OneXPlayer is making waves with the release of the X1 Pro, a device that showcases a versatile 3-in-1 form factor and runs on AMD’s cutting-edge Strix Point APUs. Following hot on the heels of models like the F1 Pro and Ayaneo 3, the X1 Pro distinguishes itself as a frontrunner with AMD’s Zen 5 Strix Point processors. It’s gearing up to give GPD’s soon-to-be-released Pocket 4 mini-laptops some healthy competition.
The X1 Pro stands out with its all-in-one design, enabling it to function effectively as a laptop, a tablet, or a handheld gadget. Similar to the Pocket 4, this device is powered by the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, boasting a robust configuration of 12 cores (divided between four Zen 5 and eight Zen5c) in a dual-CCX layout, and is equipped with a hefty cache – 12MB of L2 and 24MB of L3. It can push the performance envelope with a boost clock reaching 5.1 GHz. The integrated GPU, the Radeon 890M, houses 16 Compute Units (CUs), while the NPU on the HX 370 leverages AMD’s XDNA 2 to deliver a strong 50 TOPS in AI performance.
The X1 Pro doesn’t compromise when it comes to visuals either. It showcases a 10.95-inch 120 Hz LTPS display, probably of the IPS variety, offering an impressive 2560×1600 (2.5K) resolution. The screen bursts with color vibrancy, covering 138% of the sRGB spectrum and achieving a brightness of 540 nits. Buyers can choose storage options ranging from 1TB to a massive 4TB, with blazing read speeds of up to 7.1 GB/s and write speeds up to 6.5 GB/s in the 2280 form factor. Additionally, for those needing extra storage, the inclusion of a MicroSD slot is a welcome feature.
Battery life is another area where the X1 Pro impresses, with its 65.02Wh battery promising up to eight hours of typical use. That said, true runtimes may vary, especially at a 28W configuration where you might expect around two hours. The package includes a 100W Gallium Nitride charger, ensuring you’re ready to power back up quickly. On the connectivity front, it supports the latest Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 standards.
Gaming enthusiasts will appreciate the controller’s hall-effect RGB joysticks, designed to eliminate stick drift. The device offers an array of ports, including two USB 4.0 ports, an OCuLink interface, a USB 3.2 Type-A port, a MicroSD slot, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
If you’re interested in securing the X1 Pro, now’s your chance to take advantage of a special presale offer available from today. Mark your calendars for January 3rd when shipping kicks off. Plus, OneXPlayer plans to showcase the X1 Pro, along with other exciting offerings, at CES 2025 next month.
