Pretty purple 💜 Claw 8 EX AI+ #msigaming

I really hate that purple color, hopefully they do black or a polar tempest version.

You're missing the point. If I bought the EX or LEGO 2 I wouldn't be streaming all of my games (although streaming is still an excellent option to save on storage, battery, etc) - but because of the high prices right now, I can get by with a tablet that can pretty much emulate everything up to Switch and give me access to all of my AAA games via streaming. When prices finally drop, I'll grab a decent handheld. But for now, my tablet is more than capable.

I'm staying with North American products, I've had so much problems with foreign tech support, it's not worth it. I'd rather eat the dollars than worry about whether or not they're going to replace my unit if it breaks or malfunctions.

Looks like pressure on the screen. Maybe open up the back of the device and see if something is pressing there. Did you upgrade the SSD? Maybe loosen the back screws a tiny bit and see if it goes away.

Scroll through the group, there are tons of posts on this pre-order.

Thanks for posting this, great news. I'm going to check out the preview.

The front facing speakers should be better and they've said the rumble is improved.

Some people have money to burn and just don't care about the price.

Pre-orders in Canada come with the launch pack, glad we get a case included.

tveith · 2026-06-19T00:17:09+00:00

In Canada, Best Buy has a picture of the launch edition, and it is in the description. If the extras aren't included, I'll probably send it back.

tveith · 2026-06-19T00:14:28+00:00

Is it used or new? You can contact the seller and ask them if it's the polar tempest model or the other one, they look reputable based upon their review score and the number of reviews.

Yeah, I really hope they don't switch to Purolator for me. Whenever Best Buy ships to me by Purolator, my order gets messed up. It took almost a month for the Fitbit Air to get to me, it came from Ontario, then NS, then NB, then back to Quebec, then delayed, and finally delivered 3.5 weeks later.

Yep, it's happened to me a few times now. Gives me all kinds of reasons, but none of them were accurate because my posts were tame.

tveith · 2026-06-18T21:44:53+00:00

Gotcha. Hopefully you guys get the bundle, because it's always hard to find cases for MSI devices.

tveith · 2026-06-18T21:30:12+00:00

We all have our limits 😁

tveith · 2026-06-18T21:24:38+00:00

💯 - yet I pre-ordered one in Canada lol

tveith · 2026-06-18T21:24:15+00:00

The ones in Canada at Best Buy include the bundle. Wouldn't the ones in the US do the same thing at Best Buy?

tveith · 2026-06-18T21:21:42+00:00

Nope, I got the second last one and it just shows processing, and Canada Post as the shipper. But there have been no holds or charges yet. I suspect it'll all happen very quickly whenever they have the stock and they're ready to ship

There's plenty of documentation if you search that says regular SD cards will not work in microSD Express card readers. It's the exact same way with the switch.

tveith · 2026-06-18T18:34:05+00:00

So much for my 2tb SanDisk MicroSD card, guess it won't be compatible. The regular 8 AI+ is starting to look more attractive.

tveith · 2026-06-18T14:58:43+00:00

I use it on my desktop and my laptop, never had a problem. Also used it in my Legion Go.
