1
00:00:02,159 --> 00:00:09,679
you guys remember this impressive little number right full-fledged Windows gaming

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:12,160
pc got a slide-up screen and keyboard

3
00:00:09,679 --> 00:00:16,560
pocketable form factor hold on gotta lose my phone here bam

4
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,480
pretty freaking sweet except i don't know screen's a little

5
00:00:19,199 --> 00:00:27,760
small isn't it that is where this comes in meet

6
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:30,560
the one x player a powerful portable

7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:38,079
gaming machine with a screen that absolutely dwarfs the gpd win3

8
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:43,440
look at the size of this thing and it's coming in to crush the growing

9
00:00:40,399 --> 00:00:44,960
competition in this handheld pc market

10
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:48,800
okay handheld yeah it's handheld pocketable

11
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,760
hold on

12
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:02,719
maybe not so much but what is so much is my excitement to

13
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:06,560
tell you about our sponsor nord pass store your passwords in a single place

safe with nordpass password manager learn more at the end of this video

16
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,880
this is actually a keyboard dock connector so we don't have it

17
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:31,840
unfortunately it's an optional accessory but you can see how it works there's a couple magnets right there so you pop

18
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,960
that puppy on you kick out the nintendo switch style kickstand and you know

19
00:01:33,439 --> 00:01:39,119
you're on a plane you put on the seat tray or whatever and it's kind of like a

20
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:44,399
combination between a surface pro and a netbook because while the display is big

21
00:01:41,759 --> 00:01:48,000
for a handheld gaming console it's not exactly big for a computer the good news

22
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:54,640
though is that moving right around to the front let's waste no time getting to

23
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:57,360
this screen it is a 2560 by 1600 8.4

24
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:03,119
inch ips display it's not HDR or anything like that but it looks freaking

25
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,880
awesome while gaming and has a silly

26
00:02:03,119 --> 00:02:09,360
amount of pixel density for regular usage the colors are what i would

27
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:14,720
describe as good enough brightness is also good enough and while 60 hertz

28
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:18,480
isn't the best thing ever if a device like this you're going to be lucky to be

29
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:23,280
getting more than 60 FPS in any modern games anyway so

30
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:27,599
i think it's pretty much a win moving around to the back we've got two intakes

31
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:32,160
for what looks like a pretty beefy cooling system what the devil do they

32
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:37,519
have in here as well as volume up and down mute as well as a fingerprint

33
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:42,480
sensor over here of course a lot of the business is up on the top because it is

34
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:46,959
a full-fledged pc it has full-fledged pcio so you've got the cooling vents

35
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:50,800
that i talked about before microphone headphone combo jack two usb type cs

36
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:55,920
this one right here is labeled for charging micro sd which is super nice i

37
00:02:53,680 --> 00:03:00,560
wouldn't load up a pc game on a micro sd card but if i was playing older emulated

38
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:05,200
games for example it's more than fast enough for that as well as usb 3. that

39
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:09,519
puts it in pretty close contention with the a and neo for its i o the only thing

40
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:13,599
really missing here is that i would really prefer to have a bottom mounted

41
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:18,400
charging port so that when i'm gaming it's hanging off the bottom and

42
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,480
not off the top oh right gaming let's

43
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:24,159
talk about the controller so it's an xbox style controller there's your start

44
00:03:22,959 --> 00:03:29,680
there's your select i don't know whatever i'm a snes kid um got your

45
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:34,720
analog clicks okay

46
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:38,560
a little mushy i would say resistance on the joysticks though is

47
00:03:36,799 --> 00:03:44,000
pretty darn good abx wise

48
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:48,879
also a touch mushy d-pad not bad considering how bad modern

49
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:53,200
d-pads are i would consider this to be very acceptable and this is really cool

50
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:57,599
so you've got your right and left shoulder buttons but you've also got

51
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:01,760
right and left triggers and unlike the a and neo where these are just one zero

52
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:07,439
binary states these are analog

53
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:10,319
v interesting especially if you're into racing games or something like that

54
00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:14,640
we've got a keyboard button here which brings up the on-screen keyboard not the

55
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:18,959
good on-screen keyboard unfortunately i wish that it just did that that would be

