| The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 54 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (20.9 ms). | ||

| The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 44 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (32.8 ms). | ||
Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM detected | 25000 Hz | ≤ 22 % brightness setting |  |
The display backlight flickers at 25000 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 22 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 25000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8705 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. | |||

Det finns mycket gott att säga om MSI PS42, men en del nedskärningar är svåra att ignorera. Som exempel begränsar avsaknaden av Thunderbolt 3 anslutbarhet och mångsidighet. Detta hade inte varit ett problem om PS42 var billigare, men den kostar ungefär lika mycket som XPS 13, HP Spectre 13 eller MateBook X Pro, som alla har Thunderbolt 3 som standard. En mörkare skärm, långsamt 1x1 WiFi, enkelkanals-RAM, en CPU som presterar i underkant och ett mindre fast chassi känns som en besvikelse när de flesta konkurrenter erbjuder bättre alternativ.
Egenskaper som återupprättar PS42 är låg vikt, en väldigt exakt matt skärm på 1080p och en GeForce MX150 GPU med full kraft. Detta är antagligen den enda modellen på 14 tum som använder en 25 W '1D10' MX150 GPU istället för den långsammare varianten på 10 W. Det går att spela eller utföra grafikintensiva uppgifter utan oro för att GPU:n ska strypas.
Om GPU-prestanda och mobilitet är av yttersta vikt kan PS42 vara ett bra alternativ. Annars vore det bättre att investera 2.000 - 3.000 kronor mer i en MateBook X Pro på 13.9 tum, då den är starkare när det kommer till ordbehandling och vardagsanvändning.
PS42 är ett respektabelt första försök av MSI att skapa en företagslaptop med smal infattning, stark grafikprestanda, låg vikt och exakta färger. Men trots det innebär en mängd nedskärningar att MSI fortfarande har en lång väg att gå innan de kan stå sida vid sida med mer vana Ultrabook-tillverkare.
