Nows the Worst Time to Get a Windows PC Gaming Handheld

2025 should be a huge year for handheld gaming PCs, with all kinds of exciting stuff happening.

MSI is slated to launch its next-gen MSI Claw 8 AI+ around CES 2025 , which takes place at the beginning of January .

Intel 's Lunar Lake APUs are already here, but we most likely won't see a handheld device sporting a Lunar Lake SKU until January 2025 .

AMD 's Z2 Extreme is also preparing to launch handheld gaming chip, the Z1 Extreme , in early 2025 .

If you're interested in AAA gaming, I strongly advise waiting for 2025 's PC gaming handheld lineup.

Current devices struggle with recent AAA games, especially the Steam Deck OLED and LCD , which pack a now pretty dated 4 -core Zen 2 CPU.

The Steam Deck is still an excellent handheld, but not a AAA gaming machine.
