I really wish Lenovo would key in on the potential here and make a keyboard for their Legion Go. Unfortunately, they didn't have the foresight to include some kind of POGO pin configuration on the bottom with this use case in mind.
@@retrotechdad I kept going back and forth between the Win Max 2 and Legion Go when I was waiting for my IGG order for the WM2 to be fulfilled. I ended up keeping it. I'd still love to check out a Legion Go in my hands but it really feels like no one's even considered the expanded functionality that the Legion Go could have with the right accessories.
Hmm, the specs and other benchmarks have all shown the max TDP for this is 35w, just like the console shows, not 28. I'm curious why you didn't test it at 35W? At the high end is said to be where Ultra 7 is able to pull considerably ahead of the 7840u .

Yes, you're correct. Any issues usually means either you have to wait for them to send a replacement from China or potentially having to mail to China.
Thanks for posting this. This is exactly what I needed to see in order to talk myself out of buying this. It's a great idea in concept, but the fact that they didn't even send you controllers for one of the three use scenarios tell me all that I need to hear.
@@Maximus20778 if you look at some of his thumbnails you see a lot of ai photoshop and he constantly changes his thumbnails like he will show an alien looking handheld that will show on my notifications but when I click on the video the handheld will look entirely different.
Would you consider doing a few comparison benchmarks at the full TDP of 35W? Or at least run one benchmark on Timespy and comment what you get? I know Intel lists 28W as the intended sustained TDP for the 155H, but this specific device is meant to go to 35W and advertises a Timespy score of 4100 when using that TDP (and the option was *right there*, it killed me when you decided not to try it, lol). Seeing how it really performs at 35W is basically the #1 thing many of us still on the fence about buying just want to see. Would you indulge us, pretty please?
@@lordrahl7033 Gamer's Nexus updates on Intel Arc drivers progress suggests otherwise. I doubt we'll see them matching the performance of dedicated GPUs from AMD and Nvidia any time soon, but for a company that only started getting serious in the dedicated GPU market (and useful integrated graphics) within the last year and a half, I think they're doing quite well adapting and fixing many of the problems they had at launch. Incremental gains add up after a few decades, and I think that's one of the way Nvidia ended up where they are.
Fan wasn't really audible so I'd say that's why it wasn't memorable. I only truly recall hearing it at the max TDP of 28 watts and even then it wasn't surprisingly that bad. Cooling is one very good thing on here.
@@retrotechdad good to hear it is silent. I prefet silent handheld. Anyways your review is very good. Keep doing more reviews with this device like using it as a desktop hooked to a 4k 120hz tv. Thanks
Great video as always! I think this 3 in 1 approach has so much more potential than handhelds like the Ally, Go, or SD. Lenovo was close, but didn't bother to fully realize it. Exciting times! Although a little worried about it being a little too big of a screen for comfort (both weight and ergo) as a handheld.
That's a pretty solid battery performance. On par with Aokzoe A1 Pro which has smaller 60Hz screen. Really looking forward to getting my Unit. Really appreciate the in-depth review!
The amount of detail here is... incredible. I think handhelds like this are likely to replace laptops. Happy with my legion go, keen to see how Intel continue to develop though.
Dude you don't know how much you saved me, I was waiting for an in depth review before pulling the trigger on ordering from indigogo, checking each day for a month now if any good review is up.. and 2 days before the back-order ends your GODLY video is up! Thank you!!! Really!!❤
I know that you did not do this directly, but based on what I saw in this video, I decided to cancel my Indiegogo Contribution. The performance while "may improve with drivers over time" I will just rather wait it out and see. Don't think it's worth the price tag right at this moment. Thanks for the video though!
That's what I always hope to do with every video of mine. I'm here to present information in the best way that I can. I'm happy this was helpful to you though! 🙏
*GREAT* and very thorough review. Too bad Intel is a bit of a letdown, particularly in some of those PC results. AMD's almost double the performance. Don't be soft on multibillion dollar corporations. Intel has a ton of work to still to do.
