I guess sonys handheld be the first to utilise amds UDNA with newer gpu and other features u won't see in the current handheld space. I was hoping to hear with sony having 20/24 gig of ram running at 9600MT and use an oled display of 1200p screen

So when DF says they understand there is a PS portable in development does Gaffers think they just mean from internet rumors or from their own sources?

probably their own sources,
but at this point, either way, it's pretty much confirmed I'd say.

stuff like this is way harder to keep a secret nowadays. the hardware needs to be designed and tested... and who else but game consoles use low power custom AMD hardware?
so the moment such an APU is getting designed and tested, you instantly confirm the existence of a new console being developed. and someone at AMD is gonna spill the tea eventually.

sometimes this also gets leaked due to driver stuff, or leaked benchmarks due to AMD themselves not being cautious enough.

Even DF are using their sources and match what the neoGAF leaker told, not to mention they talk about the neoGAF leaker inself.
 
Disappointing specs on the Sony handheld, unless it works like the Switch and docks into the PS6.

well, I don't think you can get much better specs than that out of an AMD handheld and sell it at a reasonable price and when trying to maintain decent battery life.

Based on the written article that's been broken off in to the other thread, it looks like all the information they have originates from K KeplerL2

I think it's been very clear for a long time now that they don't have many friends inside Sony.
