Manual of product Gaming GP60
Editorial note
The MSI Gaming GP60 is a laptop that stands out with its Intel® Core™ i5-4210H processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® 940M graphics card, providing solid performance ideal for gaming and resource-intensive applications. Its 15.6-inch Full HD display, with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, ensures exceptional display quality, thus enhancing the user experience. However, some aspects may disappoint users. The weight of 2400 g can make it less convenient to transport, especially for those looking for a lightweight model. Additionally, the lack of a touchscreen may limit interaction, while the maximum memory configuration of 16 GB may not be sufficient for users with intensive multitasking needs. Finally, the pre-installed Windows 8.1 operating system and the absence of USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports may seem outdated compared to newer models. In terms of design, the modern black is attractive, but the weight can be a drawback for some. The battery life is decent, but the specifications on usage duration remain vague, which can be problematic for users on the go. Lastly, while the keyboard layout is functional, the lack of a numeric keypad and modern features may hinder some demanding users. Overall, the MSI Gaming GP60 offers good value for money, with appreciated features like the Full HD screen and expandable memory, but it is important to keep its limitations in mind to make an informed purchasing decision.Score details
