MSI Katana 17 Gaming Laptop: 13th Gen Intel Core i7, GeForce RTX 4060, 17.3" 144Hz FHD Display, 32GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe SSD, USB-Type C, Cooler Boost 5, Win11 Home: Black B13VFK-835US

I love the laptop. The price for the performance is amazing. MY only downside is the battery life. This must be the area of saving. But it has a great cooling system and has not come close to over heating while running and plugged in.

Buenisima tremenda laptop

Excelente

Muy bueno

Recently purchased product to get back into gaming. ill be honest if you're looking for 1080p gaming at its finest on a laptop, its hard to argue with this one. so far i've been using it for about one week. and i've played pretty reasonable games i believe (COD:MW3, HELLDIVERS 2, KILLING FLOOR 2, DYINGLIGHT, DESTINY 2) All of these games I've sat and played for at least 4 hrs each on high-ultra settings and it easily handles over 60 fps. HOWEVER i did get a cooling fan because i read previous over heat reviews before purchasing so i cant say if its loud or not while gaming just yet.surfing is a breeze. but ill be honest I'm not the consumer who has over 20 tabs open. i usually always consistently close browsers or delete unused apps. and i use a dual set up as well. even before i actually realized it was meant for 1080p gamingthe shipping came a day after it was suppose to arrive. however the packaging and everything was pristine. the looks pf the laptop feels very exclusive, sleek yet certain things feel mediocre? i feel like the body of the laptop feels a little on the low end in terms of quality giving for the parts that's in it. The only concern i have with this laptop is the battery. i plugged it out while the game was running it was at 98 and i left for 20 minutes and it was sitting around 25. i don't want to seem exaggerated but at a full charge the time on the system says 1 hr & 50 minutes.... and that's before i run any programs or software. but after sitting down and running a couple games with the benchmarks and i have an xbox one series X as well. and in my opinion its really hard to argue with the value you get with this. i DO NOT regret this purchase.

Amazing PC, 100% recommended. For gaming, for movies, for work. It is just perfect, for a reasonable price

The media could not be loaded. Before reading this review, keep in mind that the sample size is 1(ONE) laptop.I cannot say for certain that all laptops of these series are bad, but i can say that 100% of this series of laptops that i have purchased (1 btw) is complete dog poo.tl;dr-delivery is nightmare for working class stiff (unless WFH)-all this bloatware that comes pre-attached with windows 11, and nvidia drivers, as well as norton anti-virus (LOL) which you CANNOT shut off-frame rate in this copy was dog poo, (extremely unstable hitting lows of 30, highs of 200, average about 40fps)-absolutely chugging when it comes to, say, 100 tabs (don't look at me like that, there are people like me out there)=was unable to test durability because it was returned in the first week=did not test battery life, as was plugged in from the start and being sent back=did not test speakers or keyboard or touchpad because i like my physical addons+1tb ssd seems cool i guess. people pay good money for this component alone+physically, structure is flat and airflow seems pretty decent without any addons+screen seems pretty huge for a laptopOverall 3/10mediocre for gamingterrible for workbad for multitaskingIf you want a computer that can do what this one does, buy an actual computer with parts you can change out.you're paying a huge premium to have this amount of tech be portable.Unnecessary Rant:Why on earth does a 1,300$ laptop "made" "FOR GAMING" hit 30 fps in ye-olden games such as-dota 2-league of legends (literally made with potato pc's in mind)-Team fortress 2Admittedly ran Battlefield 2042 pretty well with minor hiccups, but i run every game at min settings??sure, it hits 200 fps (ON OCCASION), but the monitor's refresh rate is 144??? so what's the point of going all the way up to 200 and then shooting down to 30????The fps simply isn't stable, and jumps from 30 to 200, averaging maybe 40 from what i can tell?Last 7 year old msi laptop that was literally coming apart at the seams was performing better in these games, and it was gtx 1060. I bought this laptop to replace it, thinking i was buying cutting edge.the only thing it cut was my wallet.Also prone to freezing when simply alt tabbing from games to work, and freezing when loading too many tabs on browser of your choice (admittedly, this was a limit test of hardware capabilities)Delivery was a nightmare, though it was the better of two evils.Amazon delivery gave prediction from 0800-2200 of certain day, so I had to call out of work.I did not respond in the 5 minute window in which they told me delivery man was present (partially my fault i guess, but a 5 minute window from a 14 hour window???)next day, i took another day off from work to sit outside 40 mins in advance (when notification said delivery driver was 9 stops away).Amazon driver required my passcode to be entered into his device before he could give me the item.The other option was to leave it on doorstep and pray a porch pirate does not find it, which would be worse.Recommended to buy this stuff directly from a store, or utilize a third party drop off.

Fast, nice display, and doesn't overheat. This is my third MSI gaming laptop and I'm happy with it.The only drawback is all the junk Windows 11 loads onto the laptop. Not MSI's fault. It occurs on any Windows 11 system, but takes time and patience to try to eliminate all the junk. Just setting up the screen saver takes going to FOUR different windows and setting the options one at a time. C'mon Microsoft! And you can't delete some of the more annoying Windows junk programs. MS Windows is a tyrant.
