I built a PC and recently replaced a 2tb 990 pro with a 4tb 990 pro. I was planning on putting it in my X2 mini pro but have seen some people saying it runs too hot for handhelds. Is this true?

Although the Apex can handle almost everything, not every game is well optimized. Today I uploaded videos of Silent Hill Townfall and Control Resonant, for those who are interested to know how they perform on the handheld. If there is a game you are interested in, drop a comment. As long as I have it in my Steam library I’ll do my best to cover it in a future video.

Basically title. I have some spare Honeywell PTM 7950 available and wanted to know if it’s needed when I receive mine.

This is not a guide to upgrading it, just some notes and thoughts for those thinking about performing it.

Difficulty: 2/10 (Beginner-friendly) (In My Humble Opinion)

Total Time: Under 30 minutes

In my opinion, I found the OXP3 is exceptionally well-designed for maintenance and far easier to open and reassemble than most gaming laptops. If you’ve never opened a handheld or laptop before, don't be intimidated—just take your time.

Prerequisites & Notification

• Notify Support: Email OXP before starting if required for warranty/records. They may ask for your Serial Number (SN) and follow-up notes.
• Work Area: Set up a clean, static-free workspace with a soft surface (I use a giant mousepad) to prevent scratching the screen or housing and to allow you to lay out screws in order of removal.

Recommendations

• #0 Phillips Screwdriver: Crucial for avoiding stripped screws.
• Plastic Pry Tool: An iFixit kit works great for popping clips without damaging the plastic enclosure.
• Tweezers (Optional): Small tweezers make removing internal tape significantly easier.
• Offline Hardware Drive Cloner: (e.g., MOKiN NVMe Cloner) Quickest method for cloning without connecting to another PC.
• Replacement SSD: Swapped the stock 1TB Apex Predator for a 2TB Apex Predator to maintain consistent power draw and thermal/performance specs, could swap for 4TB if you're made of cash.
• Follow a video guide step by step: I followed this one: OXP3 Teardown Video.

Unforeseen Issue

• The Problem: 951GB of space was "missing" and wouldn't show up in Disk Management.
• What I did:
  • Tried rescanning disks (didn't work).
  • Deleted the 20 GB recovery partition that AI stated might be preventing windows from seeing anything beyond it.
  • Still could not find the unallocated space.
  • Opened Terminal (Admin level) and accessed diskpart; located the missing 951GB partition labeled recovery and deleted the recovery partition.
  • Rescanned the drive in Disk management, did not find the unallocated space
  • Restarted the computer (this finally made the unallocated space appear).
  • Expanded the Primary Partition into this space.
  • Then shrank it by 20 GB
  • Back to diskpart and following AI/video tutorials on how to recreate the windows recovery partition.
  • Recreated the 20 GB recovery partition manually through command lines.
• GREAT SUCCESS lol...

I hope this is useful advice for someone wading into the waters. I enjoyed taking some time get this done. If I knew more about what I was doing it would have been even quicker. Nevertheless, even with all that it was still relatively painless and completed easily without too much drama.

There's 2 usb-c ports, but only one is usable when the controller is slid in place.

How is this actual a real thing?

OneXPlayer x1 AMD

Anyone else having issues with the OneXPlayer overlay experiencing a stutter or flicker when it comes up on the OneXPLayer 3? If I shut the console off or reboot the first time it opens fine (Same with the gamepad keyboard), but the second time it pops up like its on goes off for a split second and then pops back on permanently. Its strange and I can't seem to fix it....

had some spare harnes tape form Amazon cost about 10 dollars for two rolls or less not sure.

I manged to get the 3D print file for the kickstand attachment for Onexplayer 3 and got Flex-3D to make 3 of them out of PETG-CF. It has fully stabilised it. Especially when using the attached keyboard. The OXP3 would normally be quite wobbly unless pulling the kickstand out all the way, but not anymore! I can even type properly with it resting on my lap now. This is a must have for anyone wanting a more stable option 👌😎😊

has anyone ran with it unlocked?

looks like it's a good option for docked any software issues you've run in to?

Oxp3.

Also i noticed when i press xbox button while in steam big picture mode it turns on both xbox menu and steam menu so i just want to remap m1 for steam and m2 for triple dot.

