Hey everyone, I have been look for a new laptop due to black Friday. I have set my eyes on the MSI stealth 15 with the 4060 model. I couldn’t find many reviews of the 2023 model so I would like to ask some questions. I am currently a university student who does computer science. I will be mostly looking to use this for class, coding and gaming. It would be really helpful if anyone knows the answers to the following:

  1. What is the build quality like? (plastic or metal)
  2. What are the hinges made of (plastic/metal)
  3. What is fan noise like for a laptop as powerful and slim?
  4. What is the performance like then plugged into an external monitor?
  5. Anyone with older versions of the stealth 15 what is their life span like? Can they last 4 years+?

Much appreciated if anyone can help me out!

    I had a 2019 Msi stealth gs65 (15.6”) from 2019 until just a couple months ago. Amazing build quality. All metal. No hinge issues. Traveled the country with it constantly.

    Never had a single issue. Sold it after 3 years of use for half my money back.
