The MSI Vector 16 HX is a reliable gaming laptop with a more compact form factor compared to the more common 17 and 18-inch alternatives. The smaller screen benefits from a 16:10 aspect ratio, providing much-needed additional display height. The build quality is generally good but is let down by a plastic base construction instead of a metal chassis, which may disappoint most users considering the price. On the inside, there's not much to criticize.
I like the bevel at the front and tapered sides, which make the overall aesthetic very good indeed. What could have been an overly imposing design is beautifully muted thanks to the Cosmos Gray colour scheme, which is consistent throughout. The trade mark dragon icon sits proudly on the rear of the display for those who want to boast about having an MSI machine.
The rear and two sides provide an abundance of ports, including USB-C, USB-A, and HDMI 2.1. Photographers will also appreciate the inclusion of an SD card reader.The 16-inch, FHD+ display has a 16:10 golden ratio, providing a little bit extra in terms of pixel space. I would have liked to have seen a higher resolution, as any games above HD in resolution don't look their best.
Alongside the CPU sits a high-end NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 4080 with a whopping 12GB of GDDR6. When playing War Thunder, I was able to experience lag-free gaming and satisfyingly high frame rates. It doesn't perform quite as well as the RTX™ 4090 but you have to pay a lot more for the privilege.
