Pros & Cons
Pros
This is much lighter and has a pretty subtle chassis which is exactly what i wanted. The rgb on the laptop keyboard can be changed through msi center. I keep the laptop docked on a station so shouldn't really be an issue.
The screen is only 1080p but for a 15 inch screen it’s not too bad at all. Gaming performance is really good and you can turn up the graphics setting and still get high frame rates in aaa games. If it isn't connected directly to wall power, all the fu... Read More
I received mounting bracket for ssd within a week of contacting msi customer support. Ram is good (16gb), i plan to upgrade to 32gb soon when the bracket arrives and i am installing the second ssd. Only thing i want to do is upgrade ram and storage.
Highlights
Quality
I'm very happy with the purchase and i feel like i got a laptop that is worth more than i paid for.
I am very happy with that in a bargain gaming laptop.
I initially purchased with the intention of having something compact to take with me to school/work, but that isn't where the msi shines.
Price
I find this laptop a perfect balance between performance and price.
Guys whatever the benchmark says this is a beast for such a low cost
Shipping
It came with fast shipping, was in the original manufacture sealed packaging, and hardware was as advertised.
The laptop works great and is fast and looks good.
Packaging/appearance
Solid laptop right out of the box.
Competitiveness
This thing is a beast and feels faster then my desktop (ryzen 9 rtx 2080 super).
If it’s your first pc it’ll probably be confusing.
Rtx 3060 says 105w in nvidia control panel, which has been upgraded from 85w from previous katana models.

Would recommend it for anyone planning on using it while plugged the gpu and cpu combinations are quite solid for gaming the keyboard feels great and its rgb can be customized via mystic lights in msi center had to reinstall it for the feature to start working the screen is somewhat okay when used in dark to slightly bright environments an additional nvme can be installed though the laptop has a design flaw where there is no spot where to screw the second nvme in place but the most glaring issue in my opinion is the battery life i was surprised to see that it couldnt sustain a 2 hour long netflix movie even when starting from a full charge

Since they dont price match i was suppose to order another one for the cheaper price and return the first order
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I guess i got lucky because i got an email a couple hours later saying the original order was successfully cancelled

That is most likely why its price point is less than some other laptops with higher end resolutions
