86.1% 微星 Titan 18 HX AI A2XWJG 评测:酷睿至尊 9 285HX 和 175 瓦 RTX 5090 笔记本电脑性能无懈可击 | Notebookcheck
Titan 18 HX AI 采用精英级英特尔酷睿超 9 285HX、NvidiaGeForce RTX 5090 笔记本电脑 GPU 和 4K 120 Hz 迷你 LED 显示屏,不遗余力地追求移动游戏霸主地位。虽然 Titan 18 HX AI 是一款光环产品,展示了英特尔和 Nvidia 的最佳性能,但它也有一些引人注目的妥协之处,令人对其令人望而却步的 6600 美元售价产生质疑。
微星 Titan 18 HX A2XW 评测–您想要多少功率?是的

与主要竞争对手联想 Legion Pro 7i(详细评测)相比,泰坦的理念就很清晰了。尽管 Legion 是一款较小的 16 英寸机器,但它的 GPU 原始性能更强,电池续航时间是前者的两倍多。它代表了一种更均衡、更实用的高端游戏方式。华硕 ROG Strix SCAR 18 G835 2025(详细评测)也凸显了泰坦的低效,而其电池续航时间却远远超过泰坦。微星 Titan 18 HX 并不以纯粹的每美元性能或便携性取胜;它的取胜之道在于为那些希望获得最多功能的用户提供了无与伦比的功能集,即使这些功能并不总是最优化的。

85% MSI Titan 18 HX AI review (2025 model, Ultra 9 + RTX 5090)
Source: Ultrabook Review English EN→zh-CN
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?

MSI Titan 18 HX A2XW Review – How Much Power Do You Want? Yes.
Source: Laptop Media English EN→zh-CN
The MSI Titan 18 HX A2XW is not so much a laptop as it is a statement. It is an unapologetic, flagship desktop replacement that throws subtlety to the wind in a relentless pursuit of power, features, and sheer presence. This is a machine for the enthusiast who wants everything – the best CPU, a top-tier GPU, an incredible keyboard, and storage options that defy logic…and is willing to accept the significant trade-offs in portability and battery life that come with it. MSI has engineered a true monolith of mobile computing here. It is an awe-inspiring, deeply impressive, and equally flawed machine that represents the absolute peak of what is currently possible in a portable (in the loosest sense of the word) form factor.

80% Can a gaming laptop replace your PC? I put the MSI Titan 18 HX AI to the test for three weeks
Source: Techradar English EN→zh-CN
The MSI Titan 18 HX AI A2XWJG isn't your typical gaming laptop. Rather than focusing on portability and good-enough performance, the Titan brings serious power to the table - where it'll stay most of the time. It's not without faults, like loud fans and a touchy trackpad, but when you consider the capabilities of an RTX 5090 paired with a gorgeous 4K display, the MSI Titan 18 HX is easy to recommend as a desktop replacement if you have the scratch.

74% MSI Titan 18 HX AI (A2XWJG) Review – Superb Hardware, Subpar Execution
Source: Pokde English EN→zh-CN
While this exact unit Intel sent us is a US-specific model (A2XWJG-614US) with the $5799.99 price tag, Malaysia markets similarly has a model (A2XWJG-471MY) that shares identical specs and costs RM29,999 apiece. This is the kind of price bracket where “money-no-object” is somewhat justified, but even then the MSI Titan 18 HX AI comes with lots of flaws – despite its performance prowess – that prevents it from being a proper halo product.

While it's not for everyone and is certainly eye-wateringly expensive, the MSI Titan 18 HX AI is an impressive laptop that’s clearly out for more than just gaming. It's not perfect, but the sum of its parts – including its powerful combination of CPU, GPU, expansive memory and storage, and great mechanical keyboard – make it the desktop replacement to beat if you fit its niche.

2025 MSI Titan 18 HX AI Review
Source: Mobile Tech Review English
The MSI Titan 18 HX is one of the most powerful gaming laptops on the planet for 2025. It’s an 18” 4K mini LED desktop replacement PC with 175 watt NVIDIA RTX 5090 graphics and Intel’s significantly improved Arrow Lake HX Core Ultra 9 285HX. The laptop has a Cherry MX low profile mechanical keyboard, haptic backlit trackpad, Windows Hello camera, up to 96GB DDR5 RAM and it has 4 SSD slots. It’s also monumentally expensive. Given the high res wide gamut display, performance and ample storage it also appeals to creatives doing video editing, 3D modelling and more.

MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Hands-on: Laptop or Car Downpayment?
Source: Unbox English EN→zh-CN
The MSI Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Norse Myth is a beast of a laptop, boasting immense processing power, lightning-fast RAM, blazing storage speeds, and a premium design that makes it one of the most formidable gaming laptops on the market. But is it worth its steep Php 421,995 price tag (promo price)? Likely not for most, as savvy PC gamers could build a more powerful desktop for less. However, practicality isn’t the point—this laptop is crafted for those who demand the absolute pinnacle of gaming laptops, regardless of cost.

60% I tested the MSI Titan 18 HX — the power is wild, the price is wilder
Source: Tom's Guide English EN→zh-CN
The epitome of excess, and the image you’d find on the Wikipedia page for the saying “more money than sense.” This is a beasty gaming laptop with a monstrous price tag that makes it good on paper, but not something I’d tell anyone to go out and buy. If 5090 is your thing, the Strix Scar 18 is better value for money (nearly $2,000 less) without compromising anymore than a few frames per second. But you could legitimately get away with RTX 5080 and 5070 systems, save yourself a ton of money and still get shockingly good frame rates with all that AI trickery. Don’t get me wrong. The MSI Titan 18 HX is not exactly taking your money and setting it on fire. It is a mightily powerful system, but definitely not the smartest purchase — certainly not the best gaming laptop you can buy.

90% MSI Titan 18 HX AI Laptop Review
Source: Kitguru English EN→zh-CN
The core specs are impressive – the combination of an Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX, Nvidia RTX 5090 mobile, 64GB of DDR5 memory running at 6400MT/s and a whopping 6TB of Raid 0 configured SSD storage combine to deliver truly top tier mobile performance. The design is eye-catching and the machine definitely has the ‘wow factor' – The seamless, haptic trackpad and fully mechanical keyboard are exceptional and the best I've seen in any gaming laptop. There are some downsides though – the obvious one being the price – but if portability is high on your priority list then the 18″, 3.6KG behemoth of a laptop that is the Titan 18 HX AI may not be for you. What's more, the laptop does suffer from slight thermal throttling when running in its highest performance mode, but not to the level we've seen in previous high end, Intel based gaming laptops.

80% MSI Titan 18 HX Review: Titanic Doesn’t Even Begin to Describe This Gaming Laptop
Source: Gizmodo English EN→zh-CN
Let’s get one thing out of the way before we start this review. MSI’s Titan 18 HX is a hulking, powerful, and all-around excessive gaming laptop, starting at $5,279 for its lowest configuration. It demands much more from your wallet if you want the best possible specs. It’s also a similar price to what you would pay for a full-sized, pre-built desktop with all the fixings. The Titan 18 HX is an ultra-expensive desktop replacement, and when I say that, I mean it in the whole sense of what that term implies—it’s so massive in size and cost, and yet it is the closest you’ll get to having a desktop tower you can schlep from room to room.

大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
