Kort testrapport MSI PS42 8RB Prestige (i7-8550U, GeForce MX150) Laptop
Een goede eerste poging. MSI wil zijn assortiment uitbreiden met Ultrabooks en de PS42 vertegenwoordigt de eerste poging van de fabrikant om 14-inch breedband-producten voor zakelijke gebruikers te bieden. Het resultaat is een uniek systeem dat op enkele punten vergelijkbaar is met de XPS 13, maar met een langere lijst met gebreken.

| Het scherm vertoonde prima responstijden in onze tests maar is misschien wat te traag voor competitieve games. Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.8 (minimum) tot 240 (maximum) ms. » 38 % van alle toestellen zijn beter. Dit betekent dat de gemeten responstijd vergelijkbaar is met het gemiddelde (25.7 ms) van alle geteste toestellen. | ||

Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.9 (minimum) tot 636 (maximum) ms. » 24 % van alle toestellen zijn beter.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM waargenomen | 25000 Hz | ≤ 22 % helderheid instelling |  |
Het backlight van het scherm flikkert aan 25000 Hz (hoogstwaarschijnlijk met PWM - Pulse-Width Modulation) aan een helderheid van 22 % en lager. Boven deze helderheid zou er geen flickering / PWM mogen optreden. De frequentie van 25000 Hz is redelijk hoog en de meeste mensen die gevoelig zijn aan flickering zouden dit dus niet mogen waarnemen of geïrriteerde ogen krijgen. Ter vergelijking: 53 % van alle geteste toestellen maakten geen gebruik van PWM om de schermhelderheid te verlagen. Als het wel werd gebruikt, werd een gemiddelde van 8946 (minimum: 43 - maximum: 142900) Hz waargenomen. | |||

De MSI PS42 heeft veel te bieden, maar de kostenbesparingen zijn moeilijk te negeren. Ten eerste beperkt het ontbreken van Thunderbolt 3 de connectiviteit en veelzijdigheid. Dit zou geen probleem zijn geweest als de PS42 goedkoper was, maar hij is te koop voor ongeveer dezelfde prijs als de XPS 13, HP Spectre 13 of MateBook X Pro die allemaal standaard Thunderbolt 3 hebben. Het donkerder beeldscherm, langzamer 1x1 WiFi, single-channel RAM, iets minder goed presterende CPU, weglating van NVMe en minder robuuste behuizing zijn allemaal teleurstellend om te zien wanneer de meeste concurrenten betere opties bieden.
De positieve kanten van de PS42 zijn het lichte gewicht, het zeer nauwkeurige 1080p-matte beeldscherm en de krachtige GeForce MX150 GPU. Dit is waarschijnlijk de enige 14-inch laptop die een 25 Watt '1D10' MX150 GPU gebruikt in plaats van de langzamere 10 Watt variant. Gebruikers kunnen games spelen of grafisch intensieve taken uitvoeren zonder bang te hoeven zijn voor GPU-throttling.
Als de prestaties en draagbaarheid van de GPU optimaal zijn, kan de PS42 een goede optie zijn. Anders is de 13,9-inch MateBook X Pro op bijna elke andere manier superieur voor in wezen dezelfde vraagprijs van $1000.
De PS42 is een respectabele eerste poging tot een traditionele Ultrabook van MSI met zijn sterke grafische prestaties, lichte gewicht en nauwkeurige kleuren. Niettemin heeft MSI, met een aantal zichtbare bezuinigingen, nog een lange weg te gaan voordat het zich kan meten met doorgewinterde Ultrabook fabrikanten.
