Love the Lightweight Design

In the box is the laptop, charger, starting guide.
First Impression - Even inside of the box, you can feel just how lightweight the Gigabyte Aero X16 Copilot is. It’s nearly weightless, one of the lightest laptops for gaming that I’ve ever held. The small starting guide is written in the box but the entire package is eco-friendly, no extra paper or plastic waste. The laptop rest is a pair of cardboard pieces when nestled into one another make the perfect vented stand to place the laptop on. The laptop itself also feels rather small, almost smaller than your average two in one. The box that it comes with can be reused and has a handle, but the laptop itself is small enough to fit in even some larger purses, so using that as a carrying case seems inefficient.
Its hardware features an 80% keyboard with no ten-key; two usb-a, one usb-c, HDMI, DC-in, and Ethernet ports. I was pleasantly surprised as I wasn’t sure what to expect with such a thin laptop. After some short setup, you can use the computer’s Gi-Mate feature at the press of the corresponding key on the keyboard. Gi-Mate virtual assistant who makes adjustments to your computer’s hardware however you ask it to. Turn up the fans, change the keyboard color, turn on gaming mode, all at the quick button press and request of the Gi-Mate.
And despite its size, its AMD Ryzen 7 core runs all the latest PC games with ease; and its nearly 1000GB storage capacity means plenty of things can fit in its tiny package. There is only one issue I can think of, that Gigabyte more than likely already thought of. Without some sort of lift the laptop does warm up fairly quickly. This isn’t a problem for anyone that already uses some sort of laptop stand, but I wouldn’t advise leaving it flat with no ventilation.
Overall I feel like the Gigabyte Aero X16 Copilot is good competition to all the more well known gaming laptops and truly stands toe to toe. It’s impressive hardware packed into a slim and lightweight design make it a very good gift choice for gamers on the go, or anyone that prefer its ease of carry over a bigger laptop.
I would recommend to friends and family!
