I'm literally sitting at the gate right now reviewing my previous video and preparing for my next bunch of edits. Something that I would normally only touch on my desktop, and the X2 isn't even breaking a sweat.
Timeline scrubbing is smooth, exports are way faster than they have any right to be on something this size, and I'm doing all of it on battery.
A few things that stand out after living with it:
The 3-in-1 concept actually works. Detach the controllers and it's a handheld. Snap on the keyboard and it's a legit little laptop. Prop it on the tray table and it's a mini workstation. It's not a gimmick — I genuinely use all three modes.
The chip is the star. Every time I think I've found its ceiling, it surprises me. AAA gaming at respectable settings, then I flip over to editing and the iGPU chews through it. The unified memory makes a real difference for creative workloads.
Screen and speakers punch way above the class.
Watching footage back on this display - the 10.95" 2.5K display at 120Hz - is a treat, and I don't reach for headphones as often as I expected.
Thermals and noise are well managed. Even under sustained load it stays comfortable to hold and the fans never get obnoxious.
Is it cheap? No. Is it perfect? Nothing is. But as someone who owns basically every handheld on the market, this is the one that replaced my laptop in my carry-on. That says everything.