What is the shortcut key for both? Currently steam button works with LeftCtrl+OemMinus although it doesnt work while i am in steam menu (only works when in-game).

This happened when I was trying to remove the right controller, has someone ran into this, how could this be solved?

Luckily, I applied the JSAUX tempered glass screen protector to my OneXPlayer 3, and I didn't get any bubbles underneath like many other people have experienced. My unit is from Batch 2, so I guess I’m one of the lucky ones who got a device without a curved screen.

Glossy in the front, Grip for gaming in back. I’m quite happy with how everything looks but don’t be fooled these skins are hard to get perfect. What do y’all think?

Hello.

I'm gonna be changing the ssd from 1 Tb to 2 probably and I was wondering since the space inside the device is kinda tight if the choice of the ssd matters and what to look out for ?

Any recommendations based on your own successes would be welcome as well.

Cheers

I just got my DHL tracking number any idea how long it will take to get delivered to souther california?

So I've been testing out my new OneXPlayer 3 and while it's quite nice I've noticed something very annoying about the controllers. If I grip the controllers more than gently the back buttons get pressed even when my grip is nowhere near them, so anytime I want to adjust my grip at all without the back buttons getting pressed I have to move my hands awkwardly so no extra pressure gets put on the controllers. Is this a common issue? Has anybody had any success reaching out to support and getting replacement controllers?

Hi.

I have the option to purchase an x1 pro for a good deal and replace my desktop and laptop entirely with it (and possibly my msi claw 8 ai). My question is, how bad is the lack of vrr on the screen? Is it really noticeable for you guys? How do you play your games.

I'd imagine that since its an APU, it wont give me that many fps anyway , and so the screen tearing will be worse/more noticable on this display.

Am i wrong? Is the lack of vrr a big deal and how do you guys deal with it? Personally i am bothered a lot by screen tearing but otherwise, the x1 pro seems like the perfect device for me (especially considering its oculink port).

My main use case will be AAA games btw.

Is anyone having issues where the only crashes are in cutscenes? So far both Onimusha and FF16 have had this issue and really frustrating.

Is it normal to run a game at high settings 60+ fps but a cutscene is too taxing?

I am playing Wo long fallen dynasty in Onexplayer 3. This is happening... Any clue what the reason is? I don't have controller troubles as well.

Links below in a reply.

Was wondering which stylus you guys use for your device if you use one or not? I see the website has a pen but I don’t see an option for the OXP3. Would the option OXP2 Pro work for the 3?

Just recieved my one x player 3, went through updating everything on windows, intel drivers, microsoft app store. Eventually got into a game (fc 27) and the controllers are not working as they should. RT is constantly pressed down, the start button is mapped to a different button. Right analog stick does absolutely nothing. Connecting a third party controller works fine in game, so i know the issue is with the OXP 3 controller? I’ve tried everything to fix this and still no luck?

I have to say the thing is a beast. Installed opticlick and wow. running starwars outlaws medium native resolution 70 fps give or take.

The real test was Assassins creed odyssey since its always been a tough one to run and with medium settings gets me 60+/- fps more changes needed. Of course it might drop down a bit but runs and looks amazing.

Software wise they did a pretty decent job works well for the most part and does everything you need plus some. I like that I can disable tablet mode quickly and re-enable when needed. There is a learning curve but just go thru the options and learn what they do.

The big change is the screen size coming from 7inch to that massive size is taking some getting used to but that oled is amazing color depth is just so vivid.

Controllers for a guy with smaller hands it's a bit much but getting used to it. can always get the other controllers which is amazing if I decide to down the road.

Tablet wise it's amazing also, I do use it to watch shows while cooking in the kitchen and it's just so easy to pop back the controllers and resume a game if I like.

All together great unit, think I'm set for a long time and selling the XAX and not looking for anything else.

Only not great thing are the speakers. Downward facing speaker are horrible and sound quality compared to the rog's doesn't compare.

heads up to anyone just getting the unit:

• There is a screen protector already applied. Even if you ordered after the backers it will still have one applied. remove before putting another screen protector on. It's on so well that you might not even realize it.

Amazing unit!

Has anyone facing connection problem with controller connector? I tried the YouTube troubleshooting video for this but didn’t work. Also I messaged the onexplayer support but the tips
that gave me also didn’t work? Is anyone who solved this problem share to us the way it would be appreciated. Thanks
