MSI Creator 15 Professional Laptop

I have used this laptop for a month now. I had it imported into a non-US country. Pros: -The screen is of a great quality with rich colors; making graphic and video related work, a pleasure. -It does handle most workloads with ease (Word, web browser, Spotify, photo editing software, all at the same time), however freezing and jittering can happen if the drivers are not up to date, or buggy. -It does not seem to have any issues with Windows 11. -Great customizability for the RGB keyboard. -The USB Type-A and Type-C ports, and RJ45 port also eliminate the need to have a dock plugged in, most of the time. -Nearly the entire laptop chassis (except for the bezel around the screen) is made from aluminum and it feels really solid. -There are enough vents to keep the laptop sufficiently cooled. -Value for money! I spent a while looking for something in this price range and the closest competitor was the Aero 15. There was the Zephyrus G15 too but that was out of my price range. With the great deals they offer on this laptop, it might be the best option in terms of value for money. Cons: -The fans are on, nearly all the time; and it is not a quiet whirring but more of like a aircraft waiting on the taxiway in the distance kind of whirring. You are able to hear them whirring from the adjacent rooms in your home too! I decided to turn the GPU and CPU fan speeds to 0% (when the temps are cool) in the included MSI Center Pro software, so with light loads, they do not come on. -The speakers do not have much sound below the 200Hz frequency, so there is not any oomph or low end bass - even with adjusting the EQ settings in the Nahimic Companion. Things can sound quite boxy. They get averagely loud. -The webcam is...well, it's a webcam. It's OK enough for online meetings. -The included MSI Center Pro software is very buggy. It's the go to app for managing driver updates, fan speeds etc. but it crashes a lot and can sometimes hang while installing driver updates. -When you do update your BIOS, the computer restarts and the fans go on max speed, which could scare you if you don't expect it. -The screen has a glossy panel and can be a problem in well-lit rooms or working outside. -For a Creator laptop, it is quite sad to see that there isn't an SD card slot available. -The power brick is really comparable to a brick. It's quite heavy compared to other power bricks I have used. Overall, I think it may be the best laptop I've owned yet. I think MSI is really giving a lot for the money we are paying; it's great for those who want to use it for photo editing, music production, general use or light-moderate gaming. *For other international customers, the power brick does allow you to swop the cord to one that will fit directly into your wall outlet, with a range of 100V-240V*
