This thing is hot garbage, why does it get 76%? Should be much lower

If this laptop gets a 76% "good", then what gets a 66% (presumably "okay")? Because you haven't scored a laptop that low in the last year despite reviewing dozens each month.

And would a laptop being 10% worse really be okay by your standards? What gets a 55% (surely mediocre?) What about 44%? Do you never get a bad laptop?

If every laptop scores in the top 30% is there perhaps something that should be reconsidered with the scoring system?

I'm not going all "this is a shameful disgrace" type weirdo ranting, it just seems the scoring system is a bit silly/unhelpful in this context. Here's a laptop you just cannot recommend to anyone, yet it gets a really good score, as do all your worst laptops.

Horrible screen. Must be one of the worst possible.

MSI ventures into the competitive mid-range gaming laptop sector with the Katana A15 AI. This 15-inch laptop features a powerful Ryzen processor along with a GeForce RTX 4060 or RTX 4070 - and is massively disappointing in one crucial area.
