The ONEXPLAYER X1 Mini is a handheld gaming PC with an 8.8 inch, 2560 x 1600 pixel, 144 Hz display, a pair of detachable controllers, and an AMD Ryzen processor. When it first launched a year ago as a slightly smaller alternative to the 10.95 inch ONEXPLAYER X1, the "mini" was powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 8840U Hawk Point processor.

Now One Netbook has added another processor option for folks looking for something with more horsepower. While the original model is still available, customers can now opt for a higher-performance model with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 Strix Point processor.

That's a newer chip that features 12 Zen 5 series CPU cores, 16 RDNA 3.5 GPU cores, and a Ryzen AI NPU that should deliver up to 50 TOPS of AI performance. It should bring a significant performance boost over the Ryzen 7 8840U, which has 8 Zen 4 CPU cores, 12 RDNA 3 GPU cores, and a 16 TOPS NPU.

At time of publication, you can pick up a Ryzen 7 8840U model with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of storage for $959, but the cheapest Ryzen AI HX 370 model is a $1459 version with 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD.

For the most part the only differences between the new model and the original are the processor and the price tag though:
