Editorial note

The MSI GT60 is a laptop that generally offers a positive user experience thanks to its 15.6-inch Full HD display, ensuring quality visual immersion with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. However, the lack of a touchscreen may limit interactions for some users. In terms of performance, this device stands out with its Intel® Core™ i7-3610QM 4-core processor, which provides powerful performance, especially for multitasking and demanding applications. The internal memory of 12 GB in DDR3-SDRAM also contributes to a smooth and responsive usage. However, the battery life remains a weak point, as its maximum duration is not specified, complicating the assessment of its use without being plugged in, a concerning aspect for users on the go. Additionally, the weight of 3400 g makes this laptop relatively heavy, which can pose portability issues. In terms of value for money, the MSI GT60 offers a storage capacity of 750 GB on a 7200 RPM hard drive, as well as a quality stereo audio system, thus providing a good compromise. However, the absence of USB 3.0 ports may limit data transfer speeds. Finally, although the product design is modern, the lack of advanced security features, such as a security cable port, raises concerns for users who are security-conscious about their data. In summary, the MSI GT60 is a good choice for those seeking high performance and display quality, while keeping in mind its limitations in terms of portability and security.
