Reviews for the MSI GE62 7RE Apache Pro - 7RE-088

80% MSI GE62 7RE Apache Pro laptop review: Well-managed thermals make for a decent mid-ranger
Source: Tech2 English Archive.org version
This MSI device is in a very competitive spot in the market. A number of gaming devices from HP, Lenovo, Dell (Alienware) and Asus are slugging it out in this space. These devices offer similar specifications at a similar price, and picking between them isn’t as easy as glancing at a spec sheet.

The MSI GE62 7RE Apache Pro is a great choice for those looking for an affordable gaming laptop that can perform as good as the desktop GTX 1050 Ti GPU. The laptop performs pretty well for 1080p gaming. The included M.2 SSD is definitely fast, although we hope that MSI offers a bigger SSD option.

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.
