The MSI CLAW is already available in some places but will be coming to most of the world in later March.  There will be 3 versions available:

  1. Entry level MSI Claw A1M featuring an an Intel Core Ultra 5 135H CPU with integrated Arc graphics and 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and a 512GB SSD. $700

ASUS ROG Ally 2 Coming in 2024

The ASUS India Vice President of the Consumer and Gaming division has stated in a conservation with Techlusive: “We most likely will launch a second generation [handheld gaming console] this year.  We will still keep the Windows features, but we will focus more on gaming.”

Given some of the issues with the first generation with the SD card malfunctioning due to heat we’re happy to see this unit living on in a second generation.
