Powered by the Snapdragon X Elite chip, it boasts impressive speed and efficiency, making it a strong contender in the market. With its stunning 3K AMOLED display and sleek design, this laptop is sure to turn heads. But how does it fare in real-world use?

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.