56
00:04:16,799 --> 00:04:23,759
better and if you hold it it'll actually illuminate see watch this boop and now

57
00:04:21,759 --> 00:04:28,000
you can use your joystick as a mouse this needs some work fortunately this is

58
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,520
still an early access product so they've got some time to tune this but it takes

59
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:35,840
an awful long time to move the mouse across the screen right now that's not

60
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:40,400
great i also got a turbo button let's talk about what that means so inside

61
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:47,440
here you can get anywhere from a core i5 1135 g7 all the way up to a core i7 1185

62
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:52,880
g7 which the 1x player indiegogo video calls the

63
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:57,680
world's most powerful CPU because i guess they haven't heard of

64
00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:05,120
desktop cpus for example anyway it's equipped with up to 16 gigs of 4266 lp

65
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:09,440
ddr4 memory Intel's iris xc graphics as

66
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:11,199
well as 512 gigs of m.2 storage and a 60

67
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:15,120
watt hour battery which they say can last for five to six hours with light

68
00:05:13,039 --> 00:05:19,520
usage or two to three hours while gaming so that's pretty competitive with other

69
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:23,919
handhelds that we've seen like this which is good considering the size of

70
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:27,520
the freaking screen but your battery life is going to go down a little bit if

71
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:31,759
you go into turbo mode the cooling system for this thing apparently takes

72
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:35,000
up an inordinate amount of space inside it because it's designed to handle up to

73
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,080
the full 28 watt TDP

74
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:42,880
of this CPU why don't we go ahead and open it up and have a look at that you

75
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:47,360
want to turn it off before you open it up no not really

76
00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:50,800
i want to see it working i want to know what makes it tick david

77
00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:57,280
yeah we only have one there's a prototype af well it's basically all

78
00:05:54,639 --> 00:06:00,639
cooling system and battery as advertised here's a controller

79
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:04,960
here's another controller these are actually surprisingly big speakers i've

80
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:09,360
got high hopes for the integrated audio here's the magnets that we found for the

81
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:14,639
keyboard dock one two that one looks pretty cheaply mounted but uh whatever

82
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:19,520
when i lost count doesn't matter unfortunately i don't really have a good

83
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:23,440
look at the inner guts i'm assuming that this thermal pad right here is probably

84
00:06:21,919 --> 00:06:28,400
for the SSD i don't want to break it before we make

85
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:29,280
a video yep everything still seems to be

86
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:34,319
working which is good do we have cinebench on here or anything like that i gotta say

87
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:39,360
the difference in screen resolution between this and the gpd win three and

88
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:42,960
the a neo makes a huge difference even being close to it like this like i would

89
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:50,400
with a handheld it is just it's crisp 2560 by 1600 is a lot of

90
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:53,440
pixels for this screen size are we turboed right now oh yeah we turboed

91
00:06:52,240 --> 00:07:02,000
let's see what kind of performance we can get we're going to plug in i want to see what this thing can freaking do on a

92
00:06:57,599 --> 00:07:03,759
drag strip holy shnikeys your pc huh she

93
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:08,800
a goer know what i mean know what i mean well base is 2.8 this is three point

94
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:13,680
almost one not too flippin shabby considering this

95
00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:17,680
is a quad core processor i mean do you remember when quad cores at you know

96
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:21,919
three gigahertz and change was the desktop experience actually not that

97
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:25,840
long ago it's a little loud

98
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:30,800
not crazy loud and actually unsurprisingly not that hot all

99
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,919
things considered of course we don't have the onboard GPU running yet we're

100
00:07:32,479 --> 00:07:37,039
going to fire up a game real quick here i just want to see what the score is

101
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:44,160
5106 points that's about 75 as fast as a

102
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:46,400
core i7 7700k so like i said not that

103
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:49,759
far off desktop performance just a few short years ago let's see how it handles

104
00:07:48,479 --> 00:07:54,560
something kind of esports we're going to start with rocket league hmm

105
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,360
remember how i said i had high hopes for the speakers david

106
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:02,240
well i did hello

107
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:06,639
all right the controller's got a bit of a weird behavior where if you have it in

