Mogozen's new CG Deck handheld PC swaps input modules to adapt between gaming, typing, and macro control. The device runs on an Intel Processor N150 and supports both Windows 11 and Linux. Its 5-inch touchscreen hits 1,000 nits brightness, making it usable outdoors.
Swappable input modules adapt to gaming, typing, and macros
The CG Deck is a compact handheld PC weighing 590 grams. It uses a swappable input system: a gamepad with D-pad, analog sticks, and ABXY buttons; a QWERTY keyboard; and a macro pad with RGB lighting and a trackball. This design lets users reconfigure the device for different tasks without carrying extra peripherals.
