Our Verdict

MSI Prestige 14 Evo (2023)

ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (2023)

The ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (2023) is better than the MSI Prestige 14 Evo (2023) for most uses. The ASUS provides a better user experience overall; it has a sharper, more colorful OLED display and a better keyboard, touchpad, and webcam. However, the MSI is available with faster H-series CPUs and doesn't throttle as much, making it a better option for more demanding workloads.
