Another issue is that it would be a strange move for Nintendo’s next iteration to feature no power enhancements over the first model. With Nintendo handhelds, each new iteration featured improved chipsets over the older models. DS Lite was more powerful than DS, and DSi was more powerful than DS Lite, 3DS was more powerful than DSi, and new3DS was more powerful than 3DS.

No, DS Lite wasn't more powerful. It reduced the weight and size of the first DS model, had a better screen-to-body ratio (smaller bezels) and enhanced battery life.

Exactly the things they should do with a Switch lite.

 

The 3DS XL also wasn't more powerful than the 3DS. Again it enhanced the battery life and had a better screen-to-body ratio (smaller bezels).
