    The Claw 135 is a decent unit

    While many compare this to the Ally X, it is really comparable to the OG Ally as both units are first gen. I chose the 135 over the 155 because the I5 has two less cores and leaves more power for the GPU side of the chip. Sound is good and display is great, it stays cool so I don't have to worry about fried SD cards. The ergos are just right and the Hall effect sticks and triggers mean failures will be less of a problem over time. The only con I have is the ARC GPU will sometimes stutter but with newer drivers, this is becoming less of a problem. Overall after updates, it plays whatever I throw at it, but I mostly play older titles and have a backlog that this is helping me trim down. If you are looking to get one and play old games, get it on sale. I think the A1M AI+ with the 258V APU will run rings around this one as it has the Battlemage GPU and is reviewing well.

    One of the greatest gaming laptops out there. It plays games that looks great. It has windows 11. And it plays movies. A must buy from best buy.

    Hey, warranty set up

     The only problem with MSI claw they don’t have a warranty set up so if you buy it you’ll risk your chance without any warranty that means having one year warranty will not cover so that’s my risk and plus it’s a 120 Hz panel. I want 144 Hz panel and then I’ll buy it, so pretty much it’s garbage then just buy the Lenovo legion go because it’s better plus you can plug an external graphic card getting more performance by using a USB C 4  port
