The Dell Latitude is more budget-friendly and offers the versatility of a 2-in-1 device, ideal for general use and on-the-go productivity, while the Gigabyte Aorus boasts superior performance suited for heavy tasks like gaming, 3D design, and machine learning, but it's heavier and typically has shorter battery life. If you prioritize power for demanding applications and can accommodate a higher price and less portability, the Aorus is better, but for everyday tasks, travel-friendly use, and a lighter hit on your wallet, the Dell Latitude is the sensible choice.

How the Dell Latitude 5330 2-in-1 and the Gigabyte Aorus 17G compare to other laptops
"The Aorus 17G isn't among the top RTX 3080 laptops due to its relatively low TGP of 105 watts. The device's gaming performance is average for an RTX 3080. For maximum performance, competitors like the Lenovo Legion 7 or the Alienware m17 R4 are recommended With the Aorus 17G, Gigabyte delivers a well-rounded gaming laptop. However, the device generates a high noise level. Throttling is not an issue. The CPU and GPU can develop their performance uniformly. Nevertheless, the device produces a lot of noise under load - more than many competitors."
