrong. Super easy to upgrade, already added another storage SSD.  Very happy with the purchase and the great price, too! Thanks Adorama and Gigabyte!

Awesome Creator?s Laptop!

Great creator laptop with the OLED display and 3060 graphics, just wish it also had a pen based touch display for artwork and creative editing.

Creator Laptop Minus One Feature

Hardware: This is a beefy little computer. I replaced my aging workstation with this, and, aside from the basic limitations of any laptop on storage and Input/Output, this has been a great purchase so far.

The OLED screen is my first laptop screen with OLED, and it makes a huge difference vs my older laptop screen. It's the first laptop screen I've had that doesn't make my eyes hurt after 30 minutes of use. The contrast and saturation are also great, but for me, the biggest hurdle with laptop screens has always been eyestrain.

The keyboard is pretty good overall. I dislike the fn key being a held option (like shift or control) vs a toggle where it will stay in media mode or F1-12 mode. Also the media mode functions aren't backlit, so you can't look at them to find them if it's even somewhat dark in the room. Not worth dinging a star, but worth noting.

Aero 15: So hot right now. A 30 series GPU packed into a laptop means so much heat. Buy a cooling pad for it.

Aero 15: So Hot Right Now. Aero 15.

I've been using it to edit video, and it's been keeping up nicely. The screen is stunning. I worry a little about the hinges, and the gigabyte 'control center' is both confusing and annoying.

So far so good.

It is great in every way. It runs my CAD software (home designer) as well as any computer I have had in the past and plays just as hard as it works. Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 both look great.

Perfect for my needs

It's awesome. Perfect, no issues with it at all. Love the OLED screen, only problem is the weird webcam placement, but it doesn't really matter for me as I have an external webcam.

The best laptop I have ever owned. Great for schoolwork, gaming, and many other things

It's a decent laptop with a nice screen, but beware the bloated software, thermal throttling, and loud fans.

It's ok, but not the best

cool minimalistic design. all parts are user replaceable. does not work with G.SKILL 64GB RAM though hence one star off.

cool design. only use approved RAM upgrade though.

After a month usage, I really like this laptop.
Pros:

1. OLED screen is worth every penny. Color accuracy is top level, great for content creation. DeltaE < 0.16
2. Performance is great, on pair with RTX 2060. CPU can do a lot with newly designed thermals.
3. Lots of ports for connectivity. Thunderbolt 3, UHS-II, Gigaite LAN is godsend.
4. Design with professional in the mind, elegant chassis, aluminium top, keyboard and bottom, hard game without those dorky game laptop edges.
5. 

cons:

Fan noise.
RGB control is buggy, can't automatic pick profile based on games in active.
Gigabyte control app has lots of bugs, dependencies.
nahimic 3 cause xbox game pass crash.
