Howdy hey, sorry I'm late bit I absolutely LOVE your videos. If you could review the latest redmagic gaming phone that would be epic. Also, do you plan on trying to review the rivian r2 when it comes out in 2026
Hey can you try to play dark and darker. It's free can you try it on the handheld and let me know if the controls work well. I have a Intel arc 770 it runs great on my desktop. I want to buy one of these but I'm on the fence between a steam deck or this.
Awesome review love it man. Crazy that we can play full blown pc games in such a small form factor. It wasn’t so long ago we were playing cut down / simplified games on Switch, PSP etc that were no where near pc or console counterparts 🔥
I've never really wanted a handheld but the MSI claw for some reason really drew me in I guess it's just the looks because I know the internals being all Intel isn't actually as good as amd's options but you can't deny it. Looks sick
Makes me wonder why these updates aren’t integrated before releasing the product so it’s not just disregarded by customers due to horrible performance, but I guess this was the case with most of these PC handhelds
There are almost always deadlines for products whether they be devices, components or games/software. Hit the deadline then deal with the issues after launch is widely (and sadly) standard practice.
I think most Gaming Handheld brands have been through this, but the performance truly gets better and it's a huge gap which is cool! I'd like to get mine.
I'd get this once it becomes more readily available and Intel updates those drivers. I recently got an ARC GPU to update my 1060 and I've been very impressed so far. Wouldn't have gotten it on day one, but I'm very glad that Intel is still updating their gpus. We need more competition in the gaming space.
Go for the asus rog ally… its powerful as hell and beautiful, its been out for like a year now so it has been updated a lot.. im gonna give u an advice, NEVER buy a handheld from day one…. just wait for a couple of months so they can get updated real good.. this is one of the reasons why im advising u to get the rog ally.. it has been optimized a lot since it launched
The air flow USB port and joysticks are easily better then the ROG Ally im worried about the compatibility of intels IGPU tho as i have some problems with AMDS IGPUs as it is
Excellent review. Now confused as to what handheld to choose. Considering the steam deck for its price but I really love the aesthetic and look of the ayaneo 2 compared to all others.
Hi Chris big fan and have a good day and l have been a fan for 2 to 3years now and l hope you hit 1milion subs one day mate and l love how this is all shot on your iPhone 15 pro max 😀🎉
I am thinking of getting one .. Costco has it on sale for $630.00 and they will include a case now that’s a plus .. would like to see you review the Lenovo legion go and see what you think .. also the one that Costco has on sale .. its the 1tb model 😊
I'm not too familiar with computer spects and would like to know how well the lowest budget version of the Claw runs with games. For example, if I were to play Spiderman 2, how well would it run, or the most recent Halo?
Great review , great product but the price is too much I would rather get a console with portable monitor it would still be cheaper and have better display
I am playing on the Steam Deck OLED, and what games it supports is more limited compared to Windows Handhelds, I've accepted the limitations of Steam OS so I can have a better user experience, but I am always on the fence if buying the OLED steam deck was worth it, I was wondering how it stacks up against it?
Tbh the Oled Steam deck is the best option. All these windows handhelds die in 30 minutes and they have a lot of stability issues, (even Rog ally). The fancy refresh rates and high amounts of RAM, is all for show. They don't get more than 50fps on 900p.
There is no doubt that the rog ally z1 extreme is more powerful than steam deck but if you want that ease of use and console like experience, steam deck is the way to go plus if you like to play on battery than you definitely want the steam deck oled.
Like the video! It's convinced me to look at getting one! Massive favour to ask regarding games to try, could you please try horizon forbidden west at some point? Thanks! Keep up the brilliant videos! 👍
This this has no business being as expensive as it is. As a first real attempt by Intel, it should be waaaaay cheaper to get people to try it. It's not ready yet.
Absolutely not worth the price. Compared to the other handheld PC's, the Claw is the worst in terms of performance, battery life and functionality. (Steam Deck>Asus Ally> Legion Go)
06:00 so i can use this device as a desktop PC as welll?? I can connect it to monitor and some wireless keyboard, mouse so it become normal PC and portable desktop PC anywere also handheld console that can be use for programming, CAD design etc... Perfect, instead of laptop now we can prefer this kind of devices maybe?
can I ask? I already see palworld is being played here, I played 4 games, palworld, genshin impact, HSR, and wuthering waves, my question is, can we play all those 3 games in this device? is it also smooth like palworld here too? or maybe one of them are not compatible, like some games can't be played here, I'm not the type to play them all at once, just whenever I got bored I usually played it either on these 4 games in my idle time, my pc nearly reach it's limit since the spaces is the problem, like genshin it nearly 100gb on it's own ^^', so yeah I need to know if this stuff can also played it, this reminds me a lot to my old psp, I'm not an expert in technologies, so yeah I was confused on this one, I also once ask other people but all they say is that I'm a dumb girl for not understanding this ^^
2 hours actually, I 3d printed a powerbank holder for it, And got around 3-5 hour battery, If you dont have a 3d printer, you can buy a holder, or pay someone to 3d print for you
Definitely not, the ROG ally is much better and way cheaper. Just do some research, the msi claw is a poor device in comparison to rog ally or steam deck
Been wondering for a while now...is he purposefully avoiding the Steam Deck? And if so, for what reason? It's hugely conspicuous by it's absence on this channel.
Have a good weekend gamers!

