Major PS6 Handheld Specs Leak Puts Even the Xbox Ally X to Shame
Sony plans three PlayStation 6 versions including a dockable handheld with AMD Canis APU, priced between $399-$499, aiming for affordability and lower power use, per credible leaks.
Sony plans to release the PlayStation 6 in autumn 2027 along with a dockable handheld console that boosts performance when connected to a TV.
This release follows recent PS5 price increases and reflects Sony's new strategy to offer an affordable device with lower power consumption and versatile play options.
Leaked specs from Moore's Law Is Dead indicate the handheld will have a 1.20 GHz mode undocked and a 1.65 GHz docked, featuring AMD’s RDNA 5 GPU and up to 48GB RAM.
The handheld is expected to cost between $400 and $500, outperform the ROG Xbox Ally X, and be backward compatible with PS4 and PS5 titles while including features like a touchscreen and microSD slot.
These developments suggest Sony aims to compete strongly in the handheld market by borrowing proven concepts from Nintendo and avoiding past confusion experienced during the PS5 launch.
