Well I personally wouldn't expect the handheld/hybrid to be the exact same specs as the PS4. The spec would matter more in terms of what the PS5 console specs were, since it would be in the PS5 family, but hopefully the handheld/hybrid would be able to play PS4 games.

Saying AMD can't do what Nvidia can do is something you can only base on what's presently on the market at the moment. Based on the article it seems AMD may have something competitive with the Tegra line, but maybe they don't, and maybe that's why they have been so quiet about it, in which case a hybrid/handheld PS4/PS5 may be more unlikely.

The article doesn't give much info, but even with a low core count (and not many CU's?), it says it's only 02w TDP, and since Tegra is in the range of 15w TDP, that K12 APU should be able to be beefed up quite a bit to hit 15w. Even the low end Ryzen mobile APU chips are in the 15w range and are really impressive in how well they can handle games. Like not that far from PS4 impressive. At 720p they should play perfectly on a PS handheld/hybrid. I don't see how a $300 PS "Switch" isn't possible in the next year or two, assuming they already have something preliminary they can work off of, on top of seeing Switch's design and success.

Not just about Nvidia can do things that AMD can't, the best mobile chip at the moment is not close enough to ps4 yet, and you are saying AMD will create a new mobile chip can play ps4 games cost 250$ and battery last 3 hours that even Nvidia can't do now?

Pretty much this.

In fact I think only APPLE can feasably do that at this moment (if we theow out the price factor). Apple is the king of high end mobile RISK APUs, and thier latest chip is only comperable with an optimized switch game running docked.
