Switch is less than half the weight and depth which is important for portability.

Battery 2-8hrs means 2 hrs for intense gaming.

Power of ARM will keep X86 handhelds down.

Switch V2 gets just 3 hours+52 mins in Crysis remastered.
Switch Lite gets 2 hours+10 mins in Haven.

No point bitching about 2 hours of intense gaming on this, that would be slightly hypocritical otherwise?

Switch V2 gets 5+ hours of BotW and 7+ hours of Smash. Crysis remastered is unoptimized garbage but it still gets nearly 4 hours on Switch V2. We are talking about 2015 X1 tech here at 16nm. Modern ARM will destroy anything X86 in power per watt at the lower end.

That thing does look really big with its large side extensions. The screen has large bezels like the non OLED Switch and 16:9 games will run with additional top&bottom borders on the 1280x800 display.

I am still happy Valve is pushing something.
