At face value, seems like it might run similarly, but it does offer a few advantages(speaking only with the handheld mode in mind vs Steam Deck). Better memory bandwidth (120Gb/s vs 88Gb/s) Access to DLSS to punch for higher resolutions, AA solution, RT Tensor cores, etc ... Closed API will most likely run better than a PC handheld. Native ports will get the better deal than a compatibility layer the current PC handhelds have. Most likely better battery life from the get go. Points of contention center around the lesser memory storage and speed storage which is DLSS NVMe vs UFS 3.1 Mind you, this isn't official information but the shipment documents that were read couldn't be more official than this. Only to know which node the T239 and we'll mostly set as to what the Switch successor will entail. |
I think the increased performance when docked should be taken into account for the comparison since a big chunk will use it mostly or exclusively that way. It looks like the Switch was the end of Nintendo making their portable consoles weak which is a welcome change. A lot of people are gonna ecstatic with playing Nintendo games with visuals better than PS4 games if it is this powerful.
