The latest handheld marvel from OneXPlayer, the X1 Pro, has officially hit the market, embracing a versatile 3-in-1 form factor while being powered by AMD’s new Strix Point APUs. Hot on the heels of the F1 Pro and Ayaneo 3, the X1 Pro stands out as one of the pioneering devices that harness the capabilities of AMD’s Zen 5 Strix Point architecture, positioning it as a serious contender against GPD’s upcoming Pocket 4 mini-laptops.
The X1 Pro showcases an adaptable design, effortlessly transitioning between a laptop, a tablet, and a handheld gaming device. Much like its rival, the Pocket 4, this device is powered by the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. It boasts an impressive dual-CCX layout with 12 cores—four Zen 5 and eight Zen5c—alongside 12MB of L2 cache and 24MB of L3 cache, all orchestrated at a boost clock of up to 5.1 GHz. On the graphics side, it packs a punch with a Radeon 890M iGPU, featuring 16 Compute Units. Thanks to AMD’s cutting-edge XDNA 2, the NPU in the HX 370 can crank out a staggering 50 TOPS of AI performance.
As for the display, you’re in for a treat: it sports a 10.95-inch 120 Hz LTPS (most likely IPS) panel, delivering a stunning 2560×1600 resolution. The colors are rich and vibrant, with the panel covering an impressive 138% of the sRGB color space and shining brightly at 540 nits. When it comes to storage, flexibility is key, allowing you to choose from 1TB to a generous 4TB, with ultra-fast read and write speeds of up to 7.1 GB/s and 6.5 GB/s, respectively, housed in the 2280 form factor. Plus, OneXPlayer has thoughtfully included a MicroSD card slot for even more storage options.
The battery in the X1 Pro, rated at 65.02Wh, promises up to eight hours of use, although as always, actual runtime may vary; running it at 28W is expected to yield around two hours of gameplay. OneXPlayer hasn’t cut corners here, either—they’ve bundled a 100W Gallium Nitride charger for speedy recharges. On the connectivity front, you’re equipped with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 for seamless internet and peripheral connections.
For those concerned about the controls, the device features hall-effect RGB joysticks, specifically designed to prevent unwanted stick drift. In terms of ports, the X1 Pro doesn’t disappoint, offering two USB 4.0 ports, an OCuLink interface, a MicroSD card slot, a USB 3.2 Type-A port, and a handy 3.5mm audio jack.
If you’re eager to get your hands on this innovative gadget, pre-orders are available starting today, with attractive discounts for early buyers. You can expect shipping to commence on January 3rd. Moreover, OneXPlayer plans to showcase the X1 Pro, along with other exciting devices, at the CES 2025 event next month.
