Little Work Machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Helped my uncle with needing a small compact computer for work purposes to run special applications. His programs also required windows pro. Computer was on sale and a good deal for the specs.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:Camera position, Screen quality

Annoying features for the price
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is in a weird position below the screen. It makes me look weird when i'm on video - which is a lot these days! Also, the keyboard uses a weird font so the L looks like an I - which is hard for my kid to use as she is learning to type. And lastly, I really wish I had gotten a touch screen. I can't believe that for $800, this computer doesn't have a touch screen!

good laptop.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for everyday and business use. I liked how fast it was, very smooth, very light. The only thing is the webcam. Instead of being at the top, it is at the bottom. This makes it very awkward when doing Zoom calls, etc...you look weird because it always seem like you are not even looking at the camera.

Quick college laptop.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great specs for the price when U bought it $250 off the sticker price. Only complaint is that the trackpad mouse keys are subpar.

So far, so good!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price! Slim, light weight, fast. The camera is at the bottom of the screen rather than the top which makes the angle a bit off when doing zoom meetings. It looks like you are looking up. Not a huge issue but that’s the reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The MSI A14 laptop is a very nice laptop for the sale price that I got. It has a back light keyboard and pretty good specs for a thin metal laptop around $550.

Q: QuestionWe understand this MSI Modern 14" i5 laptop does not enable Bitlocker Encrrypton even with Windows Pro on it. Does it let buyer neable device encrypton or does it arrive at Best buy without possibility of enabling device encrypton on it? If not why not?
Asked by GHTSM.
- A:Answer There are ways to enable bitlocker without a TPM, but it requires you to set up the security with a USB key. If you are looking to purchase a laptop with TPM capabilities, you will want to look into the Prestige and Summit series of laptops.