Great review dude
Thanks dude.
Saw these at my local cotco . This was a really well done review and nicely detailed.
I've never really wanted a handheld but the MSI claw for some reason really drew me in I guess it's just the looks because I know the internals being all Intel isn't actually as good as amd's options but you can't deny it. Looks sick

New releases are just beta testing nowadays
I think most Gaming Handheld brands have been through this, but the performance truly gets better and it's a huge gap which is cool! I'd like to get mine.
I have one and it's fantastic. The only downside is that the microphone picks up every button Press you do
It is in fact not fantastic
The ASUS Rog Ally X looks super cool too. I’m a longtime MSI PC components customer, so I may pull the trigger and cop this instead.
u keep motivating people to get this stuff. keep it up bro
Haha, not trying to motivate. Just provide my thoughts on each one.
The graphics that it can push on such a small device is actually insane!
it put the ps5 to shame💀
@@draco2xxhow ?
@brandonmurray6779 ps5 doesn't give us this kind of freedom and performance capabilities
@@draco2xx but it doesn’t advertise it?
Tbh its a growing market and emerging tech. I'm gonna wait awhile more and wait for the tech to allow it to replace my PC before diving into one.
This vid was a banger keep it up 👍
Thanks dude
Love it man, great video as per usual 🔥
I CANT WAITTT... thats it.. i am using goku blacks timering...

Great Video Spawn
Thanks for the support
Nicely done video, but should clarify if it’s sponsored or not at beginning
Thanks for the good video! Def convinced to get the MSI CLAW
love the honest review !!
Only interested in OLED, unless mini led really takes off
I would love to play RDR 2 AND CYBERPUNK ❤🔥
I’m looking to buy one is it worth buying I like handheld gaming
Go for the Asus Ally or Legion Go over this.

Loved FH4, so when you said 5, I was waiting for game play.
Good review dude!
And almost at 1 million subs!
Hey, thanks dude. I appreciate it 🙏
Great video! 🔥
The air flow USB port and joysticks are easily better then the ROG Ally im worried about the compatibility of intels IGPU tho as i have some problems with AMDS IGPUs as it is
Do a comparison video all gaming handhelds vs MSI claw?
I love the Msi claw 🤷🏽♂️
I think it’s great. Just had a bad start at launch.
Another banger of a video, jeep it up, they just keep on getting better
Appreciate it! Thank you 🙏
Excellent review. Now confused as to what handheld to choose. Considering the steam deck for its price but I really love the aesthetic and look of the ayaneo 2 compared to all others.
wait until the switch 2 release and choose the best for you
Get the rog ally its amazing
@@ladygaia4782 there is a new version rog ally x better battery and other improvments will announce in june
@@فهد_الحربي this is a great idea. Thanks.
Even sponser streamer doesnot review in these detail 🗿🔥
Hi Chris big fan and have a good day and l have been a fan for 2 to 3years now and l hope you hit 1milion subs one day mate and l love how this is all shot on your iPhone 15 pro max 😀🎉
Great review 👍👍the bezel so large
Looks very nice, I went for LCD steam deck for £300, much cheaper and does the job
Nice one 👍
Can you do a video showing off Tekken 8? I'd really like to see how it compares to Steam Deck and ROG Ally.
I am thinking of getting one .. Costco has it on sale for $630.00 and they will include a case now that’s a plus .. would like to see you review the Lenovo legion go and see what you think .. also the one that Costco has on sale .. its the 1tb model 😊

I have a SD oled, an Aly and a Lego, I think I'll pass on this one M8
yeh I think you're doing OK haha
@@SpawnPoiint haha, I love handhelds, what can I say. Love the videos as well M8, very clean set up
Whats the best for you? I think Im buying a Steam deck oled
That looks Fire 🔥🔥
Great review , great product but the price is too much I would rather get a console with portable monitor it would still be cheaper and have better display
Thanks for watching 🙏
@@SpawnPoiintyour welcome sir , thank you for making such interesting videos too 😂❤
Were you playing these games on 1080p? And how many watts???
It is massive !!!
Haha it’s quite big
I’d like to see how Diablo IV and Elden Ring play on it and perhaps Lords of the Fallen.
Can it run Crisis?

