Content supplied by MSI
MSI is launching its latest Summit Series 2-in-1 laptops aimed at business professionals and those seeking a stylish productivity tool. The new Summit E13 Flip Evo (plus Summit E16 Flip) and the MSI Pen were announced in January at CES where they won “Best of CES 2021” convertible laptop awards and a CES Innovation Award (respectively). MSI is also launching a new USB-C docking station to suite the new, normal, hybrid-office-WFH dynamic.
The Summit Series chassis has been enhanced by the introduction of a 16:10 format screen that reflects the Classical, Golden Ratio, artistic aesthetic to ensure a perspective that is simultaneously pleasing to the eye and a boost to productivity owing to the increase in screen real estate.
The Summit E13 Flip Evo laptop is available in Ink-Black or Pure-White variants, both of which have been adorned by a bespoke, CNC-machining process and diamond-cut edges to provide a sleeker, premium look than most other business laptops are capable of. It’s sophisticated enough to fit into any design-oriented office without looking ostentatious in a boardroom. It also features an ergonomic 360-degree hinge for variable working scenarios.
The Summit E13 Flip Evo has also been verified by the Intel Evo platform to ensure the best performance and portability. Featuring the latest 11th Gen, Intel Core i7 processor and Intel Iris Xe graphics, it delivers heavyweight performance that’s up to 10 per cent superior compared to similar-tier laptops. It also offers an astonishing 20-hour battery life for amazing mobility and is the very first laptop to support the latest Wi-Fi 6E technology which ensures network connectivity remains smooth and stable – even when sharing with numerous users.
Other innovations include Thunderbolt 4 which allows you to quick-charge your devices and transfer data at a whopping 40 Gbps and PCIe Gen 4 to boost the performance, reliability and efficiency of storage.

Business users will be reassured that their confidential information is secured by a hardware-based TPM 2.0 module. In addition to this, security issues manifesting through the increased reliance upon web conferencing are addressed by the Summits’ webcam which provides unique, triple protection courtesy of an indicator light, an on/off hotkey and a useful physical switch on the side of the laptop. Other innovations include MSI’s A.I. Noise Cancellation technology that enhances both audio and video performance.
The new, powerful 16-inch Summit Series
The Summit Series also comes with in a new, larger version, the Summit E16 Flip. This is the thinnest convertible device in the 16-inch, 2-in-1 laptop market. In addition to all of the features of the E13 Flip Evo, the Summit E16 Flip is equipped with the latest Nvidia graphics – making it ideal for enthusiasts, creators and gamers who need it to handle heavy-computing workloads.
The Summit E16 Flip also sports a new MSI-exclusive thermal design called, “Dynamic Cooler Boost.” This technology only produces 35dB sound even when the CPU is under full load: competitor laptops typically generate 45 to 60dB!
Meet the new MSI Pen
The new MSI Pen is another 2021 CES award winner. The minimalistic, all-metal design is fabricated to the proportions of a fountain pen. It offers 4,096-levels of pressure sensitivity and supports the MPP 2.0 protocol to provide a more-stable connection. It also doubles as a presentation remote and you can customize the function of its integrated button. Usefully, battery life is displayed on-screen.
New USB-C Docking Station Gen 2
The new normal means that many office-based business professionals will spend significant time working in multiple locations. To assist with this challenge, MSI’s new USB-C Docking Station Gen 2 makes it simple to sit down and plug-in to both home and office-based workspaces while helping to reduce the mess created by wires. It can connect to three, 4K displays and offers five additional USB ports for enhanced connectivity.
