I completely agree with you on everything youve said and i myself am still waiting for my Pre-order to ship and come in i had pre-ordered the 64 gigs of ram 4 TB of storage option in black and based on everything ive seen it not only has amazing power inside of it but equally impressive looks on the outside that screams a Gamers Dream Machine because to me thats what it truely is and i couldnt be more happy / pleased with One Netbook.
Oh you will love it. I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit jealous ahahah! Had I known it would've been that good, I would've probably ordered your config. Enjoy!
Haha aww well i really do appriciate the feedback and yeah im not someone whose easly impressed im a rather picky shopper with high standards and honestly i had came across the Onexfly by total accident off of a gif or something and i was like oo what is this so i seeked it out and i was stunned that it was real everything about it seemed too good to be true but i couldnt be more happy that i was wrong to think that =) that and i cant wait to have it in my hands it truely does look amazing and just couldnt be more excited.@@GameTechTalk
It's crazy that nowadays such a small compact device is able to do probably many many PC/laptops can't even do. And it's such a great looking device! Not small not big just the perfect shape and proportion! Great video!👏
OneXplayer hit a homerun with that one. I'm properly excited for whatever will successfully knock it back a position but for now, that one is sitting atop that podium!
I love mine. Plays all of my games extremely well. I played DMC 5 1080p med/high settings at a smooth 60fps for a few hours last night, I never do that on my gaming PC. It's my first PC handheld and it's how I prefer to do the bulk of my gaming.
Got a campaign unit, glad I did, its awesome. I dropped it once, its solid, nothing shaking or making a noise. Performance, feel and look, it always depends on where you're at, I had a Steam Deck but wanted to be able to play the games the way I am on the OneXFly. I also have a high end PC and PS5 so this really fits the space as a hand held device. I find the other devices big and clunky and not easy to sit with for long periods. This is close to a Switch Lite shape and Steam Deck heft / size.
This intro goes hard af! I watch a ton of handheld pc/retro gaming content for pure entertainment - I'm a terrible gamer. Not enough time in the world to play all the games I'd need to dedicate time to!
Yeah, that's the "issue", it ain't cheap. BUT, AYANEO just released their "Next" device, I bought one for 299USD. That might be an amazing option to go through some indie titles, stay tuned for a review if interested! Cheers :)
Just found your page, and I gotta say bravo. I really enjoy your content. I have a 5800u oneXplayer mini pro right now. Deciding if I should spend $599 on 6800u version or $719 on 512gb oneXfly. After watching this I’m pretty sure I’m gonna spend the extra and get the oneXfly. I barely use my gaming PC anymore and I’ve always been a handheld guy since gameboy. I’ll likely be having a 5800u oneXplayer up for grabs pretty soon. Thanks!
The OneXFly is such a solid device, you won't find much that doesn't feel anything other than "amazing" on it. Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad my content brought you value! 😊
@@GameTechTalk I’m now going to watch your setup guide in preparation for my oneXfly arrival. 👍 Any recommendations for selling used Handheld PCs? I was gonna try Facebook marketplace and eBay.
☺ I would suggest the exact same, FB Marketplace or eBay, there are some handheld centric discords that have dedicated channels for people looking to sell and buy but I wouldn't have any specifics in mind at the moment, sorry for that!@@hondmatic
The unit looks super solid and I'm a little bummed I missed out at getting it at the campaign pricing. This pushed me a little farther down the path of picking up another handheld further down the road. I was really impressed with the captured content you had rolling in the background from your time using the device. Maybe I'll take a leap on their next campaign. As a side note, what was the metroidvania type game you were playing during your hands-on footage?
Thanks! It's called The Last Faith, it's coming out in November and I'm really hyped for it. From the demo that was released during Steam Fest and is still up, they seem to really have captured the Dark Souls genre in the Metroidvania format. Not the first one, but arguably, they seem to have captured the essence better than most I find
Just got one after much deliberation, thanks for making me feel better about the purchase. It’s a bit big for my hands but I wanted a good size screen and the weight seems promising!
I'm glad to know I was able to convey how good of a purchase it is. In fact, you treated yourself to a device that will be harder to surpass for at least some time, engineering-wise! 😂 Seeing how quick these handhelds are to market, the total package is usually not as well put together, but who knows, maybe another brand will hit as many checkmarks soon. When you receive it, if you have a chance, don't hesitate to let me know if you like it as much! Cheers and thanks :)
@@GameTechTalk o boy it’s just perfect for me. Think I finally found my handheld! Sad in a months time then this will be obsolete too but it just looks and feels great, not too big or small for me, and the speakers are insane for a handheld. Currently emulating childhood games on it and having a better time than playing cyberpunk or Alan wake 2 lol
Well, that is all the feedback I needed. I hope OneNetbook gets to see this as well, they really pulled a rabbit out of their hats. Happy Holidays!@@OldDolio312
They better be making a successor to this device next year. It is a SOLID cut above anything else that has come from OneXplayer/AOKZOE. It is such a cohesive device. Happy to see your name, by the way! Loved your review of the Pocket Air, unfortunately, mine still hasn't shipped but can't wait!
I have moved on from D-Pad altogether, I see them more as another set of face buttons.... Even for retro games, I tend to shift back and forth and ultimately finding comfort on analogs but I know not everyone sees it that way. With that in mind, assymetrical sticks, I find, makes it easier for my brain to distinguish left side to right side in terms of thumb motion. So yeah, I'm glad it's designed the way it is but to be frankly, symmetrical sticks on PC handhelds are so rare and for the very few case that are like that (Steam Deck, Win Max 2, Win Mini), I think it has more to do with just overall space left to design controls. If anything, I'm surprised none of these companies designed a "swappable" system. That could be one of those things that makes a device MASSIVELY stand out for massive retro gaming individuals but also everybody else that jumps from Playstation to Xbox regularly.
