Reviews for the MSI Prestige 16 Studio A13VF

78% MSI Prestige 16 Studio review: A mini-LED laptop for less
Source: PC World
The MSI Prestige 16 Studio is a great pick for content creators looking for a low-cost, large-screen laptop. Its miniLED panel is impressively bright for creating and editing HDR content, and the 16-inch 16:10 size offers a large canvas on which to work. You’ll need to accept a less-than-stellar build quality, however, and be okay with slower data transfers with the lack of Thunderbolt 4 support. And you’ll want to keep a pair of headphones handy because A. the speakers are pretty terrible and B. the laptop gets loud under load.

MSI Prestige 16 Studio Review
Source: Mobile Tech Review
MSI’s thin and light creator laptop for 2023 gets a 16” mini LED QHD+ display, an Intel Core i7-13700H with EVO certification and NVIDIA RTX 4050 / 4060 graphics. The MSI Prestige 16 Studio A13V is relatively reasonably priced for a content creation laptop, running $1,800 - $2,000. It has an ample selection of ports, a number pad on the keyboard, and both Windows Hello IR camera and a fingerprint reader.

40% MSI’s attempt at a MacBook Pro killer is a disaster. What went wrong?

Between the inconsistent performance, instability, and unnerving display whine, the Prestige 16 Studio is a laptop to avoid. Toss in the underwhelming performance of its mini-LED display, and the machine is one of the most disappointing I’ve reviewed in quite some time. If MSI can resolve these issues, then at its $2,100 price, the Prestige 16 Plus could be a contender. But as it is, it’s far too flawed.

First Impressions: MSI Prestige 16 (2023)
Source: Trusted Reviews
The MSI Prestige 16 (2023) is one of the most impressive laptops at Computex 2023, mostly because of that outstanding 24-hour battery life claim despite focusing on high-end creativity. No laptop with an RTX 4060 GPU can currently last that long on a single charge, so this would be a huge innovative leap. And with MSI implying this laptop could well be using a never-before-seen Intel Core processor, this could well be an exciting first glimpse of the next generation of Windows laptops. Is that enough for MSI to finally topple the MacBook Pro? I’m sceptical, but it’s possibly the best Windows laptop challenger yet.

16.00":

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.

66%: 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.
