The MSI Claw was shown off last month at CES 2024, and it will be one of the first handhelds that utilize an Intel APU instead of an AMD. There are a lot of questions about how it will perform to the other handhelds out there, I know I am curious, but it seems pre-orders are starting to open up, starting with the UK!
Starting today, you can officially preorder the MSI Claw over on Currys. There are two options to choose from, a version with an Intel Core Ultra 5 and a 512gb SSD (699 pounds) and the Intel Core Ultra 7 with 1tb SSD (799 pounds). Both of these say they will be delivered by the release date, which is listed as March 20th of this year. If you are looking for power that will be close to the most powerful devices out now, I would recommend going with the Ultra 7, but the battery life with Windows and an Intel APU does worry me a bit.
Considering it’s about 1 month from the supposed launch, I can see the US following suit with preorders later today, or possibly within the next few days. Recently, MSI launched an interactive guide to the MSI Claw, which explains its features. But, as always, it’s wonderful seeing how the handheld PC market is growing!
