I tried MSI's Windows PC handheld - now I'm wondering if gaming laptops should even exist
Briefly

Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch revolutionized portable gaming, prompting other companies to follow suit, including MSI. Its first handheld, the Claw A1M, received mixed reviews for battery life and graphics. Responding to feedback, MSI improved its design in the new Claw 8 AI+, which features a larger eight-inch FHD+ touchscreen with a 120Hz refresh rate. However, its weight makes it less portable, and although it offers a unique two-tone look, the color might not appeal to everyone. It's an ongoing evolution in handheld gaming, pushing the envelope beyond previous limits.
The MSI Claw 8 AI+ improves on its predecessor with a unique design and enhanced display, but weight and color scheme may still pose challenges for some consumers.
The new Claw 8 features an impressive eight-inch FHD+ display and a 120Hz refresh rate, offering users a standout visual experience in handheld gaming.

While the Claw 8 aims to address previous criticisms regarding battery life and graphics, challenges around portability persist due to its increased weight.
