See my post above. There are likely a few other differences other than the GPU, but they will be minor differences, the GPU is the only significant downgrade.

And I don't really expect all the other savings to amount to 200 USD.

Even more if we compare to PS5 being 399-449 then it would be 100-150 difference.

For me that seems much more money saved than they would be able on the GPU (I would expect 50-100 saving on the GPU part of the APU). And for me that is a very poor saving, putting an immense bottleneck on the design for a small saving, having 1/3 performance for a small saving.

But sure we need to wait until things are final and running, with proper price and review before being sure how effective it really will be.

If the idea is capping res at 1080p, It's not a problem. The problem, as you said, is that a weaker gpu is nowhere near enough for a $200 price difference. I would expect $100 less.
