Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great upgrade over my original switch. I really like the larger screen and improved graphics.

Look forward to more games arriving. I wish the game keys did not have to be carried around to play the games once they are added to the device. Would prefer Nintendo offer the full game on physical media as long as one has to carry around a game. That said, the conclusive is great with an excellent screen and the ability to switch between handheld and docked TV mode.

Overall, great console. A great improvement from the original. Bigger screen, better graphics. Cant recommend this enough

The. Ew Switch 2 is amazing. The new magnetic controllers with built in “mouse” technology is really cool. Can’t see what other game they will bring out that uses this feature! I really like the new screen and faster processor. The upgrade is well worth it!

Definitely a lot sturdier than the original switch love the new click in controllers and the ease of being able to play anywhere

Love this new system! The bigger screen and new controller design is perfect!

Its a good handheld n very fun to play n overall amazing

Got the Switch 2 at Best Buy and love it. Smooth pickup, helpful staff, and the console is a big upgrade—faster, brighter, and perfect for gaming on the go. Highly recommend!

Honestly way better than the first Switch, I play Animal Crossing New Horizons and I can definitely tell the difference in gameplay. The charger is super good, its a type c with it’s own cube (like a phone charger) and I sometimes use it to charge my phone as well because it charges SO fast. (Seriously.) It’s definitely an upgrade with the bigger screen and stand, and I’d say its worth it.

Love the large screen size. Graphics are great especially with older games. It also runs much smoother overall.

Glad to finally get the new switch! I know that there are mixed reviews on this but I love it! A bit heavier than the previous model but it does have a bigger screen and better graphics. Worth every penny.

Stunning graphics, seamless hybrid play & improved Joy-Cons. Battery life rocks, loads fast. Ultimate upgrade for any gamer! Love it!

Excellent and versatile console for traveling. The graphics are exceptional and the games are addictive.

Larger screen, better connective joycons, intuitive setup. 10/10 recommend this as an upgrade from V1 or as your first Swtich. The dock design improved greatly, with more airflow, additional usb outlets for more connection options. The charger is more compact so you don't lose both outlets when plugged in either!

It's awesome! I love it! My son loves it! Love the big screen! Everything about it is great!

Solid upgrade if you have the setup to support it , ex(4Ktv , fast internet) , loads of fun with how fast everything loads and looks crisp at 60 fps , makes me go back and play my whole library

It took me about a month and a half since release to finally get one, and despite the criticism, negative reviews that have nothing to do with the quality of the product, or the general skeptics out there, this is the best handheld gaming system hands down! Yes, not having an OLED display is a bit of a downer, but the advantages far exceeds the one shortcoming. For instance, HDR support, 4K resolution with up to 120hz refresh rate, and backwards compatibility (with a couple of rare exceptions). Mario Kart World is incredible! Even original Switch games see a marked improvement in performance. Legend of Zelda:Tears of the Kingdom with sharper visuals and 60 FPS? Yes, please! Even New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe has improved performance. If you’re hesitant about buying it because of the price, I understand. If you’re the occasional gamer who is only looking to pass the time on a layover, skip it. Just use your phone. For everyone else, what are you waiting for? There’s two – no, one still in stock at your local Best Buy! But I’d hurry. This one older lady is circling around it like a vulture. Never mind, it’s still there! So what are you waiting for? Get yourself a Switch 2. Like, now.

Im going to be completely honest; I trash talked this console for so long but soon realized it was an actual great console with decent upgrades from the switch 1. For awhile i wanted the OLED as well but held off cause I heard about the Switch 2. Im really glad i made the purchase! Animal crossing runs SO well, no lag and no weird stuttering (my island is packed with items:[ ). Pokemon Z-A looks and feels 10x better, Pokopia is an actual amazing game that runs so smoothly. The only problem i will say is the battery life kinda sucks :/ Even while docked or plugged in, it takes so long to get to a full charge; playing a game or not. I do feel like you'll get decent playtime on less intensive games. The stand is very much improved! Still hate how the SD card area is exposed but i think its just a personal take that it should be covered. The mouse controls on the joy cons are cool! Very useful for certain games but not sure if all have that feature implemented? Still cool! It is a bigger handheld compared to the S1, but the build quality is just *chefs kiss*. It feels more durable and sleek, the joycons dont creak or have any slight movement when you play which i appreciate, could just be cause the S1 is getting old but still wanted to note. Besides the only complaint i have being about the battery life; just bring a powerbank or a charger with you at all times! I got a carrying case to fit it all and its pretty nice to take wkth me to work, on the go, etc...

I had a Switch Lite for many years and decided to finally upgrade. I am very glad I made the choice. The screen on the Lite is very small, plus the screen on the Switch 2 is large, clear, and touch screen. It's great to play games on for that reason, plus, the functionality of using it on a TV is great, too.

The Switch 2 keeps everything I loved about the original but improves where it counts — faster loading, sharper visuals, and better battery life. Games run smoother, and the slightly bigger screen looks amazing. Still super portable and great for couch or travel gaming. If you liked the first Switch, this feels like a polished evolution, not a complete overhaul — and that’s a good thing.
