    Goddamn, at that price I'd buy one just so my Steam Deck has someone to play with when I'm at work.

    The Verge review !!
    Wow ! It could not be worse !!!

    No one should buy an MSI Claw. It’s not technically broken: the first 7-inch Intel Core Ultra handheld gaming PC doesn’t regularly crash or anything like that. But the Claw falls so far short of the competition that it’s effectively dead on arrival.

    In almost every way, the $750 MSI Claw feels like an inferior clone of the Asus ROG Ally — except it costs more, not less! You could get a far better experience while saving hundreds of dollars if you choose a Steam Deck OLED instead.

      i dont know whether it is good or not, but to be fair, that review was written at a $750 USD price point, that is $1200 AUD, this is half that price

          its only $30 extra and it is christmas, if you want it, treat yourself, i am giving you permission to pull the trigger

    Can you just use a USB-C dock/hub with it and use it at a mini PC at home?

    • +1

      Sure, it's a full Windows PC. Just don't expect amazing performance.

    I'll do it for 100

  • How are you supposed to know if there is stock or not?

  • Where did you see this? Can't see it on the Costco website

  • They had them in Casuarina costco in WA. Grabbed one. So far it feels ergonomically well designed.

    One thing is forsure, the storage is light at 512G NVMe.. any on sale atm? 2TB should be goo enough to have fun with a few games. Other then that about a million updates.

    Feels good so far connected to external screen and keyboard. Not sure if thats the way it was intended but it wasnt setup to use on the touch screen off the bat, and i had no choice but to connect externally.

    Once the updates and patches are applied i will install some games and see how she runs.
