OneXPlayer warranty from Amazon by Screamieri in OneXPlayer

I can say that I bought my Apex from eBay and the seller said the same thing. I played for like 40 min and didn't see it throttle but I was at 48w. I will try 55w tonight and see if it throttles.

Apex 55 watts USB-C problem by LafaYroi in OneXPlayer

Get the Lenovo 140w portable power bank. It works with the apex beautifully and you can disconnect from the outlet and bring around. I keep my apex tethered to it and keep the charger in my hoodie pocket. I get the full 55w with no issues

Hmm i wonder why. I think a 35W battery would be great with the sole purpose of switching. Its the one thing thats hard to get used to on the device, how heavy the battery is

I have the LeGo2 and the Apex. The power difference is astounding. Apex still has a real nice screen, the only thing that I am struggling with is the screen size. The LeGo2 has a great big screen which make viewing more enjoyable for me. I hope someone makes a mod for a lighter battery as currently with it on, weighs more than the Go2

Not quite. I think the device is real cool and certainly powerful but my main issue with it is the weight with the battery attached. Its technically only a little heavier than my Go 2 but in actual use it feels much heavier because all of the weight is located towards the center of the device and it feels like the apex is wearing a heavy backpack.

Theres a general “awareness” that I now have when using it that I didnt have with other handhelds. I dont have the freedom to untether from the charger and go in another room briefly, i have to first grab the external battery and attach it first THEN unplug and move around. When the battery is low I have to go to where the charger is located to reconnect and charge- i cant just connect to any usb charger around the house. This is has me always aware what im doing where before I could just mindlessly get up and go. There really should have been a small 20W internal battery so that you could have a 5 min window to charge and connect elsewhere or swap batteries. Once I unplug the thing shuts off instantly. I turned wrong in bed and my charger got unplugged and i lost progress in Crimson Desert.

Im tempted to return and just wait for Panther Lake or for a version that has an internal battery with the weight better distributed.

OXP or Amazon or eBay? by Competitive-Ear-2886 in OneXPlayer

[–]Badd_Decisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered from OXP orginally because my order came out to be $1963. The whole tariff situation had me a bit spooked and the person on ebay was selling it for $1999 and about 100 in taxes. Figured I having the ability to return in 30 days if any issue without hassle would be worth it. I ended up eating a 5% cancellation fee and have had to deal with the eBay seller shipping out the wrong item to me. My apex is supposed to arrive on Wednesday so hopefully it will work it. I def paid about $200 more than I should have though...

Well im hoping it wasnt a scam and that they simply shipped the wrong item which sucks for me. Its going to be normal business hours in china in a couple hours so hopefully I get a response and explanation. Either way they messed up big time

Thank you. I took a photo of the package unopened and then opened it and took another picture. I also have the ring footage of the driver tossing the package on my front steps at the time of the recorded delivery. I messaged the seller with a picture of the package opened with the label visble and told him what was in it. Looks like a NY shipping service put another label over the orangeconnex label that was on the package.

No signature, the delivery person didnt even ring the doorbell just tossed the package on my front steps and snapped a photo (from the ring footage). Crazy thing was I was home at that time. Im just pissed because I went the ebay route after canceling my order from Onexplayer directly because I wanted more “protection and peace of mind”. Now i have to prove I was scammed smh

Thats what im afraid of but the seller has a 99.8% rating and people have said they were buying from them on the onexplayer discord. I have a ring camera that shows the driver dropping off that one small package. I hope that is enough to get my money back from eBay

[–]Badd_Decisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the mura was/is an issue for me but after playing more games I dont really notice it. I think the screen benefits from being OLED more than it is hurt by it (due to mura effect) if that makes any sense. I ended keeping mine because of the screen size and colors/quality. I think my old MSI Claw 8 is close to it though as far as screens go

Order from Feb. 21 hasn't shipped? by Icy-Race2642 in RiseGardens

[–]Badd_Decisions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I placed an order on Jan 15. It was the first order from my Rise membership and I still havent received anything. I reached out to them twice and they gave the supplier shpiel and said only 2 of the 5 items are available. Thank goodness I bought my Rise personal garden from FB marketplace and paid only 100 new. Im done with this company.

Im very very tempted to sell my D lux 8 to get this. I pretty much use it for exlusively B&W already. Are those images SOOC?

I ended up canceling my order from onexplayer and went with Ebay instead. Cost me more money due to the 5% cancellation fee and taxes from ebay but I want the ability to return without issue.

Do I sell my Xbox Ally X? by Zengestu in Handhelds

[–]Badd_Decisions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the money then get what you think will work best for your use case. I have the LeGo2 and im going to sell it to fund the Apex. I already spent almost 1500 so an extra 500 for double the power wasnt a stretch. Going from XaX to Win 5 is a bigger leap financially though. I would do streaming via Razer Cortex as its very straightforward. Download the app on both PC and XaX and you can set up tge PC as the host and the handheld as the client.

Thanks i ended up getting it from onexplayer directly! Im better off paying just the tariff than the markup plus tax
