WEBVTT

00:00:02.159 --> 00:00:09.679
you guys remember this impressive little number right full-fledged Windows gaming

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:12.160
pc got a slide-up screen and keyboard

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:16.560
pocketable form factor hold on gotta lose my phone here bam

00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:20.480
pretty freaking sweet except i don't know screen's a little

00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:27.760
small isn't it that is where this comes in meet

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:30.560
the one x player a powerful portable

00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:38.079
gaming machine with a screen that absolutely dwarfs the gpd win3

00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:43.440
look at the size of this thing and it's coming in to crush the growing

00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:44.960
competition in this handheld pc market

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:48.800
okay handheld yeah it's handheld pocketable

00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:51.760
hold on

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:02.719
maybe not so much but what is so much is my excitement to

00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:06.560
tell you about our sponsor nord pass store your passwords in a single place

00:01:21.520 --> 00:01:26.880
this is actually a keyboard dock connector so we don't have it

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

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:34.960
that puppy on you kick out the nintendo switch style kickstand and you know

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

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:44.399
combination between a surface pro and a netbook because while the display is big

00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:48.000
for a handheld gaming console it's not exactly big for a computer the good news

00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:54.640
though is that moving right around to the front let's waste no time getting to

00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:57.360
this screen it is a 2560 by 1600 8.4

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:03.119
inch ips display it's not HDR or anything like that but it looks freaking

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:04.880
awesome while gaming and has a silly

00:02:03.119 --> 00:02:09.360
amount of pixel density for regular usage the colors are what i would

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:14.720
describe as good enough brightness is also good enough and while 60 hertz

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

00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:23.280
getting more than 60 FPS in any modern games anyway so

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

00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:32.160
for what looks like a pretty beefy cooling system what the devil do they

00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:37.519
have in here as well as volume up and down mute as well as a fingerprint

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

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:46.959
a full-fledged pc it has full-fledged pcio so you've got the cooling vents

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:50.800
that i talked about before microphone headphone combo jack two usb type cs

00:02:49.760 --> 00:02:55.920
this one right here is labeled for charging micro sd which is super nice i

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

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

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

00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:13.599
really missing here is that i would really prefer to have a bottom mounted

00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:18.400
charging port so that when i'm gaming it's hanging off the bottom and

00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:20.480
not off the top oh right gaming let's

00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:24.159
talk about the controller so it's an xbox style controller there's your start

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

00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:34.720
analog clicks okay

00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:38.560
a little mushy i would say resistance on the joysticks though is

00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:44.000
pretty darn good abx wise

00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:48.879
also a touch mushy d-pad not bad considering how bad modern

00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:53.200
d-pads are i would consider this to be very acceptable and this is really cool

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:57.599
so you've got your right and left shoulder buttons but you've also got

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:01.760
right and left triggers and unlike the a and neo where these are just one zero

00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:07.439
binary states these are analog

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:10.319
v interesting especially if you're into racing games or something like that

00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:14.640
we've got a keyboard button here which brings up the on-screen keyboard not the

00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:18.959
good on-screen keyboard unfortunately i wish that it just did that that would be

00:04:16.799 --> 00:04:23.759
better and if you hold it it'll actually illuminate see watch this boop and now

00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:28.000
you can use your joystick as a mouse this needs some work fortunately this is

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

00:04:29.520 --> 00:04:35.840
an awful long time to move the mouse across the screen right now that's not

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:40.400
great i also got a turbo button let's talk about what that means so inside

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

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:52.880
g7 which the 1x player indiegogo video calls the

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:57.680
world's most powerful CPU because i guess they haven't heard of

00:04:54.800 --> 00:05:05.120
desktop cpus for example anyway it's equipped with up to 16 gigs of 4266 lp

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:09.440
ddr4 memory Intel's iris xc graphics as

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:11.199
well as 512 gigs of m.2 storage and a 60

00:05:09.440 --> 00:05:15.120
watt hour battery which they say can last for five to six hours with light

00:05:13.039 --> 00:05:19.520
usage or two to three hours while gaming so that's pretty competitive with other

00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:23.919
handhelds that we've seen like this which is good considering the size of

00:05:21.440 --> 00:05:27.520
the freaking screen but your battery life is going to go down a little bit if

00:05:25.440 --> 00:05:31.759
you go into turbo mode the cooling system for this thing apparently takes

00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:35.000
up an inordinate amount of space inside it because it's designed to handle up to

00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:40.080
the full 28 watt TDP

