why do u think that? there are many portable devices which are powerful than switch and that too at higher resolutions, e.g Apple's A11 bionic SoC. Not to mention the upcoming AMD Raven Ridge ryzen 5 and 7 APU's which are capable of producing better performance than tegra x1 at just15 watts. Switch maxes out at 18w in docked mode and 10w to 15w watt in handheld mode. So with 10nm Fab process and customizing the apu i m pretty sure sony can extract around 1.5tf of performance at just tdp of 15w.

So we have the technology, but i think its far more likely that Sony and MS have already placed their order of these chips and are customizing for PS5 and X2. 

I didn't say there weren't devices more powerful than the Switch, in-fact there's another Tegra chip (the X2) that's almost twice as fast. I was saying the technology you were describing (cheap PS4 fidelity graphics in a handheld) doesn't exist yet. The Switch is $300 and is only slightly above a WiiU in handheld mode. It's going to be a few years before all the pieces needed for a PS4 equivalent are available and affordable

honestly I find a little odd that you think that todays tech specially upcoming mobile tech cant out perform a 5 year old laptop APU and that too a crappy one, when AMD just showed that their latest APU can deliver 200x more performance then their last gen high end APU with a TDP of switch, now increase those tdp even further too 35w those same ryzen apu's are out performing a 91watt 5th Gen i5 processor.. also look at that gamecompany's new game SKY it looks as good as journey on PS4. 

If you are still not convinced here is another scenario, even if we take the latest techs of PSvita hardware, Like a PowerVR GT7900 mobile gpu, this gpu alone produces 1tf of performance now combine that with a custom design and 4 cortex A75 processor cores and a custom API, we have well over 1.5 teraflops of performance far better than xbox one.
