Claw 8 AI+ A2VM-001US

I was so on the fence between the two. Stats, hardware, and screen size had me leaning towards the MSI 8ai+ I went to my local best buy and was able to demo both of them. I walked out with the XAX 10 minutes later. The weight of the Claw was insane. I'm a decently strong/big guy so I was shocked it

The contenders Legion Go 2 - best screen, table top mode if thats important to you. Very heavy and uncomfortable to hold. Stick position isnt great. Audio isnt great. Fan noise. 720p and 900p look too blurry on a larger screen. Bad software. Loose sticks MSI Claw A8 - 8inch screen is the perfect siz

I miss the Ally X. Software was great. Gyro controls, easy form factor and use. 7 inches though was too small for my approaching 42 year old eyes. Text especially. The MSI Claw 8ai is amazing. Absolute worst software ever though. Like, Legion Space was pretty bad, but Center M is a joke. Handheld Co

Tried ROG XAX and MSI Claw 8AI+ both, thought the performance and screen is superb, the rest is a downer (loosy Sticks, D-Pad, Vibration). On the other side the ROG XAX was great, but the screen just too small. I guess i'm waiting for the next handheld with Intel panther lake then.

What I like:The performance is great – I’m getting about 15% more power in my games. I mainly play RPGs and pixel games. On the ROG Ally, I got around 75–100 FPS, while on the MSI Claw I’m getting 85–120 FPS on high settings. I dont play AAA games on my handhelds like God of War or so. The screen is

I recently sold my Claw 8 AI+ and picked up the XAX today. Although different scenario to your Claw 8 since Intel provides the drivers, the MSI software really isn't great. So far I also prefer the smaller screen for portability reasons, with a less bulky body and nicer joysticks.

Ive been trying to explain this to people for the longest. Everyone bangs on about OLED is the greatest thing ever. Well my lego2 side by side with my MSI claw 8ai+ looks pretty much the same. Of course the blacks are better on an OLED. But can we really justify the price increase for better black l

I had both , msi claw 8ai bad software got annoying lag everytime , its a shame the screen was so nice , but ergo and software made me stay with xbox ally x , these days switch 2 8’’ screen and lightness makes me go back to it , so easy to pick up with grips one of the best handhelds hands down

Bruh, the OLED display on my Lenovo Legion i7 Pro (laptop) absolutely smokes the IPS my MSI Claw 8 AI+. There is no way IPS is better. The only reason why I got the MSI Claw 8AI+ was because the Lenovo handheld was just crazy expensive.

I've got both the Claw 8 AI+ and Legion Go 2 and been testing them both. Starting with the Claw, it does most things right such as: great speakers, decent screen, quiet fans, stays cool, fairly light and easy to carry outside of the house, better X,Y,A,B buttons than the Go 2 cos they're slightly la