108
00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:11,840
mouse mode when you launch the game and then try to switch it back to gamepad

109
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:16,479
mode the game won't always pick it up so let's go ahead and close the game and

110
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:22,800
give that another try here controller's working now and we are gonna go full

111
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:26,160
moon shot here running at 2560 by 1600

112
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:28,000
basically maxed out details uncapped

113
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,039
frames per second and then disabling motion blur and let's see what we get

114
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:35,760
here all right that is a lot of resolution for a device

115
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:41,279
this size not a lot of light though yeah i take back what i said before

116
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:46,880
about the display being pretty decent we are sitting at anywhere from around 35

117
00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:48,959
to 45 FPS this is like super playable

118
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:52,000
how how close can you get wait what what do you mean battery's

119
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:55,519
running low i am plugged in right now one of the outlets is unplugged we might

120
00:08:53,920 --> 00:09:00,560
get some more performance oh man the brightness went way up

121
00:08:57,839 --> 00:09:04,240
oh it was just i thought we were in the i thought we were in the plugged in

122
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:09,040
profile oh my goodness we are getting like 40

123
00:09:06,959 --> 00:09:14,080
FPS now actually that looks pretty similar in terms of performance but the

124
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:16,640
display looks way better it's running

125
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:21,360
like max details one complaint though something i'm noticing is that the like

126
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:26,000
the plastics and the molding they lack refinement compared to the a neo

127
00:09:23,839 --> 00:09:30,240
which conveniently i happen to have right here they've done a better job of

128
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:33,839
rounding off the bottom so that it rests in your palms a little bit better and

129
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:38,240
especially when you consider how flipping heavy this thing is i'm

130
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:42,880
noticing even after sitting here and using it for the last like 15 minutes in

131
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:47,040
a row it kind of is digging in a little bit it's not too comfortable but

132
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:50,880
there's something that i also realized while i was talking to you guys about it

133
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:55,920
the screen on this thing it's not just a little bigger it's a lot

134
00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:00,560
bigger to the point where i don't even think i would use it like this if i'm

135
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:05,600
sitting like this right how close would this have to be to be equivalent this is

136
00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:10,079
very scientific about there so that buys you like an

137
00:10:07,839 --> 00:10:13,760
extra at least three or four inches and you know what they say three or four

138
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:17,839
inches is a lot you know what i want to do though we've got kind of a unique

139
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:24,160
opportunity with both Intel xc graphics and a ryzen 4500u both in like mobile

140
00:10:21,519 --> 00:10:28,160
game console form factors let's see how they stack up i'm gonna run this

141
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:31,920
at exactly the same resolution and settings as that one

142
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,760
also we should probably turn turbo off nobody's gonna use that it's like gonna

143
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:39,920
kill your battery life the performance of these is impressively close so what

144
00:10:37,680 --> 00:10:45,200
it really comes down to is who makes the game console design that you prefer

145
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:49,800
and also some other things it's a bit tangential to my point but hey the usb

146
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:54,480
port works transferring to this drive at 636 megabytes a second real casually

147
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:59,120
right now that's the limit of this drive not the limit of this port pretty sweet

148
00:10:57,519 --> 00:11:06,640
everything seems to be going well in rpcs three running persona 5 which is

149
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,640
a pretty demanding playstation 3 game

150
00:11:08,399 --> 00:11:14,160
and there you go oh and it's done bud so

151
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:18,640
there you have it while Intel's onboard xe graphics definitely have a lot of

152
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:23,440
potential right now the drivers have some catching up to do compared to AMD

153
00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:27,519
NVIDIA and for that matter even Intel's older on-board graphics for comparison

154
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:36,240
okay that's not a lot of FPS but

155
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:40,240
it is running i bet we could get it running better if we spend some more

156
00:11:38,079 --> 00:11:44,240
time on it though there we go look at that

157
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:49,440
dang we getting like almost 30 FPS basically 30 FPS locked emulating that

158
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:54,240
on onboard graphics pretty freaking cool and i do have hope for xe it's just that

159
00:11:52,800 --> 00:12:00,000
the drivers are clearly not there yet couldn't even

