SIXUNITED Debuts AMD Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 Laptop With 192GB of LPDDR5X Memory

Chinese manufacturer SIXUNITED says its AXN88B-160M-YD is the first laptop built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495, carrying 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533 memory and an expected price near $10,000.

The memory configuration of the machine, designated AXN88B-160M-YD, is unusual for a portable computer. The 192GB total is rated at 8,533 MT/s, a combination rarely seen outside workstation-class hardware, and the report notes it raises the question of who actually needs that much capacity on the move. SIXUNITED has not detailed exact pricing or a wider international release, but the laptop is expected to retail for about $10,000, more than comparable desktop workstations and gaming laptops fitted with high-end discrete graphics chips.

Much of the hardware points toward artificial intelligence and professional workloads rather than gaming. AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ chips pair a CPU with an integrated GPU and a large unified memory pool for on-device AI tasks, while traditional gaming laptops depend on dedicated graphics cards with their own video memory rather than shared system memory. The laptop's power delivery reaches 120W, a figure closer to workstation-class machines than to typical thin-and-light gaming notebooks. Its audio comes from a pair of small 2W speakers, which the report describes as better suited to video calls than immersive gaming sessions.

The 16-inch display supports 2560 x 1600 resolution at a 120Hz refresh rate with wide color gamut coverage, and can rotate up to 145 degrees. Storage expansion runs through two M.2 2280 SSD bays on the PCIe Gen4 interface, which the report says allows fast upgrades for users handling large AI datasets.

Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4, two USB-C ports rated at 40Gbps, an HDMI 2.1 output with fixed-rate link for connecting external high-refresh monitors during extended work sessions, a 2.5GbE RJ-45 port, a USB-A 5Gbps connector, a faster USB-A port rated at 10Gbps, and a UHS-II SD card slot. A single 3.5mm jack handles both headphone output and microphone input.

The chassis is built from metal and carries a full-key RGB backlit keyboard alongside a fingerprint sensor for quick logins. The laptop weighs about 2.1kg and measures 18.35mm thick, with a dual battery setup rated at 99.9Whr and 85Whr combined. The built-in camera is a modest 2MP sensor paired with an infrared module that also enables secure face-based login.

Taken together, the report concludes that the configuration is aimed squarely at professionals rather than casual gamers, and that marketing it as a gaming laptop looks questionable when its strongest selling point is local AI memory capacity. On those strengths, the machine is more likely to appeal to developers or researchers than to gamers chasing higher frame rates. The report was published via ITHome, which originally reported in Chinese.

Editor's Summary

SIXUNITED has announced the AXN88B-160M-YD, described as the first laptop built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ Pro 495 processor and equipped with 192GB of LPDDR5X-8533 memory. The expected price of roughly $10,000, 120W power delivery and 2W speakers place it closer to a mobile AI workstation than a gaming notebook. No exact pricing or international launch details have been disclosed.
