Furthermore, the lack of a touchscreen may limit certain interactions, and its bulky design can complicate storage in tight spaces. The battery life, although unspecified, is often a weak point for gaming laptops. Finally, the high cost of this device may make it inaccessible for some users, especially those looking for more economical solutions. Overall, the MSI Gaming GT80S 6QD is a solid choice for gamers seeking top-notch performance, but it is important to weigh its drawbacks before purchasing.
