GameMT's Pocket Super Knob 5000 Trades the Second Stick for a Physical Knob

The unusual knob in place of a right stick raises real questions about playing modern dual-stick games.

Overview

  • The control sits on the bottom-right corner where many handhelds place a second thumbstick.
  • Confirmed hardware includes a MediaTek Helio G85 chip, a 5-inch 1080p display, and a Hall-effect thumbstick.
  • Early coverage highlights potential compatibility issues for titles that expect dual-stick camera or movement control.
  • There is no official release date, with an April timeframe only suggested by social media posts rather than confirmed by GameMT.
  • The PS Vita–style design and modest specs position the device as a budget option in a crowded field that includes Retroid Pocket 6 and Konkr Pocket Fit.
