Reviews for the MSI Modern 14 A10M-600XES

MSI Modern 14 review – thin and light ultrabook from the company that specializes in gaming machinery
Source: Laptop Media English
Indeed the MSI Modern 14 is a great ultrabook. It is light, thin, and definitely feels premium – something its price doesn’t really reflect on, which is good. Sadly, the performance is not on par with other productive ultrabooks, but what matters more in this case, is that the laptop remains quiet and relatively cool at all times.

Above all, this display size is used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles. For all three types, this size is quite large. The biggest variety of subnotebooks is represented with this size.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.