I hate how reviewers only do low tdp. Yes, these devices might be portable but many play with it plugged in. To not even mention plugged in performance, and it's potential max performance, dumb
I'm just a bit disappointed they went with Intel, though I am VERY glad to see that even if I do get an Intel based handheld device it isn't obligated to have an NVidia GPU as I do want to stay away from NVidia due to their business. While I still think Intel is pretty scummy with how they did AMD, even with AMD winning that lawsuit I was worried the litigation dragging on so long and their Bulldozer stuff was going to tank AMD. Thankfully they pulled through and are making Intel have to compete again, so I think that water is mostly under the bridge now. I use almost exclusively laptops but not as "desk" replacements, but actual lap devices and very, VERY often this use case causes issues with the barrel jacks wearing out and me having to replace laptops usually after 2-3 years, or just having someone competent replacing the barrel plug (I'm not nearly handy enough with a solder gun) to extend the life. Even had to have someone come and replace it due to having a great warranty for a year, because in under a year the power plug broke/damaged and was shorting out. So while you did most of your testing at 15-18W, my use case for this device would probably STILL be 90% plugged in. As of this very moment I am using a Lenovo Legion Go with the controllers detached and in the case, Go propped up with a hub, typing on a full size keyboard and external mouse. If I didn't buy this Go as recently as I did and still had the money, I think I would honestly have opted for the OneXPlayer here instead. Cheers and thank you very much for the review, it was very informative!
The X1 is definitely going to be a nice option when plugged in for the full performance. Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the coverage! 🙏
Great job as alway bruh. Loved the vid. Have you tried any of the PS3 EA Sports titles? I'm kinda curious how this would run college football 14. I just hate that Intel is lagging behind like this. The X1 has ALOT of potential especially with that larger screen.
@@dominiquesmith6745 I put the money down for the top spec X1 as well, but not with the bundled eGPU. I expect some refreshes in the next few years... I own a 6800u GPD Win 4, and am interested in seeing how the devices compare. I realized that some games just don't translate well to a 6 inch screen, but this is largely UI design dependent. I hope we both enjoy the X1; Intel seems hard at work on driver updates for their Arc graphics, so we should expect incremental performance gains.
Fantastic review, I'm watching for the second time. So deep and detailed, it's really helpful. I ended up ordering one, as it'll replace my computer. I'll sell my Surface Pro that costs way too much!
Hi, can you test the kingdom Hearts games on this device? I have the Azus Rog Ally and it doesn't run because of the chip or drivers so I want to sell it so I can get a device that can run them with no Issue.
First ! Thanks for your review. I just jumped to the chapter with the performance, and this new core is pretty disapointing :(. anyway i love the concept of this device
Arc is the issue for Xenia Canary. I do have an older i7-12700H paired with an Arc A770M and I'm getting the same terrible experience and many crashes. The i7-12700H paired with a different GPU doesn't cause issues in Xenia Canary. Arc and Xenia Canary. don't play well together for me.
@@retrotechdad yes, a huge bummer, I really like playing Xbox360 games (I even got a working Xbox360 still) and would have loved to play them on my desktop, but I'm still stuck playing them on my laptop with RTX 2060.
It’s a shame the intel chip isn’t better then what was on display was really looking forward to Msi Claw but I think I will wait for the new asus rog ally as long as it’s using amd new chip 8840/ z2 extreme
Thanks for the video, and actually comparing it to 7840u devices, unlike some other channels that don't want to show how far behind intel is in terms of efficiency and want to keep on good terms with their sponsors.
My concern is the battery. It would be very embarrassing if I use it as a laptop for presentation (to customers) but not enough battery after playing like half hour on 3A games. The purpose of this console (so heavy & expensive) is to act like you get a handheld & same time laptop. But if after playing 30 mins games, then you don't have "enough" battery for your customer presentation, it would cause you big problems in (work) life. Because even a laptop cannot stand for 3-4 hours , but now is a 3-to-1 console. This is my most concern.
As always, intel had been consistently the all paper king.. always claiming to be the best and the fastest within the category... and failing.. dont get me wrong, i'd love to see another viable player to outspeed the current Zen lineup, coz competition always benefits the consumer, sadly intel's just aint cutting it..
