If your priority is gaming or more intensive tasks such as video editing, the MSI GF63 Thin with its dedicated Nvidia graphics card and a more powerful Intel i5 processor would be the better choice, yet it's more suited to shorter periods of use disconnected from a power source due to its higher power consumption. On the other hand, the Jumper 16" Laptop is better for basic tasks like web browsing and document editing given its lower-powered Intel Celeron processor and should offer a longer battery life, which is better for on-the-go use. It also has a larger 16-inch screen with a 16:10 aspect ratio offering more vertical space, which might be preferable for productivity tasks. Give Feedback

Florian Glaser | January 2020
"If you leave aside the meagre port selection (no card reader, no DisplayPort, no Thunderbolt 3 or USB 3.1 Gen2), the fan control that could be improved (idle mode!) and the relatively dark and slow display, the MSI GF63 Thin 9SC does not have any major weaknesses. The 15-inch gamer is compact, has a low weight and offers a good price-to-performance ratio, which should please gamers that are looking for both a portable and an affordable gaming notebook. Input devices, battery life, case quality and performance are all appropriate for this purchase price."