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

00:05:41.520 --> 00:05:47.360
want to turn it off before you open it up no not really

00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:50.800
i want to see it working i want to know what makes it tick david

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:57.280
yeah we only have one there's a prototype af well it's basically all

00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:00.639
cooling system and battery as advertised here's a controller

00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:04.960
here's another controller these are actually surprisingly big speakers i've

00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:09.360
got high hopes for the integrated audio here's the magnets that we found for the

00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:14.639
keyboard dock one two that one looks pretty cheaply mounted but uh whatever

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:19.520
when i lost count doesn't matter unfortunately i don't really have a good

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:23.440
look at the inner guts i'm assuming that this thermal pad right here is probably

00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:28.400
for the SSD i don't want to break it before we make

00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:29.280
a video yep everything still seems to be

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

00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:39.360
the difference in screen resolution between this and the gpd win three and

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

00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:50.400
with a handheld it is just it's crisp 2560 by 1600 is a lot of

00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:53.440
pixels for this screen size are we turboed right now oh yeah we turboed

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

00:06:57.599 --> 00:07:03.759
drag strip holy shnikeys your pc huh she

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

00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:13.680
almost one not too flippin shabby considering this

00:07:11.919 --> 00:07:17.680
is a quad core processor i mean do you remember when quad cores at you know

00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:21.919
three gigahertz and change was the desktop experience actually not that

00:07:19.840 --> 00:07:25.840
long ago it's a little loud

00:07:23.440 --> 00:07:30.800
not crazy loud and actually unsurprisingly not that hot all

00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:33.919
things considered of course we don't have the onboard GPU running yet we're

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

00:07:37.080 --> 00:07:44.160
5106 points that's about 75 as fast as a

00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:46.400
core i7 7700k so like i said not that

00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:49.759
far off desktop performance just a few short years ago let's see how it handles

00:07:48.479 --> 00:07:54.560
something kind of esports we're going to start with rocket league hmm

00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:57.360
remember how i said i had high hopes for the speakers david

00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:02.240
well i did hello

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

00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:11.840
mouse mode when you launch the game and then try to switch it back to gamepad

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

00:08:14.400 --> 00:08:22.800
give that another try here controller's working now and we are gonna go full

00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:26.160
moon shot here running at 2560 by 1600

00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:28.000
basically maxed out details uncapped

00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:31.039
frames per second and then disabling motion blur and let's see what we get

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:35.760
here all right that is a lot of resolution for a device

00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:41.279
this size not a lot of light though yeah i take back what i said before

00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:46.880
about the display being pretty decent we are sitting at anywhere from around 35

00:08:43.680 --> 00:08:48.959
to 45 FPS this is like super playable

00:08:46.880 --> 00:08:52.000
how how close can you get wait what what do you mean battery's

00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:55.519
running low i am plugged in right now one of the outlets is unplugged we might

00:08:53.920 --> 00:09:00.560
get some more performance oh man the brightness went way up

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

00:09:01.760 --> 00:09:09.040
profile oh my goodness we are getting like 40

00:09:06.959 --> 00:09:14.080
FPS now actually that looks pretty similar in terms of performance but the

00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:16.640
display looks way better it's running

00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:21.360
like max details one complaint though something i'm noticing is that the like

00:09:18.640 --> 00:09:26.000
the plastics and the molding they lack refinement compared to the a neo

00:09:23.839 --> 00:09:30.240
which conveniently i happen to have right here they've done a better job of

00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.839
rounding off the bottom so that it rests in your palms a little bit better and

00:09:32.160 --> 00:09:38.240
especially when you consider how flipping heavy this thing is i'm

00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:42.880
noticing even after sitting here and using it for the last like 15 minutes in

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

00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:50.880
there's something that i also realized while i was talking to you guys about it

00:09:48.800 --> 00:09:55.920
the screen on this thing it's not just a little bigger it's a lot

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

00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:05.600
sitting like this right how close would this have to be to be equivalent this is

00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:10.079
very scientific about there so that buys you like an

00:10:07.839 --> 00:10:13.760
extra at least three or four inches and you know what they say three or four

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

00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:24.160
opportunity with both Intel xc graphics and a ryzen 4500u both in like mobile

00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:28.160
game console form factors let's see how they stack up i'm gonna run this

00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:31.920
at exactly the same resolution and settings as that one

00:10:30.160 --> 00:10:35.760
also we should probably turn turbo off nobody's gonna use that it's like gonna

00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:39.920
kill your battery life the performance of these is impressively close so what

