Customer Ratings & Reviews

Amazing performance in all aspects, a little noisy but if you use headphones there is no problem, very nice cooling system to avoid overheating tested and proved to be optimal.

I am very picky when it comes to laptops. I usually stick to desktops due to speed. However, this laptop makes me want to play games purely on it as opposed to my desktop. Took a few minutes of setup but was online in a flash. If you are a serious gamer, this laptop is a monster and can run even more intensive games such as deep RPG games. If you want a lower-end laptop, those can most likely handle Fortnite and MOBA's such as League of Legends. Laptop can also handle live-streaming and video editing. My only downside would be the lack of a cd/dvd drive, but my understanding is this allows the computer to be faster without it.

this laptop is very stylish and light. easy to use and fast. great for gaming. the logo when you turn off the screen is cool.

I've done my research and it was between this, the Aero 15X, and Razer Blade. The Razer Blade went for around 2700, overheated a ton, and it was hard to obtain. The Aero 15X had problems such as trackpad and keyboard ghosting and backlight bleed. But the MSI GS65 was the best due to its price and performance. The only main concern was the build quality, but this laptop feels super nice and its not really a big deal. Looks beautiful with the gold accents and is definitly a laptop you should consider.

This laptop is all around excellent. It is lightweight and portable, but also powerful enough to match up against many desktop systems. The price and features cannot be beat.

I was in between this laptop and the razer blade 15.6". I ended up getting the cheaper option, the msi. The make is pretty good, but the hinges for the screen are a little too wobbly for my taste and the amount of bloatware is annoying. Other than that its a super powerful computer and would definitely recommend!

I bought this laptop and everything ran very smoothly. The graphics along with the back-lit keyboard give me something to show off to my friends. After about 3 months the Wifi chip stopped working, I took it to best buy and they promptly replaced it. Since then my new one has had no issues at all. Pros- -Amazing design and slim fit -Top tier components and load speed -Good battery life. -Silent fans -Color options are amazing -Pre-installed drivers and programs for maximum power. Cons- -Wireless AC adapter stopped working one time. -Gets hot, very hot. -Feels a bit delicate (Be very careful with it)

The laptop is not only beautiful, but also slick with a lot of power. Not to mention the keyboard is big and very enjoyable to type on and the screen is absolutely stunning!

This laptop is nice built and has a cool design.I'm in love with the keyboard & its light effects. I gave 4 stars because of the windows that makes this laptop annoying when you're in a hurry and need to access the files. The time it takes to log in it's about 15 minutes..I would preffer Win 7 instead of this one.

This is a great all around laptop, weather a gamer or content creator this laptop is loaded with the hardware to keep up with whatever you throw at it. The 144hz screen is absolutely amazing. Until you've gamed on one of these in person you will not realize the huge advantage or a traditional 60hz monitor. The build quality is above normal, the laptop has a very sturdy feel and little flex. The I/O is also adequate although I do wish there was a SD card slot included. I am very satisfied with this purchase and would definitely recommend this laptop to anyone else looking for a solid gaming/productivity laptop.

With these specs I was not quite sure what to expect for my first gaming style laptop, but I quickly learned that I am so impressed on the quality and performance you get from such I compact package. I will never go back to an average laptop because the performance will not be as comparable as it is to this laptop.

This laptop has great screen. The anti glare screen is really pleasing to the eyes.The battery life has a duration of about 8 hours. It is super fast and easy to carry.

My early reaction to this laptop was a bit off. Basic installs and updates seem to stutter a little more than I would expect but once my set up was complete this machine flies. I can feel the coffee lake processor handle any large amounts of multitasking I ask of it. I only play fps and the screen is just perfect for what I need, along with a max-q 1070. The cooling system is a little audible but performance stays the same. I plan on casual gaming in school and I expect many looks to this great redesign from MSI. This is a new era for gaming laptops and MSI took a huge head start with their latest machine.

This laptop is portable and FAST! The SteelSeries keyboard is fantastic. This machine has impressed me and my friends. I look forward to using it at work and play.

I want to keep this review short, realistically people don;t like to read anything that is really long. To sum everything up. This is the best laptop that I can find in a price range of 2000 bucks. I was looking at razer blade stealth. Same price but have least feature such as ETHERNET CABLE my god man...again SAME PRICES man.. Noted that is a review 9/6/2018. So as far as I can see from the best buy. I could not find any laptop that is better than this one as currant date. anyways great product and highly recommended for gaming people like myself. :) PS: It been working great so far >:D

I've had my GS65 for a few days now, and overall it is just a pleasure to use. The build quality is very decent, and it has a luxurious feel. The only issue I had was with dual-booting Windows and Linux. The Linux default graphics driver HATES the Nvidia driver that comes with this laptop, and refuses to work with it. It took about 8 hours to discover the workaround to get it working, but it wasn't too difficult. If thats your interest as well, this is the information that worked for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/laptops/comments/8fysx2/anyone_got_ubuntu_1804_running_on_the_new/e2o1ued

I bought this laptop for college as I am studying to be an engineer and it has swiftly proven to me within the last week that it can run essentially anything I can throw at it. With the charger plugged in, it can run Fortnite at a consistent 120+ FPS. It runs programs like AutoCad smoother than some desktop computers and it is extremely compatible when working with my Arduino programs. I truly hope this laptop lasts me my entire four years of college and if it is as easily upgradeable as other MSI laptops then it should be a breeze keeping this thing competing with laptops for years ahead.

Very good lightweight gaming laptop with the power to play almost anything on the market. Its sleek design makes it easy to pack it up and take it anywhere.

I was looking for a powerful laptop to serve both as a strong workstation while traveling for work as well as a gaming device to pass idle time in hotel rooms. Because my laptop needed to double as a work machine, it was important to me that it not have the over-the-top gaming look and branding as to not stick out during onsite meetings. The Stealth Thin is light, powerful, and looks great. It also has a very clean, yet modest look (which I prefer over the non-thin model) and the small bezel on the screen is icing on the cake. The laptop does run warm under load but, given that it's a 1070 under the hood, it is definitely acceptable to me. My only gripe would be that the metal chassis feels somewhat conductive and feels like my palm is being mildly shocked when I rest it on the keyboard. I have had similar issues with other metallic MSI laptops, though I don't know if this is a systemic issue or something with my own skin conductivity. Otherwise, it has been a solid purchase.

After compare many laptop model that , this computer got both price point and specification. The new Razer Blade 15 is $400 higher with similar spec ($2.399.99) so I choose this one. It's very thin laptop with powerful CPU and Graphic card. The 144HZ screen is stunning when you play games. Anyway, for this price you have to trade off from M.2 SSD to SSD but it's acceptable since you can upgrade it later. The design is very sleek and nice compare to other huge laptop on the market. Overall, I am very happy with this product. It serve right with both working and gaming.
