It seems like the race for the new AMD APUs is in full swing, and a lot of companies are starting to take advantage of it!

ONE-NETBOOK also released a video testing games on the 8840U version of the handheld, and it looks like it will be able to back up the power they are pushing. And I couldn’t be happier about it.
The new OneXPlayer 2 Pro 8840U Edition will be releasing on the OneXPlayer store in two days, March 13th at midnight (PST). There will be two versions available and will come with a tempered glass screen protector and case during the pre-sale period:
