If you're on a budget and mainly engage in everyday tasks like web browsing, document editing, and video streaming, the Jumper 16" Laptop's lower price will likely appeal to you and meet your needs. But if you require high-performance for gaming, 3D rendering, or intensive engineering software, investing in the MSI Raider GE66 will provide the necessary power, despite being more expensive. The MSI Raider also offers an advantage in gaming experiences with its high refresh rate displays and more robust graphics capabilities. However, expect the MSI to be less portable due to typically being heavier and having a shorter battery life compared to more budget-friendly options like the Jumper. Give Feedback

The MSI Raider GE66 has a better screen than the Jumper 16" Laptop for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Jumper 16" Laptop, with its basic resolution and brightness, offers a clear and bright enough display for typical tasks like browsing and watching videos, which suffices for general use. For engineering and design, where precise color reproduction is key, the Jumper's fair color gamut coverage falls short of professional needs, yet is functional for non-critical tasks. The MSI Raider GE66, however, shines in both general use and design with its superior resolution, brightness, and color accuracy, but for gaming and 3D work, its lower refresh rate means less fluid motion, which can hinder fast-paced visuals.

Patrick Schüdzig | June 2022
"The MSI Raider GE66 12UHS notebook passes with flying colors. The GE66 is a high-end notebook with strong performance. The keyboard and trackpad are still very good and score well with precise inputs as well as high build quality. Thanks to a new liquid metal cooling solution, the Intel Core i9 12900HK brings a performance increase of around 50 percent over the predecessor's Intel Core i9 10980HK. The installed graphics card in our device delivers up to 30 percent higher frame rates than the RTX 2070 Super in the MSI GE66 10SFS."
