Product Overview

MSI Delta 15 A5EX is a flagship-level 15.6-inch gaming laptop. It features AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX CPU paired with AMD Radeon RX 6700M GPU in an all-AMD setup that rivals the best from Intel and NVIDIA.
Compared to the Alpha 15 B5EX unveiled at the same time, the Delta 15 is not only more powerful but also considerably thinner and lighter, thanks to its full aluminum construction. This is also aided by MSI's Cooler Boost 5 thermal solution with 2 fans and 6 heat pipes with redesigned thin walls.
Another highlight is the 240Hz FHD IPS display that allows the RX 6700M to stretch its legs and deliver a smooth gaming experience.
Other notable features include WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity, RGB backlighting for the keyboard, and Nahimic 3 Audio Enhancer.
The corresponding Intel-powered model in MSI's lineup is the GS66 Stealth.

Reviewer score 68% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from notebookcheck have found:
RX 6700M is fast enough to bring any modern game at the native Full HD resolution (1920x1080) and maximum settings smoothly onto the screen. Only in extremely demanding or poorly programmed games like Crysis Remastered or Cyberpunk 2077 does the frame rate drop below the 60 FPS mark. The sound quality of the built-in 2.0 system is decent, although the bass and the maximum volume leave something to be desired as is typical for laptops.
Pros
  • Matte IPS display
  • High-quality case
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • Poor ray tracing performance
  • No Thunderbolt 3

Reviewers from pcmag have found:
The MSI Delta 15's appeal centers on its CPU and GPU combo. Both outperformed the Razer's previous-generation Intel silicon, though the big Alienware's newer Intel "Tiger Lake-H" chip topped them all. The display, on the other hand, isn't the brightest, though as I said its color accuracy is quite respectable.
Pros
  • Powerful all-AMD CPU and GPU performance
  • Good battery life
  • Comfortable keyboard and touchpad
Cons
  • Display isn't the brightest
