MSI Reveals New Laptops Ahead of Tech Meets Aesthetic Event
MSI is gearing up for their Tech Meets Aesthetic event on May 17 by showing off some of the laptops that they will be providing more details on at the event. The laptops are powered by the Intel 11th Gen H processors and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 graphics card promising a 30% performance upgrade over previous models. You can watch the event on MSIology on May 17, and take a look at the previews we have below.
First, there’s the Creator Z16 (starting at $2,599), M16, and 17 models. The Z16 has a 16:10 display which I have found very nice for productivity and up to QHD+ resolution with the True Pixel display. The M16 seems to be a less robust laptop, but that will also make it lighter. Finally, the 17 offers a Mini LED display with AmLED technology for a great picture.
The GE Raider series of laptops is adding the GE66 (starting at $2,299) and GE76 (starting at $1,499) models with a fancy-looking Mystic Light bar. These offer Wi-Fi 6E, up to an RTX 3080, displays with up to 360Hz refresh rates, and Cooler Boost 5 technology to keep everything running smoothly.
Next, we have the GP66 ($1,899) and GP76 (starting at $2,099) Leopard models. These once again offer up to an RTX 3080 GPU, and all of them feature the i7-11800H.
In the Stealth series, there’s the new GS66 and GS76 models with a silver hinge accent, improved battery capacity up to a QHD 240 Hz display, and front-firing Dynaudio speakers.
The GL66 (starting at $949) and GL76 Pulse laptops feature a new chassis design inspired by Maarten Verhoeven who won the 2018 ZBrush World Competition. Their titanium armor protects a redesigned heat pipe with integrated thermal grease to generate more airflow resulting in lower temperatures. In addition, the laptops have number pads.
Finally, there are the Sword and Katana GF lines starting at $999. All of these take inspiration from Japanese illustrator Tsuyoshi Nagano who worked on the video game series Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In addition, they offer up to an RTX 3060 and number pads
