The flagship laptop from MSI is of course the latest Titan. The new MSI Titan 18 HX leverages an Intel Core Ultra 9 HX series processor and RTX 50 series graphics, up to an RTX 5090. With a total of 270W of peak performance to work with, you should manage to achieve true desktop replacement level performance in a portable package. Advanced vapor chamber cooling and dedicated SSD thermal design allows for sustained peak performance.
The MSI Raider and Vector series laptops are all getting an upgrade too, with up to Ryzen 9000HX or Intel Core Ultra 200HX series processors and RTX 50 graphics. MSI Stealth laptops will have the option of an AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processor or Intel Core Ultra 200HX CPU and are CoPilot+ certified.
MSI is introducing a brand-new line of laptops this year too. The MSI Venture and Venture Pro series laptops are aimed at business and productivity, offering screen sizes up to 17-inches, powerful CPU options and, in the Venture Pro models, you will also have the option of a discrete GPU. MSI has also created an exclusive battery boost feature for these laptops, which aims to deliver up to 5 hours of extra battery life.
Last year, MSI entered the handheld gaming market with the MSI Claw. At CES this year, we get a look at the latest model, the Claw 8 AI+ and Claw 7 AI+. These systems are engineered to sit in the natural contours of the hand, allowing for comfortable use for all hand sizes. MSI has redesigned the analog sticks, D-Pad, bumpers and hall-effect triggers too for smoother operation and accuracy. The MSI Center M software has also been refined for seamless device management. As this is a Windows handheld powered by Intel Core Ultra, it also has CoPilot+ capabilities. Dual Thunderbolt 4 ports allow you to dock the handheld and hook up multiple monitors.
