MSI has launched two powerful business laptops in Japan, the Modern 15 H B13M 5039JP and Modern 14 H D13MG 5029JP, offering incredible value with Microsoft Office Home & Business 2024 and a one-year Microsoft 365 Basic subscription included at no extra cost.
This exclusive deal positions these laptops as productivity powerhouses, ideal for students and professionals alike.
Top Features: Office Suite Bundled with Cutting-Edge Hardware
The included software suite grants users access to essential tools like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, along with 100GB of cloud storage via OneDrive. Bundling Microsoft’s premium productivity software elevates these laptops above competitors.
Powered by Intel’s Core i7-13620H processor, both models deliver robust performance for multitasking and business needs. Whether drafting reports, managing presentations, or working collaboratively online, these laptops ensure seamless productivity.
MSI Modern 15 H B13M 5039JP: Large Screen and Full HD Clarity
The Modern 15 H B13M stands out with its 15.6-inch Full HD non-glare LCD display, providing vivid visuals perfect for presentations or content creation.
Specifications include:
- 32GB memory for effortless multitasking
- 512GB NVMe SSD for ample and fast storage
- Windows 11 Home as the operating system
It also boasts versatile connectivity, featuring USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C with video output, three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, HDMI, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3.
However, battery life may be a drawback, lasting just four hours during video playback or up to eight hours on standby, so staying near a power outlet is advisable.
MSI Modern 14 H D13MG 5029JP: Compact and Powerful
For those prioritizing portability, the Modern 14 H D13MG is a smaller alternative with a 14-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) non-glare LCD screen.
Key highlights include:
- Same processor, memory, and storage configuration as the 15-inch model
- Enhanced connectivity with Thunderbolt 4 support alongside USB and HDMI options
Its battery life is a step up, offering six hours during video playback and up to 14 hours in idle mode, making it a more reliable companion for extended on-the-go productivity.
Why Ship with Windows 11 Home Instead of Pro?
Although MSI recommends Windows 11 Pro for business users, these laptops come pre-installed with Windows 11 Home.
This decision may seem surprising given their productivity-first design and software bundle. Offering an upgrade option to Pro would align better with the needs of professionals.
A Trend Worth Expanding Globally?
MSI isn’t the only brand innovating this way—Dynabook also bundles Microsoft productivity tools with select laptops, hinting at a rising trend. While this offer is currently exclusive to Japan, it’s a feature many users globally would welcome.
With its sleek Classic Black design, robust hardware, and premium software included, these MSI laptops redefine productivity in their price range. MSI has not yet disclosed global availability or pricing, leaving international customers eager for updates.
