Personal AI, Now in a Premium 2-in-1

At the center of the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ is the NVIDIA RTX Spark , a new superchip that combines an NVIDIA Grace CPU, and a Blackwell RTX GPU. It brings the NVIDIA CUDA platform—the global standard for AI development —to a more mobile form factor. With up to 1 petaflop of FP4 AI performance, it gives creators and developers a powerful local environment for AI agents, model prototyping, coding, and content creation.

Built for the agentic future, the system turns the PC from a tool into a teammate. Local AI agents can run tasks, generate assets, and help write code on demand, while users remain focused on the work they care most about.

Keeping supported AI workloads local improves privacy, reduces recurring cloud costs, and speeds up responses by avoiding network delays. RTX Spark also accelerates creation and gaming with technologies like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS, and NVIDIA Reflex.

*Actual benefits vary by model, software, configuration, connectivity, and usage.

Up to 128GB of Unified Memory for Bigger Local Workflows

The Prestige N16 Flip AI+ is available with up to 128GB of unified memory shared by the CPU and GPU. This large memory pool helps users work with bigger AI models, complex 3D projects up to 90GB in size, and high-resolution media, while keeping multiple demanding applications simultaneously loaded.

Efficient, Responsive, and Ready to Work

NVIDIA RTX Spark is the most power-efficient RTX chip ever made, bringing lasting performance to slim laptops. Paired with the Prestige N16 Flip AI+'s 99.9Wh battery and instant-on responsiveness, this efficiency lets users move quickly from standby into meetings, sketches, development environments, and agentic workflows with great performance on or off the wall.

UA Creator-Grade Canvas That Adapts to Every Workflow

The Prestige N16 Flip AI+ complements its advanced performance with a 16-inch UHD+ Tandem OLED touchscreen engineered for both creative precision and immersive entertainment. With more than 1,000 nits of peak brightness, 100% DCI-P3 color coverage, Calman Verification, Delta E <1 color accuracy, and variable refresh rate support, the display delivers exceptional contrast, lifelike color, and fluid motion for professional content creation, entertainment, and gaming.

RTX Spark is optimized by the applications creators already rely on. DaVinci Resolve leverages 5th generation Tensor Cores to accelerate color grading and AI-powered editing tools. Blender utilizes DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction for real-time path tracings in the CYCLES viewport Adobe Premiere Pro taps the Blackwell architecture's NVENC and NVDEC engines to speed up video exports. And ComfyUI runs local diffusion workflows with NVFP4 acceleration for faster video generation.

Among the first wave of RTX Spark Windows laptops announced, the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ stands out as a 2-in-1 convertible with a touchscreen and dedicated pen support. Its 360-degree hinge transitions seamlessly between laptop, tablet, tent, and presentation modes. Included at no extra cost, the MSI Nano Pen features MSI's patented design and turns the display into a precise canvas for note-taking, annotation, sketching, and creative work. A purpose-built recess beneath the chassis keeps the pen secure and charged, so it stays with the laptop and is ready whenever inspiration strikes.

A spacious MSI Action Touchpad—53% larger than the previous generation—adds customizable gesture zones that streamline navigation and multitasking. A built-in SD Card Reader helps creators move photos and footage directly from cameras and media, while the quad-speaker system completes a premium experience designed for creation, collaboration, productivity, and entertainment wherever work takes you.

Now Available for Pre-Order Through MSI-Certified Partners

The MSI Prestige N16 Flip AI+ is now available through MSI official stores and authorized retail and channel partners, with availability varying by market.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the Prestige N16 Flip AI+?

The Prestige N16 Flip AI+ is MSI's first laptop powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark and the only 2-in-1 convertible in the platform's first announced laptop wave. It combines local AI and RTX capabilities, with up to 128GB of unified memory, Windows 11 on Arm, a 16-inch touchscreen, and a 360-degree design.

*Specifications and availability may vary by region.

What does 128GB of unified memory enable?

The shared memory pool gives the CPU and GPU room for largeAI models, complex creative projects, and several demanding applications at once. This helps users keep more of their work local without shrinking projects or moving them to the cloud.

Why run AI locally?

For supported workflows, local AI can keep your data private as local files never leave the device. Local AI can reduce or eliminate recurring cloud costs, and respond faster by avoiding network delays. Results vary by model, software, configuration, and usage.

Is the Prestige N16 Flip AI+ also suitable for creators and gamers?

Yes. RTX Spark is one PC that does both — accelerating creation and gaming in the same slim package, from AI and video workflows to ray tracing and DLSS. The color-accurate OLED touchscreen, bundled pen, SD Card Reader, spacious Action Touchpad, and flexible 2-in-1 modes support both creation and entertainment.
