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

Tldr: tested several gaming handhelds trying to run Oblivion Remastered on the go. Key takeaways: • Steam Deck – great for older/backlog games, struggles with new AAA titles • Legion Go S Z1E – best all-rounder for most people, buy used for $500-700 • ROG Ally X – best for travelers, but the 7” scre

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'll accept the downvotes OP because this is essentially the MSI Claw 8AI sub. The objective answer is that the A8 is more ergonomic, whatever your hand shape or size. It is both lighter and has actual grips to hold onto it.

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

I tried it on the claw 8 ai+ as the app in Xbox mode. When I first launched it it worked ok but is really sensitive to stick input which is what I mostly use to navigate. After like the 4th or 5th time starting my controller became a mouse like it was in desktop mode even though it wasn’t. For this

As others have stated I wouldn't bother with Winhanced on the MSI Claw 8AI +, at least not yet. I've tried it on and off for the past 6 months and often freezes, controller becomes a mouse pointer, games dont show up, TDP doesn't work etc. Its just not a priority for them, given its a somewhat uniqu

You see lots of this online. People really want Intel to become a competitor to AMD in handhelds which is a good thing. But they also glaze over a lot of stuff comparing the devices. Generally speaking XBAX has better price, availability (here in the US anyway), triggers, speakers, cooling system, a

I tried both: I ended up sending the Claw back and keeping the Xbox Ally X. On paper, really, the Claw is better. If I just sat down and picked up a game, side by side, imo, the Claw is better. It has a much better screen (although the Ally X screen has some better VRR), it runs everything great. Bu
