Eurogamer's leak is not really sourced. There is nothing backing it up but their reputation, and they even state that they sat on the info for months, while we heard just before that that the final devkits were more powerful than july dev kits.

Foxconn rumor from december actually was proven true on friday when Nintendo revealed the Switch fully.

The foxconn rumor here: https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwi...at_foxconn_is/
- leaks that the shoulder buttons on the joycons are called SL and SR. Which is confirmed and can be seen in pictures and video of the device.

-leak also says that the device will be bundled with an "orange" and blue joycon, which was confirmed friday with the neon bundle. (his assumption was that it was a splatoon bundle)

-leak also says the battery capacity is 4310mah, which is pretty much impossible to guess, and was confirmed friday.

-leak confirmed 4GB

-leak confirmed 1600mhz ram

-leak confirmed no fan in dock

-leak confirmed USB-C and all ports of the dock correctly (including those hidden by the back panel)

-leaked the very complex joycons.

Says the CPU is clocked at 1.78ghz and assumes it is A73 (it could also be A72, but wouldn't be A57 because power draw would be too high) (this also makes sense because the 20nm A57 4 core @ 1ghz consumes the same power as A72 at 1.7ghz.

Says the GPU is 921mhz instead of Eurogamer's 768ghz.

Nate was saying pascal, and it looks like it is 16nm SoC.

I'd say this rumor is far more believable than the Eurogamer one simply because of all the above confirmed info. There is simply no way this person didn't see the device at foxconn and the location he originally posted from was foxconn, so it is all but accepted at this point.
about 1080p there's translation error from reddit and corrected by gaf user gtx990
No, I can read Chinese original post. The resolution is the signal's resolution sent to the TV, not the screen on the device. And the translator mixed leak and speculation.

and about 4g edition it may/not true, need to wait until nintendo finalise their hardware announcement like os/network/edition.

OP do you have the original document in chinese? or a link to it?
