Reviews for the MSI Prestige 13 AI Evo

86.6% MSI Prestige 13 AI Evo laptop review - Core Ultra 7 and OLED weighing under 1 kg | Notebookcheck
MSI's Prestige 13 AI Evo is an extremely compact and lightweight subnotebook featuring good connectivity options, an OLED panel and a Meteor Lake processor. When it comes to its performance, however, you may have to make a few compromises—plus, the laptop's fan has its work cut out for it.
One of the best ultraportable laptops I've tested this year isn't by Asus or Lenovo
Source: Zdnet.com English
Prices for the MSI Prestige 13 AI Evo start at $1,399 right now while it's on sale on Amazon. As I said earlier, it is a little expensive, but well worth the investment. The top-notch Intel Core Ultra 7-258V processor, OLED display, and lightweight design work together with a lightweight form factor to make this laptop one of my favorites of the year.

Forget MacBook Air: This Windows alternative is just as lightweight and full of features
Source: Zdnet.com English
All that said, I actually recommend the MSI Prestige 13 AI Evo laptop, particularly for creative professionals looking for a lightweight, decently-priced device to carry around to and from work. Even if you're not creatively minded, this is still a great machine to have. For the smaller, 13-inch size that I tested, you can buy the Intel Core Ultra i5 version of the Prestige 13 laptop from Newegg for $1,049. If you want the big brother model, you can buy the Intel Core Ultra i7 rendition of the Prestige 13 off Best Buy for $1,299. It also comes equipped with 32GB of RAM and a full terabyte of storage, which at that price, is well worth it.

Intel Arc 8-Core: Integrated graphics adapter based on the Xe LPG architecture (similar to the dedicated Arc GPUs, but with a focus on efficiency). Provides all 8 Xe cores (128 Xe vector engines) and 8 ray tracing units.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

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.


86.4%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
