Love it. Portable and good size for being a hand held console

Great switch unit that plays all the games like the standard version, but without removable controllers. The feel in your hands is great and the color is super. If you don't have one with a dock, I would recommend that first, since this works great as a second option. If you just want to play some Nintendo games in handheld mode, however, then this is the switch for you.

Great for gaming on the go. Really like the blue color.

Perfect gift for my son. Light weight. Works great. Long battery life.

I bought the Switch Lite so my wife and I could have separate islands in Animal Crossing. I played the original Switch a ton in handheld mode, especially in bed. After playing with the Lite, the original Switch feels so heavy! The Lite is great if you strictly want to play handheld. But do not buy if you have any desire to play on the TV. I do miss that option more than I thought I would.

I'm late to the Switch ownership pool but picked one of these up for mobile gaming. Specifically for Animal Crossing and the upcoming Pikmin game. It's a good light weight and a pretty screen for a mobile device. The ability to dock and remove joycons was not important for me so no drawback to this unit.

Good handheld game for time pass. Good size screen and battery time is fine too.

Great gift for our son he loves to play with it recommend it

I’m not usually a fan of handheld portable gaming devices due to the size and the awkward way you have to hold it. I would rather use a more comfortable controller on a larger screen, however, this is the perfect size and the fact that you have options to purchase attachments to make it feel more like an actual controller was my selling point. While I still find using the the tv and regular controllers more comfortable, I will say they did an amazing job with this one. Battery life is pretty good as well as long as you’re not internet gaming with the screen brightness maxed out, then you get maybe a couples hours max I’ve learned, otherwise it does last longer on a single charge. I would suggest a screen protector as it scratches fairly easy, the only downfall, but thanks to the plastic screen it won’t shatter like glass would if dropped, which I have done a few times already and it has held up fine.

I bought this switch for my wife and she absolutely loves it, rate for children and or people new to switches

Switch Lite is great for a portable console. Better than the original.

My daughter loves it. It's smaller than the regular Switch so it fits well in her hands. It doesn't fit in the standard Switch dock so you have to charge it with a cord but it's really not a big issue. I wish digital download games can be shared within our family so now I know to just buy the physical games and not the digital downloads.

Its a Nintendo and does exactly what you would expect. It is super durable and has held up well to my children and their recklessness.

I've owned many handheld consoles over the years: GBA, DS, 3DS, PSP, and PS Vita. By far, Switch Lite takes the cake. The screen is large enough to display the details, though if your eyesight is less than perfect, you may have to squint on a few of the text-heavy games that were not designed with a small screen in mind (so far, I've tried several games with no real issues). The resolution and color vibrancy is just beautiful, sound is great, load times are minimal, battery life is impressive, and it's actually quite comfortable to hold for hours on end, even for someone with small hands like me! Beyond the hardware, Nintendo's library for the Switch is on par with Sony and Microsoft's offerings, which is a nice improvement over previous systems. Add to that the classic titles that Nintendo is known for, and you just can't beat it. Absolutely recommended!!

I bought this for my niece and it is perfect for the price! It’s so easy to carry around with her everywhere she goes, and it is perfect size for her. She loves it and the color is perfect

I’m relatively new to the switch but this far I’ve found it pretty fun. I was concerned about navigation but it’s pretty easy to use and figure out. I’m in love with Animal Crossings

light, fast easy to use. perfect to fit in the pocket

The switch is amazing. It fits perfectly in your hands. The color is incredible.

This has been a nice addition to my gaming collection. Lightweight. Decent battery.

I really love the lite. I have the regular switch but this is so light weight and portable.
