70% MSI Crosshair 16 HX D14V (2024) Review
Source: Trusted Reviews
The MSI Crosshair 16 HX D14V (2024) is a solid, if quite expensive gaming laptop. Its 14700HX and RTX 4060 power core offer decent 1080p and 1440p, although feel underpowered relative to the fantastic 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz panel. The ports here are good, as is battery life, although you can get a more powerful package for a similar price. For instance, the HP Omen 17 (2024) ups the screen size by an inch and utilises an RTX 4070 while having the same asking price, although makes a sacrifice by offering a Full HD panel and while the Gigabyte Aorus 17H pushes further towards the £2000 mark, it offers an RTX 4080 and beefier performance.

16.00:

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.
