MSI GS70 2OD-Stealth 17.3 inch Laptop Review

To test today, we are putting the machine through a variety of ‘real world’ situations, mirroring the real world usage of a potential customer.

One as a media movie lover on the move (wearing headphones), a person wanting to watch high definition media on a train journey or bus with screen brightness two notches from maximum.

Second as a businessman, with screen brightness around half way. Wireless was enabled. A mixture of checking, answering emails using Microsoft Office and editing pictures in Adobe Photoshop.

Lastly as a gamer, playing Half Life 2 until the machine turned itself off.

Battery life is strong, especially with Intel HD4600 graphics enabled. We managed to get close to 5 hours under ‘general' working conditions. When gaming this dropped to just under 2 and a half hours which is reasonable.
