Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you need a laptop with a lot of power, this is it. I use this for video editing and graphic animation. Video renders are very fast when working in 1080. Haven't tried 4k yet. I previously owned an MSI, used it for editing and graphics, it lasted me 6 years! The only downside to this laptop compared with my old MSI, this one is VERY heavy. But I'm ok with that. It also took me some time to figure out how to make the keyboard stop blinking. That was annoying.

This laptop is a power house! I wish it had more ports in the back, but that's just my wishes. I have been trying to overload the system, but it keeps running everything smoother than butter despite the umpteen programs I have open across 3 monitors! At this price point it's a no brainer to get this laptop for gaming, working, or just owning a powerful laptop. I have not tested the battery life without being plugged in, but with a 99.9 WHr capacity I'm sure it holds up just fine on it's own. Again, speed is killer and I can not imagine needing more than 32GB of ram. The QHD 240hz is top notch, but I don't have anything else to compare it to other than my old Macbook Pro.

For this price it should not be a "tinkerers" project machine. Great minutes out of the box then Windows Update updated the video drivers, machine popped up a message that the MSI True Color app would need to be manually updated "If the screen appears washed out after automatic updates" So MSI knew there was a problem enough to create a special alert for it but not to do anything about it. Yep, rebooting after Windows Update and you could hardly read any text anywhere on the screens. MSI web page says manually uninstall MSI True Color ap then go find the support page by yourself and download the Intel and NVidia drivers and reinstall them and then manually reinstall the TruColor app. Did it. Still barely readable screen. Did it again. Did it a third time. Logged into MSI support (I have two other 15" Stealths that hve been great all the way to completely rubbed-off WASD keys), went to the "Live Chat" page which has "Search FAQs" and "Search Customer Forumns" but No Chat system. Huh. No Support number to call. In the cusotmer to customer forums there is the washed out screen problem for newer Stealths and Titans with the notice of the recommended steps I had already taken not always working and a user pointing to download a 3rd party driver update tool from some guy he knows. Again, look at the PRICE of this unit... if at this price it does not work out of the box with zero issues and - these days - does not have an OEM control center tool that does the fixes for you then,,, back it goes. Too bad, over the years MSI has been my goto solid. One day with this one, many tries giving it the benefit of the doubt, back for a refund. Oh well.

Very easily the best gaming laptop I have owned. I have yet to find something on it I don’t like. I had the previous generation the gs76 and I didn’t like the keyboard on it. But now the gs77 has a keyboard I absolutely like.
