Okay you talked me into it. I just ordered the X1 10.9" Cant wait!

[doolittle_]

So happy to see these reviews. Great job on both. I was surprised you liked the controllers, because that right thumbstick looks unusable to me. It's the main reason I haven't pulled the trigger on the X1.

[GameTechTalk]

That is one sexy handheld that X1 Mini! I like the balance between how more convenient that it can be as a gaming handheld while still retaining a good essence of being a laptop and a tablet. Great video, thanks!

1Net simply needs to make better controllers for the X1 - We've all discussed this in the discord.

Basically copy the Steam deck layout - Bigger controls allows for better spacing, alignment (especialy for D-pad and right thumbstick). better balance for the whole unit because it is both top and bottom heavy.

The new controls allow for = 2 x trackpads, 4 x back buttons/pedals

would like 1Net to sell either as premium extras (don't be afraid to charge significantly more)
- have 4 x shoulder buttons (still keep 2 x triggers)
- have 4 x macro buttons next to the 4 x shoulder buttons (something similar to Ayaneo's handhelds)

- blue tooth

If at all possible can be used without a bridge connector.

quality test to make sure of a sturdy connection to the tablet and not loose like many of us are experiencing.

Charge a lot more if needed.

This is a premium top of the top handheld after all.

[AdmiralBison]

Other improvements many of us have discussed in Discord we would like to see for the X2 or later generation X series.
- built in kickstand - like the Legion Go or Microsoft Surface Go
- 8TB internal SSD support AND 8TB expandable slot support
- bigger trackpad on keyboard - if possible, haptics like the MacBook and better spread-out touch
- USB-C placement bottom side left of the device for in laptop use, top top left (to allow bigger controller), the right-side USB-A and micro-SD slot may also need to be moved bottom side right and top top right.

USB 4.2 hopefully would be available by then with its purported 80Gbps speed meaning occulinc no longer required and freeing up physical space on the top of the device for those USB-C/A placements.

Another great and informative video! You make great points distinguishing the two devices. Your video makes me even more excited to receive my mini!

[JB-tpuj]

Bought an X1. I don't know if I can go back to a screen smaller than this 11". It is glorious! Neither d-pad is great for fighting games, but it's serviceable. Otherwise, I love the versatility of this thing; all of the best aspects of a laptop, tablet and gaming device in one.

[julienbgt]

Thks. Without Pen, it's noway. I Keep my LGO or I go For X1 ❤❤

[TheGamingCirclePodcast]

Great review. Looking forward to my X1 Mini shipping

[AccordingAshShow]

Excellent video!! I have a quick question tho, does your controller connector discharge battery at an alarming rate? Mine can be fully charged and set aside and left unused for a few days and as soon as i turn it on the light is flashing indicating super low battery power

[บุลวัชร์เตรียมพิทักษ์]

Can you test versus Legion Go, Ally X, Other 8840u handheld?

[tomoprime]

Both X1's are too clunky looking for my tastes. I still love my og gpd win mini. Hope somebody designs upgraded sticks, they get the job done but I feel they can be improved. I mean they are the same as the Win Max2.

[iiReaperv]

Much more interested in seeing how games perform at 800p

[kirkilos]

Hi @OKestGamer Looking to change X1 mini analog sticks for tighter ones as I don’t really like the loose feel of the current ones, any recommendations on which sticks to buy?

[nsen]

720p fsr quality is sweet spot for handheld gaming...

[CarloneLNGLD]

Did you get the AMD X1 or the X1 mini? Which is better? Does the 120hz vs 144hz screen make a huge difference playing online?

[BlickyLake]

Hey! Did you ever install tighter modules on the controller for the sticks? I feel like they are way too loose and I’d like to upgrade them if possible.

[TheKinoal]

Thanks 😊 great test thanks for your great test !

[inight]

Legion Go Controllers are a super comfy disaster, these are just as comfy but the LG constantly touching things when you don't want or no responsive when you do. Viture glasses are great for all these I agree completely One of my favourite machines the win max almost but it gave me almost permanent carpal tunnel but an amazing machine some not bad 3D printed grips which make thing much better but thumb track balls and rpgs are on of the best use cases for that swiss army knife of machines(skyrim on line etc) for me the mini is the best i have trie, so far, comfort and almost all a round i have only has the mini a couple of weeks but it prob equal to place with th gpd win min with the for factor AND clam shell, bosh in your pocket! I want to try the x1 now... my wife is going to kill me. as someone said earlier imagine 5 years! My wife will have definitely killed me for digital digresion by then. edit : soz mate great review btw!!

[inviy]

Nice review. The connector required for the off-console controller is really dumb. The idea is good, but the overall design is really bad.
