Reviews for the MSI Stealth 18 AI Studio A1VIG

50% MSI Stealth 18 AI Studio review: A big laptop with a big price tag
Source: PC World English
MSI’s Stealth 18 AI Studio A1V has its virtues. It’s a large laptop with a big, vibrant Mini-LED display, decent keyboard, and lots of connectivity. The Stealth is also thinner and lighter than most 18-inch laptops. However, the Stealth’s retail price of $4,200 feels excessive. It’s more expensive than a similarly equipped Alienware m18 R2, and only a couple hundred less than a similar Razer Blade 18. Both alternatives are far more attractive and beat the Stealth in performance. That leaves MSI’s 18-incher in a tough spot. It’s passable, but the alternatives deliver far more value for your money.
