MSI Pulse GL66

Strengths

The laptop has a great combination for 1080p gaming, with an i7 11800s processor coupled with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 laptop GPU.
The thermal department is next level thanks to all of this dual fan setup and the next level heat pipes.
The battery life lasts around four hours which is decent considering it's a beefy gaming machine.
The webcam is surprisingly good, making it suitable for video calls and small video footage.

Weaknesses

The starting price of 1.4 lakhs may not be justified considering the competition from other brands like Acer and Asus at lower prices.
The panel isn't super bright and the body isn't lightweight either, which might be a concern for some users.
The fans get super loud to the point where you can't hear game audio, making it necessary to use headphones.
The color accuracy of the panel is not great, which may be an issue for content creators who require accurate colors.
