Pros and cons

According to our laptop expert

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 video card is an entry-level card for VR and is suitable for gaming at ultra settings.
This gaming laptop is just 1.79cm thick, so it fits in your bag more easily than comparable laptops.
You can set the backlight on the RGB keyboard according to your personal preferences, so you can also see what you're doing in the dark.
There's no optical drive, so you can't play games on DVD or Blu-ray.

Review is 9,2 out of 10.

Highly recommended!

144 Hertz display
Quiet
Lightweight
Fast fingerprints

This is by far the best (gaming) laptop I've ever owned. The MSI GS65 Stealth Thin is very fast thanks to the NVIDIA GTX 1060 and it is also a pleasure to look at thanks to the beautiful design and good display. Fingerprints are quickly noticeable on the laptop, but a cloth is included so this is not really a problem. This is highly recommended, partly because of its excellent price-quality ratio. There are few to no other laptops with these capacities for the same price.

Review is 9,2 out of 10.

Small, light and very powerful.

A powerful laptop that's just 1.8cm thick and weighs just 1.8kg
well-lit keys and a large screen (small bezel)
Aluminum housing
Sound through speakers is very poor

A manufacturer of gaming laptops that also offers a state-of-the-art, super-fast "standard" laptop for home or office use, with a very powerful graphics card and all this in an ultra-thin and light housing. In short: great!

Fantastic laptop for gaming and office

Thin
Great picture
Good battery
Fingerprints

Personally, I love the laptop. He fulfills his purposes perfectly. The laptop is very powerful and haven't had any problems with gaming yet.

The laptop also looks great, but leaves you with smudges and fingerprints rather easily. Personally, this doesn't bother me and you get a cloth that doubles as a keyguard.

It comes standard with an MSI control center in which you can fully adapt the laptop to your needs. The laptop fans under the PC can be loud when running heavier processes. The laptop monitors itself and thus automatically increases the fan speed (you can easily turn this off). Personally, I don't suffer from this, I only use it publicly for school and I haven't had any audible nuisance yet. When you are gaming, the laptop is audible to people around you and they lose its “stealth”. During gaming I always have a headset on and I do not experience this myself.

The bottom of the laptop can get warm when you game. I already had a laptop support that I use at all times and would also recommend signing up if you don't have one. (and a small pillow or a book could also help).

As a final note is the keyboard, the lighting is per Key and therefore super customizable and also has several modes ready to use. The keyboard does not have a numpad and so one has to use the shift Key every time, I don't mind this so much but this can be a turn off for some.
