Pros and Cons

MSI Pulse 15

Strengths

The MSR pulse 15 is a more entry level notebook from the gaming brand which aims to deliver Artic 4060 gaming without breaking the bank... it's not the aim of this notebook, it is meant to be a portable 1080p piece of hardware and it definitely succeeds
The 1080p model is definitely the budget option and for those who want a 360 HZ panel perhaps a more competitive gamer the MSR pulse 15b 13v comes in a simple brown box which includes the notebook and the 240 W power adapter
The display takes up a good amount of real estate on the top lid and the keyboard features a four Zone backlighting and also comes with a number pad... the WD keys are also translucent for that whole gaming feel
The MSR pulse 15 definitely comes with everything you need to play games while it won't play them at the highest possible settings and resolution... image quality was also great and the colors were vibrant
The performance benchmarks, I then played some games and ran some tests across a number of titles when it came to Thermal testing the MSR pulse 15 held up as well as you would expect

Weaknesses
