The 2025 MSI Titan 18 HX still delivers excellent performance in a premium 18-inch notebook package. It is, however, a hardware refresh of the exiting Titan 18 chassis, and that means it gets a handful of quirks and particularities that you must embrace, with the mini LED display and the mechanical keyboard and the haptic touchpad. It also runs toasty at higher settings at chassis level, and actually excels on a Silent mode that you can only get with older control software right now. But are you going to drop 4-5K on this and use it on Silent mode?
Pros
- premium materials, build and craftsmanship quality
- mech keyboard with Cherry switches, RGB glass touchpad
- beautiful 4K mini LED matte display
- very powerful in games and sustained workloads
- versatile Silent profile, still available with older MSI Center software
- decent audio
Cons
- make sure the particularities of the design, inputs, and 4K mini LED panel are right for you
- high CPU and chassis temperatures on Extreme Performance, despite running loud
- botched Silent mode on the latest MSI Center versions
- only available in higher-specced configurations, thus expensive
