    So much better than the first switch! This one runs so smooth and feels and looks great. Me and the wife play on it all the time handheld mode and we love the bulit in mic when playing with friends. Tv mode is amazing but we mostly bought it for handheld mode. I would buy more if i had the money lol

    Graphics are great, processor, and over all operating system is worth it. Not sure how much of an upgrade it is from the original switch, but it’s worth the upgrade from switch lite. Wish the battery lasted longer, but overall it charges quickly so time between restoring power while playing is minimum. Especially since it can be played while charging.

    A better nintendo handheld console

    The new nintendo switch 2 provides a bigger screen and controllers with more immersive gameplay, at the expense of handheld batter life (about 1 hour). Well worth it for both docked and handheld, understanding that external batteries are common.

    This is AMAZING puece of tech for you and the whole family. It may not be an OLED but I've honestly not seen a major difference in display. The graphics and smoother gameplay is next level. Especially when playing it on the television. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is because the battery isn't the best. You have to carry a charger or be at home if you plan to play it for over 3hrs. Other than that I'd recommend this to anyone.

    Great little console, perfect for the kids! Plenty of power very noticeable compared to load time on previous console. Beautiful screen and fidelity! Will get another one soon! The controller is my only gripe a little awkward for my large hands, but seems great for the kids.

    I’ve personally really been enjoying my time with Switch 2, the size and quality of the entire console compared to the original Nintendo Switch is amazing as somebody who never got an Oled I really don't mind the fact that it's back to an LCD

    The Switch 2 is an amazing upgrade from the Switch 1. It is fast, better graphics. It doesnt have the best battery if it isnt being charged. So if you travel a lot get a external battery for it.

    I’m really enjoying the Nintendo Switch 2 so far, it's a noticeable step up from the original Switch in all the right ways. The improved graphics make games look sharper and more vibrant, and the faster processing speed makes everything feel smoother, from loading times to gameplay performance. It still has that classic Switch versatility, but with a much more modern, responsive feel. Overall, I think the Switch 2 is a great purchase and definitely worth upgrading to if you loved the first one or just want a fun, powerful handheld console.

    I like the new size for the Switch and the magnetic Joy Cons. Much easier and user friendly than needing to slide them on and off. The bundle is the way to go if you are a Mario Kart fan. You are saving $30 off the regular price of the game. The graphics are good, but I don't notice much of a difference. Sound is better as well.

    Family Game Nights Just Got Better!!

    The Nintendo Switch OLED is everything I hoped for and more! The upgraded OLED screen is absolutely stunning, the colors are brighter, the blacks are deeper, and every game feels more alive. Playing titles like Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Mario Kart looks breathtaking compared to the original model. The enhanced audio is another pleasant surprise. Whether docked or in handheld mode, the sound is clearer and more immersive, making long gaming sessions even better. The wider kickstand is a game-changer too, it feels sturdy and makes tabletop gaming with family so much easier. Battery life is solid, setup is seamless, and the portability makes it perfect for both at-home play and gaming on the go. It truly feels like Nintendo perfected an already amazing console. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade, this is the version you want. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Really nice upgrade over the original Switch. I know some people are calling this a Switch Pro instead of a Switch 2, but so what? That's totally what I wanted from a second generation device. This is sleek, everything is well thought out, and my original Switch games still work on it. Solid upgrade and 120fps HDR looks really nice.

    Great console. Poor ergonomics

    The switch 2 is Nintendo’s most iterative console in decades; but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The original switch was nearly a perfect console and the switch 2 improves on its predecessor in nearly every metric focusing specifically on performance. It has dramatically increased ram, storage and a much more powerful gpu. Excited to see what 1st party Nintendo devs can do with this new hardware. The console also feels more premium in hand with a a better build quality and screen is also brighter. My only complaints are the lack of an oled screen, middling battery life and frankly terrible ergonomics in handheld mode

    I’ve had this Switch 2 for a month now and it has been so much fun to go back to gaming basics. Pokemon ZA Legends is so much fun and smooth on the Switch 2. I wish I would have bought it sooner. The only bad thing about it is that the battery lasts 2-3 hours on a full charge.

    Everything is faster and feels better than my original nintendo switch I got 8 years ago! Glad to have the increased performance and backwards compatibility. Thank you Nintendo. Mario Kart is a generational game. You'll be glad to have as a download so you can play it anytime (as well as saving yourself $30 from the $80 retail version).

    Got this for my son for the holidays. Love the bigger screen and magnetic controllers. Switch 1 controllers worked with this, so that was a relief. A bit of a heavy price tag compared to the first Switch.

    Nintendo Switch 2 trumps all other game systems.

    Love the Nintendo Switch 2, despite there being only one Nintendo game at launch they delivered in being able to play switch 1 games, like both Zelda’s and free updates to others to make them more standard for 2025. When I heard about the Switch 2, all I really cared about is that it was just a better switch, so those games that didn’t run well on the original switch can now hit their frame caps. Another thing about the Switch 2 I wanna mention is that it has this new mouse mode for games that play better with a mouse, Which was really cool and puts it over Playstation and Xbox in my eyes. The Joycons themselves are okay, definitely better than the old ones for the Switch 1, the sticks are a bit too sensitive. The GameChat and built in Microphone into the Switch 2 works really well and sounds great, it filters out background noises and you can even talk from super far away and your pals will be able to hear you great. Mario Kart World is a great switch 2 game and excites me for the new ones to come, a perfect example of a great nintendo game. The Nintendo Switch 2 is a great package especially if you get Mario Kart World with it, definitely worth it.

    I got the Nintendo Switch 2 for my boyfriend, and honestly we’ve both been having so much fun with it. The graphics look super clean, and the games load fast, which is really nice. The screen is brighter and the battery lasts way longer than the old one. The controllers feel better too, not cheap or flimsy. Overall, totally worth it and now it’s kinda our thing to play together.
