Move Over Anbernic, the GAMEMT E5 ModX Might Be The Weirdest Handheld of the Year
If you thought the handheld market was starting to look a little too predictable, GAMEMT is here to throw a serious wrench in the works. Enter the E5 ModX—a device so unconventional it makes your standard rectangular console look boring.
The big “aha!” moment here is that this thing is completely modular. The screen actually houses all the processing power and can be removed entirely from the controller. Depending on how you snap things together, it can function as a horizontal handheld, a vertical one, or just a standalone Bluetooth controller for your other devices. It even looks like it might play nice with iPhones via a MagSafe-style adapter.
Under the hood, don’t expect to run Cyberpunk on this. It’s packing a MediaTek P60, which means:
- Solid emulation: Think PSP, Dreamcast, and N64.
- Mid-range power: Better than budget chips, but not quite hitting high-end levels.
It’s definitely a “weird flex” for the retro gaming world, but if you’re tired of the same old form factors, this might just be your new obsession. Keep an eye out—a launch is reportedly coming soon!
