Just seen the first review of a v7 laptop - the X3 Plus v7. Can't fathom the decision not to include Thunderbolt 3. I've been waiting with cash ready for either the X5 or the X7 since their announcement and if they turn out not to have it either, I'd be very disappointed. And I'm worried about the trackpad too. Hope I've not been waiting in vain.
According to OcUK page the X5v7 has TB3 - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/aoru...tel-core-i7-7820hk-gaming-lapt-lt-02m-au.html
I'm pretty sure the X7 v7 has it too. At least... I think I remember seeing it on the specs list from when it was announced.

Hi to all, my first post in OcUK.
I've been reading around for a while now, and posting here coz found people more polite and willing to help more than in other forums.
I'm about to renew my oven GS70 2PE by the end of june, and not clear yet if will go for the GS73VR 7RG or the X7 V7.
My question now is, has been any change on the 1440p 120 Hz panel to solve the banding issue?
I read Alienware addressed it by replacing the AUO1096 with the AUO1496, and as per an owner comments, not just the banding is gone, but it also looks better on color accuracy.
Thanks!

Hi Lehendario, unable to confirm the exact part number of the panel we will be using at this moment, but yes, the issues that were reported on some panels have now been solved at source (ie the panel manufacturer) so the quality will be what was originally expected.
Hope that clarifies.

Hi Atom80,
Sorry you are right, only some units had the banding issue, and clearly wasn't an Aorus issue, but AU Optronics.
Crystal clear now, thanks!
Looking forward to see the new machine!

If you want feedback Atom80 I will say communication is pretty dire.
Aorus forums 2 months still no response.
Aorus facebook 4 Apologies because they can't get an answer not even an estimation.
Here still waiting on a date for the X7 V7 release.
Aorus sales email no reply to 3 emails.
Poor imo especially because this is sales.

Hi Evansd,
We are in Taiwan at the moment, so communication a bit out of sync with OcUK and UK time zone. But thanks for highlighting the areas above - this has been escalated internally and emailed very "directly" from me to HQ team.
In explaining the reasons, it is difficult, and of course we understand the frustration caused, we feel it also - because it is sales, as you said. All of our marketing team in HQ, can only share what they are able to, and of course we don't want to make false commitment that doesn't happen, so we are always "cautious" not to do this.
It is far from perfect, and for me even worse, because I was in CES in Jan, so am VERY aware of how long "WE" have been waiting.
Sincere apologies.
Regards,
Atom80

Hola a todos, bonjour à tous, 你好, tere, hej allesamman - or "hello everyone".
I am indeed here to protect and to serve. Or something along those lines. The idea is that I'll be keeping an eye out and as I'm sitting literally metres away from the engineers at AORUS HQ I can take your feedback straight to them, rather than referring you to official channels.
This is a bit of a side quest of mine, so I'll "only" be checking in a couple of times a week, but in case of tech issues, product feedback or just general ideas related to our products, don't hesitate to tag me in your posts.
