Customers often highlight the product's excellent overall performance, appreciating its features and how much better it functions. The upgraded screen size, portability, and appealing design are also frequently praised, along with its unique and interesting gameplay. However, a significant concern for many customers is the battery life. Additionally, the storage capacity is often cited as a downside, and some users note its heavier weight.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Terrible screen quality. It is soooo easy to scratch. Make sure you put a screen protector on as soon as you open the box.

    They were the upgrade to the Nintendo switch, which was on its eighth year now! Games look very good and load very fast! Two games particularly look phenomenal! Storage needs to be upgraded beyond expensive and low size microSD express cards. There are loads of options, including small, and BME drives that could’ve fit the bill. If you gain a lot of Nintendo switch, this is the perfect upgrade for you! That stated, I would wait until there are games that you truly want to play. Right now, only Mario kart is a true switch 2 exclusive. Everything else is either an important or updated version of a previous switch one came. The switch 2 does make certain switch one games work better including frame rates and image quality but I’m not sure if this is alone worth an upgrade.
