You sure about that?  Unless I'm reading it wrong Soundwave is expecting at least a 6x improvement.

6x improvement would be in line with many Nintendo upgrades. 

Every one of Nintendo's systems that has been portable has had a full generation leap.

Game Boy (sub-NES graphics capability)

Game Boy Advance (SNES/Genesis range capability)

Nintendo DS (Playstation 1/N64 tier 3D system)

Nintendo 3DS (Dreamcast/PS2 tier system)

Nintendo Switch (Better than PS3/360/Wii U performance)

Nintendo Switch 2 (should be better than PS4 performance)

Don't really see what is controversial about that at all, and from actual leaks there's a pretty darn good chance we already know the chip is the Tegra T239. From everything we know about that chip, it is definitely a PS4+ tier chip which would be a 6x or more upgrade on the existing Switch. 

You maybe right, time will tell.  I'm not buying better than ps4 because of battery life issues.  I've read the Steam Deck gets like 2 hours and unless I'm mistaken the Deck isn't quite a ps4.  And now we are thinking the Switch 2 is above the ps4?  Maybe.  

I'll let it rest with my final prediction.  $400 and less powerful than the Deck is where the Switch 2 will land.
