    I would never again recommend MSI… I bought a 3000€ MSI Creator 3 years ago for work :

    • the hinges are breaking apart
    • some metal part on the size broke
    • the keyboard letter are scraping off
    • the microphone on Linux is unusable because of the fans

    Reaplcing the keyboard requires a full body replacement, which costs like 300€ 🙃

    I’ve also had some very bad experiences with a entry price gaming msi for someone in my family.

      It seems like every other PC Laptop has a problem whether it’s a Lenovo or Asus for example, my feedback on MSI has been good so far mostly based post-pandemic but things indeed can change if that’s your case. Do you have any preference of your own?

        You’re right, all manufacturers have their issues. I have a hard time finding one where you feel like it’s a safe bet. Which is why I’m leaning toward framework, but the company is young and has far less experience, so it’s also a risk…
