MSI Prestige PX60 2QD review

The MSI Prestige PX60 2QD is a gaming laptop that wants to give you a bit of high-end design flavour.

There’s none of the loud ‘n’ proud multi-colour nonsense you’ll find on gaming juggernauts like the Asus ROG G751. It wants to be a bit more stylish, to offer you a bit of MacBook-style flair while blowing any sub-£1000 Apple laptop out of the water with its gaming skills.

It’s also a fair bit thinner and lighter than some gaming laptops. However, with a disappointing battery life, don’t think of this as anything approaching a road warrior. Take the MSI Prestige PX60 2QD out for a day of work away from the socket and you’ll have to clock off well before lunch time.

As a first-go for the MSI Prestige range, the PX60 2QD is a decent intro, but in its attempt to cover both the needs to gamers and more officious types, it ends up not really acing either area.

Brushing off the metal

First, let’s check out those lines. The MSI Prestige PX60 2QD is a serious-looking laptop, perhaps a bit more severe than your average Ultrabook. But from all that metal on show you can tell it’s after some of that Ultrabook feel.
