Pros and Cons

Acer ConceptD 5

Strengths

Packs a lot of hardware inside, including an i7-9750H CPU, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD space, and 2TB hard drive space
Features Quadro RTX 3000 graphics, which is technically the lowest end Quadro RTX but performs very similarly to an NVIDIA RTX 2060
Has a stunning 100% color calibrated Adobe RGB panel display
Has a good amount of power and a really good price point to match the rest of the markets
Features an SD card reader, USB type-c, thinner and HDMI ports, making it suitable for professional use
Has a neutral design that would fit in well in boardroom environments
Has a fairly tactile feel keyboard without being too loud or too mushy
The trackpad is pretty good, especially compared to some competitors

Weaknesses

Doesn't have an SD card reader and Thunderbolt 3 ports, which are notable exceptions for a professional-style machine
Can get a little bit loud during gaming and rendering applications
Has a small concept D logo on the top of the lid that might not be to everyone's taste
Pricing is around £2,000, which might be a bit steep for some users
Doesn't have as much RAM and storage as some other laptops in its class
The design is similar to the Acer Triton 500, but might not offer enough differentiation
Some users might find the price to be too high compared to other options on the market
Availability of this specific model (with Quadro graphics) might be limited

MSI GF63 Thin

Strengths

The typing experience is pretty good
It plays everything even brand new games at low details including Diablo I and Starfield
Casual gamers should be happy with this notebook as it handles competitive play well
Desktop replacement users may find it suitable for their needs due to the presence of two DIMM slots for memory upgrades
The battery life is good, despite being a con, it still weighs less than the average 15.6-inch notebook
It's cheap which makes it great for students

Weaknesses

The battery life is terrible like I previously mentioned
There's quite a bit of ghosting in the display
Only one dedicated external display is supported, relying on USBC for another monitor can be a hassle
Desktop replacement users may find it lacking due to the limited number of ports
The display has unsightly misalignment of stickers which might not sit well with some users
It gets mildly warm while gaming and the single fan is not very effective

Acer ConceptD 5

The Acer ConceptD 5 is a powerhouse laptop that's thin, light, and packed with impressive specs. Boasting an i7-9750H CPU, 32GB RAM, one terabyte SSD, two terabytes HDD, and Quadro RTX 3000 graphics, this machine is a force to be reckoned with. Priced around half the cost of rival laptops like Razer's offerings, it's an attractive option for creative professionals on a budget. Let's dive into what makes this laptop tick.

MSI GF63 Thin

The MSI GF63 Thin is an affordable laptop that delivers on its promises, albeit with some caveats. This budget-conscious machine is designed for students and casual gamers who want to play the latest games without breaking the bank. With an RTX 3050 graphics card, it can handle most modern titles at low settings, making it a great option for those on a tight budget. However, its battery life leaves much to be desired, and some compromises may need to be made in terms of performance and display quality.
