OneXPlayer is making waves with the official release of its X1 Pro, a versatile device using AMD’s Strix Point APUs. Positioned after the introduction of the F1 Pro and Ayaneo 3, the X1 Pro steps up as one of the pioneering handhelds armed with AMD’s Zen 5 Strix Point APUs. This puts it in fierce competition with GPD’s upcoming Pocket 4 mini-laptops.
What stands out about the OneXPlayer X1 Pro is its multifaceted design. It’s not just a handheld—it’s also capable of functioning as a laptop and a tablet. Similar to the Pocket 4, the X1 Pro boasts the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. This powerhouse features a dual-CCX layout with 12 cores (comprising four Zen 5 and eight Zen5c), along with 12MB of L2 cache and a significant 24MB of L3 cache. It has a boost clock hitting up to 5.1 GHz. The graphics department is robust, with a Radeon 890M GPU offering 16 Compute Units. Supported by AMD’s XDNA 2, the HX 370’s NPU achieves a remarkable 50 TOPS of AI capability.
Visually, the X1 Pro doesn’t disappoint. It comes equipped with a 10.95-inch 120 Hz LTPS panel, likely an IPS, offering a striking 2560×1600 resolution. The display is vibrant, covering 138% of the sRGB color spectrum and reaching a brightness of 540 nits. Buyers have flexible storage options, ranging from 1TB to an expansive 4TB, with formidable speeds of 7.1 GB/s read and 6.5 GB/s write in the 2280 format. OneXPlayer has thoughtfully included a MicroSD card slot for those needing more storage room.
In terms of battery life, the X1 Pro houses a 65.02Wh battery promising up to eight hours of use. However, expect around two hours when dialed up to 28W output. The package comes with a substantial 100W Gallium Nitride charger. Connectivity needs are well covered with support for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2.
Gaming on the X1 Pro benefits from hall-effect RGB joysticks designed to prevent stick drift. The device also offers a rich assortment of ports, including two USB 4.0 slots, an OCuLink interface, a MicroSD card slot, a USB 3.2 Type-A port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
For those eager to get their hands on it, pre-orders open today. There’s a sweet presale discount if you act quickly. The X1 Pro is slated to ship on January 3rd, and if you’re attending CES 2025 next month, watch out for its showcase along with other exciting gadgets from OneXPlayer.
