It also seems to have what seems to be Samsung's favorite new Qualcomm SoC for the mid-range market.

According to new reports, the so-called Nintendo Switch 2 could prove more powerful in docked mode than previous rumours suggested. Unsurprisingly, the next-generation console will be unable to maintain its docked performance in handheld mode, though.

An Intel Lunar Lake Core Ultra 200V APU inside an HP Spectre x360 convertible laptop has been benchmarked at the SiSoftware Sandra database.
