Pros and Cons

AORUS 15G

Strengths

The keyboard is definitely the star of the show. If you're someone that does a lot of typing but doesn't need to do it in a quiet area then the mechanical keyboard alone could be worth considering.
Most others that have this are typically bigger machines, though there are others that are decent like the Eluktronics Mech-15 G3, but in my personal opinion the Aorus does feel better. Overall build quality with the all metal design felt nice
There's a good selection of I/O though would have been good to see some more Gen2 USB instead of all Gen1.
The screen had good colour gamut and brightness

Weaknesses

the performance wasn't where I'd like. There are big vents underneath and the fans can get quite loud
It's always going to be a trade off, this way it can't get hot, but it also means when compared to alternatives your performance starts looking lower
The cooling looks good, but the performance wasn’t where I’d like
In Adobe Photoshop the Aorus was lower compared to the others, which makes sense as this is a processor heavier test

Asus Vivobook 15X OLED

Strengths

The laptop's price of 3,299 ring is an incredible value.
The OLED screen has a resolution of 2880 by 1620 and a refresh rate of 120 Hz, covering 100% of both sRGB and DCI P3 color gamuts.
The battery life is not bad, although it varies depending on usage patterns (6-8 hours).
The inclusion of a number pad is a nice feature.

Weaknesses

The keyboard feels mushy with short travel distance and no responsive feedback.
The trackpad has issues with palm rejection and multi-touch detection, leading to accidental zoom gestures.
The integrated Radeon GPU can only manage around 30 FPS in games even at low settings.
The USB type-c port is limited in its utility due to firmware or hardware limitations.
