DROIX blog review of the aokzoe-a1-pro. Published 2023-07-20 on droix.net.

FPS / Gaming Performance

  • Cyberpunk 2077 can still push devices to its limits as we can see on the benchmark results. We are testing on the Lowest graphics settings and can see that only at 800P we get above 60 FPS.
  • The gaming performance is overall much the same as the AYA NEO 2S portable gaming computer which we reviewed a few weeks back. Let’s take a brief look at some games as part of the AOKZOE A1 Pro review, for their best graphics above 60 FPS when possible, and also for best battery life.
  • For Call of Duty Modern warfare 2 you can run at 800P Balanced with FSR and get above 60 FPS, usually around 70-80 area. You can switch off FSR and it will mostly stay above 60.
  • If you want the highest frame rates, drop the graphics to Minimal and you will be in the 90 FPS area.
  • If you wanted to save battery then you could go down to 800P and lower the TDP to around 10W for above 60 FPS. The graphics settings non non-existent, but you could manually limit the game to 30 FPS and lower the TDP some more.
  • Without FSR at 1200P Ultra graphics, we got above 60 FPS with occasional dips below. I would set it to High for a more stable frame rate for busier scenes and get well above 60.
  • For battery life, you can set it to 800P Low graphics locked to 30 FPS and the TDP to just 8W, or for 60 FPS set it to 12W.
  • I could not get a stable above 60 FPS frame rate on 1200P Medium settings. Personally I would go with 800P and you can crank the graphics up to Ultra Nightmare and stay above 60 FPS.
  • If you want to save battery you can go down to Low graphics at 60 FPS with around 15W TDP.
  • Our go to game Vanquish works great and we saw very good performance on Project Gotham Racing 2, though there were some dips below 30 FPS now and again.

Emulation Notes

  • PS3 Emulator gameplay with Tekken 6
  • Yuzu emulator gameplay
  • With Yuzu & Ryujin you will see less time generating shader caches. Compatible games do however run very well once the shader caches have been generated. First and third party games are definitely playable.
