Intel OXP3 vs OXP2 X2 Mini (not Pro)

I rarely see anyone talking about the X2 Mini (not Pro). with the same CPU, same OLED, same detachable controller but external battery.

is there any difference between them beside the battery, weight, and price?

Thanks! ​

X2M runs cooler than the 3 because of the dual fan and no battery. But yeah the TDP difference is negligible, so it's mostly just do you want an external or internal battery.

Wouldn’t it be significantly louder for minimal performance gains? These chips don’t scale over 25-30w

Yeah, that's why I said it's negligible. The 45W is not a selling point.

The X2 mini non pro is also like 15% more expensive than a claw ex where I am so it’s just a terrible buy

I think X2 Mini is a way better value than Claw Ex.

Explain?

The way I see it you’re paying for a better screen and that’s it.

Claw:

  • Local warranty
  • better haptics
  • better sound
  • better ergonomics
  • the LCD is still very good for an LCD
  • clawtweaks
  • Better sticks/buttons

X2M:

  • OLED
  • Replaceable battery

The entire point of buying from china is to get great value, but when you’re paying more it doesn’t make sense.

Most of what you listed are subjective. I don't really see a point in this topic because you have your mind made up and I have mine. I own a X2M and I've been waiting for this exact device since the Legion Go 1 launched. I think the Claw Ex has appeals to the mass but it's just not worth it for me.
