GIGABYTE has officially expanded its 2025 AI PC portfolio with the launch of the AERO X16 and GAMING A16, joining the previously released AORUS MASTER lineup. These new laptops blend sleek design, powerful performance, and AI-enhanced tools to cater to hybrid users, gamers, and creators alike. Equipped with the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs and the exclusive GiMATE AI Agent, they redefine mobile computing for modern lifestyles.
AI Power Under the Hood
Both laptops pack up to a GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU powered by NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture, supporting DLSS 4 for enhanced visuals and speed. The AERO X16 edges slightly ahead with an 85W max graphics power compared to GAMING A16’s 80W. GiMATE AI Agent brings voice control, intelligent system tuning, and privacy tools, enabling users to create AI agents and streamline tasks using NVIDIA NIM.
Design and Display Philosophy
The AERO X16 caters to mobile creators with its minimalist 1.9kg build and just 16.75mm thickness, wrapped in a premium Space Gray or Lunar White chassis. Its WQXGA 16-inch display features a 92% screen-to-body ratio, Pantone® validation, and TÜV Rheinland® certification for color accuracy and eye comfort. Meanwhile, the GAMING A16, slightly heavier at 2.2kg, boasts a similar 16-inch WQXGA screen but ups the ante with a smooth 165Hz refresh rate ideal for fast-paced gaming.
Thermals, Audio, and Usability
For cooling, AERO X16 employs the WINDFORCE Infinity system with dual 12V fans and ambient 0dB mode for silent creative sessions. GAMING A16 takes a different route with surround venting and an “Icy Touch” zone to keep gamers cool. Both laptops support Dolby Atmos® audio, PD 3.0 fast charging, and up to 14 hours of battery life, blending endurance with immersion.
Typing and Everyday Interaction
Comfort meets performance with the shared Golden Curvature keyboard featuring enlarged keycaps and 1.7mm travel. AERO X16 includes AI tools like Copilot+, Cocreator, and Generative Fill to assist creative workflows. On the other hand, GAMING A16’s 180° lay-flat hinge and MUX Switch give casual gamers and students the flexibility and control they need.
With these two AI-powered machines now available through retailers, GIGABYTE continues its mission to deliver performance-driven innovation for diverse users. You can learn more about both models at GIGABYTE.
