MSI Claw handheld on a dark blue background

MSI is jumping on the bandwagon. AfterAsusand Steam solidified their positions among thebest gaming handheldslast year, the gaming brand is looking to enter the fray. The MSI Claw was announced at CES 2024, bringing the world’s first Meteor  Lake powered device to the market.

The Windows handheld was leaked last week, with today’s showfloor reports confirming the device’s existence, though we still don’t know anything about pricing or availability. Still, should MSI pull it off this could be a new contender in the space.

MSI Claw

Like the Ally, the Claw will be able to run games across a variety of launchers and with its own software to keep all your titles easily accessible in one place. That’s a big draw for Asus’s device compared to the Steam Deck at the moment, so if MSI pulls it off better there could be trouble for Asus fans. Similarly, the Claw offers a 7-inch FHD display running at 120Hz - the same base specs as the Ally and slightly smaller, though higher resolution than the 7.4-inch / 1200x800 screen on the Steam Deck OLED.

We’re still awaiting launch information for the MSI Claw, but we’ll be keeping this page updated as we find out more.
