This laptop has a QWERTY keyboard, which is different from a Belgian AZERTY keyboard. The Q and A keys are reversed on a QWERTY keyboard. The same goes for the W and Z keys. QWERTY keyboards also don't have keys for letters with accents. That's why you should only choose a QWERTY keyboard if you're used to it.

According to our laptop expert
Play demanding games in 4K with DLSS enabled thanks to the RTX 5080 video card, the Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, and the 32GB RAM.
On the 4K screen with DisplayHDR 1000 support, you can see much more detail, as well as lifelike colors and shadows.
Set your favorite color on the RGB backlit keyboard, so you can keep gaming in style when it's dark.
We recommend an RTX 5090 video card for running the heaviest graphics suites or large games in 4K ultra settings.
The large 18-inch size and the 3.6kg weight make this laptop less easy to carry in your backpack or laptop bag.
With the 18-inch MSI Raider 18 Max HX A2WI-1051NL gaming laptop, you can enjoy sharp images and plenty of screen space while gaming. Thanks to the Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, 32GB DDR5 RAM, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 video card, you can play demanding games and use programs for streaming or content creation. The processor's NPU and AI functions automatically match the frame rate and resolution for a smooth gaming experience. You can install lots of large games and other files on the 2TB SSD. The large 18-inch 4K screen with a 120-hertz refresh rate shows sharp details and displays fast action smoothly. Thanks to the DisplayHDR 1000 support, you can see many more details and lifelike colors and shadows. The MSI Raider has Cooler Boost Trinity technology with extra powerful cooling, so you can keep gaming without problems even in the heat of battle. The per-key RGB-backlit keyboard lets you give each key its own color, so your laptop stands out even more while gaming.
Note
