This may be meant as a gaming laptop, but its combination of some of the best components currently out there means it’s a creator’s dream too. It’s enormous, can get hot and loud and shouldn’t be used on your lap, but it carries an excellent screen to complement its processing power.

The MSI Stealth 18, as tested in this HX Intel variant, does exactly what it says on the tin – with the key caveat that the tin has been sensibly priced. It's not the smallest laptop you could find, even in the 18-inch category, but there are only a handful of alternatives that come slimmer with the same spec. That means those looking for a gaming laptop delivering 1440p/4K output that don't shout about their status from the rooftops should pay attention, as this is a great premium option.
