It would be amazing...if it was 512 GFLOPS in handheld mode.

These specs are nothing new, it's more or less standard Tegra X1 spec sheet, with one key thing missing - GPU clock speeds, both in docked and portable mode.

But, since EG was pretty spot on about Switch, their sources are putting those at 768MHz and 307.2MHz, which translates to 393GFLOPS (docked) and 157GFLOPS (portable). Not really amazing, there are tablets with better specs (and much higher price), but still pretty good.

This.

People forget the 512 Gflops is only when its docked and has all the power it wants/needs and its fan running.

When its portable only its like 150 Gflops.

Which is 3 times the power of the PS Vita.

Still good though, but much less impressive.

According to the rumor it would be 153 gflops, yes. But this extremelly popular tech youtube channel that actually had their hands on with the Switch claims that they were told by Nintendo themselves that nothing changes when the Switch is undocked.

Also, you are comparing Nvidias current 2nd most efficient architecture against a 5 year old PowerVR architecture. Even at the same gflops count the Switch is killing it.
