MSI is no exception: The company is refreshing the internal hardware for its Prestige line of ultra-thin laptops and convertibles, including the Prestige 13 AI, 14 AI, 14 Flip AI, 16 AI, and 16 Flip AI.
As you might expect, the Prestige 13 AI is the smallest member of the family, with a magnesium-aluminum chassis finished in platinum gray, weighing just 899 grams (1.98 pounds) and measuring only 15.9mm thick. Your primary interaction will be via the 13.3-inch OLED display, which features a 2880 x 1800 resolution at 60 Hz (no option to upgrade to 120 Hz).
Given the current pricing volatility in the memory market, MSI isn’t providing details on base RAM or SSD configurations. However, it states that the Prestige 13 AI supports up to 64GB of LPDDR5x-8533 memory and up to 2TB PCIe Gen4x4 SSDs. More importantly, it’s running Intel’s Series 3 Core Ultra processors (although MSI didn’t specify which ones). Other features include Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0 support, a 1080p IR webcam, dual 2-watt speakers, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, and a microSD reader. Power is supplied by a 75 Whr battery, which is recharged via a 65-watt adapter.
