Having the latest hardware or having maximum portability might be essential in a gaming laptop, but one can’t discount the importance of aesthetics as it can elevate the gaming experience and allow each individual to express their personality, making a statement in today’s age of minimalism and dedication to function over form.
Inspired by the cyberpunk aesthetics of iconic gaming sci-fi titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Deus Ex, MSI is taking design to the next level with its Cyborg 15 B2RW gaming laptop, harnessing not just the power of the latest processors and GPUs, but also featuring a bold, futuristic look that redefines the feel of a next-generation gaming device.
Measuring just 22.15mm at its thinnest point and weighing a mere 2.1kg, the Cyborg 15 is forged with a metallic black chassis that features exoskeletal curves across its surface, with a translucent design along its sides and around its keyboard area to allow users a glimpse at its internal structure, giving it a unique look that stands out from the crowd.
Bold looks aside, the laptop also packs in the power to fulfil its promise as a truly next-gen gaming laptop, offering up to the Intel Core 7 processor 240H, the newest addition to its CPU family, utilising its renewed hybrid core architecture of six Performance-cores and four Efficient-cores for better multitasking and a 15% increase in performance versus the i9-13900H. Complementing its processor’s power is an equally impressive GPU, housing up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 laptop graphics processor, which utilises its new Blackwell architecture for game-changing AI-enhanced features like DLSS 4 upscaling, full ray tracing and Reflex 2, ensuring not just graphical fidelity but smooth performance and responsiveness.
Frames win games, and that’s why the Cyborg 15 comes equipped with a 15-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080 resolution) IPS panel display capable of outputting at a silky-smooth 144Hz refresh rate, ensuring every movement is sharp and smooth for ultimate immersion and a competitive edge. Loading intensive applications and games is also a breeze, thanks to its two DDR5 RAM slots with a maximum capacity of 96GB, alongside up to 1TB of NVMe SSD PCIe Gen4 storage.
As a gaming device meant to be taken on the go, the Cyborg 15 is built for comfort and longevity, featuring an innovative cooling system with a CPU and GPU Shared-Pipe design that enables real-time heat dissipation, balancing between the two for improved efficiency, maintaining heat levels even while gaming on the move. This is coupled with its beefy 55Whr battery capacity with fast charging and Power Delivery 3.0 support, ensuring users are always ready to jump back into the game.
As an AI (artificial intelligence) PC, the Cyborg 15 maximises efficiency with Microsoft Copilot, an AI assistant that enables smarter productivity, alongside the MSI AI Engine, a laptop control hub that automatically detects user scenarios to adjust hardware settings accordingly for the best performance, optimising the device to allow users to make the most of their work or play.
Starting from S$1,599, the MSI Cyborg 15 B2RW gaming laptop is now available online via the MSI Store, or in-store at retail outlets like Best Denki, Harvey Norman, Challenger, Gain City, COURTS and other authorised dealers.
