As mentioned before 9th vs 8th gen, less than 66% more expensive and still X1X put more than 4x better...

 

And as always Switch defenders sway between console and handheld depending on the convenience.

That is exactly why it is called an 'Hybrid'. Try stashing the Xbox one X in your back pack for a couple of weeks but make sure you arrange an Hospital visit in advance.

So it being a hybrid should hold the benefits of console and handheld but on the downside just be negated because you can choose what you want to call?

The current generations of consoles are quite weird and blur the line of what constitutes a console generation. The Xbox One X is not only a newer console than the Switch, it is a lot more powerful than the base Xbox One. 

The Switch is an impressive piece of tech because it functions as both a home console and handheld. Considering that the majority of consumers have yet to pick up a 4K TV, the average consumer does not care about the Xbox One X's power due to its 4K capabilities being redundant on a 1080p screen.

They don't really blur the line. All games playable on X1 is on X1X and vice-versa, they are still same gen but with different quality. Not much different than on previous gen with different machines running same game on different capability.

Switch is a NVidia Shield, so?
