Reviews for the MSI Alpha 17 C7VF

MSI Alpha 17 2023 Hands-On: Future Proof with WiFi 7
Source: Unbox English
WiFi 7-powered devices are expected to arrive later this year, and the 2023 Alpha 17 is one of the first devices that will support it. WiFi 7 routers are still rare (and not yet available in the market), but having laptops like the 2023 Alpha 17 ensures that you are future-proof and ready once there is wider WiFi 7 support. The 2023 Alpha 17 starts at $1849 for the RTX 4060 model, which translates to around Php 104,000 when converted. There’s no word yet if MSI plans to bring this version of the Alpha 17 to the Philippines.

17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