I'll explain my full thought in the Legion Go review, which is already written, I just need to film and finish gathering a bit more data just on performance overall but at this point in time, for me personally, it's OneXFly. I'm hoping to have it out in less than 7 days, ideally half of that time. The Legion Go does have appealing aspects to it but I don't believe those to be a "one size fits all" whereas the OneXFly is, as far as I am concerned, a much better rounded product, like by a lot. I hope this answers your question.
Really appreciate your reply,I was stuck on the fence of which one to purchase, but you’ve just made my mind up,keep making the videos,Thar Much appreciated.
Great video and super cool device. I'm actually waiting to see more about the GPD Win Mini. Have any thoughts you care to share about the GPD Win Mini since you've used the Win 4 and Max 2?
I'm excited to have it in hands, having been a GPD Win 2 owner, being a clamshell lover and having have the Win Max 2 and Win 4 as you mentioned. I expect it to be a nice portable and pocketable device but truth be told, I also expect the overall feel of the device to be a mixed bag of hits and misses. For starters, GPD are starting to fall behind in terms of overall quality. But what they lack in quality, they provide in convenience and the Win Mini will most likely reinforce that DNA they have. But also, GPD's software solution is starting to feel very flat compared to AYASpace 2 and OneXPlayer which feel far more on-par with the ASUS Software on the ALLY. And last, those receded sticks are easy to understand why it's a must on clamshells but man is it ever the most annoying thing if not done right. GPD did quite well with the Win Max 2 so fingers crossed. All in all, I'm perplexed. I'm hoping for a great device but we won't know until we have it. I'm also worried with GPD doing their first 120hz panel. The Win 4 panel is decent, the WM2 has the size aspect but for everything else, it's greatly lacking. So yeah, those GPD oddities are starting to come out due to their competition getting better, I find.
Thanks Mr. Who-Gave-Me-That-Live-Stage-Opportunity and is also a TH-camr! 🤣 We’ll find that out shortly but as much as I am hyped for the Go, I don’t expect it to be as well rounded and rather, have particularly great aspects, while some others will suffer as a trade off.
OneXfly is the better 7840u device. I am shocking by this quality. I have already win 4 and fly is soooo much better. All is perfect really. All is premium. And my time spy first test is just amazing much better that rog ally. 2950 time spy graphics. With little optimization you easy reach more that 3000 😃
So it's a bit "hidden" but up top, next to L1 and R1, there are extra bumpers for mapping capabilities, with that said, it is not back paddles but figured I'd let you know just in case.
I wouldn't know unfortunately about shipping delays as they are now in "in-demand" but I would suggest trying their official discord from feedback from other owners. Thanks and cheers! :)
In reality, OneXFly don't really need support. Pretty much every handheld PCs, including ASUS and Lenovo, use readily available parts. Drivers are comprised mostly of AMD and a few generic ones that Microsoft supply. Gyro, it's all the same supplier that they all get their parts from. The one exception would be the bios, and truth be told, the moment it works, we don't really need to expect drivers in the future. With that said, yes they still do increase compatibility elsewhere, for example, Linux is an OS that is greatly gaining ground in the last few years and I'm sure 1NB, much like GPD, AYANEO and the likes are all working on improving their compatibility. If you were referring to Windows though, the support has been very good across all recognized brands in the space, including the Chinese-based "boutique" type ones. Bit of a longer answer but I hope it clarifies the question you may have had.
Personally, I am not getting any more 7th gen... Or at least I don't think so 😂 So that'll leave me with the OneXFly, the AYANEO Kun, and the TJD T101, though arguably, the RoG ALLY and Lenovo Legion Go would also fit in that gen. I never tried an AOKZOE, they usually are the first to release an 8th gen, if they are again this time around, I might give them my first go.
How do you like it these days? A lot of people on Reddit are telling me not to buy because it’s Chinese made but, none of the others really appeal to me like this one. What’s your experience? Also, can the touch screen be used while gaming? Like if you played a mobile game per say?
I still very much love it. I think it is an absolutely well-rounded device. There are other products that are great for similar or unique reasons but none brought as cohesive a package as this one. As for the "made in china" argument, everyone is free to make a fresh Windows install and last, China can pump out quality just as it can the opposite. It's not about which country it's built in, it's about which company you're buying from and what kind of quality and service they'll offer. I have been pleased with 1NB, GPD, AYANEO, all China based brands.
I never laid hands on the 2 Pro but I have their other devices in that lineup. To me, that line of products has cons that outweigh the Pros. If you were looking to get the 2 Pro, I'd recommand the Legion Go over it. The OneXFly on the other hand, it still remains my top device of 2023.
@@GameTechTalk interesting. I was not expecting that response and appreciate your candor. The Fly looks chunky, which I could imagine would make the grip feel very natural even for bigger hands. Detaching controllers make me a bit nervous and I hate buying anything with just 16GB. That’s kept me away from Ally and Legion. The OneX firmware looks great, and I love their peripherals & upcoming eGPU…. 16 GB Doesn’t feel future-proof. For my one device, I would worry if it just had 16GB (even with an 8,12,or 16 eGPU). Am I crazy for that?
@@Caba-Rojo Can't say that I am unfortunately. I have a TJD T101 on the way for the "format" though not exactly the same. But I also have another product to "theorycraft" the 155H found in the MSI claw/OXP X1. It's tempting though... we'll see. Thanks!
Early bird pricing was better yes, but the product also had lesser components, 16gb ram and 512gb stockage. The lesser model listed is now 32gb ram and 1tb, so please do keep in mind that you are looking at those very different SKUs when taking into consideration those prices.
