    4 Stars
    A powerful laptop, lightweight laptop that perfectly encompasses productivity with leisure activity.
    We were originally eyeing some pricier laptops but shot for the MSI GS65 after seeing some favorable reviews across the web. We are not disappointed.Pros:- The performance: It's simply a monster laptop. It has no problems running CPU heavy programs like Photoshop and Adobe Premier. It makes productivity apps like Excel and Onenote run without a flicker of disturbance and will run every game I have on high settings -- most on ultra, even. I sometimes have as many as four intensive programs open, and it handles it with pure finesse.- The weight: It's extremely lightweight for how powerful it is. I can easily take this laptop with me wherever I go. Clocking in at 4.14 pounds, it's a simple move for any distance. I don't see this weight being an issue for most people.- The design: Unlike your typical gaming computer, the Gs65 sports a sleek and professional design. The programmable keyboard allows for both a creative design for your home, and a simple business oriented design for work. No matter where you use this laptop, it will be appropriate. Mini-con: The dragon logo may have a less than professional “feel”, but if it’s truly an issue — it’s nothing a sticker can’t solve. It also has a very thin display, without a ton of black space (minus the bottom which has about an inch?), so that makes for quite an appealing look.Cons:- The placement of certain ports: Most ports are in perfectly fine places, but the HDMI and charging port are located towards the center of the right side of the laptop. This may not be a universal issue for some, but for me it causes some disturbance to my setup. If these ports were pushed to the end (near the screen) I'd be able to comfortably fit everything on my desk.- The noise and heat: This is not uncommon for gaming laptops, and I happen to believe this laptop handles this issue decently. The only reason I'm placing this as a con is because I've noticed the MSI GS65 may be more susceptable to noise issues without much intensity. I've run some simpler programs that were met with loud-ish cooling efforts, but overall it's not a big deal for me personally. Heat wise, the laptop is almost always a little warm -- and after a prolonged period it can become scolding. Again, not uncommon.- The speaker quality: This is my biggest con. I listen to music 95% of the time I'm using my laptop, and the speaker quality is pretty abysmal. The laptop does not have a great max voume either, so if you do plan on getting this machine, do not expect great things in that department. I'd invest in some decent speakers or headphones if you are an avid listener.Side notes:- The bloatware: MSI sure does have a lot of programs to accompany your machine. I don't know enough about all of them to put them as a pro or con, but I appreciate the effort to add some helpful features.- The battery life: I think it's pretty good for a gaming laptop, but it's not great.- The OS: Never been a fan of windows 10, but that can change :)Thanks for reading! Hope this helps.
