I feel fooled. OneXPlayer X1 after 2 months

[@trysometech52]

UPD: The new BIOS, their software and Intel drivers are finally out and tested. Also, after the update I found an option to disable Resizable Bar in BIOS and now performance with eGPU is significantly improved. Performance and stability with integrated graphics is also better. This means that some of my complaints are no longer relevant. And it just reinforces my point that we've been beta testing OneXplayer X1 for months.

How has the V3 been for you so far? The lack of the Oculink port (I think) is what pushed me towards the X1, but I really would have waited for the AMD X1 mini variant if I had known it was going to come out soon...

[@choboutube]

@@Magnosummit I haven't been using it that much as I'm busy with a work project and I don't want to transition to another device. It seems fine. A bit thicker than I expected but the performance seems to be there. I'd been looking at upgrading from the Steam Deck for a while, considering Legion Go, mini PCs etc. On paper, this v3 seemed to be like a Legion Go on steroids, plus capable of being a work device too. My only gripe so far is that the battery drain at rest/sleep seems higher than I expected, there's probably a setting somewhere to set. I like the idea of oculink for 'maximizing' gpus and getting rid of one bottleneck, but then the occasional gaming that I do probably wouldn't tax a decent TB eGPU anyway. I did assemble an aliexpress oculink gpu that I managed to get working with my Hades Canyon with non-working TB ports. Which is nice.

[@Magnosummit]

@@choboutube I hope it handles whatever you need well. I can confirm, in the 3 hours or so that I've used the Intel equipped X1, I think I can get by with it. Time will tell, but I got it to be a portable device with a sufficiently sized screen for gaming (compared to my Win 4 with a 6 inch screen).

Overall i will not buy any intel APU device again without dedicated GPU. And the new and also the old AMD APUs deliver way much more performance for the same price....overall you can use it as a small working laptop, but since it is marketed as a gaming device, it is really a bad product. You can play older titles or emulation quite well, but considering the price there are way better and cheaper devices with the same or better performce...

Also, more and more consoles are showing detachable controllers. The industry needs to agree on a standard for the physical connector and protocol and charging and wireless protocol, so I can have a choice of controllers. I really like this form factor.

Intel turbo boost, boost the CPU performance. This can be good for games that utilize the CPU more. However, games that are more GPU hungry it's better to turn off so the GPU gets more power.

In theory - yes, but here when I turn it ON even with eGPU connected - performance still the same

@@trysometech52 that makes sense since the CPU would be the bottleneck in that situation. Then you don’t want to turn off Turbo boost. However if the GPU is bottlenecked then it could help in some apps. It’s the same when playing a game at 1080p and 4k. Most games you’ll get similar performance at 4k with most CPUs in the top end where the weaker CPUs will get less performance in 1080p with the same GPU.

I honestly might sell all of my onexplayer handhelds and try legion go ...legion go has accessories...good support and their game center works ...onex is letting me down :( i guess my onexplayer 1 was the best experience and that bricked shipped it away for 2 months ... anything after is a wash

[@jaimepadron8863]

What a nice review and opinion about this product, for sure I saw the video from ETA Prime talking about this product and I said omg, this is a revolution but I was afraid of those Chinese companies, that's why I prefer buying something for known brands like asus or lenovo, If you wanna play in a handheld don't try those Frankensteins these companies release, let's go to the safe route and that's it.

[@trysometech52]

I wouldn't generalize about all Chinese companies, I'm sure there are plenty of good ones out there.

[@theo5675]

I was gonna get the X1 mini but after watching this one idk I’m sure they didn’t fix the issues AMD isn’t goin to fix oculink ports and thermal issues That’s more quality control

[@Caba-Rojo]

I backed out of this one at the last minute, then bought an Ayaneo Kun. Love the Kun. Happy I backed out.

[@MohammedBasith-kx8wh]

Should i buy ASUS rog ally or onexplayer x1?

[@outdoorstylelife]

legion go

[@TheMaztercom]

Whats the point of a handheld if u need eGPU to play, just buy a pc

[@trysometech52]

I think there's a future in this form factor. The hardware is just not there yet

[@swenic]

Come on... Did eta prime ever not like a product he reviewed?

[@tiagosantos680]

I wish this guy review more stuff, tired of ETA where everything is "perfect", really misleading

[@IbadGrammarX]

glad buy steam deck cheap less headache

[@Simone-k3p]

hey thats not all bad, you got a free desktop fan

[@trysometech52]

I like the way you think

[@rbtmods]

Thanks. I will not buy the Mini

[@michaelcarson8375]

Thanks for finally releasing this video. Did you try the original egpu dock after you got the new egpu working? Did you try to go back to the first bios the device came with? The AMD model users will experience they same as the Intel users. How did the 4090 run by the way? ETA Prime only TESTed the eGPU that they are selling for the tablet, so of course THAT worked great. By the way His testing is always only on emulation and RARELY on any stressful modern PC title and No I do not count GTA V... It looks like the problem it the bios is not flushed out. I found it shady that they were only offering support on discord and that's a RED FLAG. I view all tablet/phone speakers as junk and use bluetooth devices with using audio. It also sounds like their bios support for their OCulink port is garbage. Another "cheap" chinese junk item. No matter what happens please to leave the video up because it's relevant AT THE TIME you uploaded it.

[@trysometech52]

Bios has nothing to do with my first eGPU dock, it will not work because there is no power button = no handshake between the devices (as far as I see it). Moreover, it was a pre-release version of the bios and I got it again by their mistake, so of course I didn't try to roll back to it. I sold my PC and completely switched to this garbage as a PC replacement. So I don't have the 4090 anymore ETA Prime is just a marketplace channel, he never says anything bad about the product. And they have problems even with original eGPU dock - you can find videos on how to set it up to avoid drivers issues, or a dozens of messages on their Discord channel

[@michaelcarson8375]

@@trysometech52 So that older dock might work if you jumpered the PSU and started it up first, got it. Yeah I get it about ETA prime, I stopped watch him for that reason.

[@michaelcarson8375]

@@trysometech52 I use to be an early adopted myself. Now I always get the new stuff up and running in stable condition first before I sell my old stuff. You lose out on getting the best value for your own stuff, BUT you avoid putting good money after bad sunk costs. One of the products that got me was the 52X zen research cdrom drive when 4x drives were the norm. The trick with that drive was it copied discs to the hard drive, but it required it's own disk partition to do so.

[@robertbigkrbk7692]

​@@michaelcarson8375oculink is best Connection so far I can play on high detail in every game in 4k. Usb 4 is bad no all games work and lost much more power of gpu

[@robertbigkrbk7692]

I Got x1 and is work great i Got 22k in 3dmark and can play for every game 4k on my tv. I use for now many new hangeld console and all have same learning curve. I speed for my oculink plate 25$. You staggering is charger or cable problems if my cable start to damaged i got random stugger. Is mayby good reviue from non IT person. Is pc device is huge diference make even windows how and what edicion You install.

[@evan-du3vk]

When I saw it first time mine first thought was it's to big. I want handhold device to not be stationary. That I can use it and take it everywhere.

[@charleyweinhardt]

I think anybody that looks at the controller layout between the thumb stick and buttons is fooling themselves thinking that it could be playable. I don't know how Nintendo made it so long without at least making replacement joycons. Before choosing the legion go I saw this and dismissed this as an option.
