Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “I think I found some problems… – OneXPlayer OXP2”.
Is this supposed to be? In the case I mean, I guess it makes sense that no mere mortal case could possibly contain the 1X player oxp2. This thing is basically like if your steam deck was bigger, faster higher resolution and this little party trick, the controllers come off. It’S like a switch, but like massive, oh and they’re, really cool check this out hall effect, joysticks, pretty good feeling, ABX wise, shoulder buttons feel all right too, but hall effect triggers that’s right, better accuracy, most importantly, better durability, and my expectation is that they’re gon na Have very little in the way of dead zones because of the way hall effect sensors work, you don’t need to have a giant Dead Zone in the middle in order to prevent drift which isn’t really preventing it. It’S just masking it until it becomes egregious. Let’S talk about the compute body, they don’t that’s not their name, for it, that’s my name for it. This right here is packed full of the latest text, so it’s got an AMD ryzen 6800u. That means eight Zen three cores and a Radeon 6800 mgpu. That’S an even more powerful rdna2 GPU than what is found in the steam deck, which it should be because it does cost considerably more and as actually considerably looking like. Thicker look at this thing go holy schnikes I mean yeah. I know that. Obviously, none of the computers in the controllers – because these are super light these way like next to nothing, but that is a thick boy compared to the steam deck. There’S some other really interesting stuff going on here, too, it’s available anywhere from 512 gig. All the way up to two terabyte capacities – and it’s got USB a okay micro, SD expansion USB 4 with claimed support for egpus, headphone jack volume up and down power button.
And yes, that’s right, my friends right next to the little label that says hardcore Gamers is a turbo button. Taking me back to the 486 days, I love it. Obviously, nothing on the side, except for the povo pin pads that are going to contact these controllers and then on the bottom. Ah another USBC connector, I actually don’t know which one is usb4, because my spec sheet only mentions one usb4 port, so cool we’ve also got our speaker grilles, and this is interesting. It does 20 volt 5 amp charging. So that’s a hundred watt charging on this thing.
They claim that you can get to 50 battery capacity in just half an hour as for the battery capacity they’re, claiming anywhere from three to six hours, thanks to the 65 watt hour battery. That explains why this thing is so chunky by comparison, the steam deck is somewhere in the 40 to 45 yeah 40 watt hour range, so this has over 50 percent more battery capacity. That also contributes to some extra weight.
It’S pretty heavy. Now this is a prototype, but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to give 1X player feedback on it. I think these rails have got to get a little bit tighter, there’s more wobble in these than I would like to see. Maybe they can. You know metal up the interface in here, but man, I’ve got ta say I am liking the display these guys have a reputation for packing super high resolution screens into their handhelds, sometimes higher resolution than even makes sense.
This one is 2560 by 1600, which I I mean. I guess there are some games that the 6800u would be able to power at that res, but that is not going to be. What you’re running AAA games at the good news is that that pixel density is so high that what I’ve found is that when you run it at a non-native resolution, it doesn’t look so bad compared to the old days when we had. You know 1280 by 1024 desktop monitors. Those looked awful when you ran them at anything other than native res, but once you get up into like 4K 5K desktop monitors and like 1440p and a 8.4 inch display it’s no longer nearly as big of an issue. The interpolation doesn’t look so obvious. Oh, I guess there’s some other cool features we can talk about. While that finishes one is that that it’s got a kickstand so much like the switch, you don’t actually have to use it with the controllers. You can just say forget the controllers pack, your own controller, whether it’s an Xbox controller with Microsoft’s, dongle or Playstation, or Xbox controller connected via Bluetooth, and then just kind of set it up and game on the go. You don’t have to run games natively on the device, so in my recent review on the Linus Tech tips, channel of the Logitech gcloud I talked about how sometimes it actually just does make more sense to stream a game.
You get better battery life and as long as you’re on your home, Wi-Fi I mean man steam link is so good these days that unless you’re playing something that really requires, like Pixel, Perfect Precision, you’re playing like Super Meat Boy or something like that, most people – probably Won’T notice, obviously I wouldn’t play Counter-Strike on a streamed connection, but I’m also not going to be playing Counter-Strike on, like I scream this size, but with my little tiny keyboard and mouse. You know horses for courses right. This video is brought to you by secret, Lab secret.

