Attempting to bring this thread back to the main topic, supposedly the development kits for the main next gen Xbox is codenamed "Anaconda" according to Windows Central / Jez Corden.

There are allegations he’s a PR mouthpiece.

Just a little while ago he “guaranteed” Scarlett would be more powerful than PS5.

Portable would be PS4 Go, with Surface Pro-ish form factor. 10-11" 16:9 1080p panel. Single 10-15W SoC with 800MHz 18CU GPU plus either some process-optimized 8-core Jaguar or Zen 4-core at with HT if it's decent at emulating.
Memory done through a single HBM2 downclocked/undervolted to work at 1.4 Gbps (~178GB/s), stacked beneath the main SoC, which would be the component being cooled by the through-PCB heatsink. Some off-chip low-clocked and small LPDDR3/4 chip as app RAM.
256-512GB M.2 drive (probably SATA3 for cost savings, but supporting NVMe replacements) and MicroSD U2 for expansion.


Headset just makes no sense for this patent IMO.

I think a next gen console, such as a Switch 2, may be better served by WideIO2 as the pin count per bank is lower. It’s worth the mW/Gbps trade. Also, if they were interested in legacy support for their console, eMMC would probably have the bandwidth to equal an HDD or other legacy solution and allow for some cost savings.