Subscribing to you because eta prime is kinda shit the last months. Just cant watch his "reviews" anymore. Your video gave me exactly the answers i needed. I got the legion go, but im willing to sell that to get this instead just for the oculink port. Not feeling like taking the legion go apart just to use a m.2 module for oculink. Also octopath is amazing. Im happy to see it featured here.
In that size you better buy an ASUS ROG z13 flow and get a controller. Süd it’s not the same handheld feeling but that thing is not comfy to hold. I think the Steam Deck is already a bit heavy. Love my Ally more.
hey guys I'm need of advice which laptop or tablet I should buy for gaming and school stuff from OneXPlayer X1 asus rog flow z13 and minisforum v3 please reply ASAP
Ive already bought one of these, and I know the Minisforum V3 has the superior iGPU, but if you could do a review on thr V3 and mention it in comparison to this device somewhere in that video, I think it would be a great review for those of us looking for a device that fits such a specific niche.
Do you know which port, it any outputs video to AR glasses? Both USB C ports do not work with my AR glasses. They are marked as charging ports on the machine. Thanks
I remember getting the GPD Win 3 with Intel Iris graphics, Never again! the Intel Iris Graphics drivers updates took near 12 months to fix the Graphic Artifacts in game, rendering games unplayable. Terrible.
@@retrotechdad I wouldn't mind if Intel devices would carry a discounted price compared to AMD but they never do, they usually cost more for an inferior chip 🙄 So who would buy it?
If Intel has not solved the problems with the degradation of processors of previous generations, then why should potential buyers of the next generation believe that they will not be thrown into the landfill next time
Good video. Definitely changed my mind, lower performance for a bigger screen. I'll check it out down the line, see how performance improves. Using legion go atm.
Pretty confident OneNet will have to sell an AMD version later in the year or next. I'm keeping my current Intel order but will get an AMD variant once it's available and give the Intel one to a lucky relative.
Just picked up a Legion Go, but to be honest this looks like it checks even more boxes (except the very crucial one of affordability). I'm a Mac/iPhone user so having a laptop replacement/gaming console all-in-one isn't a priority for me since Windows isn't my ecosystem. The weakness of the keyboard though is a big issue were I to consider the X1. I suppose a keyboard that's 80% there is better than none at all but I'd have to experience it myself. I wish they would have incorporate the kickstand as you mentioned. That's one of my favorite features of the Legion Go, it's a perfect complement to the big screen which is still portable enough to travel with.
0:59 It would have been much more clever to say “Let’s see if this meteor has the impact to *wipe out* the competition” You know, like wiping out the dinosaurs?
Hopefully Intel will stay committed to working on drivers in the coming months and beyond. When you look at synthetics you can see the chip has raw potential to at least compete more closely with the 7840u/8840u than it is right now. Maybe I'm crazy but I am sticking with my X1 + OneXGPU preorder (32gb + 2tb version). It seems to me that I can expect a "low res 30 fps" experience out of the iGPU even with high-end games, which to me feels acceptable. Realistically, I spend 80%+ of my gaming time in a position to use an outlet/charger, so Oculink + OneXGPU will be accessible when I want/need higher performance levels anyway. Ultimately, the X1 is the only device in this market so far to truly capture the 3-in-1 concept that can basically be everything from a reading tablet, to a gaming handheld, to a production laptop, to a gaming PC hooked up to my big screen TV. Truly "all in one" and in a portable package to boot. So I guess you could say I'm more bought into the form factor than the chipset, and fwiw I've always been one to gravitate towards more "unique" technology for whatever reason. Crossing my fingers on this one lol.
Gotta wonder why they're sending out review units of a 3-in-1 device with one of the modes completely missing and a second still in prototyping. Did you run any performance tests at higher than 25W? You show the handhelds built around a ryzen 7040 chip outperforming this significantly within their own ideal power range, but the settings on this range much higher by default so I'd definitely like to see how it compares at max power. Yeah battery life and thermals would suffer, but this device already has a bigger batter and seems to have better cooling than any of the direct competitors, which makes me think that the whole thing was optimized for a significantly higher TDP...
