Gigabyte's Aorus 15G has been updated with the new graphics unit RTX 3070. Unfortunately, the manufacturer seems to have made some cuts as a result of this upgrade, as several features from last year's model are no longer included. Can the new graphics performance outweigh these omissions or might the predecessor actually be the better choice?

Regarding the quite different screen performance with the previous model using the same panel. Is this likely to be the panel now being made better by Sharp, the panel being better calibrated by the laptop manufacturer, or just variation between panels of the same type (or dumb luck). Or is there no way to know?

I feel like the latter. I've been in search of the Aorus laptop some time ago after reading reviews here and on other websites mentioning how good is the panel. Unfortunately, was disappointed, the screen looked washed out, and I checked in several shops - it was the same. They shipped the laptop to reviewers with one panel, and then to the customers with the other panel.

Yes, this is the difficulty I have, finding the models reviewed actually available to purchase. Does anyone know of a good forum where people are posting the actual panels the get for given models?

I bought the Aorus 17G with 3070. That one still has fingerprint reader and mechanical KB, hasn't changed a thing. 3070 hits 105W under Turbo mode and has peaked up to 170W tdp. LOVE IT!  :-*
