Thanks for reading this far! Do you have any games in particular that fit the OneXPlayer well? Let us know in the comments! Once I decided to just continue testing this device as if it had never had a touchscreen, I found that I barely missed it. Honestly, if One Netbook sold a version of the ONEXPLAYER without a touchscreen, I might still recommend it as decent handheld gaming computer, because it works almost as well without a touchscreen as it does with one… assuming you set your expectations properly. You’d probably never know that if you just run Windows. Even the BIOS/UEFI firmware settings menu is displayed in landscape mode. But try running Ubuntu or another GNU/Linux distribution and you’ll most likely boot into portrait mode by default. More on that below.

The ONEXPLAYER is the latest in a series of handheld gaming computers to launch this year. It follows the GPD Win 3 (with a 5.5 inch display, Intel Tiger Lake processor, and slide-up display which reveals a capacitive touch keyboard) and the AYA Neo (with a 7 inch display, no keyboard, and an AMD Ryzen 5 4500U processor).

This is one of the reasons competing devices like the GPD Win 3 and AYA Neo have 1280 x 800 or 1280 x 720 pixel displays. It increases the chances that games will run smoothly while also reducing power consumption.

But after spending the last few weeks with it, I can definitely see the appeal of a bigger, larger handheld gaming computer.

Welcome to our FAQ for the ONEXPLAYER – where we’ll go over all you need to know about this up-and-coming handheld gaming console! What is the ONEXPLAYER? One thing I haven’t done tried with the ONEXPLAYER is emulation. But YouTuber ETA Prime has us covered on that front, with a video that examines console emulation performance on the ONEXPLAYER.

The ONEXPLAYER features a whopping 15300mAh battery that supports power-delivery (PD) fast charging. This has been stated by One Netbook (as per the battery section in the ONEXPLAYER infographic FAQ) to handle “about 10 hours of local video playtime”. Actual lifetime when playing games will likely be anywhere from 2 to 7 hours depending on what’s being played. [FAQ] ONEXPLAYER Performance You know it!

Capable of outputting crisp, high-quality images in AAA games despite being a handheld device, the OneXPlayer is one of the best gaming handhelds to-date. Mouse works really well. So well, in fact, that I barely missed having a touchscreen. Text input using the on-screen keyboard can be a little tedious, but most other things are very easy to use with just the game controller buttons including launching and closing applications, moving, copying, or deleting files and folders, and, of course, playing games.
