MSI’s Claw handhelds get an Intel Lunar Lake do-over with a $799 starting price
MSI takes another crack at gaming handhelds.
The Claw 8 brings more significant changes here; its 80-watt-hour battery is a big jump over the original model’s 53 watt hours. Performance-wise, MSI claims the handhelds will have a 113 percent higher peak FPS and 20 percent higher average FPS than its competitors “under identical power conditions.” MSI doesn’t say which competitors it’s referring to, but in Sean’s review, the previous model was outdone by the Steam Deck OLED, Asus ROG Ally Z1E, and the Lenovo Legion Go. Other changes to both handhelds include redesigned Hall effects sticks and triggers, and updated bumpers and d-pad.
