Do not expect PS5 performance from a Switch 2. It is not close to that. PS4 Pro is much closer to accurate. It’s cheaper than a PS5 because it’s weaker.

That’s not what I’ve heard, people on Reddit have been praising its performance saying it’s close to PS5 performance; but even then, a PS4 Pro level performance for a handheld is pretty good in my books.

I have some questions for whoever's claiming that.
The first party games are fantastic, portability is useful, and it's affordable compared to everything else. But I think anyone expecting power is setting themselves up for disappointment. Buy it if you wanna play first party games and low-spec indies, but be careful with ports. I always have to research ports I'm interested in to double check if they're okay.

There are more objective measurements we can use than that. Consider any modern port that shows up on a Switch 2, like FF7 Rebirth, to be a substantial effort and not a given. Even when you do get ports like those, they’re often severely compromised in fidelity and performance.
