Nope.

6 months gap can't make any meaningful difference in possible specs.

Another way to look at it, whatever sony anounces whenever they announce it has been in the oven for years before that point. And we know they are both going with AMD. The only way one comes out being as much as 25% or more powerful than the other is if they wait for aother 2 or 3 years, or mke a console that cost significantly more. 

So sny going from a mtch to november lunch in the same year cant possibly mean that we get a more feature packed console. It wll be the same thing.

It's possible sony will launch a cheaper console, a 10TF GPU with 256-bit bus width memory controllers and Microsoft goes with a 384-bit bus width memory controllers with 15TF as we seeing now with ps4 pro and Xbox one X. Reason for this is to keep manufactoring costs down and safe way to play. Very similiar strategy they went with ps4 and ps4 pro. But my guess is same as yours though, they will both launch 15TF consoles in 2020 and it if this reddit dude is correct it will be 499$ launch price.

While I doubt the gap will be that big, I do think that the next xbox will be more powerful than the next PlayStation. Microsoft have been busy lately. They know they need to be more competitive and capture more marketshare before Google and Apple arrive. All the developers acquisitions have really pointed to that.

 

Resolution-gate was massive at the beginning of the generation. Even if they take a loss they're not letting Sony have the better performing console. Mark my words. They'll dig deeper into their pockets because they have too. If both Apple and Google are even somewhat successful, that'll be 5 manufacturers in the space. Someone is bound to be pushed out.
