MSI's 16-inch Stealth 16 AI+ B3W is a thin aluminum gaming and creator laptop, covered in its RTX 5070 Ti version: Core Ultra 9 386H, RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU (125W), 32GB DDR5, 1TB SSD, a 2560x1600 240Hz OLED and a 90Wh battery.

Pros
- 16-inch 2560x1600 240Hz OLED with VESA DisplayHDR True Black 600 certification and 100% DCI-P3 (typical) coverage
- In review testing, the 90Wh battery lasted about 9.3 hours of Wi-Fi web browsing with the integrated GPU active
- 1.99kg aluminum chassis, 16.65-19.99mm thick, for a 16-inch laptop with an RTX 5070 Ti
- Two DDR5 SO-DIMM slots (up to 128GB) and two M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD slots allow upgrades after purchase
- Two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB-A, HDMI 2.1, 2.5G Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7, plus a fingerprint reader and IR webcam
Cons
- No SD card reader, numeric keypad, G-Sync, Advanced Optimus or touchscreen
- The full 125W graphics power limit needs Apex mode, which is also the loudest fan profile in review testing
- The built-in speakers were weaker than expected for the size in review testing, and the lid now opens only to 140 degrees, down from 180 on the previous design
- Costs $2,999 for the RTX 5070 Ti version at launch, with the RTX 5080 version at $3,299
