OneXPlayer has just rolled out their new X1 Pro, a versatile 3-in-1 gadget that’s driven by AMD’s cutting-edge Strix Point APUs. Hot on the heels of models like the F1 Pro and Ayaneo 3, this device enters the market as one of the pioneering handhelds using AMD’s Zen 5 Strix Point APUs. It’s positioning itself as a formidable rival to GPD’s anticipated Pocket 4 mini-laptops.
This X1 Pro boasts a design that’s perfect for multitasking—you can use it as a laptop, a tablet, or just as easily grab it for handheld play. Much like the Pocket 4, the X1 Pro showcases the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 chip, which packs 12 cores divided into four Zen 5 and eight Zen5c in a dual-core complex. With that, you get 12MB of L2 cache, a hefty 24MB of L3 cache, and a boost clock speed reaching 5.1 GHz. On the graphics side, the Radeon 890M, armed with 16 Compute Units, handles your visual needs. This setup is backed by AMD’s XDNA 2 technology, allowing the NPU in the HX 370 to churn out an impressive 50 TOPS of AI power.
For the display, you’ll be staring at a gorgeous 10.95-inch LTPS screen likely built on IPS tech, delivering visuals in sharp 2560×1600 (2.5K) resolution at a smooth 120 Hz. This display is not just big on size but on color too—it manages to cover 138% of the sRGB spectrum and shines at a bright 540 nits. As for storage, there’s an array of options from 1TB up to 4TB, with swift speeds of 7.1 GB/s for reading and 6.5 GB/s for writing in a 2280 format. Looking for more storage? Pop in a MicroSD card thanks to the included slot—another thoughtful addition from OneXPlayer.
Flipping through pricing, the presale offers tempting discounts: the base model with HX 370, 1TB of storage, and 32GB RAM is priced at $1,399, stepping up to $1,799 for the beefed-up version featuring 4TB storage and 64GB RAM once it hits retail.
The X1 Pro promises around eight hours on a full charge from its 65.02Wh battery, though depending on use, particularly at a 28W configuration, it might clock around two hours. Complementing this, they’ve thrown in a powerful 100W Gallium Nitride charger right in the box. When it comes to staying connected, you’re covered with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 options.
Worried about joystick drift? The controller comes with hall-effect RGB joysticks to nip that in the bud. I/O options include two USB 4.0 ports, an OCuLink interface, a MicroSD card slot, a USB 3.2 Type-A port, and of course, a 3.5mm audio jack.
If you’re eager to get your hands on the X1 Pro, pre-orders are up for grabs now, letting you take advantage of those presale prices. Expected shipping kicks off on January 3rd, with OneXPlayer showcasing the X1 Pro amid their lineup at CES 2025 next month.
