Reviews for the MSI Stealth A16 AI+ A3XVGG
I replaced my desktop with this MSI laptop for a week, and it surpassed my expectations
Source: Zdnet.com
The MSI Stealth A16 AI Plus is sold exclusively at Best Buy for $2,000 MSRP. However, at the time of this writing, the model has been discounted to $1,700. I recommend picking up the laptop at that price, especially as a desktop replacement. With the right laptop docking station, you can connect to a pair of external displays to enjoy everything it offers, although its 16-inch WQXGA (2,560 x 1,600 pixel) display is still quite nice.

MSI Stealth A16 AI+ review: AI won’t help make this anything other than mediocre
Source: Laptop Mag
I can’t say I’m a big fan of the MSI Stealth A16 AI+. Yes, it offers a comfortable keyboard and touchpad experience. I even like that it supports long gaming battery life, all packed into a svelte chassis. However, it falls short on performance and with its display. Both are respectable, but they can’t justify the Stealth’s $2K price. For the same price, you can buy the Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 9, which supports a brighter and more colorful display, a faster SSD, and much stronger overall performance. Overall, the MSI Stealth A16 AI+ is a decent gaming laptop, but it’s one that you should wait to get on a severe discount ($500 at minimum).

MSI Stealth A16 AI+ review: A jack-of-all-trades
Source: PC World
The MSI Stealth A16 AI+ is a well-rounded laptop that’s best for people who need one machine capable of handling many tasks. It’s quick enough to handle demanding content creation, has a GPU that can play modern games at respectable resolutions and detail settings (and accelerate some productivity tasks), and has battery life long enough to make the laptop a good travel companion. This isn’t the best laptop for any single job. Some alternatives have better battery life, stronger performance, or a superior display. But if you need a laptop that can handle a bit of everything, the Stealth A16 AI+ fits the bill. And, speaking of bills, it’s not especially expensive; the base MSRP of $1999.99 compares well to more luxurious alternatives like the Dell XPS 16, Asus ProArt P16, and Razer Blade 16.
