PS6 Handheld Will Come With Nintendo Switch Inspired Feature – Report

A new report by a reliable leaker claims that the PS6 family PlayStation handheld will take some notes from Nintendo Switch. Specifically, the device will reportedly come with a full-fledged docked mode alongside a Handheld mode.

PlayStation handheld accompanying PS6 reportedly has a docked mode supporting 1.65 GHz

The leaker in question is YouTuber Moore’s Law Is Dead (MLID), who has proven to be reliable when it comes to PlayStation specs leaks. In a new video, MLID claims that the PS6 handheld will support 1.20 GHz in handheld mode and about 1.65 GHz in docked mode with 16 CUs RDNA5 GPU.

MLID also doubled down on his claim that the handheld will be backwards compatible with both PS5 and PS4 games. The leak further mentions a touchscreen, a MicroSD slot, M.2 slot, dual mics, and support for haptic feedback.

MLID also made some major claims, including ray tracing performance on par with PS5 Pro in some games, but did add that games will require a patch for their handheld performance to match that of the base PS5’s, so not all games will run on the same level.

As for price estimates, MLID believes that the handheld will cost somewhere between $399 and $499, based on the specs that he’s reported thus far.
