Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love this PC. If there was a 4.5 stars I would give it though. Not perfect. I am a full time college student and often times I have to take my pc on the go so this laptop is super light and a powerful, a stud in that regards. It can run most games on higher settings however you might need boosted fans while being plugged in for optimal performance. It is not as good as the razor blade 16 and I managed to get this pc for 1700 dollars at Best Buy so I got a little of a reduction. It does come with the RTX 4070 so it does the job it will give you good performance but not breathtaking performance like you get from a graphics card like 3080 or better or 4080 or better. The battery is good and will last 2.5-3.5 hours if gaming and 4-5 hours if you are doing lighter tasks.

3 stars because of how hot this thing runs under load, the quality of the keyboard and the overall build quality. First, the fans are NOISY and SHRILL! I understand most laptops, especially with this thin of a profile and the latest hardware may have some fan noise related to heat dispersion but this is something to warn buyers about! Second, the steel series keyboard while having that "Premium" feel with the customization options of the RGB zones also leaves something missing with that sense of hope surrounding longevity with something in this price range. I felt like if I just held a key down too long or pressed too hard, it wouldn't work anymore. Thirdly, the build quality. "Stealth" is implied here and you do get that, however your trade off is the quality of the build materials. The lid feels almost not pliant enough, one wrong move and bye bye panel. The charging port is on the side which to modern users of a "Creative/Studio/Gaming" machine is almost appalling. Despite these few negative qualities the laptop does perform and you can get about 100fps in some AAA titles at max resolution on this thing. It's also Light coming in at about 4.5 - 4.6 lbs so you could easily travel with this in a backpack for a small powerhouse on the go! Also, the speakers are quite nice for listening, streaming, editing or gaming! Just beware of temps! :D and with MOST laptops, keep it plugged in!

If this laptop is in your price range, then I highly recommend picking this one. It has price to performance going for it. The display is of much higher quality than other competitors. The Steele Series keyboard and onboard audio system are perfect (Great travel in the keys, and the audio quality is the best Ive heard in a laptop). I haven’t played too many games on it yet, but the ones I have the RTX 4970 cranked through without a hickup. So far Skull and Bones looked absolutely phenomenal, and PALS the beta ran with no hickups and looked visually stunning. I just started playing Hogwarts Legacy and this is so far the best experience on this laptop. So under load the top of the chasis on this laptop gets a bit hot, burn the tips of your fingers hot if you use the top keys too much, but while gaming it didn’t really bug me too much. There is relatively little to no fan noise on this laptop, I’m hoing to check out the fan curve on here and see if I can bump the speed up a bit and make it run a little cooler, internal temperatures under load hang around 60-70c on GPU. I hope this review helps in your decision, I just wanted to post my opinion so that you had another viewpoint of this machine. If you are a casual gamer after work like me then this might be a perfect fit for you.

Runs all my games very well without nearly no issues due to processing speed or ability. Fans seem to work well according to the monitoring Microsoft app. Clarity of picture is really good as well. One negative: The buttons and case on the upper portions of the laptop (nearest screen) get quite hot to the touch, but the bottom side of the case is not nearly as hot which is nice a I have had the opposite. Recommend getting a usb-c to standard usb converter with multiple ports if you rely on regular usb connections. Only has one standard usb slot. I have not tested the battery life capabilities, always plugged in.

Very fast, great graphs, easy to use, great for gaming or any other use though it does heat up fast and battery does not last too long

Good design, good performance. Over all, I never regreted to buy this laptop. And I like the weight of computer.

I bought this laptop for both college and gaming. I LOVE THIS LAPTOP! I'm using it right now to type this review! The 4070 GPU makes this laptop perfect for gaming. The laptop is perfect for productivity, or high end work (such as Fusion 360), or if you'd like to do some mid range-low high end gaming. The only real complaint I have are the keys. They can easily fall out and are a pain to reinstall.

Great starter gaming laptop. No lags efficient enough for streaming

I have owned this laptop for a year now and it is a beast. Portable PC gaming and music production is easy. Love this laptop. Beautiful display, seamless streaming to a secondary monitor. Rgb spiderman font keyboard is awesome looking.

Managed to grab this on sale and one of the best purchases I’ve made. I got this just as my old laptop was starting to struggle and this new laptop has been perfect and an improvement in every was. I see this new computer lasting me a very long time and honestly recommend this laptop, especially on sale.

Very sturdy, fast and nice large screen. Would recommend this item to others. I use it strictly for business.

Beautiful, Slick, fast, good value. Wish it had another standard usb and that the numeric pad were a little bigger to match the rest of the keys.

It's not a bad buy and has been able to keep up with gaming and work. Bought for school and to appease the gaming side. Ran Apex, COD, and Starfield with no issues. Don't regret it. Its aesthetically pleasing. Some may not be fond of the slim screen, the steel series concept of it makes it a bit more durable. Its a laptop none the less though so things will have its fragile attributes. Meaning dont toss it out of a 5 story window expecting things to be okay.

A great notebook for those who want to have gaming equipment and need portability. I use it for gaming and traveling, so it meets my performance and portability needs.

The MSI laptop is able to handle so much power similar to my desktop. I was able to crank it up to high graphics while playing Baldur’s Gate 3. Like any laptop, it does get hot and the fans can be heard, but I haven’t had much issues with it overheating where it shuts down. I would highly recommend this laptop to anyone that wants to do some nice gaming on the go.

Great graphics and loving the keyboard. Also very lightweight and great for portable use.

Beautiful laptop! Want to game out? Worth the money! Runs any game with no issues. Call of duty MW3, GTA 5, Apex Legends. I’m pulling 140fps with every game I’m playing with settings being on high or ultra. Worth the money

I love this gaming laptop especially at this discounted price. I can run all games at the highest settings and use photoshop and lightroom classic without any problems. The only thing that would make this laptop even better is if it had a 4k screen. Overall for this discounted price i highly recommend it!

This laptop is excellent for gaming. Really great value for what you get, in a mobile option. I can game on trips or even at work (don’t tell anyone). If you are looking for a laptop for gaming, among other things, I would definitely recommend this one.

This is the perfect laptop. Kyle R. suggested it to me and after maniacally researching all the laptops on the market, this is the one. It was the one this whole time
