Sin duda, este Aero 15 pone a nuestra disposición una pantalla fantástica. En el resto de pruebas, no suele superar los 85º. Este parámetro nos indica, por un lado, cuánto consume un microprocesador, y, por otra parte, también cuánta energía disipa en forma de calor.
In addition to si emissions, temperatures are also problematic. Todo un logro teniendo en cuenta todos los componentes internos que incorpora este portátil de alto rendimiento. Nos encontramos un teclado de tipo chiclet, no mecánico como nos encontramos en otros modelos de la competencia, que tiene un recorrido y, sobre todo, un tacto muy satisfactorio. Hay varios efectos predefinidos, gigabyte aero 15 podremos crear nuevos a nuestro con. That means the webcam is set below the display see the webcam section. However, all that power does come with a price.
We do already know the 512 GB NVMe model Lite-on CX2-8B512 from the Dell XPS 15. A la hora de jugar, hemos estado probando el Battlefield 1 en calidad Ultra, el máximo posible, y es capaz de moverlo sin problemas con una tasa de FPS que se suele mantener habitualmente entre los 40 y 60 FPS. Gigabyte Aero 15: la opinión y nota de Xataka Este ordenador portátil es de los que dejan un buen sabor de boca.
Gigabyte's Aero 15 is obsessed with colour in the right ways - The interface layout is basically good. En la parte izquierda encontramos la salida de auriculares, un DisplayPort 1.
A multimedia notebook with gaming capabilities or a gaming laptop with all-round nature? Depending on the point of view, the brand new Aero 15 fits in both categories. Just as the recently reviewed 14-inch sibling, the , which achieved 85%, the 15-inch model uses a and a. Currently, these components are very popular in laptops from 1000 Euros. They offer a good compromise between price and performance for a notebook. The Kaby Lake processor and the Pascal graphics card are accompanied by 16 GB of DDR4 RAM and an M. The display is a matte 15. It is up to the user to decide whether the current lack of 3K or 4K options suits them best. In our opinion, a pixel density of 141 PPI is still sufficient for a 15-inch device grid not visible , especially since the GeForce GTX 1060 would reach its limits significantly faster with 2560x1440 or 3840x2160 pixels. The powerful battery is one of the biggest unique features of the Aero 15: 94 Wh is very big and can be found in only a few performance notebooks. Other highlights include the very slim display frame, which competes with the Infinite Edge design of the Dell XPS 15, and the Thunderbolt 3 port, which we have missed badly in the Aero 14. Other manufacturers already offer devices with e. The strongest competitors are comparably slim 14-inch to 15-inch models including the , the , the and the. With a height of only 19 mm ~0. The low weight also contributes to the latter: 2. Thus, the width of the case 35. As can be seen in the images below, there are three color variants of the Aero 15 or more precisely its lid. Apart from classic black, Gigabyte also offers a subtle green and a medium-bold orange. We have reviewed the black model, from which we took the rest of the images. Unlike several other Gigabyte notebooks wobbly keyboard from the past, the quality of this 15-inch model appears to be very good. The chassis, which is primarily made of aluminum, is meticulously built and can hardly be twisted even when strong pressure is applied - despite slim construction. We could only observe creaking noises near the Ethernet port and in some parts of the palm rests. The display hinge, which extends over almost the entire width and allows a view of the fan grilles, does not show flows. Although the device can be easily opened with one hand, the lid does not wobble too much when the device sits on a vibrating surface. Even though the dark surfaces - as usual - smudge easily fingerprints, etc. Furthermore, a card reader, two USB-3. On the left side, Gigabyte has placed a third USB-3. In our opinion, the combined audio port is a slight disadvantage. Separate ports for headphones and microphone would give users more options. The interface layout is basically good. Since most interfaces are located towards the rear, a mouse can be easily attached on the left or right of the computer, and connected cables should hardly get in the way. The front and rear sides of the Aero 15 are free of ports. While the Aero 15 performs worst among the comparison group 346 vs. Intel's Dual Band 8265 is used as Wi-Fi adapter. A Gigabit Ethernet controller from Realtek is responsible for wired networking. Maintenance is a mixed bag in the Aero 15. Since there is no dedicated maintenance hatch, you have to remove the entire underside for cleaning or upgrading. It is fixed with 13 Torx screws and can only be pushed out of the bracing with a lot of force it is best to start at the card reader. If you do not mind taking the trouble, you will get access to the cooling system two fans + two heatpipes , the Wi-Fi module, the two RAM slots and the two M. The battery can also be reached only from the inside. As in most notebooks, it is not possible to replace CPU and GPU, since they are soldered. The pre-installed software is typical for Gigabyte and includes Smart Update update of drivers and tools , Fusion configuration of