Review of MSI GS70 Stealth

Advantages of MSI GS70 Stealth:

 1. The MSI GS70 Stealth looks great, for a gaming laptop, and combines powerful hardware and a generous HDD/SSD combo into a slim body.
2.  Making small performance trade-offs to fit into a slim, attractive 17-inch body.
3. Longer MSI laptop battery  life: can work as long as 5 hours after fully charged.

 Disadvantages of MSI GS70 Stealth:

Gaming performance is a step down from the very top of the line, despite the high price. The lack of a touch screen makes it harder to use as an everyday Windows 8 laptop. Despite loud fans, the GS70 gets very hot when gaming.  

Design and features of MSI GS70 Stealth:
The design of the MSI GS70 owes a lot, in some respects, to the classic 17-inch MacBook Pro. That discontinued model, like this one, contrasts a large screen with a thin body, and uses a subtle, mostly frill-free outer shell to further deemphasize the body's large footprint. MSI claims this is the world's thinnest and lightest 17-inch gaming laptop, and the extended surface area makes it feel lighter than its 5.8 pounds (2.6kg).

The keyboard is a system highlight. It's branded by accessory maker Steelseries, and feels great, considering it's a flat-topped island-style keyboard, which isn't always everyone's favorite for gaming. The keys are large enough to hit cleanly, there's no flex even under heavy typing, and the bundled Steelseries software allows you to customize the multicolored backlights under the keys, and even assign many different macros to keys for different games. 

 
The interior of the system is also minimalist, with only a large power button sitting above the keyboard in a wide patch of empty space. If anything, there's too much negative space, and I would have liked to see some dedicated multimedia keys, such as volume controls -- something gaming laptops almost never have, despite a clear need.

The large touchpad, like most modern designs, is a clickpad-style pad, with no separate left and right mouse buttons. For gaming, you'll probably be using a mouse or game pad almost exclusively, but the pad is fine for everyday Web surfing -- although letting a finger drag near the right edge too often accidentally kicked up the Windows 8 charms bar.
 
Connections, performance, and battery of MSI GS70 Stealth :

One of the best things about using a 17-inch desktop replacement laptop is the wide range of ports and connections available to you. Despite the slim body, MSI still manages to pack in a lot, including four USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, and dual mini-DisplayPort connections. Even better, the system can drive all three video outputs simultaneously for a big multimonitor view.
