Pros: - Blazingly Fast - Great, and very customizable RGB, and when turned off, this laptop looks very appropriate for the workplace as well.

Cons: - Not really a fan of Windows 11, or how impossibly hard it is to remove certain microsoft software like office. - The case is a little "flexy" with a bit of squeak when you rest your left hand on it next to the trackpad while typing.

Overall Review: So far, I am a very big fan of this laptop. the build quality is great, the keyboard is surprisingly better than I expected (I'm spoiled coming off my GT80 and GT83VR, with cherry switches). I appreciate that it incorporates a lot of the latest technologies (gen 4 x4 nvme, ddr5 @ 4800, etc.) that other competitors tend to skimp on while trying to advertise as a similar value due to having a 3080TI. Also, as far as head cooling, msi still seems tops on laptops, as I have yet to encounter any kind of thermal throttling compared to others.
