The MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ console is also set to go on sale on 23 June 2026, which is about 4 days from today, but what we know about it right now is that it will only be available in the United States. So, no Malaysia release dates just yet.
Personally, we feel the console could be overpriced for what it has to offer. However, that could change because the official price and Malaysian release date for the MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ are still unknown. What are your thoughts on the news? Feel free to leave your comments below.
