I think it's fair to say it's in the same class of hardware as a Steam Deck (which is 3 years old at this point).

The switch was weaker than the PS4, which was the same age difference at launch

Shit, I think you could actually compare it reasonably to a PS3 from 10 years before switch launch

Steam Deck's APU maxes out at 15W while a launch PS4 does 10 times that. Not a good comparison.
