You don't get to read many completely one-sided and hugely biased comments like yours on this site. Frankly you are utterly clueless. Each time you answer with some ridiculous belief that the Switch will perform well above its specification. You need to step back and try to get a grip on reality, Nintendo isn't your friend its a commercial business its doesn't need such ridiculous loyalty and bias.  

Oh giggity. Personal attacks. Here is an idea, have an intellectual discussion first (If you can), leave the drama at the gate.

I constantly ridicule Nintendo's anemic hardware, I also haven't owned a Nintendo device in years, so there is certainly zero loyalty or bias, if anything I am more Xbox Leaning with a primary preference for the PC. Master Race and all that.
I also will not be buying the Switch because it is underpowered, overpriced and I dislike the form factor.

And when I am comparing the Switch, I am comparing it to Graphics Core Next 1.0 and AMD's older Very-Long-Instruction-Word based architectures, it's common knowledge nVidia's Maxwell and Pascal beats AMD around in efficiency. - That difference in efficiency is almost embarassing when compared to older Architectures like what is found in the Wii U (Which is VLIW).

Even before the performance downgrades, the Switch was between the Wii U and Xbox One in terms of performance, with the downclocks, it's still in between the Wii U and Xbox One, it's just a little closer to the Wii U, this is something I have stated multiple times. - If that is being "Loyal" and that I need to "Get a grip on reality". - Then I simply don't care about your opinion.

Yeah, it might seem bonkers but while RAM is fairly important it isn't as expensive or limited these days for mobile devices as it used to be, most flagships these days have 4 or 6 GB of RAM, and the new Zenfone will have 8 and budget phones from China will follow in a period of a few months. Though you will find that RAM isn't a good measure for performance, these cheap phones have noticeably weaker processors and GPUs which is more important than RAM by quite a bit.

Yup, love SpawnWave, glad he embraced the Foxconn leak.

The fantastic thing with having a ton of Ram is that, Android will unload things less often, so when you switch browser tabs, the device doesn't need to load the entire tab again, it's instant.
Or if you are switching apps, it doesn't need to relaunch the app.

RAM features zero processing capabilities however, so will not typically "speed" things up, rather just prevent them from halting to a crawl as things are sourced from slower storage devices.
