I can't vouch for the article itself, but I've always seen a device such as a 3DS or a VITA  as a handheld while several outlet have shared my view as well.

A handheld what?

Simply calling it a handheld doesn't make sense because the word handheld just describes something that you hold in your hand, it doesn't actually state what the product is.

The technical term would be handheld console or handheld gaming device. Handheld describes the form factor while console/gaming device states what the product is.

Actually, the word console doesn't necessarily indicate that something is a piece of gaming hardware, since there are other types of consoles.

A handheld is a handheld gaming machine, a console is a gaming console.

I've always counted them as seperate things, as do most gaming sites, and Metacritic themselves.
