Amazing High Performance Gaming Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning my old acer aspire e5 575g gaming laptop for 5+ years I’ve decided to get an new upgraded Msi cyborg 15 a12 gaming laptop from best buy and after when it came in ive done some upgrading and testing. After the full result I immediately fell in love with it and would say definitely worth it for your buck if you are looking for a high performance gaming laptop. The only downside about it is once you first recive this laptop it will come with default of 8gb of ram ddr5 4800mhz and 512GB. But after installing more ram with 4800mhz and maybe storage youll be pretty much set. (If upgrading ram use 2 sodimm ddr5 ram slots of between 16GB - 64GB) (if upgrading storage it only has one m.2 pcie x4 slot. So you can do between 1TB - 4TB if not satisfied with 512GB).

solid laptop (even better if you add RAM)
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.really solid specs on the laptop but was unable to do video editing until I upgraded the RAM. I went with 32gb (2x16) but i’m sure even just adding 8 would be plenty. with only 8gb it seems to run smoothly until you try to run a heavy workload, cpu and gpu will remain underutilized and the ram at 99%. build quality is what you would expect at the price point, if a bit more sturdy since the top is made from metal. great for light editing, can smoothly decode 4k 10 bit 4:2:2 in real time, especially when plugged in (after ram upgrade). 4 stars instead of 5 because accessing the area to upgrade the RAM voids the warranty. do so at your own risk or pay a professional to do it for you! best buy probably offers this service

Good for the price, if you’re willing to upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it knowing I’d need to upgrade it. 8Gb of RAM isn’t enough and the CPU and GPU would max out. I went way overkill and got 48 Gb of RAM (16 GB would be more than enough for most people), it was super easy to upgrade, and still cheaper than the 16 Gb option, so no complaints here. Don’t buy if you aren’t able to/willing to upgrade though. Also for those complaining/curious about battery life, I’ve seen more expensive laptops with worse battery life, gaming laptops just use a lot of power, you’re not getting 2 hours of battery life in most situations (Photos: First 16 Gb RAM upgrade, Pre upgrade, and post upgrade task manager)

Upgradeable easy powerhouse laptop
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best laptop for the price with the Nvidia 40 series, lacks in the ram department which will still allow you to play games like fortnite Minecraft and a lot of low ram games, but a high ram game like warzone gives a little bit of fps drop, i recently bought a ram upgrade to help with this problem. This laptop looks easy to upgrade and install parts.

Great laptop with expected low battery life.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love this laptop so far. Like all gaming laptops, the battery life leaves much to be desired but that’s not a problem with this specific laptop, just in general with the type. I have not yet used it for gaming but I’m sure it will hold up well. Only removing a star because the battery runs super hot even when on an aerated surface and not running games, which is mildly concerning. I wasn’t even watching videos. No other glaring flaws.

MSI Cyborg 15 Review: Translucent Gaming Laptop With Equally Cloudy PerformanceIt's one of the lowest-cost RTX 4050 laptops, but the Cyborg 15's GPU is restricted from running at full power, which puts a cap on 3D performance. And its display disappoints, too.
