MSI is known for manufacturing laptops for the gamer crowd, however, the Prestige 14 is designed for creators. The laptop in this deal packs a 14-inch (1920 x 1080) display, 3.0-GHz 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1185G7 quad-core CPU, 16GB of RAM and Intel Iris Xe graphics. There’s a speedy 1TB SSD inside for fast file transfers and storing large files. In our MSI Prestige 14 review, we appreciated its gorgeous, lightweight design, great keyboard, and solid performance. It’s battery life was also impressive, it went the distance of 9 hours in our laptop mag battery test. We gave the MSI Prestige an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars. The review unit we tested had a 10th Gen Intel Core i7-10710U and 16GB of RAM. It juggled 20 open Google Chrome tabs while simultaneously streaming Netflix without slowing down. We expect even better task-handling performance with this laptop’s latest 11th Gen Intel Core i7 CPU and 16GB hardware.
