October 14th, 2009 10:56 AM #1I have scouted around Cebu for laptops and came across MSI brands, and like the features of MSI EX460 since it has a core 2 duo processor and a 512 (discreet) ati video. With its price of around 35K, no other laptop with such features can compete. But, my question is- Are MSI laptops reliable, sturdy,etc...? For those who are owners of laptops of this brand, please give me your feedbacks... TIA...

I'm also looking at an MSI laptop...... The MSI GT725 or its successor.

October 20th, 2009 09:57 PM #5We have in our company several brands, HP, Acer, Asus, MSI, Lenovo. All i can say is that MSi is reliable because there were no issues encountered.
2 of our Asuses burned its batteries, 1 Lenovo had it LCD blacked-out same with the Acer. HP so far no problems but I maintain two in my family and issues sofar is the thermal shutdown.. After cleaning the heatsinks and re-seating with silicon grease, its stable again.
For Netbooks:
I've owned 2 MSI Wind U100(with BT) both sold after months use, and now using Wind U123H (the one with N280 and 3.75G adapter). All i can say for those models they are superb, stable, no heating issues. 9cell bat last from 9pm to 10am but i replaced it with 3-cell for more portability.
To note, i just checked/ tried to repair my friends 6months old AAOne with annoying LCD lines and opening it was really pain in the ar$e. Don't know with Asuses if the iron-like heat produced at the bottom was already resolved..
Pics of internals, look at how Acer LCD ribbon cable was arranged, and SMD's arranged as compared to MSI.

My daughter just bought a U100 + series.
I'll buy a netbook too and considering MSI too. I'm also considering the ASUS and Toshiba NB200 series.
