We need more details on the GPU to truly gauge what type of performance we can expect from it. The PowerVR Series 6 gpu's range anywhere from >100GFLOPS to 500GFLOPS.

I would imagine this console would be much closer to the top end number, putting it at a similar GPU spec to last gen consoles. This is similar to iPhone 6 i would imagine.

That CPU is really not the best though.
