Question 1

Will the Prestige 15 A10SC-297 support three monitors when its lid is shut?

Accepted Answer

I run 2 external monitors thru a USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 docking station, so I'm not sure. It has an HDMI and 2 Thunderbolt 3 connectors so thoretically you could use those for 3 total or daisy chain displays through Thunderbolt, but in practice I haven't done it. But I'd say your odds of pulling it off are much higher than most other laptops!

Question 2

Does it come with a USB-C charger or is a docking station required?

Accepted Answer

It comes with a power brick that has a USB-C connector, yes.

Question 3

Does this model actually come with the 4-cell battery? On the MSI website it says the A10SC-297 should come with a less powerful 3 cell battery, but the specs on newegg says it comes with a 4-cell.

Accepted Answer

Yes, it has a 4-cell, non-removeable battery. Both the specs sheet on MSI's website and the product listing on Newegg say the same thing: 4 cell (82Whr).
