Editorial note

The MSI GE72 Apache-096 is a laptop that stands out for its impressive performance, particularly thanks to its Intel® Core™ i7 7th generation processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1050 graphics card. These features make it an ideal choice for gaming and demanding applications, ensuring a smooth and efficient user experience. Its 17.3-inch Full HD display with LED backlighting offers exceptional picture quality, allowing for total immersion in your multimedia content. Additionally, the audio system, with four speakers and a built-in subwoofer, contributes to an immersive sound experience, enhancing your gaming or entertainment sessions. However, some drawbacks must be considered. Weighing 2700 g, this laptop can be difficult to carry on a daily basis, making it less suitable for users looking for a lightweight device. Furthermore, the 51 Wh battery may provide limited autonomy, particularly during intensive use, which can be problematic for those who need long operating time without recharging. In terms of connectivity, while the MSI GE72 Apache-096 features USB Type-C ports and fast Wi-Fi compatibility, the lack of a Thunderbolt port and USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports limits connection options and data transfer speeds compared to some competitors. Finally, the GTX 1050 graphics card, while acceptable for light gaming, may not meet the demands of recent titles or intensive graphic applications. Overall, the MSI GE72 Apache-096 offers good value for money with its generous storage capacity and solid performance, but users will need to weigh these advantages against its limitations in terms of portability and connectivity.