00:10:37.680 --> 00:10:45.200
it really comes down to is who makes the game console design that you prefer

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

00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:54.480
port works transferring to this drive at 636 megabytes a second real casually

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

00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:06.640
everything seems to be going well in rpcs three running persona 5 which is

00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:06.640
a pretty demanding playstation 3 game

00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:14.160
and there you go oh and it's done bud so

00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:18.640
there you have it while Intel's onboard xe graphics definitely have a lot of

00:11:16.560 --> 00:11:23.440
potential right now the drivers have some catching up to do compared to AMD

00:11:20.560 --> 00:11:27.519
NVIDIA and for that matter even Intel's older on-board graphics for comparison

00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:36.240
okay that's not a lot of FPS but

00:11:33.760 --> 00:11:40.240
it is running i bet we could get it running better if we spend some more

00:11:38.079 --> 00:11:44.240
time on it though there we go look at that

00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:49.440
dang we getting like almost 30 FPS basically 30 FPS locked emulating that

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

00:11:52.800 --> 00:12:00.000
the drivers are clearly not there yet couldn't even

00:11:55.839 --> 00:12:01.680
launch and AMD's running at 30 FPS

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

00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:12.720
player no switch yuzu doesn't work either what

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

00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:20.720
64. look at that ladies and gentlemen

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

00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:27.279
ahead and try something a little more demanding i'll play some wii games

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:31.120
ladies and gentlemen oh that man that

00:12:28.800 --> 00:12:34.800
oh that joystick really gets in the way of what's shaking here

00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:39.279
man this is a okay i'm actually sorry david can i just

00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:43.600
hold it where it's comfortable okay because this is

00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:47.279
awesome the size of this screen is a complete game changer compared to the

00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:53.120
aneo if Intel can get their drivers figured out this is freaking awesome and

00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:57.040
to be clear guys it's not just Intel the entire development community around

00:12:55.120 --> 00:13:01.120
these emulators has to figure out how to get the most out of xe

00:12:58.959 --> 00:13:04.639
graphics this button was a really good idea being able to be full screen in an

00:13:02.880 --> 00:13:09.440
emulator that doesn't have kind of any meaningful way to oh wow okay i guess

00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:12.399
you could do that wait a second is that a Windows 10 feature

00:13:10.880 --> 00:13:15.519
oh that's freaking awesome never mind well whatever it's still nice to have a

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

00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.800
desktop background people use at work grow up

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

00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.680
legends natively on this but rather streaming it from a gaming desktop

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

00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:41.839
devices if you already have a gaming pc oh wow is this like actually your

00:13:39.199 --> 00:13:41.839
account jesse

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

00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:54.079
going to double our kill count today you just watch deploy a heel drone how

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

00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:04.320
got did i just get my face stomped on yeah wow that was really fast

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

00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:12.800
to show that with the enormous back catalog of pc games that are out there

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

00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:21.360
handheld sure something newer like apex legends probably not gonna run that

00:14:18.800 --> 00:14:26.160
great but an older title like this i have it absolutely cranked you're seeing

00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:32.800
a couple stutters and hiccups here but that is not bad native res it's like

00:14:29.680 --> 00:14:35.040
actually pretty dang smooth

00:14:32.800 --> 00:14:39.199
and this is not a terrible looking game obviously the textures aren't very

00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:44.320
modern generation and stuff like that like it's kind of flat looking compared

00:14:40.959 --> 00:14:46.639
to something newer but it's not bad of

00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:50.079
course that's before we talk about price after the indiegogo is complete the base

00:14:48.800 --> 00:14:55.839
model is going to start at over a thousand dollars with the top-end core

00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:58.240
i7 2 terabyte one running 1600 us

00:14:55.839 --> 00:15:02.959
dollars and that's to say nothing of the fact that we know absolutely

00:15:00.959 --> 00:15:06.959
nothing about this company other than that apparently they have a silk screen

00:15:05.040 --> 00:15:09.920
on here that says powered by 10 cent games so

00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:14.160
there's a good chance that they will actually deliver hardware but unlike

00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:17.920
someone like gpd where we know that they have a long track record of delivering

00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.399
exactly what they say they are and then actually following up with support for

00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:24.639
the devices we just have no idea what that's going

00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:28.720
to look like it's an utterly unique experience though with the size of this

00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:33.519
screen and while i do have some concerns about Intel's xc driver support in the

00:15:30.880 --> 00:15:36.399
years to come it's Intel so that's an area where i have confidence that

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
