Customer Ratings & Reviews

I tried so long to get my hands on this thing! The bots and scalpers held me back for too long. But after finally getting my hands on one, i can definitely say it is worth the wait and all the hype. The screen looks awesome, and the 4K 60fps and 120fps look amazing on TV mode. Already got a travel case and screen protector so im ready to take it with me everywhere lol plus all my older games run smooth as butter now. No more frame drops or lag :)

The screen size, resolution, and frame rate finally makes games playable. Wouldn't imagine playing TOTK or Legends ZA on the original switch. Told my friend to get one, so he can play ZA and actually enjoy it.

I’m a Nintendo fan and I’ve haven’t been excited for a new console in so long! The Switch 2 runs really smooth and fast compared to the original Switch. There are a lot of benefits of getting it. You get better performing original Switch games, next gen Switch 2 games which is a significant improvement for Nintendo. Youcan run some games at 120fps for the first time on a Nintendo console! And best of all, there is finally a GameCube Classics library! Here’s hoping for Super Smash Bros. Melee!

I cannot say enough good things about this console. Gaming is unquestionably my biggest pastime, I have the most premium version available of all current major consoles as well as a high-end gaming PC, I’m only throwing that out there so that readers have an idea of my familiarity and experience level on this subject. If I were asked to recommend a gaming platform to someone and was given no information about the person, this is the product I would recommend because it offers so much variety, adaptability, and exclusive features, it’s an experience that cannot be replicated. Nintendo listened to their fans and made a beloved console even better. Out of the dock, the screen is large and looks amazing. I love the new kickstand but it’s also comfortable in the hands despite its impressive size. While it’s docked, you get even better performance. Several Switch titles will receive or have already received Switch 2 upgrades, many of these are free and the one’s that aren’t are very reasonably priced. I think it goes without saying (but I’ll throw it out there anyway) that there are several great titles you can only play on a Nintendo console. I work 12-hour shifts and love having a system that I’m able to bring with me to play on breaks. Having 256 gigs of storage is also nice but if you’re like me and prefer to have lots of games readily available, its very easy to add more space using a microSD Express card. I also love that they included an ethernet port on the dock this time. As someone who knows a bit about costs regarding hardware components, the product that Nintendo is able to offer at this price is an incredible value. My whole reason for giving this review is simply to offer perspective from someone who has spent a lot of time with the current generation of consoles and PC gaming. If the games on this console are ones you think you’d enjoy, I highly recommend the Switch 2.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a solid upgrade that improves on nearly every aspect of the original. It features a sharper 7.9” 1080p screen, 4K output when docked, smoother performance thanks to a new NVIDIA chip, and better battery life. The new magnetic Joy-Cons feel sturdier, and added features like GameShare and video chat bring it up to modern standards. While it’s pricier and leans on upgraded older games at launch, the Switch 2 is a powerful and versatile hybrid console

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a remarkable leap forward from its predecessor, setting a new benchmark for hybrid gaming consoles. One of the most noticeable upgrades is the overall system functionality. From boot-up to gameplay, the interface operates with impressive smoothness and responsiveness. Menus load faster, transitions are seamless, and games benefit from significantly reduced load times, creating a more fluid and immersive user experience. The Switch 2 feels far more optimized and modern than the original Nintendo Switch. Another standout feature is the stunning new display. The larger screen size enhances visibility and transforms how games are experienced on the go. Colors are richer, and the higher resolution makes visuals pop with greater clarity and detail. This isn’t just an incremental update — the bigger screen makes the Switch 2 feel like an entirely new console, elevating handheld gaming to a premium level. The redesigned Joy-Cons are also worth praising. Ergonomically improved, they offer a more comfortable grip and enhanced button responsiveness. Whether playing solo or sharing with a friend, the Joy-Cons feel more intuitive and reliable. Nintendo has listened to user feedback and refined the design to deliver a more satisfying gameplay experience. Overall, the Nintendo Switch 2 is a significant success. With smoother performance, a significantly enhanced display, and much-improved Joy-Cons, it’s a must-have upgrade for longtime fans and new players.

