Reviews for the MSI GE66 Raider 10SF

80% MSI GE66 Raider gaming laptop review: top-notch performance
Source: 91mobiles English
The MSI GE66 Raider does make for a very tempting deal at Rs 1,94,990, which is the current price of the device on Flipkart. In the coming months, the price is bound to fall even more, but the value it can offer via its performance should be there for much longer. The laptop packs in some of the best hardware you can find in the segment right now, although the 2TB version that I have will cost you slightly more. Even so, 1TB of storage should suffice for most requirements, and there is always the option of using external SSDs. Regardless, the 240Hz refresh rate, excellent display, top-notch GPU, extensive keyboard backlighting, and an overall clean design aesthetic make the GE66 Raider a very good deal.

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.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
