OneXPlayer has stepped up the game with their latest innovative device, designed to morph between a high-performance console and a laptop, catering to various user needs. Dubbed the OneXPlayer G1, this device starts at $899 and is packed with cutting-edge Intel and AMD processors, supporting configurations of up to 64GB of RAM and 4TB of storage. If you’re keen to get in on the action, the crowdfunding campaign is currently live on Indiegogo. As a sweetener for early birds, those backing the project within the first four days will snag a free protective case.
Now, let’s dive into the specs of the OneXPlayer G1. You’ll find several exciting configurations to choose from, including Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. The flagship model is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, boasting a 12-core setup with a combination of Zen 5 and Zen 5c CPUs under the hood and a Radeon 890M GPU featuring 16 Compute Units based on RDNA 3.5 architecture.
For those looking at the Arrow Lake-H variant, it brings to the table the Core Ultra 7 255H CPU with a fascinating mix of 16 cores (including performance, efficiency, and low-power efficiency cores) and an Arc 140T GPU. Preliminary scores reported by OneXPlayer suggest a 3DMark (probably Time Spy) score of 4,060 points. This might outshine the Arc 140V found in the Lunar Lake models, but let’s hold our breath for independent verification. Meanwhile, the Hawk Point-powered version hosts the Ryzen 7 8840U with eight Zen 4 cores along with a Radeon 780M sporting eight CUs.
Price-wise, the G1 series kicks off at $899 for the Ryzen 7 8840U model with 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD. The premium version bumps up to a hefty $1,539, featuring the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, a robust 64GB of RAM, and a generous 4TB of storage.
The display is nothing short of impressive, featuring an 8.8-inch, 2.5K panel with a swift 144 Hz refresh rate. Housed in a CNC-machined chassis from Aircraft-grade Aluminium, this device commands just 900g. The G1 also boasts a detachable keyboard with a trackpad to maximize productivity, which, upon removal, reveals a handy built-in controller and a capacitive-friendly mini-keyboard at its base.
For those who like their triggers precise, the G1’s linear triggers could be a delight. While the specifics regarding hall-effect technology in the joysticks remain unclear, the device offers connectivity options galore, with OCuLink and USB4 ports ready for an external GPU leap, alongside USB Type-A ports for versatile connectivity.
The OneXPlayer G1 is available on Indiegogo now, as part of their crowdfunding effort. Keep in mind, supporting such campaigns is more akin to investing than outright buying a product. For those lucky enough to be in Las Vegas, you can witness the G1 first-hand at the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth.