Desde su anuncio me pareció que sería la handheld mejor diseñada, la Rog Ally es muy buena pero peca de errores garrafales tales como el problema con las microSd y sus botones traceros poco ergonómicos y podemos agregarle también que no tenga un puerto USB 4.0. Ahora como bien dices la Onexfly tendría su único fallo o desventaja en no tener un panel con VRR, por lo demás es la que mejor está diseñada.
¡Por favor, tenga en cuenta que estoy usando Google Translate! :) Estoy completamente de acuerdo como sabes. Todavía estoy desconcertado por lo bueno que es el producto en general. Estoy muy emocionado de tener Win Mini, AYANEO Kun y el nuevo Steam Deck para enfrentarlos contra OneXFly porque ahora mismo es el ganador de este año. ¡Gracias por ver!
Out the box. I eventually did a fresh install mainly to create a video about it for people who wanted to do the same. If it was just me, I'd have kept it the way it was. But, I'm no example to follow ahahhh, I'm lazy like that! 🤣
I may be mistaken but I think the Geek would run you for a bit less cost wise, that would be the ONLY reason why I'd recommend it over the OneXFly. BUT, if you have disposable income and don't care much for that, OneXFly for sure. If they are neck and neck price wise for same specs? OneXFly for sure. If OneXFly is still a 100 to 200 more for same specs? OneXFly for sure. From extensive exposure to AYANEO. They are good devices but their focus is more on the visual and controls, which is not a bad thing but fannoise wise, speaker wise, cooling wise, they almost always fall short to GPD. I wouldn't say every OneNetbook devices are as well designed as this one but the OneXFly is, dare I say, far better designed than anything else they've had thus far, and everything AYANEO has produced as well.
whatever happened to the onexegpu rumours? I was actually intrigued at how small it was compared to the G1...it kind of reminded me of the nvidia pocket AI
@@GameTechTalk you raise a good point, I think it only had thunderbolt/usb4 so it had no chance of competing. Plus I think being the size of a smart phone probably wouldn't do well in dissipating heat
I love this device except for the d-pad. One of the diagonals is not very responsive when trying to roll (like when you execute a fireball in street fighter). I wonder if there's any software fixes...otherwise, I'm going to have to return it.
There is a bit of subjectivity to d-pads, wouldn't say it's my favorite either but I live with it no problems. I'm also not a big "fighting game" gamer nowadays but I might have felt different if I was. With that said, it's just about impossible to address the issue you're having through software. It seems the connection might be loose? The issue you're describing, I can't say I relate to with mine so maybe the membrane pad in yours needs repositioning? I'd say to try to do circles while shaking the device, don't know that it'd help but no harm in trying, just don't launch it like a Wii gamepad!
Imo, its biggest draw back is that you have to order from china. They need to get some Europe and America based partnerships going. Somewhere reputable that people can buy from. Given the price, the import taxes and such it would be a nightmare if you got it and it had issues that required it being returned to be repaired, adding even more cost.
That is effectively a gamble that I absolutely, undoubtly understand people not wanting to get behind. Chances for issues to happen are fairly slim and have improved tremendously throughout the years but anyone not feeling comfortable should just sit on it. No one is impervious to running into issues and the support you get when that happens is nothing like what many European and North American countries have been accustomed to. That's why devices such as Steam Deck and RoG ALLY or with the third upcoming one, the Lenovo Legion Go, are still the frontrunners for anyone looking to get into that product space.
It is called the InfiRay P2 Pro, pretty solid heat reader/camera. Watched a few reviews here on YT and it seemed to be an overall good alternative to standalone readers. Cheers!
The max resolution is indeed 1920x1080. You might be able to up render to then downconvert but it would be a massive hit for little to no benefits. Indeed, OneNetbook usually go for 1200p or 1600p. But keep in mind that 1200p is just 16:10, whereas the OneXFly is 16:9 so in other words, your resolution is the same, you just have less "vertical screen estate". As for 1600p, it is sweet without a doubt, like it is on the Legion fGo or example but driving games on that actual resolution is a bit much of an ask, at least for AAA and graphically demanding games.
@@icebergerking I would strongly recommend not going toward CRU to increase resolution. That's the equivalent of overclocking your panel, the risks of blowing something up by overdriving the panel increase considerably. Rather, I would expect that AMD has a software solution in their drivers. Unfortunately, I have been a Nvidia guy nearly all my life so I wouldn't know where to start but for sure, it's got to exist. Or the 3rd option is whenever games have a "render" slider. By going past 100%, say 130%, you are essentially driving a 1440p signal to a 1080p panel. It does have slightly increased sharpness but can also make things look fuzzy cause it's beyond native panel resolution.
@@GameTechTalk I know I can use the "boarderless gaming" app but I don't want to depend on that everytime but Ill try the Amd software. Also are you on Facebook?
I wouldn’t know as much to be honest but yesterday I removed the plastic that covers the RGB in the corners and the system is quite a clever one, they have little plastic sheets and is covered in black to let RGB only shine to the letters. In other words, making your own would be a pretty simple project. It’s almost like this plastic dividers to separate sections we used in school.
@GameTechTalk But when u ordered urs, did u instruct the seller anything cuz I saw in ur video that u have both RGB names as onexfly, or is that a default? Just in case I want to sell mine at some point that it's not named after me...
@GameTechTalk I really want to aim for this handheld, but it's stopping me from comparing it on Ayaneo Geek S1. In terms of software usage, which do u think is better?
