I considered that but something worth considering is the specs of a great portable console may not be the same as a good phone.

I mean look at Xbox 360 or maybe even X1. Great for gaming, well above the typical phone game, but a piece of shit for practical stuff like browsing the web and the UI is slow/not great.

Hence, maybe core gaming devices and phones should be different things for now. I mean at some point you would be using a mediocre phone just because it plays some great games.

The XBO and PS4 don't have any issue with hardware when it comes to something like web browsing. The problem is they are not optimized, or intentionally limited by Sony and MS. Much weaker versions of the AMD APU used in XBO with less and slower RAM are much more capable than XBO at web browsing using Edge. 

Yeah, you got a point. X1 is supposedly running Windows 10 under hood but its not really apparent based on the speed of the interface.

I don't know if its intentional because MS has been boasting about the performance improvments made on the interface.
