Rumor has it that AMD's next generation of mobile APUs, codenamed Grimlock, may not reach consumers until 2029. This speculation comes from leaker Kepler_L2, who claims that these APUs will feature AMD's RDNA 5+ graphics and Zen 7 CPU cores. The Zen 7 CPU architecture is expected to debut alongside the Grimlock iGPUs in 2029, although AMD has previously cited minimum shipment requirements as the reason for not offering RDNA 5 to PC manufacturers.
Prior to 2029, AMD is rumored to release the Ryzen Z3 series APUs, which combine Zen 6, Zen 5, and RDNA 4 graphics. Canis, a Sony handheld device featuring Zen 6 CPU cores and RDNA 5 graphics, could arrive in late 2027, potentially serving as a companion to the PlayStation 6. Zen 7 processors, codenamed Ravenna, are set to launch in 2028 for server applications, marking a shift to TSMC's A16 and A17 process nodes.
