MSI Creator A16 AI+ 16" Laptop

I only got this just over a week ago but I figure I should give a review, for whatever it is worth, quickly as models run out of stock and are probably just replaced by something else. I immediately blew away windows and installed linux, after hopping a few distros I ended up on Mint 22.2 and installed KDE Plasma 6. Everything works great, no hardware hassles at all on linux, even with the other distros I tried installing first, no hardware issues just they weren't for me on a laptop. I notice that this feels very quick all of the time and sips power unless doing something extreme like 3D gaming. Screen is very bright, at night you will find yourself using it at 5% brightness, which is plenty bright. Colors are vibrant and fairly accurate, I think this has an IPS panel (in mine at least) and those do well with color accuracy. I am able to type quickly on the keyboard, the mousepad works fine and the pads of my hand don't accidentally trigger it when I am typing. The RAM is upgradable to 64GB (should have done this as soon as I bought it lol, DDR5 prices just shot through the roof thanks to the AI hyperscalers trying to monopolize hardware). The NVME SSD is also upgradable. It feels like it is well enough made. If I had any complaint at all is I wish it charged with USB-C instead of a barrel connector, as it is more versatile now and frankly I have never personally seen a USB-C connector fail on a device yet. Anyways, overall very happy I wasn't certain this would work with linux but it has been a totally problem-free experience.
