Fast and much-needed 32GB of RAM.

I bought an Asus Flip 13 with 16GB of RAM as I needed a 2-in-1 for my workflow and I will never buy a Dell as it's the only 32GB version is what I found up until posting. Well, of course, ASUS didn't last through with its 16GB. Remember that ASUS OLED monitor is much better than this MSI monitor. But I've done some real world testing with both as I'm stuck with ASUS right now as I couldn't get it back, but everything is faster with MSI. Apps load about 30% faster. Photoshop's task is much faster, for example I uploaded a 5GB file to edit a car wrap. At boot the MSI was over 3 minutes faster, I scaled the file from 150dpi to 600dpi and the MSI worked very well even compared to my much faster desktop and the ASUS couldn't get the job done due to RAM. If you are a pro then this is the machine for you. I am very surprised by its performance for this size. It's very light, fast enough for single-threaded operations, and with extra RAM, it can actually get the job done. However, this is a serious problem. Wi-Fi this machine sucks. I had to put the router in the room so there was a good signal. The ASUS signal can literally reach 5 times further. I don't know why, but unless you're near your router, you're going to have a hard time. It gets hotter than ASUS but also faster so I'm guessing MSI has less throttling than ASUS since they have the same specs minus RAM. Keep in mind. This is just the first day. So if anything changes I will update my review.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
