Our Verdict

MSI WS76 (2021)

Dell Precision 5570 (2022)

The MSI WS76 (2021) and the Dell Precision 5570 (2022) are both excellent Windows mobile workstations. The MSI is available with more powerful discrete GPUs, but it's much bulkier than the Dell, so it's harder to carry around. The Dell has a more comfortable keyboard and a much larger touchpad; its main downside is that it only has three USB-C ports, whereas the MSI has a much wider selection with USB-As, USB-Cs, an HDMI 2.1, and an Ethernet port.