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.

It's a very good device; the games run smoothly, it doesn't overheat, and it's comfortable to hold. The only drawback, in my opinion, is that the battery doesn't last as long as I'd like, but it performs well overall.

he Nintendo Switch 2 redefines hybrid gaming with upgraded graphics, faster performance, and a stunning OLED screen. Backward compatibility preserves your game library, while upcoming exclusives promise unforgettable adventures. Whether docked or handheld, it delivers smooth, immersive gameplay. It’s the perfect evolution of Nintendo’s innovation, accessibility, and beloved franchises.

With the threat of RAM spiking and the price of electronics likely to skyrocket, I bit the bullet and bought the Nintendo Switch 2. I was trying to avoid purchasing in protest of the price point, but... I'm beyond happy with the Switch 2. I paid nearly $700 for a Steam Deck, which is a similar console, and the Switch 2 is a marvelous step out from both the Deck and the Switch 1 OLED. The library is limited, which is the biggest drawback, but I'm absolutely sure that I'll get many, many hours out of this in the future. It's larger than the Switch 1 and Switch 1 OLED, fitting more comfortably in adult hands. The connection between the joycon and system is MUCH improved, as is the dual charging port. The screen is crisp, giving a great picture and refresh rate, and it pumps out 4K video while docked no problem. The speakers aren't particularly robust, but connect wired (!) or wireless headphones and you're golden. Once this console gets a few more titles, I think it'll be up there with the all time greats. It's everything the Switch 1 should've been, and-- as much as I'm loathe to admit it-- the price-point reflects it. My only complaint is that the battery life isn't fantastic-- I get about ~2.5 hours of playtime on a single charge while running modern software. It'd be nice if it was more like 4-5. Also, the new system requires a different kind of SD card. Be mindful when you purchase if you want extra storage! You can't use your Switch 1 memory card.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a definite upgrade over its predecessor. With the larger 1080p screen, the larger joy cons that magnetically attach to the console itself, the better graphics, and faster load times, it's truly a joy to play. And the original Switch games even perform and look better. For instance, Smash Bros Ultimate has much faster load times. Totally recommend the upgrade if you can afford it!

Great upgrade over Switch 1, Screen is nice a bright and comes with a lot of storage.

My kids and I really do enjoy this to Nintendo Switch to is a lot better than the old one and able to do a lot more. We love the screen size and the function of the new Nintendo switch to we all enjoy playing on it. Thank you so much.

No more lag in switch games. Runs older games beautifully and at better quality. The only downside is the screen isn't OLED but it is a very nice looking screen, definitely an improvementover the previous bas switch. I use it mostly docked to my OLED monitor anyway.

I have bought every Nintendo system since the original DS. I love everything about the portability of the system, it runs smooth and the battery lasts me half my work day. I will forever recommend the Switch, and now the Switch 2.

Great buy, provided hours of entertainment. The ability to switch between home console and handheld makes the switch 2 a great option if you need to keep yourself entertained without worrying about internet speed or data limits on the go.

The switch 2 is a really really great console. Its a fantastic upgrade from the switch 1 and the difference is insane. The battery life is kind of iffy but the performance outweighs that negative. I own a switch lite, switch, switch oled, and switch 2, and i believe that this is the best option you can pick.

The overall size difference between this Switch 2 VS the original switch and the fact that the joycons attach and detach so many easier really is an improvement to me. The visuals also look so much better than the original and the system speed is quicker.

Honestly fantastic. A great, sleek system that’s a portable powerhouse and courtesy of Nintendo Magic is a console powerhouse too. Mario Kart World is incredible to play, and the NS2 has breathed extreme life into recent Legend of Zelda and Pokemon titles. New joycons feel excellent in hand.

This system is everything the switch was but way better. Much larger in size, much easier to remove joy-cons, and full backwards compatibility. A must have if you're a gamer and on the go. I travel a lot so taking a PS5 or the like isn't ideal... so my switch is always with me. Can't wait for all the new games Nintendo will bring our way.
