TechThe MSI Claw EX is the most important handheld since Steam Deck — I still wouldn’t buy one
The Verge’s review praises the MSI Claw 8 EX AI Plus for its next-generation Intel chip, portable design, long battery life, and reliable Windows sleep and wake. It often delivers about 40 percent more 1080p performance than the Xbox Ally X, but its $1,800 price, limited supply, game issues, loud fan, and lingering Windows annoyances make it hard to recommend.
