Reviews for the MSI Creator Z16 HX Studio B13VFT

MSI Creator Z16 HX Studio (A13V) review – great device for content creation
Source: Laptop Media English
The MSI Creator Z16 HX Studio (A13V) is a 16″ device that offers premium build quality and powerful hardware. The vapor chamber cooling is doing its job well. Despite the 19mm profile, the CPU clocks and power limits under heavy loads are very high. The GPU can also sustain stable 90W which is nice to see. Interestingly, the two fans aren’t as loud as a jet fighter even while benchmarking the processor with Cinebench R24. During gaming, the noise is lower which is good. By the way, the fans are turned off when the laptop is in an idle state. The optional 1600p 165Hz MiniLED display (AUO B160QAN02.K (AUODB95)) boasts 100% sRGB and 96% DCP-P3 color coverage. This combined with the snappy and well-cooler hardware transforms the device into a very capable laptop for content creation. The only downside of the panel is the PWM usage. The I/O isn’t full of ports but the selection is modern with its Thunderbolt 4 connector and SD Express Card Reader.

16.00":

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.
