MSI has made a PC gaming handheld. Now that only leaves Acer and Razer as the only companies that have yet to make one.

Just got a steam deck OLED last week nd I’m loving it as my 1st PC experience. The claw is looking rough rn but has potential. I’m looking forward to seeing that Orange Pi Neo nd if it’s a real competitor to the steam deck

Congrats on the SD OLED! Yeah. The Claw feels like it's half-baked. I think in time it'll get there. I'm also super curious about the Orange Pi Neo. Can't wait to check it out.

@4xgameenthusiast5014 ай бұрын
It is great that there is a lot of competition in the market building up for the sake of us gamers. That said, I wasn't convinced due to the fact that this uses an Intel APU when it was announced and the more videos I see about the Claw, the less I want one. Also, I have no intention of getting into the hassles that come with a Windows gaming handheld at the moment. I was going to get a Legion Go, but I've now decided to stick with just my Deck as a second handheld is something I don't really need.

"True Gaming, 'cause every other gaming handheld I have does false gaming." Golden! 😂 Also, is it just me or the MSI overlay bears an uncanny resemblance to the one on ROG ally? Everything from the status icons to the functions and features, seem to be exactly the same! Would love to know your thoughts, Rudy.
@baldlyrudy4 ай бұрын
If you're talking about the MSI Center, it's somewhat like it in design aesthetic, but the bare bones layout is a little different. But I'm purely talking about the UX. There are a lot of other ways that MSI took "inspiration" from ASUS and their ROG Ally. It's kinda crazy. 😅
@pastdue71704 ай бұрын
I have a SD and Ally. SD grips sometimes feel to big, but I can comfortably other than reaching buttons as fast as I like. Ally much better reaching buttons but cramps my hands in about an hour. So the call does seem to strike a good balance. I also want to see what Linux be like on the claw as Intel tends to have very good open-source and open standard drivers.

I’ve been waiting on your thoughts on this. I’ve made the decision to just wait for the next iteration of the Steam Deck that Valve is no doubt working on as we speak in some form. And you are absolutely right about the no-case situation, even my TB Stealth Ultra pc controller came with one.

That's probably a wise choice at this point. And I'm definitely excited to see where Valve decides to go with the Steam Deck. Heck yeah. I don't get why they wouldn't include a case at this point.

@@baldlyrudyBy showing a screenshot of someone stating they offered nearly the same performance? Or perhaps by not putting in any effort to do comparisons yourself and stating you can get good fps on the claw, your review is misleading and you were likely paid by MSI to promote their garbage.

@frostybe3r The screenshot was to compare the 135H to the 155H. And no, no one paid me. I bought the unit myself. Thanks for thinking that I was paid by MSI to make this video though.