I've been looking for a tablet to replace my 10 inch Galaxy S9. I love the Galaxy but I've become to accustomed to various Github app only available on Windows 11 so I'd like to switch operating systems. The Oculink is a big draw on the X1 but I'm not certain if the bulk would defeat the convenience I get with a slim Android tablet. I'm also not sure if I'd miss the AMOLED display I really love about the Galaxy and if the LTPS display would mostly satisfy.
Great video. I'm watching mostly for the 155H performance, I would like to buy the LG Gram Pro 2in1, it calls my attention and I plan to use a PS4 controller with it, great showcase. Thank you very much for all the details.
I was concerned what the new intel chips can do. What about older Direct X games. Arc has been known to stuggle when you go back in time, but something like this tablet would be great for older DX 9, 10, and 11 games.
maybe you could stop those low wattage tests and come straight to maximum 35w test because when i play game i alway plug in, portable is only for web browsing....
@@chrismartin3959 everybody? so why not teste on both low and maximum wattages, why only low wattages? just claiming "or this is a portable device so people only use it with low wattage to reserve battery life and never plug in" is bullshit
Subscribed! Thanks for the video mate. I have been looking to get something that can do both gaming and I can also write some code (software engineering) on it for my work.
i got my zenbook duo 2024 120hz oled, ultra 7 155H & 16gb ram few days ago.. in the asus system setting app i put 8gb allocation to the arc GPU & the fan speed option to performance mode with the AC power and was able to play all games on high setting with few tweaks in graphics setting of the games which i couldn't believe a laptop without RTX can even do lol. Any more tips?
I have an Asus A16 AMD (All Advantage Series) 7735hs with RX7700S 8gb GDDR6,16gb ddr5, and its able to play any game (so far) on ultra/very high settings @1440p I did upgrade the ram from 16gb 4800mhz to 32gb of 5600mhz, but even before I upgraded the ram, it was able to play games @1440p on ultra/high settings.
@@tnt_champ1002 yes, but not completely when it has things like custom buttons and touchscreens - need drivers that support the hardware if it doesnt have one already

It's nothing exciting but it does work correctly. I was doing a lot of adjusting with the TDP even in-game and it does scale correctly.
Awesome video, good to know the legion go was the right choice even with the new devices coming out
Going to use this as a device to replace everything, PC and all. The oculink is so huge for me.
Nice! Yes, having eGPU is going to be very nice for a docked/desktop experience. 🙏
It’s a shame the intel chip isn’t better then what was on display was really looking forward to Msi Claw but I think I will wait for the new asus rog ally as long as it’s using amd new chip 8840/ z2 extreme
Thanks for the video, and actually comparing it to 7840u devices, unlike some other channels that don't want to show how far behind intel is in terms of efficiency and want to keep on good terms with their sponsors.
Do you know if you can use other magnetic keyboards with the X1?
No, the pogo pin layout is different than say a Surface keyboard.
My concern is the battery. It would be very embarrassing if I use it as a laptop for presentation (to customers) but not enough battery after playing like half hour on 3A games. The purpose of this console (so heavy & expensive) is to act like you get a handheld & same time laptop. But if after playing 30 mins games, then you don't have "enough" battery for your customer presentation, it would cause you big problems in (work) life. Because even a laptop cannot stand for 3-4 hours , but now is a 3-to-1 console. This is my most concern.
800 to a 2000....yeah no thanks
As always, intel had been consistently the all paper king.. always claiming to be the best and the fastest within the category... and failing.. dont get me wrong, i'd love to see another viable player to outspeed the current Zen lineup, coz competition always benefits the consumer, sadly intel's just aint cutting it..
Subscribing to you because eta prime is kinda shit the last months. Just cant watch his "reviews" anymore. Your video gave me exactly the answers i needed.
I got the legion go, but im willing to sell that to get this instead just for the oculink port. Not feeling like taking the legion go apart just to use a m.2 module for oculink.
Also octopath is amazing. Im happy to see it featured here.
In that size you better buy an ASUS ROG z13 flow and get a controller. Süd it’s not the same handheld feeling but that thing is not comfy to hold. I think the Steam Deck is already a bit heavy. Love my Ally more.
hey guys I'm need of advice which laptop or tablet I should buy for gaming and school stuff from
OneXPlayer X1
asus rog flow z13 and
minisforum v3 please reply ASAP
Ive already bought one of these, and I know the Minisforum V3 has the superior iGPU, but if you could do a review on thr V3 and mention it in comparison to this device somewhere in that video, I think it would be a great review for those of us looking for a device that fits such a specific niche.