@@Yuu-oc7ye Sorry that comment got past me somehow. I think it's a fair device to compare it too, from the standpoint of sharing more common aspects however, I would say that on nearly every little thing the OneXFly is superior. The audio is definitely superior, the rumble, the panel I find too but to be fair, I only saw the 800p on the Geek but I do have an AYANEO 2 which is supposedly the same panel as the 1200p Geek. Versus the 1200p, I find OneXPlayer still tweaked their 1080p panel better overall but is also a 120hz vs 60hz on the Geek. The 16:9 slim bezel of the OneXFly results in a lighter, more compact, and better balance ergonomics and weight versus the Geek. I'd give the Geek a single advantage and it is that they use larger analog stick caps. And last, while AYASpace 2 improved a GREAT GREAT deal, I find that OneXPlayer's OneXConsole is considerably better in terms of ease-of-use and overall reliability and responsiveness. I hope this helps!
It depends on how much you crank it high (power wise) and how demanding the game is. I'd say the absolutely worst case scenario pumping this thing to the absolute max without a care in the world (but it's pointless) on a super demanding game would be a bit more than an hour. I'd say overall, an hour half to two hours is more likely for decently demanding games at a decent TDP. I hope this helps!
If you have a 64gb model, absolutely that you should set it to 32gb. That's what I'll be personally doing when I get mine. If you have a 32gb model, the "auto" setting seem to overall be a bit better from benchmark but it is an overall trivial difference in terms of how much of a difference it makes. Cheers! :)
@@GameTechTalk you mean with ,,Auto settings,, the Performance global framerate Limit? Sorry my Specs information ist Not so perfekt. Its so sad that No one makes a Video with the best settings for one x fly.
@@phoenixshawn7015 When setting your vram buffer, it should give you options up to half of your total ram as well as auto. 16gb for modern operating systems nowadays is a bit cutting it short. It's enough but ideally, you have more. So when setting 16gb on a 32gb ram device, you're putting extra strain on your OS whereas 99% of the games won't REQUIRE 16gb of vram, though many will definitely utilize that much if you have it. That is why auto will better manage what you need and where you need it and because of it, it'll sometimes equal to better performance overall but very little. If you have a 64gb system, 32gb is more than plenty for OS and for games so that's why setting it to 32gb is just perfect overall, everyone aspects will get all they need without relying on the auto feature moving it back and forth. Sorry for the wall of text, I hope this makes sense. Cheers :)
@@GameTechTalk ITS OK and have you any Tipps there i can max my one x Player to the best settings. Sorry that i ASK you so much but realy i cant find a Video there someone explain IT what Everthing is for😅
Hello ! I'm hesitating on buying a gaming handheld and I saw your comment on the onexfly website and then watched this video x) I saw you have the legion go and do you have the onexplayer2pro ? If you do do you think the onexfly is most worth buying than the onexplayer2pro,the legion go and the rog ally or even the steamdeck oled ? If you take the time to answer my comment I will really apreciate, I think you defenitly should have more subs, +1 from me, keep up the hard work 💪
Thanks for the kind words! I do not have the OXP2 Pro at the moment but I would suggest against it in favor of the OneXFly. It has extra features over the OXP2 Pro and is overall a better rounded product. If you are specifically after a bigger screen, I'd wait for OneXPlayer 1X reviews to come out (I'll be reviewing it when I get my unit). Between the Legion Go and ALLY, I still prefer the OneXFly as it is overall a superior device but if I had to go with one of the two, the ALLY is the best of both. Better panel, better ergonomics, better audio and overall feel. It's also seriously cheaper if you can get an open box from BestBuy. But yeah, if money is no object, I'd go with OneXFly. Steam Deck OLED is also top tier, you can't really go wrong but the more time goes by, the more limited you are in terms of games it can run, nonetheless, the library remains massive and SteamOS is pleasant to navigate if you like a "no brainer" kind of experience. Let me know if you have other questions! :)
J'ai continué à regarder tes vidéos et j'ai vu que t'es français x) c'est plus facile pour moi. Sinon ducoup tu pense que le onexfly est le meilleur par rapport aux autres en therme de performances et prix ?
Avec plaisir! En vrai, la Steam Deck OLED en rapport qualité/prix, c'est imbattable. Mais la différence payé pour un OneXFly est quand même notable, bien meilleur couverture de performance, Windows (je préfère), panneau 120hz mais surtout, support natif des pilotes AMD. C'est chiant sur la ALLY et la Legion Go, mais sur la 7840U? Un vrai charme! J'apprécie les solutions grand public mais en vrai, le client doit "bosser" beaucoup plus pour facilité la compatibilité versus sur les puces AMD mainstream. N'hésite pas si tu as d'autres questions! @@clementclement955
Ok, merci beaucoup tu m'aides beaucoup 👍, et sinon tu avais parlé du onexeplayer 1x ? J'ai regardé et est ce que tu penses qu'il est plus intéressant que le onexfly ? Et par rapport à la batterie du onexfly, tu arrives à jouer combien de temps à peux près en mode portable en ayant minimum 30fps sur presque tous les jeux ? Sinon encore merci pour ton aide, j'apprécie les gens passionnés et qui partagent ❤️, bonne journée/soirée
Le OneXFly va être dur à battre, j'attendrais les revues du 1X avant de faire le saut. Pour ce qui est de la batterie, 1h30 dans les pires conditions je dirais, ça dépend énormément du jeu auquel on joue, plus c'est demandant, moins dure la batterie. Mais un petit jeu facile à rouler pour les ressources, du 5-6hrs est aussi réalisable. Oui, le 30fps est de mise sur pas mal tout les jeux disponibles, peut-être faudra-t-il que les paramètres soient bas, ou encore de mettre la résolution en 720p, mais le 30fps est tjs possible, généralement, le 60fps est assez régulièrement atteignable aussi en 720p. En 1080p, ça dépend des jeux. @@clementclement955

Thanks! It's called The Last Faith, it's coming out in November and I'm really hyped for it. From the demo that was released during Steam Fest and is still up, they seem to really have captured the Dark Souls genre in the Metroidvania format. Not the first one, but arguably, they seem to have captured the essence better than most I find
@@GameTechTalk I had a chance to try it, thanks so much for the response. It's definitely going on my wishlist!
