5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing value
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2024
I bought this laptop for college and for gaming on the side and it is exactly what I was looking for it's really powerful and while it's expensive the price matches it and is an overall amazing value. Keyboard looks really cool and feels amazing to use. It is a very good build quality and not very heavy. Has a webcam and mic and everything you need for video calling and work, etc.. the fans do get pretty noisy sometimes but I don't mind this at all. I would definitely recommend this product. One thing I would recommend though is a cooling pad as gaming laptops tend to run hot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now, this is what I have been waiting for!
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024
It works great. Love MSI Center. Does not crash or hang up. All of my old games load and play. Did not work like that before. Automatically sets compatibility modes and asks if worked or not so can adjust or Leave the settings. Been spot on every time.
Running new games on extreme and high settings. No issues at all. Forza Horizon 5, Red Dead Redemption, etc.... are real cool. No issues. The graphics are OUTSTANDING. On Laptop screen and on my 70" TV.
Worth the price. Spent enough money on things that should work.
This DOES work. Quite nicely.
Uninstaller One Drive cloud crap and Microsoft 365 so I don't lose my pictures and they are not interfering with other important things.
Sure like the Start menu a lot better. Simple and easy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Gaming, Adequate for Work/Travel
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2024
For the price, the specs are very nice. Most laptops with these specs would cost typically $1800. The laptop performs great when playing games and doing any type of work with its fast processor and quick gpu. The RAM is nice for multitasking and ensuring smooth gameplay. However, there are a few downsides about this laptop which I will list below:

1. Poor, poor battery life. Expect maybe 2 hours of use when running on battery life even for casual browsing and whatnot. Performance on these types of laptops drop significantly when not plugged in.
2. The keyboard feels a little on the cheap side. The keyboard on this laptop feels slightly worse than the keyboard on my $800 acer laptop. The customizable backlights are nice, but I would rather have better keys than cool aesthetics.
3. If you want to install a camera blocker on this, like the ones that you can slide open and closed, than too bad. The rubber bumper hugs the top of the camera making it impossible to do so. I guess a piece of tape would work though.

Overall, for the price, it is well worth the purchase. If you plan on using this a lot for traveling and doing work, where you will run it on battery power, than definitely do not get this laptop. If you plan to use this where you were going to have it plugged in a lot and are an avid game player, then this laptop is definitely for you. The large screen is great, The specs are powerful, and it is a great value laptop.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great bang for your buck
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2024
I have been testing it sith editing softwares like the adobe suite and davinci resolve with no issue at all, for ganes only used it a couple of times with a VR headset and it was great, it storage is ok for work, but for what I do is better to use external disks. It is not a very portable solution due to it size and weight, but definitively can take you out of an emergency while away. I think it responds very fast to editing but the battery life is not that great, haven’t figure out how to last more than 3 hours, but I think for this kind of computers that’s the usual “good lasting” time

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Good
Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2024
Works good, runs as expected. Set up wasn't bad and I was able to turn off or uninstall most things I didn't want. It does heat up your room very quickly and can be quite loud, but I didn't notice it that often. I use it for both games and work, and the gaming is pretty good with not too much lagging even for higher end games.

This thing is amazing for productivity and gaming

It's hard to really even find a complaint for this thing, MSI really hit it out of the ballpark

5.0 out of 5 stars ????11/10 Experience ????
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2024
Shipment arrived in pristine condition, guts align with listing, stress tested hard AF - she held like a champ.
The ONLY NEGATIVE was that Norton was on my image, but I'm not gonna knock points off for Microsoft & Norton's legacy contracts.
