Reports Detail Dockable PS6 Handheld ‘Canis’ With Custom AMD APU

The unconfirmed leak stems from a Moore’s Law Is Dead video citing alleged AMD documents.

Overview

  • Coverage cites claims that Sony is planning a Switch-style handheld that docks to a TV and boosts performance, targeting roughly 1.20GHz in handheld mode and about 1.65GHz when docked on a 16‑CU RDNA 5 GPU.
  • The purported Canis APU combines four Zen 6c CPU cores with two low‑power Zen 6 cores for system tasks, with reports pointing to native support for PS5 and PS4 software.
  • Leaked memory details describe a 192‑bit LPDDR5X‑8533 interface with high potential RAM configurations and features including a microSD slot, an M.2 slot, dual microphones, haptics and a touchscreen.
  • Performance estimates from the source suggest the device could outpace ASUS’s ROG Xbox Ally X and approach or exceed base PS5 results in some docked scenarios, especially with FSR 4 and game patches.
  • Price speculation centers on $399–$499 with a 2027 or later window alongside PS6, as multiple outlets note that none of the specifications are confirmed and raise cost, power and feasibility questions.
