A few days back, MSI started selling MSI Claw from its official website. Now the company has launched its handheld gaming console MSI Claw in India. India pricing starts at Rs. 68990. MSI Claw was initially announced at CES 2024 in January.
Being true, I never expected the official launch of Claw in India. It feels good when global companies consider India as their primary market.
MSI Claw is similar to other handheld consoles. It includes D-pad, XYAB buttons, joysticks, and triggers with hall effect. The device has a 7-inch FHD display with a 120Hz variable refresh rate. It packs Intel Core Ultra processors with 16GB RAM and up to 1TB storage.
