Some cons highlighted with the MSI Katana 15 were a slightly shorter battery life than we would have ideally desired, a slightly washed-out display, and a garishly designed gaming keyboard.

scottslayer There are a noticeable amount of customer reviews complaining about QC involving poor performance and multiple randomly dying laptops in a row along with bad service from MSI.Reply
I looked into getting a Katana within the last week because it was discounted $400 above the regular fake discounts...until I realized it was discounted because theyre getting ready to dump stock and dump the problems.
Now its discounted another what, $100? (:ROFLMAO:), but alas I shall not be buying.
