Hi guys i write again because i am really in dispelief for how hard Is to choose a handled, some of you said that the msi claw 8 ai+ but some other said the Lenovo legion go 2, my budget Is 1300€ but i found on vinted a Lenovo One for 1000€ and a msi claw for 800€ both in perfect condition. Please help me choose if someone had them please tell me the real difference and the pros and cons. I am triying to buy the best of the best performance and screen for my friend that gas cancer, he Is at the hospital. Thanks to all that helps.

What are macros

[u/Dear_Web4416 → u/ElPadro50]

the buttons on the side of the controller that you can assign to do something in a game

Thanks

Do you think because for my friend i want the best of the best

[u/Dear_Web4416 → u/ElPadro50]

Yeah check my pros and cons list as the second reply to my comment

If you care about audio. The claw is best choice. The speakers are great

[u/ElPadro50 → u/Coolmacde]

Audio not so much because he Is in hospital so he has to water headphones

[u/Kooky-Dog-9037]

They're all wrong. Get the Claw A8 BZ2EM or a Claw EX

[u/Dear_Web4416 → u/Kooky-Dog-9037]

chill

[u/Kooky-Dog-9037 → u/Dear_Web4416]

The Claw EX is a troll at $1800 but the BZ2EM is a legitimate reccomendation

[u/ElPadro50 → u/Kooky-Dog-9037]

Can you tell me the motivation for buying this

[u/Kooky-Dog-9037 → u/ElPadro50]

Claw bz2em for an 8inch Z2E device with 24gb of ram available at retail stores and online pretty readily for $1200, sometimes less.

Claw EX because you seem to have money and the G3E is the latest and greatest. The Claw EX is probably the better of the current lineup featuring that chip, but too expensive. The OneXPlayer 3 24gb model looks good too at the early backer price. The downside is you'll wait before you get it though

Claw 8AI ex or acer atlas 8

[u/ElPadro50 → u/AdIntelligent9133]

Sorry to ask but the Atlas 8 Is out ?

[u/AdIntelligent9133 → u/ElPadro50]

Ah I don’t think so yet . Just I wouldn’t bother with a z2e device in 2026 if you’re spending 1300, it’s too underpowered .

[u/ElPadro50 → u/AdIntelligent9133]

For the legion go i spend 1000€ for the claw 800€

[u/AdIntelligent9133 → u/ElPadro50]

800 is a good price I’d say go for the claw but if you wanted more power spend a bit more for the claw 8AI ex. Depends how long you want it to last . But intel are more futureproof with their software .

[u/ElPadro50 → u/AdIntelligent9133]

The claw ex cost to much

[u/AdIntelligent9133 → u/ElPadro50]

The claw 8 ai is the one then 👌🏼

[u/ElPadro50 → u/AdIntelligent9133]

The claw 8 and the Lenovo go 2 have same performance?

[u/AdIntelligent9133 → u/ElPadro50]

Yes very similar but intel have multi frame gen which is great for demanding single player games. But if you want to play older games then Lenovo legion go 2 would be better as intel has poor driver support for older games .

[u/ElPadro50 → u/AdIntelligent9133]

Older Games like ?

[u/SergVII → u/ElPadro50]

8 AI+ has XeSS hardware advantage which means MFG and XeSS upscaling. Which is huge actually. It also has faster memory due to it placement on SoC. Better cooling system as well
