The only thing not [redacted] about everything MLID said in this video is that PHX2 exists. And that's been known for a long, long, looooooooooooooooooooong time now.Steam Deck 2
- Most of the info is from MLID; the new APU is codenamed Little Phoenix which is derived from upcoming Phoenix Point from AMD with lesser CPU and GPU cores
- With Zen4 and RDNA3 features, the upcoming Steam Deck 2 might be getting double performance than current one
- The only issue is stock availability, AMD has just started moving the whole desktop, laptop and server CPU not to mention RDNA3 GPU to TSMC N5/N4 process, so don’t expect Steam Deck 2 ready before end of 2023
Sadly I doubt this or any of the parts reductions in recent PS5 revisions will result in price reductions for the console 😢
PS5's APU has been updated to 6nm EUV version, reducing die size from ~300mm2 to 260mm2. Now it is Xbox turn...
Not for a while still.

- 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM
- Same NVMe M.2 2230 SSD storage modules
- Same potentiometer joysticks (not Hall effect)

- Same buttons (some are clickier, like shoulder buttons and Steam key)
- Same screen resolution and aspect ratio (1280 x 800)
- User-selectable fixed refresh rates (no VRR or AMD FreeSync)
- Same driver-level AMD features (no frame generation, for example)
- Same power supply wattage (45W USB-C PD, does not charge faster than 45W)

- Same game compatibility
- Same software updates
- Same starting price for a Steam Deck, period — but $400 now buys you the old LCD model with 256GB of NVMe storage, rather than the new OLED or the old 64GB LCD model with eMMC
Probably some inside joke from the dude. 02/14 is valentine's dayI am watching SadlyItsBradley video about unboxing Apple's Vision Pro, then suddenly he flashed the cards above stating Valve Deckard with 02/14/2024. Is Deckard really coming so soon?
I don't know about soon, it's overdue at this point.Is Deckard really coming so soon?
He specifically said that it's a schizopost from a random discord group member, don't take it seriously. in fact don't take anything from it 😶🌫️PS6 APU posted by Everest:
