Add as a preferred source on Google

MSI is a brand often associated with gaming laptops and hardware, and at CES, it is proving that true once more. For the new year, MSI is introducing a GS75 Stealth laptop with the latest Nvidia GeForce RTX 20-series GPUs, and a PS63 Modern Prestige laptop aimed at content creators.

Leading the MSI lineup will be the GS75 Stealth. Coming with a 17.3-inch 144Hz display, and just 0.75 inches in thickness, it sports a thin and light 4-sided thin bezel design and comes packed in an aluminum alloy body. Elsewhere it comes with the latest Intel Core i7 series CPUs and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 graphics on board. For extreme cooling, there are also seven copper heat pipes and two dedicated fans on board. Other technical specifications and pricing were not available at the time of writing, but MSI will also be launching a revamped version of last years GS65 with the same processors and GPU.

The second laptop is the PS63 Modern. While not the most powerful of gaming laptops, it comes with options for the latest Intel Core i7 processor and Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 graphics on board. It has a sleek 15.6-inch screen and is about 0.63 inches thick, with 3.53 pounds in weight. For extra security, the PS63 modern comes with a touchpad that has a fingerprint sensor built in. 16-hour battery life, and support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 wrap up the features on the device. Configurations, pricing, and availability were not mentioned at CES.

Last but not least is the GE75 Raider. This is one of the first laptops with Nvidia’s new GeForce RTX 2080 GPU, also coming with the latest Intel Core i7 Processors. It is crafted for gamers and comes with a reflective diamond cut trim, and a red anodized finish. Other features include the MSI Cooler Boost 5 technology with two dedicated fans and seven copper heat pipes, plus a per-key customizable RGB gaming keyboard.

Expect to hear more on pricing and availability on these products as CES rolls on.

Asus’ powerful new gaming laptop with a 240Hz Mini LED display makes its global debut
The 2026 ROG Strix G18 pairs up to RTX 5080 graphics with an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus CPU
ROG Strix G18 (2026) laptop

Asus has started rolling out the 2026 ROG Strix G18 globally, and the easiest way to describe it is as a slightly toned-down version of the ridiculous ROG Strix Scar 18. It keeps the same 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor but tops out at an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU instead of the Scar’s RTX 5090. (via Notebookcheck)

Every app on my phone has decided I need AI, and none of them bothered to ask
AI assistants are invading everything from photo libraries to messaging apps, and dismissing them only seems to guarantee they’ll return later.
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

My wife doesn’t use AI very much. She isn’t philosophically opposed to it, nor is she waiting for the machines to overthrow civilization. She simply opens Google Photos because she wants to look at her photos.

Lately, however, the app keeps greeting her with invitations to try its AI tools. Google would very much like her to search her library conversationally, generate something new, or ask Gemini to edit a photo. She dismisses the prompt, gets on with her life, and eventually meets it again.

Shopping for Back-to-school? These are the gaming laptops I’d recommend
Powerful enough for AAA games, practical enough for everyday lectures, assignments, and everything in between.

Every gamer knows the pain of trying to do too much with the wrong hardware. Back-to-School is the perfect excuse to fix that. A good gaming laptop shouldn’t just hit high frame rates -- it should also survive endless browser tabs, assignments, coding sessions, video edits, and everything else college throws at it. These five machines strike that balance better than most, which is exactly why they’d be my picks this semester.
