Reviews for the MSI Prestige 14 AI Evo C1MG
Source: It Pro
Looking at some popular retail sites you can pick up the Core Ultra 5 model of the Prestige 14 AI EV for £999 inc VAT including a £100 discount and the Core Ultra 7 model for £1,049 inc VAT including a £250 discount. At present the Core Ultra 9 models seem only to be available in the USA. Given those prices you have to get seriously picky to criticize the new Prestige Evo 14 AI because it has all the basics very well covered. The bright 144Hz display is more than you have any right to expect at this price as is the standard 1TB SSD and cutting-edge wireless card while the efficient but potent CPU and high-capacity battery means you won't be forever hunting for a power point.

The strength of the MSI Prestige 14 EVO C1M is that it gives you good performance and a strong set of features for less money than most rivals. Some, like the Dell XPS 14 or Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Pro 360, can offer you more style, better specs or a superior OLED or AMOLED screen, but they’ll cost you a good £500 more. Only a few, like the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, can promise similar specs and EVO certification at a similar price. Put it all together, and there’s a lot here for business buyers, particularly with the forward-looking connectivity, long battery life and decent ergonomics. It might not be the best laptop for every buyer, but in its own understated way it’s just right for the job.

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.
