OneXPlayer has taken the gloves off with the OneXFly Apex, its most powerful gaming handheld yet loaded with high-end specs, an optional liquid cooling system, and a blistering 120 Hz display.
OneXFly Apex pushes the limits of handheld performance
The OneXFly Apex isn’t messing around. Starting at $1,399, this Windows-powered handheld can be configured with AMD’s Ryzen AI Max 385 or Max+ 395 both from the Strix Halo family built on Zen 5. These chips pack 8 and 16 cores respectively, and come paired with Radeon 8050S or 8060S graphics. That makes this more than a portable emulator box it’s a serious gaming machine.
What really turns heads is the Apex’s hardware ceiling. OneXPlayer offers up to 128 GB of LPDDR5X RAM at 8,000 MT/s. That’s laptop-level (if not workstation-level) territory. Storage is also aggressive: 2 TB of PCIe 4.0 base storage, with room to expand across microSD, Mini SSD, or both for a wild total of up to 8 TB.
Apple may limit OLED, touch, and redesign upgrades to M6 Pro and Max MacBook Pros, leaving base M6 models looking unchanged.
OneXFly Apex cooling options make a difference
Not content with just shoving flagship silicon into a small frame, OneXPlayer also offers a Liquid Cooled Version. This variant adds only 70 grams to the standard 669 g weight but lifts the power cap to 120 W from 80 W, giving both Ryzen chips more breathing room under load.
Here’s what stands out between the two:
- Standard version: Air-cooled, 80 W
- Liquid Cooled version: 120 W thermal headroom
- Weight increase: +70 g
- Performance gain: noticeable, especially under sustained gaming
OneXFly Apex display raises handheld standards
The screen isn’t an afterthought either. The 8-inch IPS panel hits 500 nits brightness, covers 100% of the sRGB color space, and runs at a 1920×1200 resolution with 120 Hz VRR. Whether you’re gaming or streaming, that’s a big leap over the dull 60 Hz panels still stuck on most handhelds.
This gaming handheld means business
OneXPlayer isn’t chasing Steam Deck clones anymore the Apex plays in a different league. Even the base model ships with an 85 Wh external battery, and the total package feels engineered for enthusiasts who don’t mind dropping serious cash for raw specs.
OneXFly Apex goes global ahead of 2026 launch
The OneXFly Apex is now available to order worldwide via Indiegogo, with shipments expected to begin on January 31, 2026. With its bold pricing and no-compromise hardware, it’s clearly aimed at power users. If that’s you, the future of handheld gaming just got a lot more tempting.
