OneXPlayer recently stirred up excitement in the gaming world by dropping a teaser for their upcoming handheld gaming device, the Onexfly F1 Pro, on YouTube. This new gadget is packed with AMD’s formidable Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, part of the cutting-edge Ryzen AI 300 series, codenamed Strix Point. As a sleek 7-inch handheld, the Onexfly F1 Pro was shown running the game Black Myth: Wukong, achieving performance levels between 50 to 60 frames per second.
The device boasts an advanced HDR-supported OLED display, also 7 inches, with an impressive 144 Hz refresh rate. Weighing in at 598 grams, it includes Harman Kardon speakers to enrich the audio experience. But the real showstopper is under the hood – the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 CPU. It showcases a blend of four Zen 5 cores, eight Zen 5c cores, and AMD’s new Radeon 890M integrated graphics unit with 16 compute units, based on the RDAN 3.5 architecture. With such powerhouse specs, the Onexfly F1 Pro looks poised to stand toe-to-toe with competitors like the Steam Deck OLED, the ROG Ally X, and the Lenovo Legion Go.
OneXPlayer demonstrated the Onexfly F1 Pro’s capabilities by running Black Myth: Wukong benchmarks at 1080p and low quality settings, utilizing 65% upscaling (resulting in an effective internal rendering resolution of 1248 x 702). At these settings, the AI 9 HX 370-powered device maintained an average of 58 FPS, while keeping power consumption to a modest 15W.
A quick glance at the showcased YouTube video titled “Introducing the AMD AI 370 Powered ONEXFLY F1 Pro | 7″ OLED & 144Hz Gaming Beast” gives you a chance to witness this portable marvel in action. It’s not just about looks; the Onexfly F1 Pro marks a first for OneXPlayer by combining an OLED display with AMD’s latest Zen 5-based mobile CPUs. Until now, their devices have been utilizing previous-gen Intel or AMD processors paired with non-OLED screens. Additionally, it will be one of the pioneering handhelds featuring Zen 5 power—alongside the GPT Pocket 4, the only other device anticipated with the Ryzen AI HX 370.
In contrast to the Pocket 4, the F1 Pro adheres to traditional handheld design complete with comfortable grips and controls, while the Pocket 4 adopts a hybrid 2-in-1 format with a keyboard and a flip screen.
The benchmark teaser from OneXPlayer highlights the AI 9 HX 370’s compatibility with handhelds, showing its ability to handle demanding AAA games at a moderate 15W Thermal Design Power to extend battery life. Even as AMD holds back its next-gen Z-series CPUs aimed at handhelds, companies like OneXPlayer are gravitating towards the laptop-centric Ryzen AI 300 series for now.
