Competing RTX Spark Convertibles
MSI's convertible joins a field of RTX Spark systems from other manufacturers. Microsoft has introduced machines including the Surface Laptop Ultra with a 15-inch mini-LED display, while ASUS has announced RTX Spark models in its creator-oriented ProArt P14 and P16 lines. Dell has used the XPS 16 for its RTX Spark offering, HP has placed the processor inside its larger OmniBook Ultra 16, and Lenovo has taken a convertible approach with its Yoga 9n 2-in-1. Acer has entered the RTX Spark ecosystem with a compact desktop design that does not compete directly with MSI's convertible.
