Yeah the Katana series is basically a desktop replacement disguised as laptop lol. For portable RTX 5050 options you might want to check ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15 or maybe Dell XPS 15 if you can find one with discrete graphics - both are way lighter than MSI gaming laptops but still pack decent performa
