The MSI Creator 15 blends the right features to earn our nod in the creative category. These include a sleek, stylish-yet-professional design; an eight-core Intel Core i7 processor, Nvidia RTX 2070 graphics card; a vivid, high-res (4K) display, a standard IR camera, fingerprint reader; Wi-Fi 6; and nearly 10 hours of battery life. That’s an outstanding resume for any creative notebook. Though it is held back by just one USB Type-A port, and its hot-running chassis, that keep it from earning our Editors’ Choice award, but those downsides can easily be overlooked. All said, the Creator 15 is a superior performer than both the Asus ProArt StudioBook 15 and the Razer Blaze 15 Base Edition for around the same or less money. Mind the heat, but seriously put the MSI Creator 15 A10SFS-287 on the short list.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Super Max-Q: High-End laptop graphics card based on the TU104 chip with 2,560 shaders. Runs at reduced clock speeds compared to a laptop RTX 2070 Super to achieve a much lower power consumption. The TGP is specified at 80 Watts and therefore significantly lower than the RTX 2070 Super Mobile (115 Watt).

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
