The Switch had a solid idea but how it was executed didn't give us the full potential of how far that idea could go.
Imagine if Sony made a new portable and like the Switch, the portable is able to be connected to a Television increasing it's power and graphical fidelity. But, unlike the Switch will be capable of 4k and 60fps.
Now, imagine if the device itself is a bit different from the Switch, instead of a Tablet it is like Sony's phones, a 4k OLED 6.5-7 inch mobile device running a modified version of android, and included is a slid pad with shoulder buttons.
This doubles the value proposition, because not only did the Vita not sell but neither did Sonys phones, so like what Nintendo did with the Wii U and 3DS, Sony can create a new hybrid devices that brings together both products into one major success. It will serve as not only a game system, but a phone and productivity tool all at once. When you are playing TV mode the phone still works and you can even answer calls and view text messages as you are playing a game, this is already a thing with apps on PS5 and Xbox already, and for services like discord.
This means that Sony could also have the console available at phone carriers at a subsidized price. It also means that you won't need a separate PS5 it's all one device and it can do everything. So Sony no longer has to try and split resources or spend billions of dollars on two battle fronts when now they only need to win one.
Prices starting at $299 up to $499 based on what processor you want and how much built in memory you need. This is much better than making a traditional Vita successor that many Sony fans strangely beg Sony for. A traditional successor will require Sony to invest a lot of money on powerful device that has only one functionality, meaning in order to make money they would have to repeat what they did with the Vita, high cost games, expensive proprietary accessories and memory cards, the very things that consumers turned away from.
But if they have a Vita|mobile hybrid than they only have to allocate resources and develop for one consoles and they can have it subsidized. Sony already makes niche phones with 4K displays why not just use that technology for a hybrid all in one entertainment device?
Spec would be something like this
Mobile mode
Vision mode
Price tiers would be based on specs and memory.
These all sounds reasonable. The power will make it competitive just like the PS5 now and would have a 3 year shelf life and then you can upgrade to the XL|PLUS models which will cost the same prices while the originals will sell between $150-$200 less.
This is how the hybrid approach should be handled instead of some bad screen with a HD display and half the res and speed when undocked with a silly Tegra. This method would guarantee 200 million Playstations sold and they would only need one product.
