MSI Claw A1M 1TB - £300 price drop, now worth buying? (revisit)

The MSI Claw didn't get a great reception when it launched - but they have cut the prices twice in 2024. So when they asked us if we could take a look at it now with the 1TB version priced at £499, https://tinyurl.com/2bmctkjr we thought it might be an interesting video.

This is the confusing bit - when this hand held launched - the 512GB version was £699 and the 1TB version was £799.https://tinyurl.com/27ron8d6. MSI dropped the prices by £100 earlier this year and now the 1TB has had a further £200 price cut.

Just be aware you get the right version (1TB), as Currys also list the 512gb version at the same £499 price (as of 11th November 2024) https://tinyurl.com/24osyxh2.

Is it ideal as a Christmas gift now for a family member (or very good friend) or are you best avoiding it completely. Our guy Mat, a hardcore PC gamer - took a look, having never used one before. The hope is to give you a fresh perspective on this somewhat controversial handheld from MSI.
