- Here we are at the Gigabyte Suite for Computex 2019. This is the VIP showroom at a different location, so naturally, one would expect to see some VIP products and that's what we've got right here. The Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED. This has a Samsung 4k AMOLED display inside running at 60Hz. Naturally, my curiosity is sparked since I do have a 1,000 FPS camera, I am able to run that and not only tell you guys the response times of the actual monitor itself, but also the input latency. Since this monitor is designed for creators, it isn't really pitched for gamers, it's still important to have those features. Me personally as a gamer, I like to double down and use my computer for video editing or vice versa and I know a lot of people do, so let's quickly run those tests for you guys since I am on the showroom floor here and then we will report back with the numbers in text and let you know if that's good or not. (upbeat music) In terms of the specs, we're looking at ninth gen i7's and I'm told that an i9 variant will come of this. This is to be released at the end of June and it will feature an RTX 2060 as well as 2070 or 2080 or a 1660 TI if you want to go in with the entry level choice. As for the bezel, it's three millimeters thin, so very thin option and it does carry wifi 6 compatibility as well as having all your standard thunderbolt support, USB 3.0 and also a UHS SD card reader for someone who actually wants to create, so that content creator label is starting to fit the bill very well. With an OLED screen versus an ITS or a TN panel, the colors are going to come out so vibrant on this particular PC. On top of that, they've also got two models in the making, a gloss finish and a matte finish. Me personally, I've always been a fan since the beginning of monitors of the gloss finish. There is the semi-gloss finish, which is somewhere in between, but you guys have to let us know in the comments section below, are you digging the matte finish or the gloss finish? I know a lot of people tend to slide towards the matte, but me personally I do love the gloss finish as it does let those colors, and especially with OLED, the colors shine through more vibrantly. Also calling down a laptop of 94 watt TDP is very important. They've got seven intakes and four outtakes with five heat pipes designed over two fans with 71 blades. All this is coming in under two kilograms and 20 millimeters in total height with Nahimic 3D audio and I'm told the battery life is pretty good too, supporting up to 5.5 hours of usage, of course depending on how you use it. Moving forward a notch here, we've got the model that's designed for both gamers and creators, so that means a different screen. A 1080p 144Hz IPS panel or a sharp IGZO 240Hz display. I do have the 1,000 FPS camera, so what we're going to do is quickly roll those tests and report back to you guys with the numbers. (upbeat music) Basically to my eyes, the 240Hz display was a lot clearer and I do 100% with confidence say that the numbers from the 1,000 FPS camera will show that. As for the input lag, that's going to be pretty interesting to see too, but I do believe again, a 240Hz panel with pretty much the same hardware inside should show a difference in favor of the 240Hz panel. As for the specs, the classic does step it down in going from 4k to 1080p, but it does carry those faster refresh rates, but naturally it is coming in with a lower price point, it is already released to market. You do get an RTX 2060, 2070, or 2080 and a choice of those flavors, but of course as you step it up from a 2060 to a 2080 for example, it will set you back more money. The TDP rating is pretty much the same as the OLED display, but another thing Ontoktu mentioned is that the battery life is also good, but they are taking away the wifi 6 and it does have wifi 5 on this particular model. The differences between the killer NIC's as well. You're going from a 2500 to a 2600 on the OLED display and in terms of the color graded displays themselves, XRite is already on top of that, so as soon as you get this laptop, it is ready to start editing photos or video because it has been color graded. These are those same ones that I use in the studio when I'm doing monitor reviews to test if the displays are good from the get-go, so these have it automatically certified out of the box. In terms of pricing, you can expect these things to be pretty expensive, especially the OLED displays. I am told if you are in Australia, it's going to cost in excess of $3,000 for one of these laptops, but with that aside guys, let us know in the description below what you think of the 1,000 FPS testing here on the floor at Computex and also do you prefer the matte or gloss finish, love reading your thoughts and opinions as always and with that aside, I'll catch you in another tech video very soon, but if you're enjoying this coverage then be sure to hit that like button and hit that sub button, ring the bell. If you want to see the videos the moment they drop and the lights have turned out here, it is 6:00PM. I've got to get out of there. I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon. Peace out for now, bye. (upbeat music)
