OneXPlayer X1 Pro Revs Up with Intel Core Ultra 7
The handheld gaming PC world is more thrilling now. OneXPlayer has boosted its X1 Pro with Intel's new Core Ultra 7 255H processor from the Arrow Lake-H series. The X1 Pro was already powerful, and now it reaches a new level.
New Power: Intel Core Ultra 7 255H
One-Netbook, the maker of OneXPlayer, is launching the new X1 Pro with the Core Ultra 7 255H in a special limited edition. For users needing serious memory, it also comes with 64 GB of RAM.
Evangelion Flair: EVA Asuka Limited Edition
This limited release is called the "EVA Asuka Limited Edition." It features a striking red color scheme inspired by Evangelion. This edition is for enthusiasts who want technology with visual appeal. One-Netbook often uses special editions for more than just aesthetics. This time, the limited edition introduces the Intel Core Ultra 7 255H to the X1 Pro lineup. This suggests this processor may be exclusive to this version initially, before a wider X1 Pro refresh with Arrow Lake chips.
Performance Matches Top Tier
The new Intel chip improves performance. Preliminary benchmarks indicate the Core Ultra 7 255H matches the CPU performance of the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 found in previous X1 Pro models. The integrated graphics, Intel Arc 140T, performs similarly to the Radeon 890M. Real-world game performance can vary. For general use, the Arc 140T appears superior.
What Remains and What's New
Beyond the processor and red color, other OneXPlayer X1 Pro features are similar. It retains the large 10.95-inch screen for immersive handheld gaming. An upgrade includes Thunderbolt 4 ports, an improvement from the previous USB4.
Pricing and When to Get It
The OneXPlayer X1 Pro EVA Asuka Edition with Intel Core Ultra 7 255H and 64 GB RAM is priced at $1,649.99. This is for the base model, and accessories like cases or controller connectors will increase the price.
