MSI Titan 18 HX AI Laptop Review

 

Back at CES earlier this year, we got a glimpse of the new Titan laptops from MSI. I've now had some

Stunning design.

Very expensive.

The MSI Titan 18 HX Ai is truly a stunning laptop, but with a price this high, it had to be.

MSI Titan 18 HX AI Review: The Ultimate Gaming Laptop

 

MSI's largest and most powerful gaming laptop is also its most premium, sporting a mini-LED screen and an invisible touchpad.

Glorious mini-LED display. Chunky, mechanical keyboard. Top-tier gaming performance. Powerful Thunderbolt 5 ports.

Finicky touchpad. Thick, large, and obtuse. Pitiful battery life. Crazy expensive.

MSI Titan 18 HX A2XW Review – How Much Power Do You Want? Yes.

 

The MSI Titan 18 HX A2XW is not so much a laptop as it is a statement. It is an unapologetic, flagship desktop replacement that throws subtlety to the wind in a relentless pursuit of power, features, and sheer presence. This is a machine for the...

MSI Titan 18 HX Review: Titanic Doesn’t Even Begin to Describe This Gaming Laptop

 

MSI's TItan 18 HX gaming laptop is the desktop replacement that comes extremely close to the power (and obscene cost) of an actual desktop PC.

Performance is great for both gaming and other intensive tasks ; Mechanical keyboard feels incredible ; Nice screen with good brightness ; Sound is solid and loud for this size of device

Terrible battery life ; Per-key RGB isn't very bright ; Astronomical (and rising) price

MSI Titan 18 HX This behemoth-sized laptop offers intense performance in a great chassis with excellent keyboard and display. It also costs well over $5,000.

Expert review by : Charles Jefferies (tomshardware.com)

The MSI Titan 18 HX AI is one of the most expensive gaming laptops we've ever tested. It's a powerhouse, but it isn't perfect.

 

Epic performance and stunning visuals are prerequisites when you're spending over six grand for a gaming laptop.

Exceptional performance ; Superb Mini LED screen ; Cherry MX mechanical keyboard ; Impressive build quality ; Thunderbolt 5 ports ; Triple SSDs, including one Gen5

Shockingly expensive ; Loud fans ; Brief battery life ; Finicky touchpad ; Average speakers

MSI’s Titan 18 HX AI delivers chart-topping performance, an exceptionally vibrant screen, and all the technology you can dream of. Although its loud fans and brief battery life are pitfalls, this monster is a dream machine for those who can afford it.
