    Track pad very glitchy. Laptop overheats and the fan is so loud you can have the laptop at max volume and still not hear.

    Enjoy playing games on this laptop! Decently quiet fans for a gaming laptop, and surprisingly powerful: handles Dreamlight Valley and The Sims 4 wonderfully. Feels sturdy; heavy but strong.

    Laptop works great. It was an open box item but i was expecting to, at least, be in a generic box. It was just the laptop and power cord.

    Great laptop and super nice IPS screen that is very clear and worth it for the cost. Gaming on this laptop is very nice, will play most games depending on the intensity of the game but definitely a great buy.

    Just a few words about this gaming computer; our son wanted a dedicated laptop for gaming and after a visit to our local Best Buy store we were convinced that this MSI was the way to go. So far no regrets.

    Great deal on open box, it does get hit to the touch when using for long periods of time. If you use a lapdesk it would work great.

    Love this computer. Wasn’t sure if I could handle the keyboard being so far back from most laptops I’ve used in the past but it’s great! Love that it’s so sleek! Got it for photography

    A great laptop for general gaming, but it has an issue with overheating without an external cooling mat of some sort.

    Got this laptop for my son for college. Excellent performace that blows away his current PC. The battery doesn't last too long, but most laptops don't so that's not really a major problem. Has plenty of power for when he will be using engineering software.

    Can’t complain so far! Our kids has it and she’s enjoying all the features. Just a minor hiccups with the loud sounds whenever the fan start working!
