I think Rembrandt will be lauchned on the AM5 platform sooner.
3 points:
1. Zen 4 (Raphael) is expected to be launched Q4 2022. Usually, AMD releases its APU version (Phoenix G) 2-3 quarters later. So, Rembrandt G should be launched prior to Raphael, to have a decent life time. I bet Q2 2022 (thanks to point 2).
2. Some rumors predict AM5 motherboards will be released Q2 2022. Which CPU will we be able to buy with this MB? Raphael? Not available. Rembrandt G? I think that.
Expected launch dates of next-generation AMD Ryzen AM5 and Intel Z690 Alder Lake / Z790 Raptor Lake platforms have leaked out.

3. A leaked document reveals that the AM5 platform will begin its career with 3 processor types: models 40h, models 60h and models 70h
The first desktop processors to implement AMD's "Zen 4" microarchitecture will feature integrated graphics as standard across the lineup, according to a Chips and Cheese report citing leaked AMD design documents. Currently, most of the Socket AM4 desktop processor lineup lacks integrated...

- Models 40h have 20 pcie lines and a USB 4 controller.
Rembrandt is known for having 20 PCIe 4.0 lines and an integreted USB 4 controller.
First leaks on AMD’s next-generation APUs. AMD Rembrandt; 6nm Zen3 cores? Further speculation on AMD’s next-generation APUs codenamed Rembrand has emerged yesterday, after @patrickschur_ provided a new update to his previous leaks. AMD Rembrand is a codename for next-generation APU, planned for...

So Type 1 / 40h is Rembrandt G (~Q2 2022).
- Models 60h have 28 pcies lines but no USB 4 port.
Raphael is known for having 28 PCIe 4.0 lines and an other leaked document reveals that 4 of them can be connected to an external USB 4 controler, deported on the motherboard (so, not integrated to the processor).
New era for AMD CPUs

AMD might fall behind Intel on PCI-Express Gen 5 support, say sources familiar with the recent GIGABYTE ransomware attack and ensuing leak of confidential documents. If you recall, AMD had extensively marketed the fact that it was first-to-market with PCI-Express Gen 4, over a year ahead of...

So, Type 2 / 60h is Raphael (~Q4 2022)
- Models 70h again have 20 pcie lines and USB 4 ports. This is typically an other G APU.
So, Type 3 / 70h should be Phoenix (~H1 2023)
I bet Q1 2022: 6000U/H mobile versions, Q2 2022: 6000G Pro/OEM versions, Q3 2022: 6000G retail versions (like Cezanne 2021 roadmap).
The next refresh Zen 3D will be named 6000X, Raphael: 7000X and Phoenix 7000U/H/G.
Raphael will have an integreted Graphic Processor, but it will not confront Rembrandt G/Phoenix G, because its iGP will be very tiny.
Here we know that Raphael's iGP will be integreted to the IODie and looks small (while the size on the picture is not representative of the reality). So it will not be a dedicated RDNA chiplet.
In a new video published by Gamers Nexus, slides regarding AMD's Zen 4 powered Ryzen 'Raphael' and the AM5 platform have leaked out.

And here, we know that AMD is working on a very small RDNA 1 iGP (without RT).

I bet this is what we will find on 7000X Zen 4 Raphael. Enough for home office, web and movies. For gaming / 3D? Buy a G APU or a discret GPU.
(Of course, this is only my personal feeling/analysis. May be wrong!)
