MSI PRO 24X 10M All-in-One PC Review

A Closer Look

First things first, you need to install the stand. It’s a simple V-shape design that attached with a single thumbscrew. It’s super easy to mount and looks fantastic too.

The monitor its self looks superb too. It features a razer thin bezel around the top and sides, and a pretty slim bit of trim on the bottom edge too.

If you weren’t told it was a whole system, you wouldn’t know from the front. However, there are clues around the back with a busy I/O panel in the bottom corner.

Some ventilation is located on the left and right sides of the monitor at the back.

It’s not a huge amount, but this is a low-power and efficient setup, so it’s all it should really need for silent operation.

The connectivity is pretty decent too, with dual LAN giving you options like fast networking and some DAS/NAS storage devices. You get HDMI out so you can break out a second monitor too. Plus, four USB ports directly on the back.

However, you get an additional two USB 3.0 ports on the side, as well as audio jacks and the power button.

Kensington lock, as this thing is pretty compact, anyone could take it away and put it on their desk… or on eBay.

The stand has a quick release system that doesn’t require tools. However, you also get VESA mounting holes so you can use your own stand, wall mount, etc.

It uses an external PSU block, much like a laptop, so it just has a simple jack on the rear of the panel.

A HDD tray that can slide out allowing for easy upgrades of the storage drives. It’s not a hot-swap bay though, so do shut the system down first.

As for the panel, it looks pretty clean. There’s a very slim bezel and a nice soft matte finish that diffuses light really well. I would point out that it’s REALLY bright in here today, and the curtains next to me (on my left) have the sun really pounding them, so this is impressive light diffusion on the panel.

Aside from the chunky bit at the bottom, the rest of the panel is really thin. For ergonomics, you can’t change the height, but you can tilt it a few degrees forwards.

And to a greater extent backwards. To turn it side to side, you basically turn the whole thing, stand included. However, it’s pretty lightweight and that’s easily done.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