Do you know which port, it any outputs video to AR glasses? Both USB C ports do not work with my AR glasses. They are marked as charging ports on the machine. Thanks
I remember getting the GPD Win 3 with Intel Iris graphics, Never again! the Intel Iris Graphics drivers updates took near 12 months to fix the Graphic Artifacts in game, rendering games unplayable.
Terrible.
That's one of my concerns. The Alan Wake II issue is a perfect example of it. Intel was aware of the issue in January... how long until it's fixed.
@@retrotechdad I wouldn't mind if Intel devices would carry a discounted price compared to AMD but they never do, they usually cost more for an inferior chip 🙄 So who would buy it?
No side controllers to show... Ugh. Still no review that makes me wanna buy it 😢
If Intel has not solved the problems with the degradation of processors of previous generations,
then why should potential buyers of the next generation believe that they will not be thrown into the landfill next time
So glad he did a forspoken test, for all the non reviewers that bought the game and are playing it.
I am sure Eskimo Joe is very happy.
I really enjoy your videos. Glad I stumbled onto them. Great content.
Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you're here! 🙏
Does keyboard has magnets to keep it close?
No, it doesn't
Good video. Definitely changed my mind, lower performance for a bigger screen. I'll check it out down the line, see how performance improves. Using legion go atm.
Pretty confident OneNet will have to sell an AMD version later in the year or next.
I'm keeping my current Intel order but will get an AMD variant once it's available and give the Intel one to a lucky relative.
Very well-done video that had me subscribing shortly after. Great job!
GUYS WHAT WOULD BE BEST THIS TABLET OR THE ASUS ROG Z13 please let me know.
I was so close to buying but seeing the benchmarks makes me have to wait for a similar handheld with amd
Thank you for this video. Made me confirm I should avoid intel ARC gpu.
Just picked up a Legion Go, but to be honest this looks like it checks even more boxes (except the very crucial one of affordability). I'm a Mac/iPhone user so having a laptop replacement/gaming console all-in-one isn't a priority for me since Windows isn't my ecosystem. The weakness of the keyboard though is a big issue were I to consider the X1. I suppose a keyboard that's 80% there is better than none at all but I'd have to experience it myself. I wish they would have incorporate the kickstand as you mentioned. That's one of my favorite features of the Legion Go, it's a perfect complement to the big screen which is still portable enough to travel with.
usbc port로 모니터 화면이 출력됩니까 ?
Yes! 🙏🙏
How was the sound of the fan? Was there any coil whine as well?
Fan was only really audible at very high TDPs (28w). I didn't notice any coil whine. The cooling is actually very solid on here.

It would have been much more clever to say “Let’s see if this meteor has the impact to *wipe out* the competition”
You know, like wiping out the dinosaurs?
Hopefully Intel will stay committed to working on drivers in the coming months and beyond. When you look at synthetics you can see the chip has raw potential to at least compete more closely with the 7840u/8840u than it is right now.
Maybe I'm crazy but I am sticking with my X1 + OneXGPU preorder (32gb + 2tb version). It seems to me that I can expect a "low res 30 fps" experience out of the iGPU even with high-end games, which to me feels acceptable. Realistically, I spend 80%+ of my gaming time in a position to use an outlet/charger, so Oculink + OneXGPU will be accessible when I want/need higher performance levels anyway.
Ultimately, the X1 is the only device in this market so far to truly capture the 3-in-1 concept that can basically be everything from a reading tablet, to a gaming handheld, to a production laptop, to a gaming PC hooked up to my big screen TV. Truly "all in one" and in a portable package to boot. So I guess you could say I'm more bought into the form factor than the chipset, and fwiw I've always been one to gravitate towards more "unique" technology for whatever reason. Crossing my fingers on this one lol.
Gotta wonder why they're sending out review units of a 3-in-1 device with one of the modes completely missing and a second still in prototyping.
Did you run any performance tests at higher than 25W? You show the handhelds built around a ryzen 7040 chip outperforming this significantly within their own ideal power range, but the settings on this range much higher by default so I'd definitely like to see how it compares at max power. Yeah battery life and thermals would suffer, but this device already has a bigger batter and seems to have better cooling than any of the direct competitors, which makes me think that the whole thing was optimized for a significantly higher TDP...
They don't support there products no updates they just nove on to next project
I've been looking for a tablet to replace my 10 inch Galaxy S9. I love the Galaxy but I've become to accustomed to various Github app only available on Windows 11 so I'd like to switch operating systems.
The Oculink is a big draw on the X1 but I'm not certain if the bulk would defeat the convenience I get with a slim Android tablet. I'm also not sure if I'd miss the AMOLED display I really love about the Galaxy and if the LTPS display would mostly satisfy.
Great video. I'm watching mostly for the 155H performance, I would like to buy the LG Gram Pro 2in1, it calls my attention and I plan to use a PS4 controller with it, great showcase. Thank you very much for all the details.
Great device too bad the chips power is a deal breaker
Danke!
Wow, thank you so much! 🤗🙏
I was concerned what the new intel chips can do. What about older Direct X games. Arc has been known to stuggle when you go back in time, but something like this tablet would be great for older DX 9, 10, and 11 games.
maybe you could stop those low wattage tests and come straight to maximum 35w test because when i play game i alway plug in, portable is only for web browsing....
He's doing everything for everybody not just you lol typical you think the world revolves around you just kidding have a good day
@@chrismartin3959 everybody? so why not teste on both low and maximum wattages, why only low wattages? just claiming "or this is a portable device so people only use it with low wattage to reserve battery life and never plug in" is bullshit
Subscribed! Thanks for the video mate. I have been looking to get something that can do both gaming and I can also write some code (software engineering) on it for my work.
frees up ram ??? cause it never had enough ram to start with
Switch ryuinjx and ps3 rpcs3 running well?
Why getting this instead of Z Flow 13 i9/4060 for few hundred bucks more but with more support and longevity?
Is the screen oled?
No, it isn't. The panel is LTPS, which is quite nice looking.
Good review but being unreleased hopefully we'll see optimizations to increase performance once it's released
I can't really fo the math myself. How is this compare to, lets say, an Asus ROG Ally?
The lack of AVX-512 is unfortunate for things like PS3 emulation.
I just don’t see how this intel chip can hang with 7840u..
Turnip drivers are definitely the way to go with a Snapdragon device.
i got my zenbook duo 2024 120hz oled, ultra 7 155H & 16gb ram few days ago.. in the asus system setting app i put 8gb allocation to the arc GPU & the fan speed option to performance mode with the AC power and was able to play all games on high setting with few tweaks in graphics setting of the games which i couldn't believe a laptop without RTX can even do lol. Any more tips?
I have an Asus A16 AMD (All Advantage Series) 7735hs with RX7700S 8gb GDDR6,16gb ddr5, and its able to play any game (so far) on ultra/very high settings @1440p
I did upgrade the ram from 16gb 4800mhz to 32gb of 5600mhz, but even before I upgraded the ram, it was able to play games @1440p on ultra/high settings.
I wouldn't talk so many points about the keyboard if it is a prototype.
How do I get a retro dad sticker and other channel merchandise?
if i put it on TV is OneXPlayer X1 is going to charge
It is work or not ? 🤔
I’m excited for this. I preordered the same one you showed except I got the 2tb version. Great video.
should i buy this or a gaming laptop ?
It's the same keyboard from the original OXP, it's absolute trash.
You have it? Why its trash?
@@ramontrevino3170 because it doesn't lie flat on the table for one, and the track-pad is unresponsive, did you not watch the video? He explains it.
the intel chip is built for highger watt
Very thorough review!
Using Intel was a mistake
That surface detachable keyboard you have is nice! I gotta invest in one of those for when my X1 arrives.
can it run linux?
Why not? You can put linux on anything no?
@@tnt_champ1002 yes, but not completely when it has things like custom buttons and touchscreens - need drivers that support the hardware if it doesnt have one already
It's very pocketable.
Can this run granturismo 6? Id be nice if you can show it
