msi claw a1m (ultra7) vs asus rog xbox ally

Keep the MSI Claw A1M unless you specifically need Linux support. The ROG Ally Z1E (white model) suffers from similarly poor battery life, with most AAA games lasting around an hour. The joysticks aren’t hall effect like those on the MSI Claw A1M, making them prone to stick drift. The SD card slot i

MSI Claw A1M kullanan var mı ?

Bende de hem MSI Claw A1M i7 hem de XAX(Xbox Ally X) var. Bozulmaya meyilli olduğuna dair hiçbir şey kendi adıma duymadım. Hatta malzeme kalitesi XAX’ten bariz şekilde daha iyi. XAX elimde sıktığımda gıcırdarken Claw taş gibi bir hissiyat veriyor. Joystick ve tetikler de hall effect olduğundan daha