macros, configuration of the keyboard light , and Smart Dashboard system monitor. Many of the components are accessible via the so-called Smart Manager, which can also be used for changing the volume and display brightness, or de activating Wi-Fi, the HD web cam, the touchpad and the Windows key. Smart Color and Fan Tweak are most interesting. The first allows adjusting the display quality; the latter makes fan control possible. If nothing else is mentioned, Native Color and Normal modes are used in our tests see screenshot. The Chiclet keyboard of the Aero 15 comes with a relatively even, two-level RGB light. With a size of 15 x 15 mm ~0. In order to make a separate number block and a thin display frame possible, Gigabyte has omitted the Macro bar of the Aero 14. The typing experience is good. The keyboard delivers a good acoustical and tactile feedback. However, larger keys such as space and enter are quite loud. The layout is a matter of taste. For example, we disliked that Ins and Del are on the same key. Overall, prolific writers might be happy with the keyboard quality. Gamers who like to use arrow keys can also be relieved: Unlike other laptops, such as the Dell XPS 15, these have not been shrunk. Since Gigabyte had brought both, a German and an English variant, to the press visit, the images below show both keyboard models. It is a matter of taste whether you prefer a conventional touchpad with dedicated mouse buttons or a ClickPad. As in the Aero 14, Gigabyte uses the latter technology. The slightly lowered surface with a size of 10. For a ClickPad, you can hardly complain about precision. However, right clicks have not always been registered reliably in our test model we had to press several times. Apart from a few exceptions, gesture control did not show anomalies. As in most devices, zooming and scrolling with two fingers is possible. This also applies to rotating after enabling it in the touchpad driver. In order to avoid wrong inputs in games or when using the WASD area, the mouse replacement is not fully centered to the space bar, but has been moved slightly to the right. If you do not want to take any risk at all, you can deactivate the touchpad. The Full HD IPS display called N156HCA-EA1 CMN15D7 of our test model can convince in most aspects. With 890:1, the contrast is also decent, even though several competitors exceed the 1000 level. The same is true of the black value of 0. Thanks to the slim display frame, it is hardly noticeable that dark parts look slightly grayish. On paper, the device achieves a good brightness distribution of 90%. Basically, the small backlight bleeding in the bottom left and right corners, which showed in our test model, never disturbed us in everyday use this would require a very dark environment and a very uniform image. Typical users who want to use the Aero 15 primarily for gaming, writing, or surfing, might be happy with the image quality. However, there are some limitations for professional users. First of all, the color space is suboptimal with 92% of sRGB and 60% of AdobeRGB. In addition, the display does not have high color fidelity in Native Color mode. With a DeltaE-2000 deviation of 6 grayscale and 4. However, we can give the all-clear: In order to target image and video experts, Gigabyte has equipped the Aero 15 with an X-Rite Pantone certified display with special color profile, which can be easily activated via the Smart Manager. As our measurements show, it improves the color precision so much that further calibration is not necessary. The response time is not that excellent: 32 ms in black-to-white and 43 ms in gray-to-gray are significantly beaten by TN or OLED panels. However, we did not detect blurring or the like in our gaming tests. In addition, a heavy flickering shows at up to 20% brightness. However, with 26000 Hz, its frequency is very high and therefore, it should not be noticeable not even for sensitive persons. On the other hand, the IPS technology scores points in viewing angle stability. Even at very flat angles, the image changes only slightly. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0. » 82 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices 25. This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 26000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 54 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8882 minimum: 43 - maximum: 142900 Hz was measured. Despite its compact size, the Aero 15 does not have to do without powerful hardware. Although cheaper quad core models such as the and energy efficient ULV chips would bring sufficient performance for most applications, Gigabyte has incorporated a fully-fledged 45-watt CPU with Hyperthreading support. The stems from Intel's Kaby-Lake generation and is currently one of the most successful notebook CPUs. In order to justify the high price, the manufacturer has incorporated an M. We do already know the 512 GB NVMe model Lite-on CX2-8B512 from the Dell XPS 15. Not only does the operating system boot very fast, it is also very responsive. If 512 GB is too small for you in the long run, you can add a second M. We can understand why Gigabyte decided to use the space for a particularly big battery. Since computer games require more and more VRAM, a graphic card with 6 GB of