OneXPlayer is shaking things up with a fresh, versatile device that doubles as a console and a laptop, catering to whatever your tech needs might be. With a starting price of $899, the new OneXPlayer G1 is built with the latest Intel and AMD processors, up to a massive 64GB of RAM, and storage reaching 4TB. The G1 has just hit Indiegogo for crowdfunding, and early backers who jump in during the first four days will snag a complimentary protective case.
Delving into the specs, the OneXPlayer G1 is offered in several different configurations: Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. The top-end model features the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, which houses 12 Zen 5 cores (combining four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c) paired with an RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M packing in 16 Compute Units (CUs).
Looking further down the lineup, Arrow Lake-H is an impressive option with the newly introduced Core Ultra 7 255H. This chip boasts 16 cores (six P, eight E, and two LPE) and includes the Arc 140T, which reportedly scores 4,060 in 3DMark (most likely Time Spy), according to OneXPlayer. This potentially outdoes the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake, though I’m holding out for independent reviews before drawing any hard conclusions. Lastly, the Hawk Point-based Ryzen 7 8840U packs a punch with eight Zen 4 cores and the Radeon 780M, featuring eight CUs.
Price wise, the G1 kicks off at $899 with the Ryzen 7 8840U, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. At the high end, the $1,539 version shines with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 64GB of RAM, and a whopping 4TB of storage.
For display die-hards, the G1 sports an 8.8-inch, 2.5K screen that operates at a vibrant 144 Hz. Its body, crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, weighs in at just 900g. A detachable keyboard and trackpad are included for those dabbling in productivity tasks. Once removed, users find a built-in controller setup contrasted with a mini-keyboard at the bottom, likely accepting capacitive input.
Though the triggers are linear, there’s no detailed information on whether the joysticks utilize hall-effect technology. If you’re looking to expand its capabilities, the G1 includes OCuLink and USB4 ports for attachment of external GPUs, along with USB Type-A ports for additional connectivity.
For those eager to see for themselves, the OneXPlayer G1 is currently being showcased and crowdfunded on Indiegogo. It’s important to remember that backing a crowdfunding campaign might feel more like an investment than a straight-up purchase. If you’re in Las Vegas, you can catch a hands-on glimpse at the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth.
