1. If you play the switch in console mode, there are no problems with battery life.
2. Like most portable stuff these days, just use a portable charger to increase the battery life. A 20k mAh battery will last you for 15 hours.

Personally I spend a lot more time on the PS4 than the switch. But that’s just me. If you prefer Nintendo game and you mostly play on the go, a switch will be better.

Xbox one is a good mediabox but not a good gaming console.
I only use it to watch Netflix, VLC and Kodi. Interface is better than PS4 and it’s faster than most android TVs.

Build in.
Not sure if it can be easily replaceable.

During promotion like 11-11 sale. It’s possible to find an Xbox One S for about Rm700-800
Most high end TV box capable of lag free 4K is about that price too.

Can’t compare with HTPC in terms of flexibility. But the Xbox 1S is better in terms of
1. Dedicated IR Remote. Can use this to switch on the Xbox remotely.
2. Looks a lot better than most HTPC case
3. Lower power consumption (usually) and they run quieter as well (usually).
4. 4K hdr support
5. HDMI pass through
6. Optical out
7. Supports Dolby Atmos
8. 4K blu Ray player.
9. All of the above with almost no customization effort needed for a pretty low price.

If you already have an Xbox one, then there really is no point.
It’s great for those who are looking for a premium tv setup box and don’t want the hassle of a HTPC.

As a gaming console...
the Xbox one X might be worthwhile last year but not anymore with the next iteration coming up soon.