Just got one after much deliberation, thanks for making me feel better about the purchase. It’s a bit big for my hands but I wanted a good size screen and the weight seems promising!
I'm glad to know I was able to convey how good of a purchase it is. In fact, you treated yourself to a device that will be harder to surpass for at least some time, engineering-wise! 😂 Seeing how quick these handhelds are to market, the total package is usually not as well put together, but who knows, maybe another brand will hit as many checkmarks soon. When you receive it, if you have a chance, don't hesitate to let me know if you like it as much! Cheers and thanks :)
@@GameTechTalk o boy it’s just perfect for me. Think I finally found my handheld! Sad in a months time then this will be obsolete too but it just looks and feels great, not too big or small for me, and the speakers are insane for a handheld. Currently emulating childhood games on it and having a better time than playing cyberpunk or Alan wake 2 lol
Well, that is all the feedback I needed. I hope OneNetbook gets to see this as well, they really pulled a rabbit out of their hats. Happy Holidays!@@OldDolio312
I missed out on the IGG but want one of these so bad 😢
They better be making a successor to this device next year. It is a SOLID cut above anything else that has come from OneXplayer/AOKZOE. It is such a cohesive device. Happy to see your name, by the way! Loved your review of the Pocket Air, unfortunately, mine still hasn't shipped but can't wait!
im in the same boat.
I think that cross D-Pads is a MUST on these devices. If I wanted something round instead, I'd just use the analog. That's what they're for anyway!
I have moved on from D-Pad altogether, I see them more as another set of face buttons.... Even for retro games, I tend to shift back and forth and ultimately finding comfort on analogs but I know not everyone sees it that way.
With that in mind, assymetrical sticks, I find, makes it easier for my brain to distinguish left side to right side in terms of thumb motion. So yeah, I'm glad it's designed the way it is but to be frankly, symmetrical sticks on PC handhelds are so rare and for the very few case that are like that (Steam Deck, Win Max 2, Win Mini), I think it has more to do with just overall space left to design controls.
If anything, I'm surprised none of these companies designed a "swappable" system. That could be one of those things that makes a device MASSIVELY stand out for massive retro gaming individuals but also everybody else that jumps from Playstation to Xbox regularly.
Love those graph comparisons great video
Glad you like them, thanks! :)
How about you, do you have a OneXFly and if so, are you happy or not overall with it?
Just got my email. Mine come Friday. I just wish the face buttons had RGB but excited. 🎉
Congrats! You'll enjoy it for sure! RGB buttons would've been nice indeed, who knows, maybe the next one will! :)
Fantastic review as always.
Glad you enjoyed it
ahhh yes, one handed personal bathroom time
😅
In your opinion, one X fly or Legion go
I'll explain my full thought in the Legion Go review, which is already written, I just need to film and finish gathering a bit more data just on performance overall but at this point in time, for me personally, it's OneXFly. I'm hoping to have it out in less than 7 days, ideally half of that time.
The Legion Go does have appealing aspects to it but I don't believe those to be a "one size fits all" whereas the OneXFly is, as far as I am concerned, a much better rounded product, like by a lot. I hope this answers your question.
Really appreciate your reply,I was stuck on the fence of which one to purchase, but you’ve just made my mind up,keep making the videos,Thar Much appreciated.
It actually goes up to 64GB/4TB other than that, great video. Waiting on my delivery as we speak.
I'm excited for you, enjoy!
Great video and super cool device. I'm actually waiting to see more about the GPD Win Mini. Have any thoughts you care to share about the GPD Win Mini since you've used the Win 4 and Max 2?
I'm excited to have it in hands, having been a GPD Win 2 owner, being a clamshell lover and having have the Win Max 2 and Win 4 as you mentioned. I expect it to be a nice portable and pocketable device but truth be told, I also expect the overall feel of the device to be a mixed bag of hits and misses.
For starters, GPD are starting to fall behind in terms of overall quality. But what they lack in quality, they provide in convenience and the Win Mini will most likely reinforce that DNA they have. But also, GPD's software solution is starting to feel very flat compared to AYASpace 2 and OneXPlayer which feel far more on-par with the ASUS Software on the ALLY.
And last, those receded sticks are easy to understand why it's a must on clamshells but man is it ever the most annoying thing if not done right. GPD did quite well with the Win Max 2 so fingers crossed.
All in all, I'm perplexed. I'm hoping for a great device but we won't know until we have it. I'm also worried with GPD doing their first 120hz panel. The Win 4 panel is decent, the WM2 has the size aspect but for everything else, it's greatly lacking. So yeah, those GPD oddities are starting to come out due to their competition getting better, I find.
Great content! So.... Onexfly or legion go ? Im still hesitating.
Thanks Mr. Who-Gave-Me-That-Live-Stage-Opportunity and is also a TH-camr! 🤣 We’ll find that out shortly but as much as I am hyped for the Go, I don’t expect it to be as well rounded and rather, have particularly great aspects, while some others will suffer as a trade off.
OneXfly is the better 7840u device. I am shocking by this quality. I have already win 4 and fly is soooo much better. All is perfect really. All is premium. And my time spy first test is just amazing much better that rog ally. 2950 time spy graphics. With little optimization you easy reach more that 3000 😃
if this one would have back buttons i would have bought it instantly
So it's a bit "hidden" but up top, next to L1 and R1, there are extra bumpers for mapping capabilities, with that said, it is not back paddles but figured I'd let you know just in case.
