The ONEXFLY F1 Pro is making waves as the first gaming handheld to harness the power of AMD’s Strix Point “Ryzen AI 300” APUs. This cutting-edge device is priced at $1099, setting a high bar for portable gaming solutions.
The launch of the ONEXFLY F1 Pro by One-Netbook, under the OneXPlayer brand, marks a significant step in the handheld gaming industry. While AMD’s Strix Point APUs took some time to find their place in the spotlight, the ONEXFLY F1 Pro brings them to the forefront with a promise of unrivaled gaming performance. However, this advanced technology comes with a weighty price tag.
The handheld offers a range of configurations, allowing gamers to choose from models equipped with Ryzen AI 9 365 up to the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processors. Standard features include an impressive 32 GB of LPDDR5x-7200 memory and 1 TB of storage. For those desiring more space, there are 2 TB and even a 4 TB options, although these come at premium prices starting at $1199 for the lower processor variant and up to $1699 for the highest-end model.
Despite the considerable investment, the features largely justify the cost. The ONEXFLY F1 Pro boasts a remarkable 7-inch 1080P 144Hz OLED display, providing vibrant and fluid visuals crucial for gamers. Its robust 48.5 Wh battery ensures longevity during intense gaming sessions. Connectivity is not compromised, with dual USB 4.0 ports, a USB-A 3.0 port, and a microSD card slot. The design is sleek, featuring stylish RGB-lighted joysticks and prominent branding that enhances its aesthetic appeal.
Performance-wise, the ONEXFLY F1 Pro doesn’t disappoint. Benchmarks indicate that it comfortably runs demanding games like Black Myth: Wukong at a smooth 50–60 FPS on 1080p low settings, impressive for a handheld device. This positions the F1 Pro as a formidable contender in the high-end portable gaming market, potentially outpacing competitors like ASUS and MSI in performance.
As the ONEXFLY F1 Pro enters the market, it aims to captivate tech enthusiasts with its speed and capabilities. Whether it will achieve widespread retail success remains to be seen, yet its innovative features make a compelling case for gamers seeking top-tier performance in a handheld form.
