OLED Handheld with AMD Ryzen 9 Aims to Compete with Steam Deck OLED, Runs Black Myth: Wukong at 50-60 FPS in 1080p Low Settings

In a recent move, handheld gaming company OneXPlayer released a teaser video on YouTube featuring their upcoming device, the Onexfly F1 Pro. This intriguing gadget is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, a part of the cutting-edge Ryzen AI 300 series known as Strix Point. The device, named the Onexfly F1 Pro, sports a 7-inch screen and has been showcased running the game Black Myth: Wukong with frame rates ranging from 50 to 60 FPS.

The Onexfly F1 Pro boasts an ultra-modern 7-inch OLED display that supports HDR and refreshes at 144Hz. Weighing in at 598 grams and equipped with Harman Kardon speakers, it comes equipped with the powerful Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 CPU. This CPU incorporates four Zen 5 cores, eight Zen 5c cores, and AMD’s advanced Radeon 890M integrated GPU featuring 16 compute units based on the RDNA 3.5 architecture. With this impressive configuration, the Onexfly F1 Pro aims to compete with heavy hitters like the Steam Deck OLED, ROG Ally X, and Lenovo Legion Go.

In the video, OneXPlayer demonstrates the F1 Pro running Black Myth: Wukong at 1080p using low-quality settings and 65% upscaling, resulting in an effective resolution of 1248 x 702. Under these conditions, the AI 9 HX 370-powered handheld achieved an average of 58 FPS. During these trials, the device maintained a power consumption rate capped at 15 watts.

The Onexfly F1 Pro marks a first for OneXPlayer by combining an OLED display with AMD’s latest Zen 5 technology. Previously, their devices featured older generation Intel or AMD processors and standard displays. This new Zen 5-powered handheld is set to make a splash in the market, accompanied only by the GPT Pocket 4, which is also set to use the Ryzen AI HX 370.

Comparatively, the GPT Pocket 4 is a hybrid device, offering a keyboard and 180-degree flip screen, whereas the F1 Pro is designed as a true handheld with traditional grips and controls.

Through this teaser, OneXPlayer highlights that the AI 9 HX 370 excels in portable gaming environments, capable of handling demanding AAA games efficiently even at a moderate 15W thermal design power to optimize battery use. As AMD’s dedicated handheld CPUs have yet to launch, device makers currently rely on the Ryzen AI 300 series, originally meant for laptops.
