I was dubious how an onboard GPU could possibly handle AAA games but the new intel Iris chip is very impressive.

Due to the Steam Deck being delayed until end of October for my order I became impatient and really liked the looks of this device due to its larger screen. I am very happy I decided to go with the OneXplayer 1s. So far I haven't had any issues which others have reported with the intel chipset drivers which may be because of recent driver updates.

I now have more time for casual gaming because of the portability of the device and not having to sit at my desktop or pull out the laptop, so finally trying some of older games and indie games in my Steam library that I have accumulated over the years but never played.

So far I have tried a mix recent and old AAA games and Indie games without any issues. The only issue for me is because i'm an old PC Gamer and not used to using controllers for FPS games it would be nice to have had a tilt sensor which I think might make FPS games easier for aiming, and a built in touch pad for playing management sims and RTS games. But i'm tinkering with settings so getting used to the controls. The only other issue which is more annoying is the SD Card reader speed, R/W is around 20-30MB which is ok for running emulator games but would have been nice to be able to buy a 1TB SD card with fast 100MB+ RW speeds to expand storage.

Another great feature with the intel model is the ability to add an EGPU so I plan on setting it up to my TV with an EGPU and couple of Xbox controllers to turn it into a family console.

I have played GTA V and also tried Elite Dangerous on this and the heat pipes and fans on this thing do a great job. At no point has the device at the back become hot and the fan noise is very quiet IMO.

I am loving this device, powerful enough and super convenient for casual gaming.

I expected the OXP 4800U to be good but so far its very much exceeded my expectations.

I've got a SteamDeck on reserve but its an age away and I wanted something to PC game on the go now. After much research I'd Settled on and Aya Neo because the AMD APUs appeared better than the Intel ones. And then I noticed something, the OXP comes with a micro SD, Not sure how I missed that on my research. So that swung it.. The 5700U models were out of my price range but the 4800U was perfect. There are tools that let you tweak the TDP and the clock speeds so you can tailor the performance, but so far I've not needed to.

The OXP is pretty massive, but for lap gaming its perfect. Not sure you'd play it holding above your head in bed.

The display is brilliant, the APU will struggle to display the screen at native resolution for the most modern AAA titles but if you don't mind tweaking games you'll get a very playable experience. I've found aiming for SteamDeck type settings gets the most out of the OXP. So I aim for 720p or 800p, low to medium settings and run in power saving mode, so the CPU rarely pulls more than 15W which means very good battery life and @30+ fps in AAA games and massive frames in indies, so worth locking them to 60fps which will reduce the power even more.

Install a mix of big budget games and indie and use the conservative settings and you'll have hours of gameplay in the palm of your hands.

Not only can you run your Steam library but you can use your Origin, Epic, Amazon games and GoG all on one device. Currently I'm running my Epic games on a 512gb SD and also some rpcs3 emulation.

My biggest bit of advice is pay the extra for the carry case, its a tight fit but it protects the OXP perfectly.

Worst thing about the console isn't the console itself, its the 65W charger. 1. the supplied USB is too short, could do with a decent 3mtr one (which I bought, make sure its a PD capable one). 2. the charger itself is very small (presumable its one of these never gallium nitride GaN ones) but it doesn't get very hot and it charges brilliantly fast. But the biggest issue I have is the UK adaptor, which is a pretty lose fit so you find the charger starts to come away from the adaptor after a short time in the wall although its never stopped charging. I'd suggest getting a spot of glue to hold it tightly in place.

The OXP came supplied with Windows 11, which I planned on upgrading too so this saved me some time. Its still a little unstable in that i've had a couple of apps stop working and the only fix was uninstall and reinstall. One of these apps being FxSound audio enhancer, which I suggest you try as it really improves the quality of the sound from the OXP.

I aim to create a channel mostly dedicated to showing the resolution I use for best balance of fidelity/fps and battery life so keep your eyes peeled.

Great little machine - played everything I’ve thrown at it with excellent graphics, highly recommended

I wanted the SteamDeck but got put off by the long wait til after Q2 (now its pushed to Q3) and the limited game support (Destiny 2 my fav and non steam games) I decided to take the plunge and go for an alternative handheld.

Couldnt decide, too many options. So I contact Customer Support after hours with a list of games I wanted to play. They got back just after opening hours with a recommendation. I took their word for it and I have no regrets.

Came next day. Happy days! Fairly easy to setup; basic windows installation like with any new PC or fresh install

Been playing Destiny 2, GTAV, No Mans Sky, Project Cars 2, Forza etc no issues at around 60fps.

Sure the resolution and graphic settings are a bit lower than my gaming PC, but on a screen that size with the type of panel, you can't notice!

Plus with eGPU support, you can boost that performance. I'm lucky enough to have kept my 970 as a backup GPU after upgrading to the 2070S a few years ago.

I'm happy as I can game again without going into my home office and not missing out on time with the family.

I would recommend that if you have your games downloaded on your PC, use an external HDD to transfer them over. I transferred over 100gb in 30 mins whereas that would take at least 4-5 hours to download. Shame you cant do the same with MS games, but thats no fault of the device.

Got my OneXPlayer yesterday. I was a little worried because of all the reported issues with the device, but after having some hands on experience, I can say that I have fixed any hiccups that have come my way already, and all of them so far are not the OneXPlayers fault, but Windows'. I would not recommend this device for the untechnical minded, as it does require some troubleshooting. Windows 11 is still in its infancy, so all my issues so far have been driver related. I also have not played a game on it yet due to my slow internet download speed, but so far, I am very happy with this device. All of my plug and play accessories have work flawlessly. It feels amazing in the hand. Love the display. Touch pad feels good. 10/10 would recommend if you know how to tell Windows to get it together.
