The MSI P600-019US won’t wow you with groundbreaking design or win you over with cutting-edge features. In fact, this mainstream notebook wouldn’t stand out from the crowded field of 15.6-inch laptops unless you did what we did: test it. The P600 is an affordable mainstream laptop that delivers very good performance for the price, as well as long battery life. It's otherwise unremarkable, but for buyers on a budget, that may be enough.

While it doesn't have any features that mark it as a business notebook, the $650 MSI P600 is a great value for consumers and a reasonable choice for small businesses that don't require any kind of additional security or support. Companies looking for stronger security and more business features would do better with Lenovo's ThinkPad Edge series, which offers a more comfortable keyboard and touchpad. Regardless, if you want a great 15.6-inch Core i5 value, the MSI P600 is a solid choice.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) HD Graphics: Onboard graphics card that is built in the new Arrandale CPUs (Core i3 / i5 / i7 Dual Cores). Depending on the model and Turbo Boost, the GMA HD is clocked between 166 and 766 MHz.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

450M: Should be similar to the Core i5-520M but without AES functions.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


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.

2.8 kg:

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.


MSI: Micro-Star International (MSI) was founded in 1986 in Taiwan. MSI is especially known as a manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards for PCs, but also offers computer accessories, complete systems, motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, desktop PCs, monitors and other components. However, the Microstar brand name in Germany belongs to the Medion company. MSI is known for its gaming products and has developed a wide range of gaming laptops and desktop PCs. The company is also active in workstations, servers and industrial automation. MSI has offices in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia.


71.67%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
