Manual of product Classic CX640MX
Editorial note
The MSI Classic CX640MX is a laptop that stands out for its reliable performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i3 processor, providing a smooth user experience for everyday tasks. Its 500 GB storage capacity allows for saving a large amount of data and multimedia files, making it an interesting choice for users with significant storage needs. However, some aspects leave something to be desired. The 4 GB internal memory may prove insufficient for those with high multitasking needs, thus limiting the fluidity of the user experience. Additionally, the lack of USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt ports limits connectivity options and fast data transfer, which could be a drawback for users wishing to connect multiple modern devices. Regarding design, the black and silver model presents a modern and sleek look, making it suitable for professional or personal use. However, its weight of 2600 g may make it less portable, which is a factor to consider for those looking for an easily transportable computer. The 15.6" screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels offers satisfactory display quality, but this may seem low compared to current standards. Finally, the absence of Bluetooth limits wireless connections, further restricting the product's flexibility. In summary, the MSI Classic CX640MX is a solid laptop for simple tasks, but it has certain limitations in terms of connectivity and performance that may not suit all users.Score details
