OneXPlayer has just unveiled a versatile new high-performance device, offering the flexibility to function as either a console or a laptop based on your needs. Priced starting at $899, the OneXPlayer G1 boasts cutting-edge processors from Intel and AMD, up to 64GB of memory, and a whopping 4TB of storage. The crowdfunding campaign for this innovative gadget is live on Indiegogo, and as a sweet deal, early backers in the first four days (96 hours) will snag a free protective case.
When it comes to specs, the OneXPlayer G1 provides several options to choose from: Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. At the pinnacle of these configurations is the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. This powerhouse is supported by 12 Zen 5 cores—comprised of four Zen 5 and eight Zen 5c cores—alongside the RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M GPU, which houses 16 Compute Units (CUs).
As we move down the lineup, the Arrow Lake-H presents a compelling choice, featuring the newly announced Core Ultra 7 255H with its impressive 16 cores (structured as six P cores, eight E cores, and two LPE cores) and supported by the Arc 140T graphics. According to OneXPlayer, this configuration scores around 4,060 points in 3DMark (possibly Time Spy), outshining the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake systems. Still, it’s wise to wait for independent benchmarks before drawing any conclusions. Lastly, the Hawk Point-based Ryzen 7 8840U with eight Zen 4 cores, coupled with the Radeon 780M and its eight CUs guarantees a solid performance.
If you’re curious about pricing, the OneXPlayer G1 starts at $899, which includes the Ryzen 7 8840U, 32GB of memory, and a 1TB SSD. At the top end, the $1,539 version is equipped with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, a hefty 64GB of RAM, and 4TB of storage.
The device features a striking 8.8-inch, 2.5K display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Weighing in at just 900 grams, the chassis is made from CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminum. For productivity needs, the G1 includes a detachable keyboard and trackpad. Once removed, the device reveals a built-in controller paired with a mini keyboard likely supporting capacitive inputs.
OneXPlayer keeps their approach to controls cutting-edge with linear triggers, though specifics about hall-effect technology in the joysticks are unconfirmed. Should you wish to enhance the system’s gaming capabilities, the G1 incorporates OCuLink and USB4 ports for attaching an external GPU, along with USB Type-A ports for broader connectivity.
You can now jump on board by supporting the OneXPlayer G1 on Indiegogo. Bear in mind that backing crowdfunding campaigns is more akin to making an investment than purchasing a product outright. If you’re visiting Las Vegas and longing to experience the G1 firsthand, drop by the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth to see it up close.
