MSI Unveils Next-Gen Laptops for Business, Productivity, and Gaming at CES 2026

MSI, a global leader in gaming, content creation, and productivity laptops, showcased its all-new lineup at CES 2026. The new models span Prestige, Raider, Stealth, Crosshair, and Modern series, all powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics. They deliver next-generation performance for professionals and gamers alike.

Prestige Series: Performance Meets Elegance

MSI led its showcase with the all-new Prestige series, designed for professionals who demand style and power. The laptops feature smoother contours, full aluminum construction, and refined craftsmanship, offering a premium experience inside and out.

The Prestige 14 and 16 balance mobility and performance. Weighing just 1.32 kg and 1.59 kg respectively, they pack Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors and Intel Arc B390 graphics for content creation, productivity, and even AAA gaming. The 81Wh battery delivers up to 30+ hours of 1080p video playback, letting users work for days without recharging.

MSI also introduced Prestige Flip models, combining 2-in-1 flexibility with touch-enabled OLED displays. The MSI Nano Pen enhances productivity, charging 45 minutes of use in just 15 seconds. It integrates with Microsoft Copilot for instant voice commands. Other highlights include the Action Touchpad, enterprise-grade security, and a 2.8K 120Hz OLED display with VRR and DisplayHDR True Black 1000 certification.

The Prestige 13 AI+ weighs only 899 grams, making it MSI’s lightest 13-inch business laptop. Despite its featherweight design, it delivers serious performance for mobile professionals.

Modern Series: Premium Design for Everyday Users

The Modern 14S and 16S feature refreshed metal designs with rounded contours, making them more stylish and durable. Dual memory slots offer easy upgrades, while USB-A, USB-C with display and charging, HDMI, RJ-45 LAN, and microSD card reader cover all connectivity needs. Despite these upgrades, the Modern S series remains portable, weighing as little as 1.3 kg.

Raider, Stealth, and Crosshair: Gaming Reinvented

The Raider 16 Max HX packs 300W total system power in a compact chassis, delivering 175W to RTX 5090/5080 GPUs and 125W to Intel Core Ultra 200HX processors. The Cooler Boost Trinity with Intra Flow thermal system keeps the laptop cool under heavy load. A 2.5K 240Hz OLED display ensures immersive visuals, while a quick-access bottom panel allows easy upgrades.

The Stealth 16 AI+, a CES Innovation Award winner, combines sleek design with upgraded thermals. At just 16.6mm thin and under 2kg, it pushes 20W more power to the RTX 50 series GPU than its predecessor. Connectivity includes USB-A, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, and RJ-45 LAN, while dual memory and SSD slots allow future upgrades.

The Crosshair 16 Max HX & Crosshair 16 HX deliver up to 200W total system power. MSI’s quad-vent Cooler Boost solution ensures stable performance, while a QHD+ 165Hz OLED display offers smooth visuals. The redesigned I/O layout simplifies cable management, and a 24-zone RGB keyboard adds flair for gamers.

Claw 8 AI+ Glacier Blue Edition: Gaming Goes Bold

MSI introduced the Claw 8 AI+ Glacier Blue Edition, featuring icy Glacier Blue tones and a curved body. It retains flagship specs, powered by Intel Core Ultra 200V processors and Arc Xe2 graphics, providing top-tier handheld performance in a visually striking design.
