Not a bad purchase, worth the money.

The dimensions and cost of this laptop are its primary selling points. To obtain these capabilities, though, I paid a high price. There are certain drawbacks to the gadget, however this is one instance when you get "top for your money." You'll need to shell out another $10,000–$15,000 and try your luck with a different model if you want a more powerful graphics card, longer battery life, or other features like three-color keyboard backlighting or a better calibrated screen. There was no cheaper choice for a laptop with a discrete graphics card when I got this one for $7,090. There will be no issues with rolling windows. There isn't a more cost-effective alternative that offers a comparable set of features. If you need a machine that can print and run major toys (although on low graphics in certain titles), for a reasonably modest price, this is your choice. However, graphic artists and programmers should look elsewhere, as the screen and battery are fairly terrible.

Pros
  • 1) Price. This is one of the cheapest laptops with a discrete graphics card that is sold without an operating system. There is a cost, though, as can be seen in the limitations section. 2) Set up new machinery. The MSI GF63 is an affordable gaming laptop with respectable specs for its price range. While its performance isn't going to blow your mind, there are plenty of videos on YouTube that put laptops through their paces in a variety of serious games, and they all come out fairly well. My understanding is that the laptop can handle running tanks at ultra settings, but I have no use for that kind of performance. Thirdly, the arrangement of RAM. Currently, 16 GB of RAM (8 GB in each slot) is sufficient for most non-gaming and gaming-related work on this model. Therefore, additional RAM is not required. We are not restricted to a 512 GB SSD, as the manufacturer has left the option of permanent memory expansion open via the second slot. 4) A smooth and stress-free key ride. The printing process is relaxing and easy on the eyes. Five) Mass. This laptop's lightweight and compact design are selling points (thus the moniker "thin"). It's easy to carry about the city because of how light it is (less than 2 kg). However, the sacrifices made to attain compact proportions mean that even the benefits may not be enough to sway some customers. 6) The kit includes the manufacturer's bare-bones list of required drivers; the most important thing is to keep the partition containing the driver archive intact during the Windows installation process. There's no need to rush off to the MSI support page to hunt for the appropriate drivers to install. Nice, but only a little. 7). Two-channel audio. I realize that not everyone will agree with me, but I find stereo to be much preferable to mono.
Cons
  • 1) TGP. The laptop's price is much lower than that of competing RTX 3050 laptops since the graphics card's power consumption was reduced from 80W to 40W. Hence, Marky Corps. The laptop's cover is designed to properly collect fingerprints, both on the lid and next to the touchpad, right where your palms naturally rest when you type. Three) Weird keyboard design. Because the keys on a laptop are larger because the numlock block is absent, people who are used to using a standard desktop keyboard sometimes make typos while moving to a laptop. 4) One thing that bothers me about many laptops in Msi's GF series is that the Fn key is the sole way to change the brightness of the screen, the key backlight, or the volume. I don't see why they couldn't be two independent keys, as on other computers. You'll just have to live with the fact that the fn button won't stay on in the default BIOS. Fifth, a means of cooling the interior. Many people have pointed out that the laptop's single fan is insufficient for the hardware within. The laptop overheats quickly while under stress because of this and a tiny diffuser between the table and the bottom of the device. I only tried tanks at medium settings, but even then the WASD region became substantially hotter than 60 degrees. It's also important to remember that the charging cable can get quite hot if it's plugged into an outlet that's behind the laptop and prevents the air from circulating. 6) Independence. The maximum time the laptop can be used without being plugged in and connected to the Internet is two to three hours when energy saving features are enabled. The quality of the built-in speakers is only so-so.

Some pros: For a wide range of tasks. Windows is installed, although linux will still be nearby. Has some cons: The price is too big, but it's more because of the exchange rate.
