Helped my uncle with needing a small compact computer for work purposes to run special applications. His programs also required windows pro.
Computer was on sale and a good deal for the specs.

I bought this for everyday and business use. I liked how fast it was, very smooth, very light. The only thing is the webcam. Instead of being at the top, it is at the bottom. This makes it very awkward when doing Zoom calls, etc...you look weird because it always seem like you are not even looking at the camera.

The camera is in a weird position below the screen. It makes me look weird when i'm on video - which is a lot these days! Also, the keyboard uses a weird font so the L looks like an I - which is hard for my kid to use as she is learning to type. And lastly, I really wish I had gotten a touch screen. I can't believe that for $800, this computer doesn't have a touch screen!

Great specs for the price when U bought it $250 off the sticker price. Only complaint is that the trackpad mouse keys are subpar.

Great price! Slim, light weight, fast. The camera is at the bottom of the screen rather than the top which makes the angle a bit off when doing zoom meetings. It looks like you are looking up. Not a huge issue but that’s the reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

The MSI A14 laptop is a very nice laptop for the sale price that I got. It has a back light keyboard and pretty good specs for a thin metal laptop around $550.

Bought it for my partner but had to return it because the webcam is on the bottom of the screen instead of the top. Because of this odd design, if the screen is facing straight forward, the bottom of the screen is cut off by the site of your keyboard. And if you tilt it up to crop the keyboard out, it's awkwardly looking up your nose or at your forehead. Otherwise the computer itself was fast and easy to use.