So don’t wait head to the link in the description to check out secret lab today.
I have high hopes for the speakers they’re apparently powered by Harman, but then again this is just. I don’t know what a Harman audio EFX is. I haven’t heard of that before. Oh, what the devil is this huh there’s a little magnetic something that oh, okay, ah well, the adhesive came off this again, that’s a prototype. What the heck the volume down button is opening up the on-screen keyboard right now, uh. So I guess we’re stuck with game.
Audio okay: let’s have a look at how big these dead zones are ooh. Those are bigger than I’d like look at that no cursor movement, guys you’re missing out on a lot of the benefit of a hall effect joystick. If you’re gon na have a giant Dead Zone like that in the middle of it, yes, you still get the improved durability, but, like I want that Precision, when you don’t have a big dead zone in the middle of it, it makes aiming so much easier. That is not a lot of frames per seconds. Okay, let’s go ahead and get that reconfigured, quick preset medium. I don’t think so. Okay, well, that’s definitely running yeah. There’S, no obvious. Precision advantage to these hall effect. Dry sticks when they’ve got these giant dead zones on them and look at this okay, so I’m going in a straight line. Oh I’m moving around this much and I’m still going in a straight line right. If you want to make small adjustments, you’ve got to have small dead zones, so we’re running at one percent low s of around 30 FPS on low at 1280 by 800..
Oh! But what if we kick things into turbo mode, holy crap? What is turbo mode doing? We just jumped to a nice 69 average FPS. My one percent lows are Now 46 okay hold on I’m, not I’m not in as dense a spot. Let’S get let’s get turned around here. Yeah you can. You can hear the fan going? Hey, oh whoops! Oh shoot! 100 playable not at the most amazing details, we’re not turning on Ray tracing or whatever, but this is 100 playable. This is a really big display for 720p, though I think 1080 would be my sweet spot here.
Can we get away with that? What do you think? Can we get away with 1080 dips? Some tips? Oh, oh, I got ta get control of this car even with the lower frame rate and the dips. I would probably play like this: it’s not OLED. It’S not high refresh rate, only 60 hertz, but they rated at 350 nits with 88 coverage of the ntsc color space, and it subjectively anyway looks pretty darn good, no obvious. Just like oh yeah, the reds are way overblown or greens are way out or anything like that.
We, you know, wouldn’t really evaluate a prototype based on that anyway, since that’s down to calibration at the factory. So that’s something that we’d want to see from. Like a finished unit to determine how accurate it is out of the box, but it certainly has the capability on a device like this. I absolutely would use Dynamic resolution scaling, but I want to see how the hardware actually performs so I’m turning it off for now. Never actually played the original game heard.
It’S really good, though. Well, if I could get up there Brandon, I guess. Oh, you can literally just run up the wall.
Okay, I mean that makes sense. You’Re Spider-Man, you know what whatever I’m having trouble with and try and took controls here. None of that matters.
My lows are in the 25 FPS range. My averages are in the 40 FPS range. That is extremely playable man.
The 6800u is a game changer in terms of mobile gaming. This okay, it’s running hello, but it’s running at 1920 by 1200 and on a screen this size, you don’t notice graphical details being turned down as much. It looks awesome, there’s some other cool stuff to talk about these Pogo pins are apparently for an optional detachable keyboard. It has support for up to 4096 pressure levels with like a Microsoft, Surface, Pen stylus, which is neat. I guess it has a six axis gyroscope, so you can use that for aim. Assist does require a little bit of software configuration to get that working just right, but it can be a great way to make fine adjustments to your aim, especially if you can’t rely on your joysticks to not have dead zones again.
Hopefully they have that fixed for the final version. It starts at 989 dollars so yeah this size and performance – and you know it’s not even that loud doesn’t get hot comes at a cost. The max spec one is 1400 US dollars, but it is a markedly different experience from what you get with the steam deck. The only steam deck is a lot less expensive.
Oh, we never tried the speakers um. These really don’t sound, very good um, but I’d still, I’ve still seen that done better bye, .
