Our sample arrived in a plain brown box with the company name listed on the front.
Inside, the MSI box is much more colourful, featuring a Red Dragon and the words “Top Player Top Choice”. Clearly they haven't seen my last online gaming session a few months ago.
Inside, the laptop is protected underneath a felt wrap sandwiched between thick cardboard on both sides.
MSI include detailed literature on the product, alongside a 6 cell battery (5,900mAh) and a Delta Power supply adapter.
The laptop is protected with two separate layers of felt protection. A larger black bag covers the complete chassis and inside, a white felt bag slides between the screen and the keyboard.
MSI also supply a package which contains an MSI badge – you can stick this onto any place you wish, such as the lid, or beside the keyboard. We didn't open this as we know MSI will need to ship this sample elsewhere afterwards.

No laptop is worth that money, u could get a PC that blows that out of the water for the same price
When I see a mechanical drive now in such a machine I always despair. its such an oversight as nothing is more important for a machine than a fast drive. even the CPU or GPU isnt as important.
@ Stephen, well you can’t really carry around a £1,000 desktop, or put it in a bag in cabin luggage on a plane. Its horses for courses. Many people love these tiny little machines for mobile gaming.
I think MSI dropped the ball a little with this spec though.
is this windows 7 or 8 ?
What do you think it is? Microsoft is paying big money to shove win 8 down our throats.
I bought this laptop last week and it came with a 128 ssd + 750 gig standard HD. I upgraded the ram to 16 gigs and so far it’s been a great little machine. The pre installed software bloat is definitely an issue though. Navigating the msi site for driver updates is also a bit of a pain. If you go to the main site it’s alright but picking the Canadian site and trying to find any information is completely useless.
The machine ships with Windows 8. I got the machine with no OS installed and slapped on Windows 7. All drivers available on the product page at MSI.com
