Core for core, the m3 7y30 is closer to the i7 3770.
And it's absolutely murders the Cortex A57.
With Starlink and Panic Button's ports, how do people feel about Switch's capabilities now?

Right, but when we are talking about resolution, we are mainly talking about GPU (and bandwidth to an extent). Switch's CPU is at least 2x as weak as xbone, which does affect the framerate. Also having less memory will affect textures and loading as well.
so xbone base is 2-3x stronger in GPU (leaning closer to the lower end if unreal engine 4 and mixed precision mode are taken advantage of), at least 2x in CPU, 3GB RAM more available for games, and much more bandwidth. For games that really make heavy use of CPU, RAM, and Bandwidth, the performance gap will widen between switch and Xbone/PS4.
It doesnt hold its own and it never will. Its a necessary weakness because its portable.
Sure Starlink looks good, but it aint comparable to the PS4's or Xbox One's highs.

I can only judge what has been shown and released so far.
The OP is asking how I feel about the Switch capabilities currently and I stand by that.
uh? no
its 3,25 vs 5
also games for xbox one have access to only 6 cpu cores and 90% of the gpu processing power.
Ok, so I was about GB off in ram.
Switch only has access to half it's cpu as well and is severely throttled downclocked due to thermal issues. At the very least, xbone cpu twice as powerful as switch's overall.
Not sure where the claim about xbone only using 90% of it's processing power comes from.
Edit: ok so you got this from Kotaku?

What's the reason behind 90%, and do we know if other consoles have a gpu constraint?

We're talking overall real performance in game scenarios. And despite a clear landslide CPU spec advantage, Win2 still runs some games (like Dark Souls) less consistently than even an undocked Switch and PS4 absolutely annihilates it. I feel like this is going in circles but in terms of what Win2 and Switch can do, they do come closer to each other than PS4.
Haven't played Wolfenstein 2 yet but how do the graphics compare to the first?
How well did wolf1 perform and look on the ps3?
Comparible with wolf2 on switch?
Genuinely curious

For what switch is asked to do it has outperformed what the majority said would be possible for it. 2019 will determine a lot.

Switch is impressive because it's able to balance the right mix of performance, efficiency, and ease of development for its size and premise. Say what you will about it compared to the PS4, it's an incredibly well engineered device that's a lot more capable the some people may expect at first.
And yeah, your phone is more powerful, but it's also likely more expensive and has to deal with the massive overhead of its OS, so that's not a fair comparison.
Phone has a smaller area for dissipation and no active cooling, it can't sustain shit compared to Switch.
