Given that AMD doesn't make 3-core CPUs anymore, that would suggest either an IBM processor or an ARM one. That last option seems the more likely, with the only doubt of the configuration, 2 big plus 1 little cores? Or is it the other way around?

And that configuration, if true, could work for an hybrid device: in handheld mode only one tri-core module works, and in home console mode it's both of them that power on.

I think you didn't read the information correctly it's not a 3 core CPU it's a 6 core one.

If it were a six core CPU, then it would be described as a six core CPU, not "Dual 3 Core Modules".

The way it's written, it looks like a pair of tri-core CPUs working together, like the Jaguar cores of PS4/X1 that consist of two 4-core processors working together.
