OneXPlayer G1 Handheld: Features Strix Point or Arrow Lake-H Processors, 64GB RAM, 4TB Storage for $1,539

OneXPlayer has stirred excitement in the gaming community with its latest flexible, high-performance gadget—a hybrid of a console and a laptop—priced from $899. Enter the OneXPlayer G1, designed with next-gen processors from Intel and AMD, offering up to a whopping 64GB of RAM and 4TB of storage. Currently seeking backers on Indiegogo, the campaign offers an enticing deal: those who pledge within the first 96 hours receive a free protective case.

Let’s dive into the specs. The OneXPlayer G1 comes in several configurations: Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. Leading the pack is the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 model, featuring a robust 12-core setup (four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c) alongside the cutting-edge RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M, boasting 16 Compute Units.

A surprising entry in this lineup is the Arrow Lake-H, which features the newly introduced Core Ultra 7 255H, sporting 16 cores (a mix of six P, eight E, and two LPE cores) and the Arc 140T graphics, which, according to OneXPlayer, impressively scores 4,060 in 3DMark—believed to be Time Spy benchmark scores. Though this beats the Arc 140V seen in Lunar Lake, it’s best to await independent testing for clutch confirmations. Lower in the hierarchy, the Hawk Point model delivers with the Ryzen 7 8840U, eight Zen 4 cores, and a Radeon 780M with eight CUs.

The price spectrum for the G1 starts at $899, integrating the Ryzen 7 8840U, bundled with 32GB of memory and a 1TB SSD. At the premium end, for $1,539, you get the mighty Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, paired with 64GB of RAM and an expansive 4TB of storage.

The device features an 8.8-inch, 2.5K display offering a smooth 144Hz refresh rate. With a chassis precision-engineered from aircraft-grade aluminum, it weighs a light 900 grams. The G1 isn’t just about style; it boasts a detachable keyboard and trackpad to amp up your productivity. Once detached, it reveals a neatly integrated controller and mini-keyboard, probably utilizing capacitive input for seamless interaction.

The triggers are linear; however, it’s not specified if the joysticks incorporate hall-effect technology. For those seeking more power, the G1 features OCuLink and USB4 ports for connecting external GPUs, along with USB Type-A ports for additional connectivity.

Currently available for crowdfunding on Indiegogo, the OneXPlayer G1 is a noteworthy investment for true gaming enthusiasts. Just remember, backing this project is more like betting on a promising venture than just adding a new gadget to your cart.
