I agree with this.  For a 7 year old device it does well.  But it is a 7 year old device.  For me it's age is showing.  And a lot depends on how someone plays.  Low resolution on a small screen (e.g. portable) isn't a big deal at all.  A 30 inch TV, not a major deal.  It only becomes a problem on large screens.  I've played switch a lot on a 65 inch screen...  720p is awful.  

Edit

Part of the issue is the switch isn't even trading blows with the ps4, much less the ps5.  The hardware has aged, like all hardware does.  It doesn't help that TVs just keep getting bigger and bigger.  My next set might be a LG OLED 77 inch.    

You also need to put into context it's form factor and internals.

It's a mobile device first and foremost that can output to an external display... Mobile devices also have compromises to performance to hit power targets... And tend to use lower-precision rendering (FP16) to save on power costs... That doesn't always translate well to a big canvas.

As a handheld with an OLED display, the Switch is an amazing device.

Fully understand and fully agreed.  My OLED switch plays and looks great.  I hope the dock via the switch 2 makes it more of a real home console.
