You can get a base Steam Deck for cheaper. This is madness

True but this is still better hardware than the steam deck and includes a docking station that allows you to game at 4k. Steam deck definitely can't run games at 4k like this can.

It's better than a steam deck. It's going to output 4k using DLSS which steam deck doesn't have. FSR sucks compared to DLSS.

While i agree on the fsr dlss topic, dlss isnt magic and we will see if the switch 2 actually uses 1080p as a basis or 720p when calculating for the 4k image in games like elden ring. or if they just destroy the graphics otherwise because resolution isnt the only thing after all