160
00:11:55,839 --> 00:12:01,680
launch and AMD's running at 30 FPS

161
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:06,720
of course that's not the device the video is about let's go back to the 1x

162
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:12,720
player no switch yuzu doesn't work either what

163
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:18,240
we can do though is we can run games in dolphin so let's start with super mario

164
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:20,720
64. look at that ladies and gentlemen

165
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:23,040
it's smooth n64 isn't the only thing you can do in dolphin of course let's go

166
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:27,279
ahead and try something a little more demanding i'll play some wii games

167
00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:31,120
ladies and gentlemen oh that man that

168
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:34,800
oh that joystick really gets in the way of what's shaking here

169
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:39,279
man this is a okay i'm actually sorry david can i just

170
00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:43,600
hold it where it's comfortable okay because this is

171
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:47,279
awesome the size of this screen is a complete game changer compared to the

172
00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:53,120
aneo if Intel can get their drivers figured out this is freaking awesome and

173
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:57,040
to be clear guys it's not just Intel the entire development community around

174
00:12:55,120 --> 00:13:01,120
these emulators has to figure out how to get the most out of xe

175
00:12:58,959 --> 00:13:04,639
graphics this button was a really good idea being able to be full screen in an

176
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:09,440
emulator that doesn't have kind of any meaningful way to oh wow okay i guess

177
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,399
you could do that wait a second is that a Windows 10 feature

178
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,519
oh that's freaking awesome never mind well whatever it's still nice to have a

179
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:20,399
button that just takes you back to the desktop can you even believe this is like a

180
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,800
desktop background people use at work grow up

181
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:28,639
for those of you who aren't familiar what we're doing now is not running apex

182
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,680
legends natively on this but rather streaming it from a gaming desktop

183
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:37,519
upstairs that's one of the ways that you can have a gaming experience on these mobile

184
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:41,839
devices if you already have a gaming pc oh wow is this like actually your

185
00:13:39,199 --> 00:13:41,839
account jesse

186
00:13:43,279 --> 00:13:50,560
well not settings like your record oh i'm not very good at this game we're

187
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:54,079
going to double our kill count today you just watch deploy a heel drone how

188
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:59,279
do i do that oh no you're dead oh i'm dead i'm bleeding out yeah oh wow i just

189
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:04,320
got did i just get my face stomped on yeah wow that was really fast

190
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:09,360
now we're running on the hardware directly and the point of firing up something like batman arkham asylum is

191
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:12,800
to show that with the enormous back catalog of pc games that are out there

192
00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:16,639
just because it's a triple a doesn't mean you won't be able to run it on a

193
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:21,360
handheld sure something newer like apex legends probably not gonna run that

194
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:26,160
great but an older title like this i have it absolutely cranked you're seeing

195
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:32,800
a couple stutters and hiccups here but that is not bad native res it's like

196
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:35,040
actually pretty dang smooth

197
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:39,199
and this is not a terrible looking game obviously the textures aren't very

198
00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:44,320
modern generation and stuff like that like it's kind of flat looking compared

199
00:14:40,959 --> 00:14:46,639
to something newer but it's not bad of

200
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:50,079
course that's before we talk about price after the indiegogo is complete the base

201
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:55,839
model is going to start at over a thousand dollars with the top-end core

202
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:58,240
i7 2 terabyte one running 1600 us

203
00:14:55,839 --> 00:15:02,959
dollars and that's to say nothing of the fact that we know absolutely

204
00:15:00,959 --> 00:15:06,959
nothing about this company other than that apparently they have a silk screen

205
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,920
on here that says powered by 10 cent games so

206
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:14,160
there's a good chance that they will actually deliver hardware but unlike

207
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:17,920
someone like gpd where we know that they have a long track record of delivering

208
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,399
exactly what they say they are and then actually following up with support for

209
00:15:19,279 --> 00:15:24,639
the devices we just have no idea what that's going

210
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:28,720
to look like it's an utterly unique experience though with the size of this

211
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:33,519
screen and while i do have some concerns about Intel's xc driver support in the

212
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:36,399
years to come it's Intel so that's an area where i have confidence that

213
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:40,000
they're going to mostly get that stuff figured out so feel free to check it out