VRAM is perfect. The is a top modern DirectX-12 model, which is based on Nvidia's Pascal architecture and is the entry to the high-end range. As with Intel's Core processors, GeForce GPUs can dynamically overclock. In the case of the GTX 1060 the Turbo ranges is 1405 to 1671 MHz and up to 1911 MHz can be reached under ideal conditions render test of the GPU-Z tool. According to our measurements, you can expect about 1550 MHz in practice Unigine Heaven 4. Let us turn to its gaming performance, which is also not bad. All 11 tested games ran smoothly in native resolution of 1920x1080 and with high to very high details. Often, there are even sufficient reserves for multiple anti-aliasing. You cannot always say this of the mid-range GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti. However, those who like to play games on 3K or 4K displays should opt for at least a GeForce GTX 1070. Considering the ultra-thin case, the cooling system does a good job. With an average of 39 dB A in 3DMark 06, the Aero 15 is slightly louder than the MSI GS63VR 37 dB A , but significantly quieter than the Dell XPS 15 47 dB A and the Razer Blade 51 dB A. During demanding 3D programs games, etc. The 50 dB A listed in the table only refers to the stress test with FurMark and Prime95. You can hardly complain about the idle performance either. While the fans tend to whir, 32 to 34 dB A are basically quite quiet. In addition, the Aero can run silently in Quiet mode Smart Manager. Thus the 15-inch laptop also cuts a fine figure in quiet environments university, library,... Another advantage: Unlike other devices, the Gigabyte laptop does not suffer from coil whining or unnecessary fan accelerations according to our experiences. As soon as load is applied, the two fans slowly increase their speed. After one hour stress test, the rear third of the top side reached 56 °C ~133 °F. Although this value is quite high compared to the competitors, the WASD section and the palm rests remain significantly cooler. The chassis temperature is especially good in idle mode. Just under 24 °C ~75 °F on top side and underside confirm a comfortable office use. The temperatures do not get too high during web surfing and video playback either. The mediocre sound is one of the few weaknesses of the Aero 15. As in most slim notebooks, the incorporated stereo sound system is rather an interim solution. If possible, you should connect the laptop to external speakers in stationary use. Although mid and high tones are not at all poor and even better than the Dell XPS 15's according to our measurements, videos, music, and games sound quite tinny and one-dimensional. Not to mention the modest bass. Bass is hardly present without subwoofer. At least the speakers are not much too quiet with a maximum of 79 dB A 71 dB A Dell XPS 15. On top of that, it might be difficult to accomplish a better sound in such slim cases. The manufacturer has omitted Nvidia's G-Sync technology, which is triumphant in gaming notebooks, and has implemented the graphic switch instead, so that the laptop can last as long as possible. If you consider all results, the idle power consumption is almost identical to that of the Dell XPS 15's 12 to 20 vs. Despite the same CPU, the Acer Aspire VN7-593G and the Razer Blade 2017 are even more efficient in idle mode. Gigabyte makes up for this disadvantage with a significantly larger battery. Instead of 69 or 70 Wh, the Aero 15 comes with high 94 Wh. Only the Dell XPS 15 can keep up in this aspect with its 97 Wh. In the first scene of 3DMark 06, the GTX 1060 notebooks range between 74 and 95 watts. The 150-watt adapter should still be able to handle the maximum of 161 watts during full load. Users who like to travel find a great companion in the Aero 15. Unlike typical gaming notebooks which need to be recharged after 4 to 5 hours of web surfing or video playback apart from a few exceptions , the Aero 15 lasted above 7 hours in our Internet test and in our HD video test energy profile: balanced, medium display brightness. With this result, the 15-inch laptop can compete with the Dell XPS 15 and outperform its competitors from MSI and Acer, which - as already mentioned - feature significantly smaller batteries. One exception is the Razer Blade 2017, which lasts 9 hours in web surfing despite its 24 Wh smaller battery. Note: the 3D performance falls by about 20% on battery 30 vs. Whether you consider the Aero 15 primarily as an all-rounder or a gaming platform, Gigabyte has taken an important step forward in its notebook development. Not only its balanced hardware, but also its various features, which can only rarely be found in competitors, contribute to the positive impression of the Aero 15. For example, the very small display frame ensures a stylish look. Furthermore, the display calibration X-Rite Pantone and the Thunderbolt 3 port, which is finally used by Gigabyte, deserve praise. The battery runtime is also respectable. Only few performance notebooks exceed 7 to 8 hours in everyday Windows use. There are hardly any serious complaints. Apart from a disappointing sound quality, we have only to criticize the steep price and the not always reliable touchpad. Overall, the Aero 15 proves to be a worthy rival to the multimedia top dogs the , the , and the.
