MSI GL62M 7REX Reviews

Evaluation 5
Advantages: There are no complaints on the stuffing, nothing slows down, I hardly hear anything without a load, of course it buzzes with a load. Separately like the forced fan acceleration button
Disadvantages: On a working laptop, I have an ips matrix. The difference is immediately visible, the viewing angles are not vertical at all, you can almost tilt the lid, it is dark at the edge
Comment: The keypad backlighting is only red and the keys with red ends. On the case, where the parts of the lower part are connected, a sharp edge is obtained.

Advantages: Excellent performance
Cool sound
Light
Disadvantages: Very dirty
Without backlighting, the characters on the keyboard are very poorly visible.
Comment: Took over 54k. In April 2018. Nout fire, only very easily so immediately buy cleaning products. And SSD. Without it in any way.

Advantages: The laptop in the configuration 1050 ti 4gb, core i5 7300hq, 8gb ram, HDD 1 TB, FreeDOS. Nothing superfluous, and it has a positive effect on the price, while competitors for such and big money offer laptops without any HDD or adequate cooling system at all.
one.Weight and dimensions are small, you can take with you on a trip, just not to push it somewhere, because not the most stable.
2. The screen is not bad. Yes, not juicy, but about the terrible viewing angles - a fairy tale. By the way, the frames here are small compared to some like Dell
3. Cooling is good, no stand nafig not needed. Noisy, but in the headphones can not hear it.
4. The backlight of the keyboard is quite convenient, the keyboard performance is correct, the unnecessary key of Shindous is removed to the right.
5. The drivers are in memory, however, there are some jambs with a touchpad, which began to work normally only with a third-party program
6. There is a slot for SSD, and an additional one for RAM
Disadvantages: 1. Mediocre speaker sound
2. Slow hard drive
3. There were some creaks of the case at hand, but then passed
4. Corps maraya from ordinary sweat
5. Weak standard thermal grease, enough for 4 months
Comment: In general, it is far from an ideal laptop, but at prices it is the most favorable. Given that the budget gtx 1150 in the laptops will be presented approximately by January-February (but this is not accurate) - you can take it.
CS: GO - stable 120 on FullHD
Fallout 4 - 50 on high
Dirt Rally - 50-60 at ultra
In PUBG, I would not play, there are always friezes. Apparently, because of the shortcomings of the operative (the curvature of the developers)

Evaluation 5
Advantages: The ideal selection of iron:
-cooling that allows you to really play on a laptop
- performance thanks to modern technologies -m2 ssd, w-lan map killer, etc.
Comfortable keyboard with customizable backlight; chic, but strictly sustained style of the case (by the way, metal).
Small, but a plus for me is the lack of pre-installed garbage software.
Disadvantages: Of the serious flaws, only one is a sleek body. Unfortunately, it is treated only by careful handling of equipment. Of the not so critical - not very large viewing angles, but more on that below.
Comment: Acquired GL62M 7REX in this form: 1050ti 4GB, ssd m2 256, 8 GB.
Honestly, I thought a lot, read the reviews ... I used the laptop for three months, now it's time to argue with some myths.
1. There is a difference between 1060 3gb and 1050ti, but it is not very critical for this machine just for one simple reason - you have a FULL desktop graphics card in your laptop. Not cut off by frequencies, as most other manufacturers do, for which it is only important to declare loudly what a cool video card they have and how much memory there is.
2. Honestly, after buying, in the shortest possible time, throw RAM, but now I realized that the memory is quite smart and now the laptop does not need to be upgraded.
3. The viewing angles are not very wide, but not as bad as the people claimed in the reviews. Quite to yourself you can twirl your head, look at the film together. The image itself is juicy, bright (which rarely happens in a laptop).
4. The laptop DOES NOT OVERHEAT. Tuft some people drive. The main chip msi - most of the laptops are sharpened just for the game and has a corresponding cooling.
5. The body is brand, yes. But not so much that it would be straight to get dirty on its own from lying on a shelf - also don’t believe it. Just do not take the laptop after eating grilled chicken bypassing the stage of hand washing. And if they took it, they will have to wipe the case with cleaning wipes.
As for the "weak" battery - at least an hour you can drive to the "hard" games, for three hours you can watch the video. Few? Well, yes, this is not a super-autonomous netbook. This is a gaming, almost stationary laptop.
What about the flimsy cover. Plain top laptop cover. No worse and no better. MSI, of course, would be worth designing a cover that is more sturdy, superficially, but everything is given in favor of dimensions. Summarizing, I will not say that the lid "is ready to fall off the snap".

