By comparison, Apple’s laptop is a mere .16" and .76", respectively.
The outer lid is black plastic with an embossed MSI logo in white.
All of the ports use chrome accents which look slightly tacky in my opinion.
Our review sample came equipped with an 8-cell battery.
The keyboard on the X340 leaves a lot to be desired.
The layout is fine, but some keys are shorter than usual.
I would be able to overlook those things, but not the quality of the keyboard itself.
We noticed a lot of flex even without fully depressing keys.
MSI definitely earns some negative marks here for not paying enough attention to the typing experience.
The touchpad is subtly offset to the left.
It is molded from the same piece of plastic as the deck and is slightly inset.
