MSI has brought a rare collector’s laptop to the United States with the Prestige 13 AI+ Ukiyo-e Edition. This limited-run machine sells for $1,999 and can be purchased only at Best Buy. With just 700 numbered units planned for release, once inventory is gone there will be no restock.
At just 2.18 pounds, the Prestige 13 AI+ Ukiyo-e Edition is light enough to carry anywhere but still delivers serious performance. It uses an Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor alongside Intel Arc graphics, giving it the muscle for both creative work and everyday productivity.
The 13.3-inch OLED screen offers a 2.8K resolution of 2880×1800 with HDR True Black 500 certification, and the system includes 32GB of LPDDR5x memory and a 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD. Windows 11 Pro comes preinstalled, and Wi-Fi 7 connectivity is supported out of the box.
What sets this edition apart is its handcrafted lid. MSI partnered with Okadaya, a historic name in Yamanaka lacquerware, to reinterpret Hokusai’s famous Great Wave off Kanagawa using traditional maki-e lacquer techniques combined with gold leaf. Each lid is finished by artisans, so no two units look exactly the same. The design also features Loong: Nia, MSI’s original dragon-inspired character created to represent elegance and curiosity.
Exclusivity is emphasized with laser engraving on the bottom of the chassis, giving each laptop a unique serial number. Buyers also receive a matching wireless mouse, mouse pad, and protective sleeve that carry the same Ukiyo-e style artwork, making the set feel complete.
Between the slim build, premium components, and cultural artistry, the Prestige 13 AI+ Ukiyo-e Edition is equal parts technology and collectible. U.S. buyers who want to secure one of the 700 units can find it now at Best Buy for $1,999.99
