MSI Stealth 15M review: thin doesn’t always win

 

It has a lot going for it, but it's outclassed at this price.

Elegant, lightweight design that doesn’t look like a gaming laptop ; A generous selection of ports

It’s costly ; You can get more power for this price ; The fans can get annoyingly loud

MSI’s Stealth 15M is a thin, lightweight 15.6-inch gaming laptop with impressive specs and a high cost. It’ll be a solid option for people who don’t mind knocking graphics settings down for the best frame rates.

MSI Stealth 15M Review

 

Nvidia's latest GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs are empowering a new level of performance in gaming laptops of all sizes, with slim and light systems in particular benefiting from this added power. The MSI Stealth 15M (starts at $1,399; $1,699 as tested) is...

Sleek and compact for a 15-inch gaming laptop Strong GeForce RTX 3060 performance for high-refresh 1080p gaming 32GB of memory and 1TB of storage in our test model

Gets hot during gaming, particularly on the bottom Mediocre battery life

A GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD make MSI's Stealth 15M an appealing midrange machine for high-refresh-rate 1080p gaming.

MSI Stealth 15M review: A budget gaming laptop with a premium price

 

The MSI Stealth 15M isn't worth the trouble for the price

Strong performance and graphics ; Thin and sleek design ; Comfortable keyboard

Poor battery life ; Dim and dull display ; Quiet audio

The MSI Stealth 15M has strong performance packed into a thin chassis, but the dull display and poor battery life don’t match up with its high price point.

MSI Stealth 15M GeForce RTX Laptop Review: Faster Graphics than the Dell XPS 15, HP Spectre x360, or Asus ZenBook

 

The raw performance of the Stealth 15M A11SEK is impressive considering how light it is and that it's running on a Core U-series CPU. Unfortunately, the weak build quality and hinges leave a lot to be desired.

very lightweight with high performance-per-gram;decent temperatures when under load;fast GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q graphics;good CPU Turbo Boost sustainability;thin and attractive visual design;RGB backlit keyboard;fast recharge rate;Thunderbolt 4

simple RAM or SSD upgrades require breaking a 'factory seal' sticker;fans are always active and audible when connected to AC outlet;no IR camera, fingerprint reader, or Kensington lock;lid is weak and prone to teetering and flexing;no 4K UHD display...

MSI Stealth 15M review – the definition of thin and light gaming notebook

 

The first thought that came to our mind when we first took the MSI Stealth 15M in our hands was “Well, this looks familiar”. In fact, its body is suspiciously similar to that of the old…

Good amount of power inside a very thin and light notebook;3200 MHz memory in dual-channel, one M.2 PCIe x4 slot, Thunderbolt 4 + Wi-Fi 6 support, and a MicroSD card reader;The display doesn’t flicker at any brightness level (BOE NV156FHM-NX4);Has a...

The cooling is a bit inefficient (and sounds weird);It gets pretty warm on the outside when gaming;Covers only half of the sRGB color gamut (BOE NV156FHM-NX4);Battery life is only average

MSI's Stealth 15M Is the Most Portable 15-inch Gaming Laptop

 

If you want a gaming laptop with good performance that you can still carry around, MSI's Stealth 15M is the thinnest (and one of the lightest) options around.

Super thin design, 144 Hz display, good port selection, supports USB-C charging, bright RGB keyboard

MSI Stealth 15M

 

The MSI Stealth 15M is a mid-range gaming laptop with impressive specs. However, there are too many flaws to make a purchase worthwhile.

Subtle, black, part-aluminium shell ; Light and slim for a performance laptop

Poor display colour saturation ; Low maximum brightness ; Very short battery life

The MSI Stealth 15M is a gaming laptop light enough to be carried around on a regular basis – which is a sound concept. However, that angle is undermined by poor battery life, and the weak colour saturation is difficult to justify even when you...
