MSI Bravo 17

Seven years ago, I invested in a Samsung laptop worth around 16,000 for work and photo/video editing needs. It served me well until the fifth year when it started to slow down, freezing during video rendering and crashing frequently. A hard drive replacement with an SSD didn't fully resolve the issue, leading to frustrating experiences. I've recently upgraded to a new gaming laptop, but my trusty old one has left me with some expectations for its successor.

MSI Prestige 15

The MSI Prestige 15 is a compact powerhouse designed specifically for content creators. With its solid metal build and two Type-C ports, this laptop checks all the right boxes for portability and versatility. Powered by an i7 processor, it delivers impressive performance in CPU-heavy tasks like video editing. While its integrated GPU may limit gaming capabilities, it still manages to run light games with lower settings. A decent keyboard, touchpad, and fingerprint scanner add to its appeal, making this laptop a solid choice for those who need a portable workhorse.
