Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this console primarily for my autistic son since he loves playing on the regular switch we have. Got to the point we'd both game together regularly but some games he wanted to play required full controllers. Such as LEGO games and his train games on the device. Instead of buying a controller I decided to get him this, and he loves it! The switch Lite is as in the name, lite compared to the Nintendo Switch (old) fits better in my son's hands, the screen is smaller but I've noticed that the pixels seem more clean and crisp. My son was upset about the fact that the switch lite doesn't have vibration but personally with his autism its less stimulation. The battery is honestly solid, son and I spent a Saturday morning Grinding LEGO Star Wars the skywalker saga, bough a second copy so he had his own, and I was more surprised that my switch died quicker than his so thats a perk. Overall between my son and I we both love the little console, he likes the fact that it's easier to hold, easier to put in his backpack or in his words, "Not heavy in my pocket" Tempted to get the Zelda themed switch lite for myself, but I want to wait until we get his switch lite repaired. (Son wasn't paying attention to what he was doing and tripped and the console's screen is no longer responsive.)

This is my first game system that I have ever owned. After watching and playing Animal Crossing on my husband's island using his Nintendo Switch for months I really wanted a Switch of my own along with my own island that I can create. My husband ended up buying me a Switch Lite along with Animal Crossing. This has been the best gift ever!! The Switch Lite is so easy use to use and I really like the coral color. I have offically become a gamer!

Perfect little handheld for everyday use. I have no issues with it for having it over 2 months. Perfect for people that just want to step in the portable world. I’ve been loving playing legend of Zelda ocarina of time

Love it! Daughter loves it. Great color, size, and function. Also getting it from Best Buy using in store pick up is the most effective way I have ever shopped! Love them!

Cute color for a girl! It’s popular with the kids & I prefer the Nintendo lite over the Nintendo switch that has removable controls. I bought the Switch with removable controls 1st & had to replace the controllers twice. The controllers are made cheap but are very expensive! Buy the Lite, it’s more durable!! My 6 yr old does better with the smaller size too! It fits in her hands better.

such a pretty color! hard to find anywhere else! very light weight and easy to carry everywhere.

I got this for my sister because she would alwasy play on mine and she loves it, i would definitely recommend if you have younger siblings

Great handheld gift. Fits securely in hand. Easily to pack

Great for a little guy to have his first console. Ease of setup and use are great. The Nintendo parental app is awesome as well to help with screen time control.

My girlfriend loves the portability and availability of games. She loves games like Soul Fairer (might be spelled wrong), stardew valley, etc.

Fun to play! Great battery life and light weight. Easy to travel with and download games to.

I’ve had the original gameboy, the gameboy advance, a Nintendo DS and 3DS, but I believe this Switch Lite is my favorite handheld gaming console that I’ve owned! I wasn’t expecting it to be touchscreen, but some aspects of it are touchscreen and I love that! The screen is a lot bigger too than I expected! It’s a very comfortable console to hold and it’s very user friendly! Also, the coral color looks exactly like the picture online!

It won't be the best but if the most practical to be able to take it everywhere super fun and super practical its size there means that you can take it to where you go without a doubt a fascinating product

very cute and small! my original normal switch died so i got this. its really nice and easy to carry around and its the perfect weight to hold. my only problem is i feel like the battery life isnt long enough -- sometimes i feel like i have to charge it after 20 minutes of playing

I love this item so much. Very easy to use and beginner friendly for people that have never had a nintendo console. I would definitely recommend purchasing a microSD card because storage is very limited but other than that, I love everything about my switch!

After buying the Nintendo switch for my family, I wanted my own to travel with and not leave my family without a switch as well. This is a great option for that. I did not need it to connect to the tv nor removable controls, since it’s more for travel. I personally see no difference in gaming performance from the regular switch to this one.

I got the handheld switch so I could take it on the go with me. It has been nothing short of perfect to me. I highly recommend!

Got this for my daughter who loves playing Minecraft, Splatoon and Fortnite with friends. This thing is awesome, so small but the screen looks amazing. I like the buttons better on this than the regular switch since they're less clicky and it has a real dpad. The only drawback I can find is it doesn't do auto brightness like the original switch. Battery life is really good.

Very nice product. Lightweight, durable, kid-friendly. Good brightness on screen. It does have a glare so Id recommend an anti-glare screen protector. All controls work great. Ours is handled by an 8yr old and holds up well. It has a sturdy build that doesn't damage easily. Comes with a charging cable. It charges within a half hour at around 5% battery and lasts for about 3-4 hours after heavy usage. That's long enough for our kid to take a charging break and get off of it for a while. This switch lite is easier for younger kids so they don't have to worry about handling the removable handles that need recharged after a while. This is a single device that has less pieces to worry about. The downside is not being able to switch to the TV display to play their games. But this one is the more durable option for on-the-go playing. It's smaller and much lighter than the regular switch.

The Nintendo Switch Lite is a great handheld console for gaming on the go. It’s compact, lightweight, and the built-in controls feel comfortable even during longer sessions. The screen is bright and clear, and the battery life is solid for a device this size. I really enjoy being able to dive into games like Zelda or Animal Crossing wherever I am. That said, the lack of TV connectivity and detachable Joy-Cons means it’s not quite as versatile as the original Switch. If you’re only looking for a portable experience, it’s an excellent value—but if you want more flexibility, you might miss those extra features. Overall, it’s a solid choice for casual and dedicated players who prioritize handheld play.
