AORUS Craft: Inside the craftsmanship of the 2024 AORUS 16X

The AORUS family of laptops has consistently pushed the boundaries of performance and portability. With every new iteration, our goal is not just to enhance performance but also to showcase craftsmanship that distinguishes our gaming laptops. The 2024 AORUS 16X AI gaming laptop features a sleek and powerful all-new design. Let's delve deeper into the craftsmanship involved and explore what sets this laptop apart.

4-sided Super-slim Bezels

One of the standout features of the AORUS 16X is its super-slim bezels, measuring just 3mm at their thinnest point. Despite this slim profile, we've managed to fit a 16-inch display into the frame of a conventional 15-inch laptop, offering an expansive viewing experience in a compact, portable package. What a way to carry your game on the go!

NIL Technology

To break away from traditional dark finishes, we've utilized nanoimprint lithography (NIL) technology for optical lamination. Similar to the craftsmanship adopted on silicon chips, this intricate process involves stacking nine layers to create a unique water wave lighting effect we call Aurora Gray, allowing the AORUS 16X to shine in the darkness.

Iridescent Logo and Nameplate

The AORUS logo and nameplates undergo the same advanced NIL technology, refracting subtle blue-ish hints when viewed from different angles. This adds a touch of sophistication to the laptop while ensuring the branding remains prominent yet seamlessly integrated into the overall design.

AORUS Beacon

RGB lighting is a key element of gaming aesthetics, and the AORUS 16X doesn't disappoint. In addition to the RGB light bar along the rear edge, we've introduced the AORUS Beacon—an RGB light projector that illuminates the AORUS brand on the desk surface, providing a visually striking yet understated way for users to showcase their identity. This is also a first in gaming laptops. Imagine how cool it would be to take the AORUS 16X out for a spin.

Semi-translucent Keycaps

The WASD and QWER keycaps feature a semi-translucent design, adding to the keyboard's gaming appeal. Alongside per-key customizable RGB illumination, these keycaps allow for easy key identification in the dark, ensuring you can swiftly assume battle positions, even in low-light conditions.

Super Portability

Despite its power-packed performance, the AORUS 16X remains remarkably portable, measuring just 2cm thin and weighing 2.3kg, making it 12% more compact than its smaller predecessor, the AORUS 15. Thanks to WINDFORCE Infinity cooling technology, which features thinner yet highly efficient fans and heat sinks, the laptop delivers superior cooling performance in a thinner and lighter form factor.

AORUS Go Green 

We're committed to environmental responsibility, which is why the AORUS 16X employs low-formaldehyde coating technology and utilizes eco-friendly packaging materials. By minimizing the generation of toxic chemicals and actively reducing plastic usage, we're doing our part to protect the planet.

The 2024 AORUS 16X represents a harmonious blend of cutting-edge design, performance, and environmental consciousness. It's not just a gaming laptop; it's a statement of style, innovation, and responsibility. Learn more about the AORUS 16X:
