why it matters: Handheld gaming market is not a stranger for innovation, but some devices may be more innovative than others. One of these is rather sweet-sounding Vanxugar Sugar 1. The chunky device, with its 6.01-inch main display, has a cleverly integrated 3.92-inch secondary screen that slides and flies out, the sugar 1 converts 1 into a dual screen setup on demand.
Onexsugar Sugar 1 is the brain yield of a netbook, which is the Chinese company behind the onexplayer line of handheld gaming PC, and sugarcubes, a design firm known for its offbeat handheld creation. When everything is folded, the device resembles the nintendo switch.
However, this is the place where equality ends. Unlike the viosual joy-cubes of the switch, the controllers on sugar swing upwards, changing the device into a dual screen setup that reminds the Nintendo DS.
If you have ever thought that if the nintendo switch and a nintendo DS are connected together, what will happen, Vanaxugar Sugar 1 can only be the answer.
The controllers also include “magnetic” joystics, although the exact meaning is unclear. It refers to either hall effect sticks or gamepads in place.
For the platform, the device runs on Android and is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon G3 General 3 processor. Qualcomm claims that the new chip promotes 30% in CPU performance and 28% in the GPU performance compared to its predecessor, Snapdragon G3X Jean 2.
But let’s be real – here are the dual screens of the show’s stars. The emulation community, especially, possibly already more than the idea of playing DS games on a device that mimics the original hardware form factor.
He said, Onexsugar is not without its quirks. For one, it digs the traditional D-pad and action button layout in favor of two symmetrics of action buttons. This strange option appears to be a bypractor of flip-end-rotate design, which enables the use of the top screen. This is a clever solution, but it can use for some traditional gamers.

One thing will not be ONEXSUGAR. A Windows Gaming is a headheld. Qualcomm has made it clear that, for now, at least, meditation is square on Android. A company spokesperson indicated on the verge that China’s mass Android gaming market would be a major driver for such devices.
OneXSUGAR is ready to hit indeiegogo for pre -order in May this May, although pricing and availability details are still wrapped.