@@GameTechTalk ohh yea i see now but i really wanted it on the back of the controller since i play with controllers with backbuttons as well
Solid video …. How long shipping and I would think dock makes it a solid desktop pc
I wouldn't know unfortunately about shipping delays as they are now in "in-demand" but I would suggest trying their official discord from feedback from other owners. Thanks and cheers! :)
What about driver support? Can I trust long term support from onex?
In reality, OneXFly don't really need support. Pretty much every handheld PCs, including ASUS and Lenovo, use readily available parts. Drivers are comprised mostly of AMD and a few generic ones that Microsoft supply. Gyro, it's all the same supplier that they all get their parts from.
The one exception would be the bios, and truth be told, the moment it works, we don't really need to expect drivers in the future. With that said, yes they still do increase compatibility elsewhere, for example, Linux is an OS that is greatly gaining ground in the last few years and I'm sure 1NB, much like GPD, AYANEO and the likes are all working on improving their compatibility. If you were referring to Windows though, the support has been very good across all recognized brands in the space, including the Chinese-based "boutique" type ones.
Bit of a longer answer but I hope it clarifies the question you may have had.
@@GameTechTalk Thank you for the quick response and the information. You sir just got a subscriber.
i have for now a gpd wm2 with a 6800u based, i'm waiting for the 8th gen to get a new handled
Personally, I am not getting any more 7th gen... Or at least I don't think so 😂 So that'll leave me with the OneXFly, the AYANEO Kun, and the TJD T101, though arguably, the RoG ALLY and Lenovo Legion Go would also fit in that gen.
I never tried an AOKZOE, they usually are the first to release an 8th gen, if they are again this time around, I might give them my first go.
How do you like it these days? A lot of people on Reddit are telling me not to buy because it’s Chinese made but, none of the others really appeal to me like this one. What’s your experience?
Also, can the touch screen be used while gaming? Like if you played a mobile game per say?
I still very much love it. I think it is an absolutely well-rounded device. There are other products that are great for similar or unique reasons but none brought as cohesive a package as this one. As for the "made in china" argument, everyone is free to make a fresh Windows install and last, China can pump out quality just as it can the opposite.
It's not about which country it's built in, it's about which company you're buying from and what kind of quality and service they'll offer. I have been pleased with 1NB, GPD, AYANEO, all China based brands.
I think you’ve inspired me to get one. Thanks for the video. I subbed as a thanks
Have you had a similar experience with the OneXPlayer 2 Pro?
I never laid hands on the 2 Pro but I have their other devices in that lineup. To me, that line of products has cons that outweigh the Pros. If you were looking to get the 2 Pro, I'd recommand the Legion Go over it. The OneXFly on the other hand, it still remains my top device of 2023.
@@GameTechTalk interesting. I was not expecting that response and appreciate your candor. The Fly looks chunky, which I could imagine would make the grip feel very natural even for bigger hands. Detaching controllers make me a bit nervous and I hate buying anything with just 16GB.
That’s kept me away from Ally and Legion.
The OneX firmware looks great, and I love their peripherals & upcoming eGPU….
16 GB Doesn’t feel future-proof. For my one device, I would worry if it just had 16GB (even with an 8,12,or 16 eGPU). Am I crazy for that?
@GameTechTalk Are you looking at the X1? I’m thinking about getting the max config tonight.
@@Caba-Rojo Can't say that I am unfortunately. I have a TJD T101 on the way for the "format" though not exactly the same. But I also have another product to "theorycraft" the 155H found in the MSI claw/OXP X1. It's tempting though... we'll see. Thanks!
Early bird price was 700$ and now it's minimum 990$ . And that's not worth getting. Only buy this at " early bird " prices ever.
Early bird pricing was better yes, but the product also had lesser components, 16gb ram and 512gb stockage. The lesser model listed is now 32gb ram and 1tb, so please do keep in mind that you are looking at those very different SKUs when taking into consideration those prices.
@@GameTechTalkstill not worth it imo. I can build a PC that functions way better with that price. I can find an ROG Ally for like $400-500
Desde su anuncio me pareció que sería la handheld mejor diseñada, la Rog Ally es muy buena pero peca de errores garrafales tales como el problema con las microSd y sus botones traceros poco ergonómicos y podemos agregarle también que no tenga un puerto USB 4.0. Ahora como bien dices la Onexfly tendría su único fallo o desventaja en no tener un panel con VRR, por lo demás es la que mejor está diseñada.
¡Por favor, tenga en cuenta que estoy usando Google Translate! :)
Estoy completamente de acuerdo como sabes. Todavía estoy desconcertado por lo bueno que es el producto en general. Estoy muy emocionado de tener Win Mini, AYANEO Kun y el nuevo Steam Deck para enfrentarlos contra OneXFly porque ahora mismo es el ganador de este año.
¡Gracias por ver!
Hello, did you do a fresh install of windows when you received your unit? Or did you start playing straight out of the box?
Out the box. I eventually did a fresh install mainly to create a video about it for people who wanted to do the same. If it was just me, I'd have kept it the way it was. But, I'm no example to follow ahahhh, I'm lazy like that! 🤣
@@GameTechTalk thank you. Just order one and wait in for it to arrive on Saturday. Great videos. You got my sub
whats better rog ally x, one fly or oneplayer pro 2?
PErsonally, I'd go OneXFly and I'd pick the brand new 8840U released models!
