The ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED is less expensive, lighter, and offers a higher resolution OLED touchscreen, which is great for general use and offers vibrant colors for media consumption. It would suit you if portability and screen quality for everyday tasks are priorities. On the other hand, the Gigabyte Aorus 15P is more expensive but comes with a far more powerful GPU and CPU, larger storage, and more memory, making it ideal for intensive gaming, 3D rendering, or machine learning tasks. The Aorus is heavier and has a lower resolution non-touch IPS display, making it less portable and less suited for tasks where color accuracy is crucial. Give Feedback

Matthew Buzzi | September 2023
"While one of the more budget-friendly configurations of the Asus Zenbook 14X OLED may make a compelling case as a top value pick, it’s difficult to be disappointed with the more expensive model we reviewed here. At its core, for all models, it’s a luxury-built laptop with extreme portability and a gorgeous OLED display. Our unit rocks with a snappy Core i9 processor for getting real work done, and the discrete GPU—even if it has a clear power ceiling—is a bonus for creative pros."

"The Aorus 15P is a high-end gaming laptop with fast 360 Hz display. Gaming performance in the Aorus 15P YD is very high thanks to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 installed here. However, with the use of the Intel Core i7-11800H, CPU performance also closes in on the strong competition from AMD. SSD performance is excellent as well, and it leaves no room for criticism. Thanks to the built-in Intel Core i7-11800H, the system performance of the Aorus 15P YD increases significantly."
