It's also basically the same console with minor upgrades.
Well no, we are going from first to like... seventh gen Tegra, which comes with a whole slew of additional hardware support. They are likely going to be hitting 120fps using DLSS, which is both neat and really sad, plus the higher performance video encode/decode for their ~~Discord~~GroupChat implementation.
HDR and 1080p on the device's screen itself are big improvements. A lot of people will bellyache about no OLED but LCD tech in general has gotten pretty good and will last 30+ years instead of 10-at-best.
Most of the external hardware changes seem superficial, but things like the dual USB C and the larger joysticks (which hopefully means they won't drift) should be noticeable quality of life enhancements.
