OneXPlayer has just unveiled a versatile new gadget designed to cater to both console and laptop enthusiasts, starting at a price of $899. The OneXPlayer G1 is built with cutting-edge Intel and AMD processors and boasts up to 64GB of RAM and 4TB of storage. For those eager to jump on board, the G1’s crowdfunding campaign is now live on Indiegogo. If you back the project within the first four days, you’ll be rewarded with a protective case at no extra cost.
Let’s dive into the specs. The OneXPlayer G1 comes in a few enticing configurations, namely Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. The top-tier option includes the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, featuring 12 Zen 5 cores (that’s four Zen 5 plus eight Zen 5c) alongside the RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M, which includes 16 Compute Units (CUs).
Further down the line, there’s the Arrow Lake-H option, which surprises with the newly introduced Core Ultra 7 255H, offering 16 cores (six performance, eight efficient, and two low-power efficient) and the Arc 140T. According to OneXPlayer, it scores an impressive 4,060 in 3DMark, which might be the Time Spy benchmark. This places it above the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake, but let’s reserve judgment until independent testing can confirm these figures. Lastly, we have the Hawk Point edition housing the Ryzen 7 8840U with eight Zen 4 cores, paired with the Radeon 780M rocking eight CUs.
When it comes to cost, the G1 starts at $899, outfitting the Ryzen 7 8840U setup with 32GB of memory and a 1TB solid-state drive. At the higher end, the $1,539 version is loaded with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 64GB of RAM, and 4TB of storage space.
The device features an 8.8-inch, 2.5K display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Its chassis is made of CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminum, ensuring it’s sturdy yet light at just 900g. OneXPlayer also added a detachable keyboard and trackpad for when productivity calls. Remove it, and you’ll find a built-in controller setup, accompanied by a mini-keyboard at the base suitable for capacitive input.
As for the triggers, they offer a linear feel, but it’s unclear if the joysticks implement hall-effect tech. If you want to push the G1 further, it includes OCuLink and USB4 ports for an external GPU, plus USB Type-A ports to keep you connected.
The OneXPlayer G1 crowdfunding effort awaits your support on Indiegogo. Remember, backing a campaign like this is more akin to making an investment than a simple purchase. If you find yourself in Las Vegas, swing by the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth to see the G1 in action for yourself.