In summa - I'm a fan of high-quality laptops, but this is the first time I have such an ideal car in my life. Doubt - take it and do not hesitate. It's worth it.

Advantages: - Very smart and productive.
- There are no problems with the drivers, almost everything got up / upgraded / earned as it should (under Win10).
- Comfortable and nice native keyboard.
- Excellent hardware, which in general is enough for a long time (several years for sure), the ability to increase memory up to 32 GB is priceless.
- Ability to connect two additional monitors (eventually come in handy).
- WiFi catches perfectly, speed up to 5 Mbps.
- SSD (and this is my first time) is fantastic and a very necessary thing :) The OS loads very quickly. Installing Win10 from a flash drive took less than 5 minutes :)
- I was very pleased with the opportunity to change the Fn and Win buttons in the BIOS in places; I used to win on the left. It remains to rearrange the buttons themselves :)
- The price for such iron is quite acceptable.
Disadvantages: The cons are not critical, but they are:
- Marked case, traces on the surface remain instantly.
- Noisy cooling system.
- I didn’t really like the screen, it is poorly calibrated (I have a TFT matrix).
- The keyboard works fine, but now the software has been crooked, Windows eventually replaced the drivers with stock and does not want to roll it back. As a result, some functions have not yet been able to work. And the lights (I have red), I did not understand whether it is possible to replace it. On off.sayte it is written that dual-color, in the application in general, shows an RGB-keyboard with the ability to color three zones (this is when the application was still running). But the most I could do was change the brightness and turn it off.
- I don’t have enough USB ports, I’m used to 4, and then 3 I’ll have to purchase a hub.
- The sound ... well, it's probably normal for a laptop, but it is very so-so, in some games (GTA IV, for example), the sound falls into a mess.
- The disk (which is not an SSD) does not seem to be very smart (5400), although I did not find reliable information. Will need to change.
Comment: So it turns out in our time that the best hardware for work (development) is mainly in game models. For me personally, this is a nice addition, because I also sometimes do not mind playing :) The above mentioned trifles are a little upset, but on the whole I don’t regret the purchase, I am very pleased with the laptop. I hope it will last a long time.

Evaluation 5
Advantages: + Amazing performance. Mounting / Rendering in Premiere Pro is a pleasure
+ Excellent keyboard backlighting. (for the Chinese version you can do laser engraving)
+ Wide upgrade opportunity. Up to 32GB DDR4 RAM and M2 SSD (took from Samsung - now it loads in 5 seconds and just flies)
+ Game potential. Almost all the games I tried went to UltraHD's ultra-settings.
stable 60fps (Battlefield 1, GTA V, TheWitcher 3 (although I had to disable various effects here)). In poorly optimized games like PUBG stably 50-60 frames.
Disadvantages: - no autonomy for non-game use - only 2.5-3 hours
- non-removable battery, working poverbank also impossible to pick up
- Chinese version of Windows for one language (easily solved according to the instructions from the forum w3bsit3-dns.com with saving the license)
- a bit noisy in everyday use
- poor assembly, in particular, the lid flexes and backlash
- very dirty from the touch of fingers
- bad webcam, but this is for all laptops
- after 4 months I found a light in the lower left corner of the screen, which then disappeared o0
Comment: Completion with i7-7700HQ and 1TB HDD, purchased in one well-known online store for $ 900. For this money there were no competitors for this model. After the upgrade (installing SSD in slot M2), so generally perfect.