Im debating between this an the ayaneo geek 1s/2s
I may be mistaken but I think the Geek would run you for a bit less cost wise, that would be the ONLY reason why I'd recommend it over the OneXFly. BUT, if you have disposable income and don't care much for that, OneXFly for sure. If they are neck and neck price wise for same specs? OneXFly for sure. If OneXFly is still a 100 to 200 more for same specs? OneXFly for sure.
From extensive exposure to AYANEO. They are good devices but their focus is more on the visual and controls, which is not a bad thing but fannoise wise, speaker wise, cooling wise, they almost always fall short to GPD. I wouldn't say every OneNetbook devices are as well designed as this one but the OneXFly is, dare I say, far better designed than anything else they've had thus far, and everything AYANEO has produced as well.
whatever happened to the onexegpu rumours? I was actually intrigued at how small it was compared to the G1...it kind of reminded me of the nvidia pocket AI
I didn't even know that was a thing. Maybe they scrapped it to pivot towards Oculink as well? Idk sorry.
@@GameTechTalk you raise a good point, I think it only had thunderbolt/usb4 so it had no chance of competing. Plus I think being the size of a smart phone probably wouldn't do well in dissipating heat
I love this device except for the d-pad. One of the diagonals is not very responsive when trying to roll (like when you execute a fireball in street fighter). I wonder if there's any software fixes...otherwise, I'm going to have to return it.
There is a bit of subjectivity to d-pads, wouldn't say it's my favorite either but I live with it no problems. I'm also not a big "fighting game" gamer nowadays but I might have felt different if I was. With that said, it's just about impossible to address the issue you're having through software.
It seems the connection might be loose? The issue you're describing, I can't say I relate to with mine so maybe the membrane pad in yours needs repositioning? I'd say to try to do circles while shaking the device, don't know that it'd help but no harm in trying, just don't launch it like a Wii gamepad!
@@GameTechTalk Thanks! I'll give it a try.
Imo, its biggest draw back is that you have to order from china. They need to get some Europe and America based partnerships going. Somewhere reputable that people can buy from. Given the price, the import taxes and such it would be a nightmare if you got it and it had issues that required it being returned to be repaired, adding even more cost.
That is effectively a gamble that I absolutely, undoubtly understand people not wanting to get behind. Chances for issues to happen are fairly slim and have improved tremendously throughout the years but anyone not feeling comfortable should just sit on it.
No one is impervious to running into issues and the support you get when that happens is nothing like what many European and North American countries have been accustomed to.
That's why devices such as Steam Deck and RoG ALLY or with the third upcoming one, the Lenovo Legion Go, are still the frontrunners for anyone looking to get into that product space.
Not a drawback for ppl in China and near.
What device are you using for the thermal camera on your phone?
It is called the InfiRay P2 Pro, pretty solid heat reader/camera. Watched a few reviews here on YT and it seemed to be an overall good alternative to standalone readers. Cheers!
@@GameTechTalkawesome thanks!
Bro is there a away to increase the resolution? Is the max on the Onexfly is 1920 x 1080? On the OXP Mini I can go higher. Any ideas?
The max resolution is indeed 1920x1080. You might be able to up render to then downconvert but it would be a massive hit for little to no benefits. Indeed, OneNetbook usually go for 1200p or 1600p. But keep in mind that 1200p is just 16:10, whereas the OneXFly is 16:9 so in other words, your resolution is the same, you just have less "vertical screen estate". As for 1600p, it is sweet without a doubt, like it is on the Legion fGo or example but driving games on that actual resolution is a bit much of an ask, at least for AAA and graphically demanding games.
@@GameTechTalk Could I use the app your suggested to change this "CRU"or maybe in adrenaline software?
@@icebergerking I would strongly recommend not going toward CRU to increase resolution. That's the equivalent of overclocking your panel, the risks of blowing something up by overdriving the panel increase considerably. Rather, I would expect that AMD has a software solution in their drivers.
Unfortunately, I have been a Nvidia guy nearly all my life so I wouldn't know where to start but for sure, it's got to exist. Or the 3rd option is whenever games have a "render" slider. By going past 100%, say 130%, you are essentially driving a 1440p signal to a 1080p panel. It does have slightly increased sharpness but can also make things look fuzzy cause it's beyond native panel resolution.
@@GameTechTalk I know I can use the "boarderless gaming" app but I don't want to depend on that everytime but Ill try the Amd software. Also are you on Facebook?
@@GameTechTalk It worked!!! Changing the res in AMD made the game go to full screen. Thank you!
When buying the onexfly, is there a need to instruct the seller to engrave nothing on the left side RGB or buy it as it is?
I wouldn’t know as much to be honest but yesterday I removed the plastic that covers the RGB in the corners and the system is quite a clever one, they have little plastic sheets and is covered in black to let RGB only shine to the letters.
In other words, making your own would be a pretty simple project. It’s almost like this plastic dividers to separate sections we used in school.
@GameTechTalk But when u ordered urs, did u instruct the seller anything cuz I saw in ur video that u have both RGB names as onexfly, or is that a default? Just in case I want to sell mine at some point that it's not named after me...
@@Yuu-oc7ye I didn't give any instructions no. Dual OneXFly (one on each side) is the default.
@GameTechTalk I really want to aim for this handheld, but it's stopping me from comparing it on Ayaneo Geek S1. In terms of software usage, which do u think is better?
@@Yuu-oc7ye Sorry that comment got past me somehow. I think it's a fair device to compare it too, from the standpoint of sharing more common aspects however, I would say that on nearly every little thing the OneXFly is superior. The audio is definitely superior, the rumble, the panel I find too but to be fair, I only saw the 800p on the Geek but I do have an AYANEO 2 which is supposedly the same panel as the 1200p Geek. Versus the 1200p, I find OneXPlayer still tweaked their 1080p panel better overall but is also a 120hz vs 60hz on the Geek. The 16:9 slim bezel of the OneXFly results in a lighter, more compact, and better balance ergonomics and weight versus the Geek. I'd give the Geek a single advantage and it is that they use larger analog stick caps.
