OneXPlayer is stirring the gaming world with the introduction of the G1, a versatile device that effortlessly transforms between a console and a laptop depending on your needs. Priced from $899, this high-performance gadget promises to cater to a variety of gaming experiences. Supporters who back the G1 on Indiegogo within the first four days receive a free protective case, adding even more value to their pledge.
Under the hood, the G1 is offered in several configurations: Strix Point, Arrow Lake-H, and Hawk Point. The flagship model boasts an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, featuring a robust combination of 12 Zen 5 cores (four Zen 5 + eight Zen 5c) and the powerful RDNA 3.5-based Radeon 890M GPU with 16 Compute Units (CUs).
Further down the line, the Arrow Lake-H model makes a notable mark with the newly unveiled Core Ultra 7 255H processor. It packs a punch with 16 cores (six P + eight E + two LPE) and the Arc 140T GPU. OneXPlayer’s tests suggest it scores around 4,060 points on 3DMark, potentially exceeding the capabilities of the Arc 140V found in Lunar Lake configurations. Lastly, the Hawk Point-powered Ryzen 7 8840U, equipped with eight Zen 4 cores and the Radeon 780M sporting eight CUs, rounds out the options.
Pricing for these configurations starts at a competitive $899, offering the Ryzen 7 8840U, 32GB of memory, and a 1TB SSD. The top-of-the-line model is priced at $1,539, loaded with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, abundant 64GB of RAM, and a spacious 4TB of storage.
The G1 features a stunning 8.8-inch, 2.5K panel with a 144 Hz refresh rate. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, the device is lightweight at just 900g. For added convenience, it includes a detachable keyboard and a trackpad, perfect for productivity. Once detached, a built-in controller setup with a mini-keyboard appears, likely boasting capacitive input features.
The G1’s triggers are linear, although details about hall-effect joysticks remain unconfirmed. For those seeking more power, it includes OCuLink and USB4 ports for an external GPU, along with USB Type-A ports for further connectivity options.
Currently, the OneXPlayer G1 is gathering backers on Indiegogo. It’s worth noting that participating in crowdfunding is more like investing than simply buying a product. For those in Las Vegas interested in experiencing the G1 firsthand, it will be on display at the LVCC, South Hall 1-31145 booth.
