Reviews for the MSI Creator Z17 HX Studio A13VGT

If the upgradability issue doesn’t bother you, then I can highly recommend the MSI Creator Z17HX for creative workflows. It’s built like a tank, it’s surprisingly fast for its size, and it features one of the best out-of-the-box color-accurate displays and color-management systems we’ve ever tested. For many creative professionals, that covers everything they need from their work laptop. But if upgradability is a priority, if you’re fine with calibrating your own display, and/or the $3,600 price tag is just too rich for your blood, there are at least three excellent alternatives, including MSI’s own Z16HX Studio, that are worth a closer look.

You can either manually enable the battery-saver mode or set it to automatically kick in when your laptop's power reaches a certain percentage (20% by default). Letting you manually enable the battery-saver mode is a great option for extending battery life when a wall outlet isn't available for charging, like on flights to events or on the floor at conventions. By tweaking the power settings, I was able to squeeze about 6 hours out of the battery. All of this power and performance comes at a cost. The MSI Creator Z17 HX Studio will set you back about $3,599. But with premium-grade components and plenty of room for user upgrades later on, it's a worthwhile investment for established content creators and creative professionals looking to upgrade their work rig.

There’s a lot to like about the Creator Z17 HX Studio. It’s well-built, nicely sized for a 17-inch laptop, and it provides solid performance for creators and gamers. But its display is just a bit less colorful than the most demanding creators want to see, and its RTX 4070 GPU can’t keep up with some of the faster machines available. Even so, it’s a competitive laptop at its $3,60o price, and it will satisfy most people with its performance and display quality. I’ll give it a recommendation, but suggest you look closely at the competition before pulling the trigger.

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