And last, while AYASpace 2 improved a GREAT GREAT deal, I find that OneXPlayer's OneXConsole is considerably better in terms of ease-of-use and overall reliability and responsiveness. I hope this helps!
Can someone give me an idea of the battery life playing AAA games?
It depends on how much you crank it high (power wise) and how demanding the game is.
I'd say the absolutely worst case scenario pumping this thing to the absolute max without a care in the world (but it's pointless) on a super demanding game would be a bit more than an hour. I'd say overall, an hour half to two hours is more likely for decently demanding games at a decent TDP. I hope this helps!
My one x fly is now by
Set gpu ram. Vram on 512mb
Can i chance it to max 32gb or will it break😅
If you have a 64gb model, absolutely that you should set it to 32gb. That's what I'll be personally doing when I get mine. If you have a 32gb model, the "auto" setting seem to overall be a bit better from benchmark but it is an overall trivial difference in terms of how much of a difference it makes. Cheers! :)
@@GameTechTalk you mean with ,,Auto settings,, the Performance global framerate Limit?
Sorry my Specs information ist Not so perfekt. Its so sad that No one makes a Video with the best settings for one x fly.
@@phoenixshawn7015 When setting your vram buffer, it should give you options up to half of your total ram as well as auto. 16gb for modern operating systems nowadays is a bit cutting it short. It's enough but ideally, you have more. So when setting 16gb on a 32gb ram device, you're putting extra strain on your OS whereas 99% of the games won't REQUIRE 16gb of vram, though many will definitely utilize that much if you have it.
That is why auto will better manage what you need and where you need it and because of it, it'll sometimes equal to better performance overall but very little.
If you have a 64gb system, 32gb is more than plenty for OS and for games so that's why setting it to 32gb is just perfect overall, everyone aspects will get all they need without relying on the auto feature moving it back and forth.
Sorry for the wall of text, I hope this makes sense. Cheers :)
@@GameTechTalk ITS OK and have you any Tipps there i can max my one x Player to the best settings.
Sorry that i ASK you so much but realy i cant find a Video there someone explain IT what Everthing is for😅
@@GameTechTalk where can i Switch the vram to Auto. I can only scale how much i want ?
Hello ! I'm hesitating on buying a gaming handheld and I saw your comment on the onexfly website and then watched this video x) I saw you have the legion go and do you have the onexplayer2pro ? If you do do you think the onexfly is most worth buying than the onexplayer2pro,the legion go and the rog ally or even the steamdeck oled ? If you take the time to answer my comment I will really apreciate, I think you defenitly should have more subs, +1 from me, keep up the hard work 💪
Thanks for the kind words! I do not have the OXP2 Pro at the moment but I would suggest against it in favor of the OneXFly. It has extra features over the OXP2 Pro and is overall a better rounded product. If you are specifically after a bigger screen, I'd wait for OneXPlayer 1X reviews to come out (I'll be reviewing it when I get my unit).
Between the Legion Go and ALLY, I still prefer the OneXFly as it is overall a superior device but if I had to go with one of the two, the ALLY is the best of both. Better panel, better ergonomics, better audio and overall feel. It's also seriously cheaper if you can get an open box from BestBuy.
But yeah, if money is no object, I'd go with OneXFly. Steam Deck OLED is also top tier, you can't really go wrong but the more time goes by, the more limited you are in terms of games it can run, nonetheless, the library remains massive and SteamOS is pleasant to navigate if you like a "no brainer" kind of experience. Let me know if you have other questions! :)
J'ai continué à regarder tes vidéos et j'ai vu que t'es français x) c'est plus facile pour moi. Sinon ducoup tu pense que le onexfly est le meilleur par rapport aux autres en therme de performances et prix ?
Avec plaisir! En vrai, la Steam Deck OLED en rapport qualité/prix, c'est imbattable. Mais la différence payé pour un OneXFly est quand même notable, bien meilleur couverture de performance, Windows (je préfère), panneau 120hz mais surtout, support natif des pilotes AMD.
C'est chiant sur la ALLY et la Legion Go, mais sur la 7840U? Un vrai charme! J'apprécie les solutions grand public mais en vrai, le client doit "bosser" beaucoup plus pour facilité la compatibilité versus sur les puces AMD mainstream. N'hésite pas si tu as d'autres questions! @@clementclement955
Ok, merci beaucoup tu m'aides beaucoup 👍, et sinon tu avais parlé du onexeplayer 1x ? J'ai regardé et est ce que tu penses qu'il est plus intéressant que le onexfly ? Et par rapport à la batterie du onexfly, tu arrives à jouer combien de temps à peux près en mode portable en ayant minimum 30fps sur presque tous les jeux ? Sinon encore merci pour ton aide, j'apprécie les gens passionnés et qui partagent ❤️, bonne journée/soirée
Le OneXFly va être dur à battre, j'attendrais les revues du 1X avant de faire le saut. Pour ce qui est de la batterie, 1h30 dans les pires conditions je dirais, ça dépend énormément du jeu auquel on joue, plus c'est demandant, moins dure la batterie. Mais un petit jeu facile à rouler pour les ressources, du 5-6hrs est aussi réalisable.
Oui, le 30fps est de mise sur pas mal tout les jeux disponibles, peut-être faudra-t-il que les paramètres soient bas, ou encore de mettre la résolution en 720p, mais le 30fps est tjs possible, généralement, le 60fps est assez régulièrement atteignable aussi en 720p. En 1080p, ça dépend des jeux.
