The Dell Latitude 5330, being significantly less expensive, is designed more for business users with its white backlit keyboard, long battery life, and high portability. It presents a solid choice for general use and has a good balance of performance for daily tasks. However, the Gigabyte Aorus 5, while more expensive, packs a powerful main processor and a high-end graphics unit, making it better suited for gaming, 3D rendering, machine learning, and heavy engineering applications. It also features customizable RGB keyboard lighting but is heavier and has shorter battery life, diminishing its portability. Both have similar memory and storage, but the Aorus 5 doubles the storage space and boasts a much higher screen refresh rate which is excellent for fast-motion content. Choose the Latitude 5330 for cost-effectiveness and mobility or the Aorus 5 for superior performance in demanding tasks and gaming. Give Feedback

The Gigabyte Aorus 5 is good for gaming and AI, while the Dell Latitude 5330 is only fair.
The Dell Latitude 5330, with its Intel Iris Xe graphics, is less suited for gaming and 3D applications than the Gigabyte Aorus 5, which boasts a more powerful Nvidia RTX 3070 graphics card and a higher screen refresh rate, resulting in smoother visuals and better performance in demanding tasks. While the Latitude is lighter and more portable with its smaller screen and lower weight, the Aorus 5's superior GPU and CPU cater to the needs of gamers and professionals requiring advanced graphics capabilities, albeit in a less portable form factor.

The Gigabyte Aorus 5 is very good for engineering and design, while the Dell Latitude 5330 is only fair.
The Gigabyte Aorus 5 outperforms the Dell Latitude 5330 in engineering and design primarily due to its superior central processing unit (CPU) and dedicated graphics processing unit (GPU), enhancing the capability to handle demanding software and tasks. While the Dell provides better portability and longer battery life, the Aorus 5's larger screen and higher screen refresh rate offer a more vivid and responsive visual experience, albeit at the cost of being heavier and having less battery longevity.

Vincent Chang | June 2022
"The Gigabyte Aorus 5 SE4 is a capable mainstream gaming notebook that will run the latest PC games with aplomb. However, it's not your stereotypical flashy gaming PC. Gigabyte has added some interesting tweaks. For example, the webcam placement and its Microsoft Azure AI tool — to automatically switch between power modes — are unusual for this genre. But more importantly, the pricing is fairly competitive and reasonable."
