A 2050 will run basically anything a PS5 will, it's like saying a XBox Series S is not the same class of hardware as a Series X. A 2050 is about half a PS5 in raw performance but has DLSS on top of that which means it doesn't have to run games at the same resolution to get a similar looking image. 

You guys are ridiculous if you're complaining about that level of hardware in a portable device, lol, that is like the nerdiest fringe of a fringe ("boo hoo! I can't play a game with no anistropic filtering!"). 

Jeezus, how did you live before 2015, lol. It reminds me of a time I was at the Apple store about a year ago and listening to a parent who had a 12 year old having a melt down saying they couldn't live their life if they were forced to use an iPhone 12, lol. Like if that was my kid they'd be getting a swift smack upside the head for being a dumb ass and reminded that even an iPhone 12 is a luxury. 

Portables being able to run modern console games at all is a freaking miracle, that wasn't a normal thing until like a few years ago, a RTX 2050-range portable machine is freaking incredible. In the hands of any developer that really wants to give half an effort, that can run basically any modern gen game like Alan Wake II at a reasonable fidelity that is very playable.

Lol, I'm not bothering with you.  You think a 50 and 70 are the same class of hardware, lmfao.  That says everything there is to say.  

Hardware is defined by the software it runs, they both run the same games and it's not like one of them is running like a PS2 looking version of the game at 10 fps. 

For practical purposes for a normal person that is the same class of hardware. Normal people are not fucking nerds who pixel count and look for anistropic filtering, dorks do that yes, I don't deny that, but that is a tiny, tiny portion of the general market. It's so small why are we even bothering spending so much time debating what they care about in relation to a Switch 2, like who cares. 

2050 performance in a portable, if that's what the Switch 2 would be incredible. Anyone complaining about that is out to lunch. A 2050 range portable machine is effectively a portable modern-gen console on the go.
