OneXPlayer is stirring the pot in the gaming world with the revelation of its latest powerhouse gadget that doubles as both a console and a laptop, geared towards various user preferences and starting at a wallet-thinning $899. Say hello to the OneXPlayer G1, engineered with the cutting-edge processors from Intel and AMD, furnished with up to a whopping 64GB of memory, and offering a storage capacity as vast as 4TB. If you’re eager to jump on the bandwagon, the crowdfunding campaign for the G1 is up and running on Indiegogo. They’re even throwing in a free protective case for early adopters who back the project within the first four days.
Diving into the nitty-gritty, the OneXPlayer G1 presents a lineup of configurations like Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. At the apex, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 shines, boasting 12 Zen 5 cores (split between four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c) matched with the RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M that sports 16 Compute Units (CUs).
Moving down the options, Arrow Lake-H makes an interesting appearance with the freshly unveiled Core Ultra 7 255H, equipped with 16 cores (six P, eight E, and two LPE) along with the Arc 140T. It purportedly hits a score of 4,060 on 3DMark’s Time Spy, according to OneXPlayer. This beats the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake, although independent tests will give us more concrete comparisons. Meanwhile, the Hawk Point-based Ryzen 7 8840U includes eight Zen 4 cores paired with the Radeon 780M’s eight CUs.
Pricing for the G1 starts at $899, featuring the Ryzen 7 8840U, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD. For those with deeper pockets, the high-end $1,539 version flaunts the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 64GB of RAM, and 4TB of storage.
The device’s display dazzles with an 8.8-inch, 2.5K screen running at 144 Hz. Its body, crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, tips the scales at a mere 900g. Designed for versatility, the G1 comes with a removable keyboard and trackpad, and once detached, a built-in controller setup is revealed, complemented by a mini-keyboard below that might work with capacitive input.
The G1 features linear triggers, though it remains to be seen if the joysticks incorporate hall-effect technology. For those seeking additional connectivity, the G1 is equipped with OCuLink and USB4 ports for external GPUs along with USB Type-A ports.
Eager to explore this gadgetry marvel? The OneXPlayer G1 is available for crowdfunding on Indiegogo. Remember, supporting a crowdfunding campaign is more like making an investment than purchasing a finished product.
