Edit: The listing now says it has a touch screen which makes this an amazing deal, IMO.

Dedicated GPU not necessary for Minecraft and similar online games.

Adds cost, weight, and reduced battery life.
Inferior and costs more for use case expressed.

Intel i5/i7 have Iriis which are more than capable of such games.
Same is true for the Ryzen.

--
Yes the MSI is a great deal for those seeking a cheap 'gaming' system....its just that one the graphics used in the games expressed work just fine with even quite old iGPUs that are vastly weaker than the current iris ones.

--

For the "S" mode commentator...."S" mode is nothing more than a default setting that limits what can be done and is mostly there to simplify stuff in theory. If you don't like it...turn it off.

They replaced it with one without a touch screen Frown
Wow they did didn't they. Very weird. Same item number and everything. I never use a touchscreen on a laptop anyway but it was still nice to know it was there. Definitely a step down. Still overall decent basic system. Maybe I'll try and dual boot it with a hackintosh DSDT.

Yes.

Seems like it doesn't cost anything to do it either: https://support.microsoft.com/en-...Windows_11

It says touchscreen on the site but the actual laptop is not? This is for my father in law and it's easier for him with touchscreen.

Went ahead and ordered this for my kid's birthday. Reuturning a HP with same stuff except no touchscreen and only 8gb ram. Looks like a solid machine for kids games like Minecraft and Roblox.

I bought one a few weeks ago and is has a touchscreen. Worst case is it doesn't have one and you can return it.

Thumbing it down because for around $50 more you can get this with a touchscreen.The ram isn't 12GB like this one but 8GB is still respectable for the price.
This one does have a touch scree

Am I missing something? It says it's touchscreen for me. I checked the specs page too and says "yes" under touchscreen. I opened in the app in case that makes a difference.

Awesome. They fixed it. So hopefully there is not a version without and it was a typo. Coolness.
