Customer Ratings & Reviews

Super light weight. Battery lasts alot more longer then your original switch. More of a personal use instead of trying to share it on the big screen.

One of the best purchases I've made this year. My daughter loves it! It's super lightweight and portable. I would recommend getting a case for it as well.

My brother has a regular Switch and I have always wanted to get one, but I didn’t want to spend so much money on a system for my TV when I already have a PS4. When I heard Animal Crossing New Horizons was coming, I started researching the Switch to find one I would like. When I stumbled upon the Lite, I wasn’t sure if I would like it, but I actually prefer it over the regular Switch. I like that I don’t have to worry about the controllers or having an extra port I have to keep to charge it and the controllers. And the nostalgia I get from having the Lite is insane. It’s like playing an oversized Gameboy Advanced and I love it. I also found that most games are easier to play on the Lite because you don’t have two separate controllers with drift or any of the unnecessary hard motor skills movements you have to do with them, and personally I like playing games solo. The Lite was definitely the best choice for me. I only have Skyrim and Animal Crossing and I’ve put over 200+ hours into them combined. I would recommend the Lite to anyone who wants to save some money and doesn’t mind only playing handheld. That’s really the only difference.

Perfect for my daughter. She got it for her birthday and was super excited. She loves it. Great for 5year olds and up.

I love the new color and the new size i love the great deal getting two Nintendo for my kids

I purchased so that my turning 7 yr old could play games! He absolutely loved it and was able to figure out how to use within 30 minutes of opening. We have really been enjoying the clear screen and how the graphics look vs. his phone! Pick up from store was helpful as i could run in after work and grab!

Its really fun to use and easy to take to places because its small and could play everywhere

Got it for my wife for mothers day. She loves it! Very light weight and good on the go. The color is also amazing. My wife plays the new Animal Crossing with it everyday.

Battery lasts, strong durability Good quality material

i never write reviews but seriously this console is so amazing and affordable. i was debating for so long if i should get this one or the reg switch but i’m so glad i got the lite. it’s everything you want and more! the size and everything is just perfect and it came sooner than expected. i take it with me everywhere. just WOW!!!

Our daughter has a ton of fun playing all sorts of games. The parental controls are super easy to manage. Great console for beginners.

GREAT GAME! MY CHILD LOVES IT! STRONGLY RECOMMEND!!

This gift was one of the best and most important gifts I ever purchased. My autistic little sister has been asking us for this switch for about 2-3 years and because of Best Buy and their affiliation with Progressive leasing I was able to purchase it for Xmas. Thank you.

It’s still fairly portable, the cartridges are very small so they can easily fall in a crack. You will need to buy a SD card as it doesn’t come with one.

My daughter received for her birthday and she loves it

Best investment my son loves it ! And has a variety of games to choose from , a must purchase .

I really enjoy the full version of the Switch when displayed on the TV. I won't bother discussing the games and the FPS values on a 4K screen; those reviews can be found elsewhere. Instead, I want to discuss how the Switch Lite addresses one issue I have had with the Switch, which is taking it out of the dock and playing with the built-in screen. First, when undocked, the Switch feels a little wobbly. The Joy-Cons lock into place, but there is a sense of instability that bothers me. Second, the Switch and Joy-Cons together are heavy. In my opinion, too heavy even to be able to wear out a battery charge before wearing out my hands. Finally, the sticks on all Joy-Cons are just weird. They are so short that I find I have to adjust the sensitivity up quite a bit to feel like I am capable of playing anything. If I do not, I push on the sticks so hard that I wear out my fingers quickly. The Switch Lite, on the other hand, addresses two of the three concerns. First, the whole unit feels very solid. It feels nice in the hand and has a consistency that works. The instability of the Switch is gone. Second, the Switch Lite is really light! Compared to the Switch, the Lite is like holding air. I can play this for a couple of hours and forget about it. I've enjoyed that quite a bit. The joysticks, however...are still the same, and I don't care for them as much as I could. I can get used to them, as I have, but it is jarring and takes me out of games sometimes. The Lite can support external controllers like the Pro (which is great, by the way), so I may use that, but it does seem to make the fact that the Lite is a portable console a bit irrelevant. I was curious about how the smaller screen on the Switch Lite would affect gameplay vs. the Switch, but I haven't really noticed a difference. Looking between the two, the difference is very noticeable, but in use, I haven't felt like I'm missing anything. In summary, I am very pleased with the Switch Lite. At this point, there are now three in the house, which should be an endorsement. The feeling of stability is welcome along with a lighter form factor. The joysticks are my only issue, and I didn't actually expect that they would change, so I was not disappointed in that regard. I recommend the Switch Lite for sure!

Excellent product ! Bought for our 4 year old granddaughter

Lots of fun, easy to use, cute, long battery life.

The switch lite is perfect for me, as I don’t have time to really sit in front of the TV to play games! I also love this coral color. Super happy with this purchase!
