Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the color and its very compact for little hands. The battery last long enough and my daughter loves it.

You don’t need anymore opinions, you probably have done your research already, if you don’t care about docked and want to save a dime then this is an option, but it’s important that you know that joycon drift can happen on this console, so I highly recommend you get the insurance. The thing about the switch lite is that it has alot of color and flavor and to me that is what makes the Switch line so fun, the joycon colors etc etc, but just really keep in mind the limitations because you might regret not spending a bit more for the regular switch or even the OLED switch, the OLED would probably be the best in terms of handheld experience. Imo the OLED is very nice, massive screen but I still really enjoy the switch lite, it’s more portable (I say none of them are truly portable since they aren’t “pocketable” unless you don’t mind a slab sticking out of your pocket) and again it is fun and has more color plus it is cheaper but it’s just something to keep in mind. If it wasn’t clear I have all three, I only go out with my switch lite (excluding travel/ sleepovers because of dock) and only because I want to protect the more expensive consoles, I don’t want them to break or have them stolen, but I genuinely love the lite the most because of its fun design, its more portable, it’s color and the D-pad. Just get insurance if you don’t want to fix joycon drift or plan to take this everywhere with you, AND GET A SCREEN PROTECTOR (applies to all Nintendo Switches).

So it is not a full Nintendo switch so it seems it does have some down parts it won't play all of the games, that good like the one that use the smaller controllers, and it has a smaller screen and feel, because it is smaller, but great for one person travel. It can connect to other switches to play together. I think the color of the Coral is a bit darker then bubble gum pink.

Nintendo is a household name and it should be. They have always released great products and still have not faltered when it comes to great first party titles. That being said I think its high time Nintendo becomes the first oceanhold name, let their name conquer the seas!! So I bought this teal ocean colored switch to play under water. I will be the first man to play the switch completely submerged in the ocean for 365 days straight!! Visit my youtube page for documentation of this great feat!!

Brand new in box as ordered. Great portable hand held console.

Bought it for my daughter for this Christmas, but gave it to her early to make sure it worked and she loved it

The color and all features are amazing. I was so excited to get a switch and Im happy I chose this option

Got it for my gf and she loves it. Last for a good time and just fun

Bought this for my girlfriend. She always wanted a switch and she loves this pink one(coral as they call it) so I bought it as an anniversary gift for her. She absolutely adores and loves it! She doesn't mind that it's not the OG version that connects to the TV, she just wanted a switch that she could play whenever on the go. She plays it almost everyday and she couldn't be happier with it. Well worth what I paid for it and a great gift she'll enjoy for a long time.

Wonderful. I love it. Beautiful color. Portable, and convenient. Great buy. Makes very good gift.

Love it had no problems with it at all 100% recommend

Great quality. Have had for a few months with no problems. Holds charge for awhile.

I LOVE playing this thing. It fits nicely in your hands. Very lightweight. Would buy this 100x again.

My kid loves it, he can't get enough of it every day

The Switch Lite is ,in my opinion, a better device than the original. I play exclusively in handheld mode and this is more portable,has better graphics and battery life. I"m keeping the old one in case I ever decide to play in docked mode. A good buy if you play primarily in hand held mode or are a first time Switch buyer.

Got it for my sister as a gift. She loves her pink!! Switch Lites are a good affordable purchase. However, before purchasing you really do have to be true to yourself and figure out if you really want to not have your games played on the TV. I made the extra $100 or whatever investment. It’s much more worth it for me, and I think I’ve put in plenty of time into playing my switch. If you aren’t interested in that at all, go for the switch lite.

Though I call this a mini console, it really is mostly the same as the original Switch but without... the Switching feature to a TV that makes a Switch a Switch lol! You still have access to the giant library of games that the original Switch can play with the exception of gameplay that absolutely requires Joycons. However, if you like to have extended gaming session in bed from time to time, this is the device for you. The form factor, size, and weight are perfect for long sessions. Whereas I've owned the Mario Odyssey edition original Switch for a few years and gamed in bed with it quite a bit, the lite has become my default portable since it puts much less stress on my wrists and arms! The only downside I've noticed from a technical standpoint is the precision of the d-pad. You would think a historic company like Nintendo would be able to design flawless controls by now, but the d-pad does not respond like I would like it to in a game like Tetris 99. I even returned the first Switch Lite I bought to Best Buy to make sure it wasn't a defect with that particular unit, but it seems it may have been a design flaw. I heard the original units at launch had issues with hitting diagonals and it seems they've corrected that. But as a result, when playing against high level players in the end game of a Tetris 99 match, I'm more prone to making erroneous hard drops or left and right movements during a hard drop given how fast and accurate I have to play to win. This seems to only be with Tetris and I imagine the precision of the d-pad in platforming games may be enough (but I haven't tested it much).

The lite is an awesome hand held. I like the size and the color omg it’s so pretty! Very happy with this!

I've been wanting a smaller version of the Switch since last year. The original switch it too big to take on the go. Switch Lite is a lot smaller, lighter, slightly better battery life. Best of all, It's easier to take with me where ever I go compared to the original. 5/5 stars. Thanks Nintendo.

Switch lite is pretty nice. The color looks great. Good size and screen isn’t too bad. I haven’t had any issue with games or performance. It may not have the same functionality as the normal switch but it’s nice to have around when you’re bored.
