I got the katana a15 last month with exact same specs and price. My experience with it has been awesome. The laptop handles every game that I've played at 2k with ease. I also play valorant and I get 380-420 fps in game on highest settings (600 in training area), so good for fps games as well. I also take it to college and this laptop will get you around 4 hrs of screen time on medium brightnes with casual note taking and some web browsing. Thermals are great too, never seen this laptop go above 70-75 degree (CPU) and 65 (GPU). Before buying this, I was a person who thought MSI laptops overheat but I still bought it cause it was a good deal and I'm pretty impressed with this one
I have a 2017 MSI Dominator Pro 17" that is still kicking hard. I play COD and WOW mostly plus school/work, plus run an online store, plus run my laser and 3D printer software. No issues. I was looking to upgrade because it is such an old system and technology is better now. Thanks for this video!

My only two complaints are: 1. Battery life (it's too short, it only lasts 3 hours) 2. The cooling system is noisy.
I still use msi leopard RTX 2070 and its just starting to show its age. Back then I paid 1500 bucks. I feel like you dont get as much for the money now a days.
@@adamissa4152 It's doing great so far. Temps are pretty low, i haven't seen it go over 80C after an all day gaming session, while running a heater in my room. I keep it slightly lifted up on my desk. I play and get stuff like*: RDR2 80fps, DAYZ 120 fps, GTAO 100fps , DOTA2 220 fps, CS2 200~ on max settings. I would only upgrade RAM to 32 GBs. The build seems pretty solid, with the metal lid and metal keyboard/pad area. I don't see any flex, build is pretty good. I don't like the design much. I like the laptop's performance tho. Screen is nice too, but not sure about G sync. It's my upgrade from 15 year old dell office computer with Fuji gtx 750, lol. Very good overall.
