OneXPlayer G1 Handheld Gaming Device Features Strix Point or Arrow Lake-H Processors — High-End Model Offers 64GB RAM and 4TB Storage for $1,539

OneXPlayer is shaking things up with their latest innovative device that doubles as both a console and a laptop, tailored to meet your specific needs, and kicking off with a starting price of $899. The OneXPlayer G1 is packed with cutting-edge Intel and AMD processors, offering up to 64GB of RAM and a whopping 4TB of storage. Currently, the G1 is being crowdfunded on Indiegogo, and if you’re quick to jump in during the first four days, you’ll receive a free protective case.

When it comes to the configurations, there are several compelling options for the OneXPlayer G1. Models include Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. The top-tier model stands out with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, which boasts 12 Zen 5 cores (a mix of four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c), and is complemented by the RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M with 16 Compute Units (CUs).

Dig a bit deeper into the lineup, and Arrow Lake-H might catch your attention. It features the new Core Ultra 7 255H with 16 cores (six P, eight E, and two LPE) and the Arc 140T, reportedly clocking 4,060 points in 3DMark Time Spy, according to OneXPlayer. This score edges out the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake; however, independent tests will provide a clearer picture. Meanwhile, the Hawk Point-based Ryzen 7 8840U offers eight Zen 4 cores with the Radeon 780M, complete with eight CUs.

As for the pricing spectrum, the G1 starts at $899 for the Ryzen 7 8840U model, featuring 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD. If you’re aiming for the premium end, the $1,539 version includes the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, a hefty 64GB of RAM, and 4TB of storage.

The G1’s display is an 8.8-inch, 2.5K screen running at an impressive 144 Hz. Crafted from Aircraft-grade Aluminium via CNC machining, this device weighs a manageable 900g. Adding to its versatility, OneXPlayer includes a detachable keyboard and trackpad, seamlessly converting into a laptop-style interface. When detached, you’ll find a controller paired with a mini-keyboard that likely employs capacitive touch.

Although the triggers are linear, details on joystick technology remain elusive, particularly regarding hall-effect usage. For power users, the G1 offers OCuLink and USB4 ports for external GPU connections, not to mention USB Type-A ports to keep your peripherals connected.

The crowdfunding campaign for the OneXPlayer G1 is live on Indiegogo. It’s important to remember that backing such campaigns is more of an investment rather than a straightforward purchase. If you find yourself in Las Vegas and are keen on getting a firsthand look, you can visit the G1 at the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth.
