MSI-GX640-098US-PC-World.jpg

PC World have published a review of the MSI GX640-098US laptop. 'The MSI GX640-098US features a black, brushed-aluminum design with red accents. The cover is fairly simple, with a silver, mirrored MSI logo in the center and a thin red plastic strip at the bottom being the only details. The inside has a red plastic border around the keyboard and touchpad, plus a futuristic-looking red-and-black strip of touch-sensitive buttons above the keyboard. The buttons include rewind, stop, pause/play, and fast-forward media buttons, as well as an 'Eco' button (for cycling through a variety of modes, including gaming mode and office mode), a 'Cinema Pro' button, a Webcam button, a Bluetooth button, a Wi-Fi button, and a programmable button.'

MSI CX600 Review - CNET UK

CNET UK have published their review of the MSI CX600 laptop. 'The CX600 is a fairly large device, measuring 374 by 30 by 247mm, and weighing 2.5kg. That, you'd presume, would give it plenty of room to accommodate all the ports one could wish for. Sadly, this isn't the case. The CX600 has a paltry three USB ports -- the same as you'd get on a netbook -- and, despite its fancy graphics card, lacks an HDMI output. Instead, users have to put up with a D-Sub VGA output, which is a crying shame. There's absolutely no way of outputting the video signal digitally to an external display.'

MSI X-Slim X400 Review - CNET ASIA

CNET Asia have published a review of the MSI X-Slim X400 (Core 2 Duo U2300 Processor 1.3GHz, 2GB RAM) laptop. 'The MSI X-Slim X400 comes in three color schemes--white with blue trimming and black with either silver or gold lines. Though it does not use metal in its chassis, the plastic body feels well-made and solid enough for daily use. This material probably contributes to its light 1.5kg heft, even as of its competitors weigh around 1.8kg. The 24.5mm profile makes this MSI one of the sleekest 14-inch machines in the market. The keyboard uses flat keys which are spaced closely together. According to MSI, this design is ergonomic and reduces stress on the fingers. However, we found the comfort of this setup to be very subjective and touch typists may need a little time to get used to the keyboard.'

Trusted Reviews have published their review of the MSI X-Slim X600 - 15.6in CULV (consumer ultra-low voltage) laptop. 'You get an Intel Core 2 Duo SU9600 CPU running at 1.6GHz with 3MB L2 Cache, a plentiful 4GB of RAM and a massive 500GB hard drive. There's no optical drive, though, which to us is just silly. At the very least you ought to get an external drive, but instead MSI offers a serviceable, plain carry bag, which while nice is about half as useful. Wireless-N Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet and Bluetooth round-off the otherwise competent feature set, while a two year warranty is very welcome, but MSI's obsession with the X-Slim aesthetic ultimately comes at the expense of practicality.'

The Register Hardware have published a review of the MSI X-Slim X600 laptop. 'On the left, you'll find two video outputs in the form of HDMI and VGA ports, along with Gigabit Lan and a combined eSATA/USB port. Over on the right, you get two more USB ports, audio in and out sockets, plus an SD/MMC card slot. The power socket is also on the right. There are no ports on the front or rear of the chassis, nor is there room for an Expresscard slot. The 15.6in display features a glossy coating and runs off a 16:9 native resolution of 1366 x 768. Like the vast majority of laptop displays these days, it's LED backlit. It's also impressively bright, but we had to chuckle when, on the specification label on the box, we noticed it's listed as "15.6 WXGA (Glare Type)".'
