Eyecare function developed by the GIGABYTE Software Team is also introduced to allow automatic brightness adjustments based on the light source in the environment.
The user’s eyes are always cared for, even after long hours of use. The enlarged 16-inch 16:10 display, with broadened upper and lower parts, offers extra viewing area within the limited size of the laptop. Apart from immersive gameplays, it is also capable of enhancing multi-tasking, with audio and video editing software for content creators, development for software engineers, and other office or coding tasks that require more screen space. With less scrolling and window switching, user productivity can be pushed to the limit!
AORUS 16 gaming sophistication – portable battle-readiness
With the simplicity, subtlety, and the outstanding beauty of the AORUS gaming series, the appearance design is a stylish black greeted with a groovy rainbow bridge RGB light strip, denoting a black hole that connects the gaming world with real life, always ready to be summoned for instant switches between gaming and real life. To make the battle-readiness portable for the latest AORUS 16, GIGABYTE has adopted a short but powerful gallium nitride adapter. Different from traditional 280W adapters, it is not only lighter in weight and more efficient, but also its size is reduced by 40%, allowing gamers to pack light and be battle-ready anywhere, anytime.
What’s more, the 99Wh battery has the largest capacity available for in-flight use, delivering ultra-performance for a long time without needing to charge.

As for the Thunderbolt™ 4 ports at the back, apart from high-speed transmission and external display, they also support power delivery, meeting emergency charging needs outdoors.
In addition, AORUS 16 supports the latest gen DDR5 RAM and PCIe Gen4 SSD, increasing loading speed and overall performance. The FHD 1080p camera supports Windows Hello facial recognition logins and the TPM 2.0 safety function, ensuring cybersecurity on top of all the outstanding gaming performance and work efficiency enhancements.
