I would love to get a laptop like that specifically for when I am in hospital which unfortunately is quite a lot at the moment as I am going through cancer treatment or a laptop would be great for the days I am stuck in bed and not feeling well.

The 4050 is probably the best -50 series card they've released so far. This card handles basically every game out there at 1080p without much trouble and is also a lot more power efficient than previous generations.

I'm from Nicaragua and I bought this thing in Microcenter like 3 weeks ago and I can't wait longer to start using that beast. It would have been great if you guys talked a little bit more about the specs and test it in more games, but still an amazing video.
I really like when Microcenter sponsors a video. I have always ordered things from them and they are very helpful every time.

The Dell XPS 15 runs incredibly well with the 4050. I will be excited to try out the new Dell XPS 16 with the 4050 in the future
I upgraded from a gtx 970 in my lenovo to an msi gf63 4050, it's a good bang for your buck.
Im checking the MicroCenter link while watching this video. There is no shipping for this laptop. For me it would be 1200 miles round trip to the closets MicroCenter. The gas, meals, time and hotel would negate any savings. Amazon has it at $1,299.00. No other seller was close. You guys should have removed the bottom cover and showed the internals. Other then that another stellar video.
If i ever find one used on facebook market or something decently priced maybe but for now rocking the desktop
I got this laptop and I've been loving it. I have been wanting to upgrade the ram though, could y'all tell me what kind of ram sticks I need for it?
hey there im wondering at what degree is considered a bad temperature and when is so bad that can harm the notebook?
I have a lenove loq with a 4050 and it only needed a ram upgrade and its a beast for modern games
How did you set Afterburner up with the integrated graphics?

...okay, but how well does it run games like stellaris, hearts of iron 4, and rimworld?
What's the build quality?
Thx guys for making this video. Ive bought the Lenovo Legion i5 8th gen , a while ago now. It works kinda good i guess,but im still looking for that extra nudge. Promoting this laptop made me think about looking into this brand. Thx for that. The only thing im kinda afraid of.. i live in the eu...( Netherlands to be exact) . So ,.. im kinda do need some thinking. Anyway,thx and keep doing your magic guys. And yes, including everyone involved in this video. 🫶🏼😉👊🏼!! Cheers , Patrick Stoute
You spent more time talking about the stickers than the actual build quality and screen of the laptop lol. What makes this laptop not great for the $, is the terrible build quality and a bad screen with low brightness, weak color gamut, and slow response times. You also get a USB-A 2.0 port and the USB-C doesn't do display port, so you can only do HDMI. I also wouldn't trust the hinges on this laptop lasting considering past budget MSI laptops have always had hinge issues. A lenovo Ideapad, Dell G15, or Asus TUF are all better options for budget tier 4050 laptops or last gen stuff. I've seen 3060 laptops with bigger batteries, much better screens and build quality, better ports,etc. in the US go for as low as $850-$900.
