Customers are saying

Customers find value in the Katana 15's powerful performance and impressive graphics capabilities, frequently praising its ability to handle demanding games smoothly. While some users noted the fan noise during intense use and shorter battery life compared to other laptops, many appreciate the overall value considering its price point. The laptop's RAM is also a plus, with some users upgrading it for even better performance. However, the build quality is perceived by some as less premium than higher-priced competitors.

    Best value for the price. The MSI laptop is really loaded with NPU, GPU and Nvidia RTX 4070 GPU. Very powerful for playing games but can be used for other applications as well. Light weight and easy to configure.

    I needed a new laptop for work training, and just wasnt happen with how most laptops these days feel flimsy. This laptop was perfect for what i needed. My only dislike is a keyboard LED lighting cant be assigned to individual keys.
