MSI Modern 15 H AI, Intel 1st Gen. Ultra 7 155H,Built-in AI, 40CM Laptop(16GB/512GB NVMe SSD/Windows 11 Home/Intel Arc/Classic Black/1.9Kg), C1MG-046IN

Review after using over 3 months I was long time Dell user, but, this is perfect Laptop for all day to day work including business/Programming /College activities. Boots very fast, all s/w runs without any glitches, provides inbuilt Ai msi center for boosting any specific s/w, does not heat, decent battery backup (5+ hrs), perfect 15.6 inch wide screen, backlit keys. Only laptop speaker volume is little less (you can boost it by any external speaker anyways), works well with LAN /Wifi /Blootooth. Charging speed is decent too, Build quality excellent. I got in a deal under ~50K. P.s. 1. Dell/HP/Lenovo & likes has a solid competitor.! 2. Gamers, this may not be for you, try other models of msi which are specifically meant for gaming.

It's been more than 2 months using this laptop, I would highly recommend avoiding this model as it seems there's some hardware issue (I hope only with my unit), specifically with fan not not working sometimes causing CPU to overheat and eventually putting the laptop into bootloop. I have tried everything possible at home to revive but had to take to service center (now 2 times) and they have repaired it by cleaning and reapplying thermal paste, thank god support is good in pune atleast but can't say anything about tier 2 tier 3 cities. If not considering the fan issues (it would have been value for money else) overall performance is good but you may feel 16 gb ram is less if you use this for productivity purpose (MS power bi development, coding etc) Screen/Display, battery backup and sound quality is just accepted, nothing great happening there Using the same CPU model in another work laptop and performance is too good if patched up with 32 gb ram and a dedicated GPU.

It's a good machine, I am using it for my it business. Only issue is that it heats up a lot. Rest ram can be upgraded to 64gb and external SSD can be used

Not a good product but you will have a sound with it 1. The moment you will boot it will eat 50% of ram with windows 11. So it's slow. 2. Not good for development or system admin with windows 11 home 3. No office 365 included. 5. Increase ram 2x if you want to use with windows 11. Max supported ram 64gb 5600m Not 32gb ddr5. 6. Linux support is not there. You can try fedora 41 but it won't be easy without proper acpi drivers or synaptic TouchPad drivers etc. 7. Too much finishing issue eg. Spot all over the body. 8. Battery backup will be max 1.5hours not more than that in maximum performance mode or in balance mode it is max 2hours. So you need to stay close to a electric source all the time. Go for it if you just need ultra 7 155h and 1tb nvme and you can atleast increase ram upto it's extreme point ie. 64gb to use it with it's supported os eg. Windows 11. It's not a flagship product but it must support a day to day software development or admin work with this configuration but unfortunately it doesn't. In short : Speed is too slow for this price point. If you want to put heavy workload eg. Llm you need egpu or other accessories, for virtualization related workload you can just try connecting another hypersor host from it. For development, you can try basic webdevelopment but not much. Lesser the workload is better you will enjoy only 60hz display.

Good product but battery backup very bad.

Good Laptop with powerful processor and memory. Build quality is good. Good for daily home use and light GPU work. Keyboard style could be better to enhance typying experience.

I am writing this review after a year of using this laptop It's not working as on today No value for money It turns on and within 10 seconds off The sound is very low Waste of hard earned money

Fast laptop. Value for money Got this one on sale for 55k Mousepad is bit unresponsive
