GIGABYTE AERO 16

Strengths

The new OLED model utilizing NVIDIA's RTX 40 series is a much better product than its predecessor, with a more pleasing design, improved port lineup, and enhanced performance.
The keyboard feels great to type on, with switches that are 1.5-1.7 millimeters but have enough force for comfortable typing.
The display is gorgeous, with deep blacks, perfect colors, and impeccable contrast ratios.
The laptop runs very cool, thanks to its improved heat management, which keeps the system temperature under control even during intense workloads.

Weaknesses

The battery life may be around 3-4 hours for true hardcore work, which might not be sufficient for some users.
The webcam is 1080P, but there's no high refresh rate option available, which could be a letdown for some creators who also game on the side.
The speakers are not great, being very flat and tinny, making it necessary to use headphones with this laptop.
The touchpad click is very audible and feels cheap, although it's glass and easy to use.