The FPS depends on which game you play. You are right for most of the part@@PhoenixKeebs
@@PhoenixKeebsi have the ally and it even reaches 120 fps on so many games so I don’t really know what you’re talking about
There is no doubt that the rog ally z1 extreme is more powerful than steam deck but if you want that ease of use and console like experience, steam deck is the way to go plus if you like to play on battery than you definitely want the steam deck oled.
The msi logo at the front I don't like ngl.. I stoll prefer the steam deck oled
this looks fire
Yeh I’m impressed. It’s on the right track.
@@SpawnPoiint fr bro
also keep on doing what u do bro
really wish it comes with amd version
Like the video! It's convinced me to look at getting one! Massive favour to ask regarding games to try, could you please try horizon forbidden west at some point? Thanks! Keep up the brilliant videos! 👍
I’d like to play Dave the diver on it as I feel it’ll be the perfect game for a handheld
I like the handheld device
Please do a vid of tip and trick for Xbox series and one of the legion go, Idk which to buy😢
I Hope It's On Amazon
these pc handhelds seems to just be releasing every 2 weeks, i can barely keep up💀
How do you compare it to the ROG ally?
Can we geta full house tour 🙏🙏❤
why frames are so low!! with such a great processor
But someone said that the huge vent isnt actually vent, the actual vent is on top corner that is small
Random Questiom: Where did you find that Final Cut title you use?
*Hey mate, watched an old video of yours about using the iphone to do your videos, are you still using the iphone or gone to DLSR, TIA*
Still using an iPhone today :)
@@SpawnPoiint Wow, that's crazy, doing really well! Hard to tell it's footage from a smartphone!
I already have a Rog Ally. I'd rather get this than the X.
Btw youtube didn’t notify me about ur vid
Can you remote desktop to iPad if you forgot it in other bag
Ally for the win
Cool review i'd probably play like spider man 2 or something
I literally have stick drift on my ally 😂 I’m pretty sure they have the same sticks as this claw
Like this comment if you wish you could afford this
Hope that soon you can get something like this. I have a steam deck basic $400 model and it’s amazing bro. Keep saving it will be well worth it 🔥🔥
Get a life
Broke boy, I have 2 legion go’s 1tb and a 512gb rog ally extreme z, get a job loser
@@Paghmani1sherright ? What a loser.. I just spent 6 thousand on my personal rtx 4090 oc build
I'd save for a 2nd handsteam deck instead lol
The rog seems like a better option
Legion go or this claw?
Bloody good review mate. I'll buy one of this bastard once I get money from my tax return after the end of this month
Could you test out Warhammer 3 total war, medium graphics, ultra unit scale?
You never told us how much it cost
This this has no business being as expensive as it is. As a first real attempt by Intel, it should be waaaaay cheaper to get people to try it. It's not ready yet.
Yes
Finally an intel based handheld. Def going to pick this one
Why haven’t you reviewed the steam deck yet?
whats better this one or asus rog ally or asus rog ally X?????????????
Absolutely not worth the price. Compared to the other handheld PC's, the Claw is the worst in terms of performance, battery life and functionality. (Steam Deck>Asus Ally> Legion Go)
The latest updates have made a serious jump in performance. But it is still expensive.
great! I am looking forward to the Xbox handheld to see what it offers.
06:00 so i can use this device as a desktop PC as welll?? I can connect it to monitor and some wireless keyboard, mouse so it become normal PC and portable desktop PC anywere also handheld console that can be use for programming, CAD design etc... Perfect, instead of laptop now we can prefer this kind of devices maybe?
Can i see the screen outside too?(bc on nintendo swich i cant)
Can I play any games on there without wifi?
i miss the days when we would sat all rainbow and feel natural
i dont like how the right buttons are over the anolog far to high so is the d pad
Is this worth it if I have an OLED steam deck? Love my deck but there are a few games I'd like to play but just can't on the deck.
I'm in the same boat,just going to wait and see what the Ally X is like,reveal is June 2nd I believe.
@@nathanjones1008 yeah I'll see how the ally x performs at launch. Hopefully better than the claw and og ally did
Are you able to install ps plus?
can you review 1ex player pro 8840U version
High on life

Great video i would love to play some forza 5 on that thing
cna you connect a keyboard and mouse to it?
Niceeee
$700 retail price for an hour of battery life sounds like quite the rip off 👎
2 hours actually,
I 3d printed a powerbank holder for it,
And got around 3-5 hour battery,
If you dont have a 3d printer, you can buy a holder, or pay someone to 3d print for you
So portable pc ?
dose it play eny pc game as well as steam games also can it play android games
Definitely not, the ROG ally is much better and way cheaper. Just do some research, the msi claw is a poor device in comparison to rog ally or steam deck
Fax
I have the Ally too 🫡
@@SpawnPoiint some of us can only afford to choose one option, so might as well let them know before they waste any money🤷♂️
Legion clears both
I own both, the claw is better than the ally 100% and I’d say the steam deck is slightly more balanced and optimized software wise
Review the oled steam deck please!
I really should do that too
@@SpawnPoiint thank you king 👑

Yeh good idea. I still use it too.
Its streams ps5 games from your ps5 decently depending on your home network. There’s a review :)
Good
