Reviews for the MSI GS66 10SF-067 Stealth

Not many displays feature calibration software embedded into their Gamer-centric apps. And we really appreciate it. This, combined with the capable hardware that spans to Core i9-10980HK, and RTX 2080 Super Max-Q, and that can fit 64GB of DDR4 memory and two M.2 drives are something that not only gamers will like. Content creators, 3D designers, and architects might find using this machine a piece of cake.

The GS66 Stealth that we tested is a fast gaming laptop, and it’s priced competitively to Razer’s Blade 15 — even undercutting its most similar configuration when it comes to packing in a faster refresh rate display, a larger battery, and more RAM. It’s not a bad deal on the lower-end configurations either, keeping appealing features like a Thunderbolt 3 port and a 144Hz refresh rate display in its most affordable $1,499 model. Despite a few nagging design issues, the foundation is more sound and powerful than ever. MSI’s design is the clear winner compared to the plentiful amount of all-plastic gaming laptops in each configuration’s price range. For now, Razer is still the standard to beat, but MSI is getting awfully close.

For the most part, the MSI GS66 Stealth is a good laptop that should meet the design, ergonomics, performance, and battery life expectations of its potential buyers, but it's also affected by small imperfections and quirks. Many of those concern the system's performance and thermals in demanding loads, that's why I'd primarily look into the lower-tier i7 + RTX 2060/2070 configurations of this laptop, as versatile a work/school computer with only secondary gaming abilities. We're getting in-depth in the lengthy review down below.

The GS66 is a solid follow-up to MSI’s groundbreaking GS65 Stealth Thin. It’s more powerful in every way, it has a blazing fast 300Hz screen and it even has a decent keyboard and touchpad. But it’s heavier than before, and it doesn’t stand out nearly as much from the gaming laptop competition. Still, it’s a decent option if you’re looking for a premium gaming notebook without paying Razer prices.

MSI's GS66 Stealth is a solid followup to the GS65, one of our favorite gaming laptops. The new model packs Nvidia RTX graphics and Intel's new 10th gen chips in a sleek black chassis. But while there's nothing wrong with the GS66, it faces a much more competitive field. Razer's offerings cost more, but come in sleeker, more lightweight designs, and Asus's Zephyrus G14 is nearly as fast but cheaper, lighter, and with vastly superior battery life. We like the GS66, but these days, gaming laptops are so good it's worth shopping around.

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.
