MSI has unveiled the Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition Draco Epic and the MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ handheld at Computex 2026, marking the company's 40th anniversary with a significant hardware refresh. The new flagship laptop and gaming handheld focus on integrating high-end silicon with AI-driven performance features for enthusiasts and mobile gamers.
The Titan 18 HX Dragon Edition is a limited-edition powerhouse designed to display the current peak of mobile computing.

Next-Generation Handheld Gaming
Alongside the flagship laptop, the MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ is the first handheld gaming device to adopt the Intel Arc G3 Extreme processors. This new model improves upon its predecessor with an 8-inch FHD+ touchscreen that supports a 120Hz variable refresh rate (VRR). MSI has also increased the battery capacity to 80Whr, aiming to provide longer play sessions for AAA titles on the go.
The MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ also incorporates Hall-effect controls to prevent joystick drift and uses Arc B390 graphics for improved visual fidelity. MSI stated that both the Titan and the Claw utilize AI-driven performance enhancements to optimize power delivery and frame rates based on the specific game being played.
The 40th Anniversary Titan 18 HX will be available as part of an exclusive collector's bundle. While specific regional pricing has not been finalized as of June 1, 2026, these devices are expected to lead MSI's premium hardware lineup for the remainder of the year.
