Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love it! My son got the original switch so I was used to playing that. But I love the fact this one is smaller and not as heavy!! You loose out on a few games cause of the joycons but I’m not stressed over it honestly. Also love the color!! I recommend it to all my friends who don’t have one yet!

This unit, Nintendo Switch Lite is a really solid, lightweight game console. It looks super cute and is way more portable than the original Nintendo Switch. The turquoise color is great, and the feel of the buttons is solid. Although the screen is slightly smaller than the OG Switch, everything looks great during game play. If you don't want to spring for the Nintendo Switch, or just prefer one solid unit vs the controllers being removable, or you're feeling like treating yourself to a secondary unit that's arguably more portable, this unit is for you. That said, if you're looking to go back and forth between the OG and the switch lite with Animal Crossing, it's a bit complicated... just read up on that before you purchase a second unit because once you transfer your island to another console, I believe you're locked in. Maybe you can switch back, but it's not like most games that you would download online that are more easily accessed by any console you have registered to your Nintendo Online account.

The switch lite is exactly what i was looking for in a handheld console. The battery life is up to par with my needs and the ergonomics fit my larger hands nicely

Very light, and you can take it anywhere . It looks small but once you turn it one it does not seem that way. The graphics look good as well on any game. From Witcher to animal crossing. The other nice thing about it is the controller doesn’t feel like it’s going to come apart like the bigger switch

Very light weight, the color is beautiful very aesthetically pleasing. Perfect for long play times, battery lasts pretty long and charges pretty fast. I wouldn’t recommend if you have large hands, my boyfriend find it hard to play because it’s smaller, but a separate controller can fix that. I am very happy with it.

Beautiful device with good battery life and a much better feel in the hand than the full regular Switch. It's lighter and yet feels more sturdy. And the color is lovely. I wish Nintendo would increase internal storage but otherwise I have little complaints. This is the Vita successor.

I love it. I play with it everyday. I love it. Love it

It runs great, and it plays most of the switch games. I just bought this because the regular switch was out of stock. I managed to snag one, so I returned this. I prefer the regular switch because you can dock and play it on the TV, and I feel the buttons and analogs on the are better. The regular switch weights a tad more, but in a couple of days I got use to the difference. For me I think the regular switch is small and portable enough for me, as I don't take it out much. But overall a good portable device for plays that want a lighter and cheaper switch. I recommend this device still.

It's practical, lightweight, easy to carry in your bag, and easy to load and store your favorite games.

The Nintendo Switch Lite is so fun. We have a regular Switch and added a Switch Lite so different people can be playing different games at the same time. The Switch Lite is, dare I say, more popular for one-person games. It's light (can't decide if this pun was intended or not), easy to move around, has a clear screen and feels just right in your hands whether your laying out on your stomach, lounging on the couch, or sitting up in a chair. We haven't done it much, but you can even pair a pro controller for more "serious" one-person gaming without being tethered to wherever you've already got a TV. My only real gripe is that transferring game data between the two consoles is way more clunky and cumbersome than it should be, considering that cloud saves are a subscription feature we pay extra for. Nintendo really needs to make that process completely automated or, failing that, at least a one-click option instead being buried three screens deep in an obscure menu.

It’s light but sturdy, comfortable to hold, easy to use and has a good size screen. Also has a pretty decent battery life and room to add additional memory if you want. Can’t really ask for anything else! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good little handheld gaming console.

Great performance. Kiddo loves it! Great alternative to the full switch unit and easy to take in the go.

Light weight, easy to use and handle; screen does great in the light. Battery life is fairly good; charging speeding is average, and it last quite a bit for the ultimate gaming experience. Over all it’s a good choice. I got the extra memory card we haven’t had An issue

Great color, happy I went with the blue! It's such a pretty color! The device is actually bigger than I expected, which is a positive!! Functions great, was able to set it all up easily. Everything appears to work properly and was glad I could find one for Christmas!

Bought for my 8 year old daughters first entry into portable video game systems and she loves it. Easy to set up and link to my older sons account, nice color and great for her to watch the some YouTube videos on as well instead of always stealing our phones. Great item at a great price!

I love this little switch. We have both the original and this one, and this one is great for when we are on the move. The battery lasts a very long time, and it is super light and convenient. We use this for our five year old and he loves it.

I haven’t played video games much in years but I wanted a relatively inexpensive place to play simple stuff like Mario. The switch lite was totally the right choice! The graphics look great and it’s just a super fun little console!

My kid loves the switch, but plays ours constantly. For Christmas, we got her the switch lite. She LOVES it! Perfect size for her and even a little bit better battery. She has no problem starting over on her games either as it pre-occupies her even more at times. She loves playing through again. Highly reccomend for a kiddo.

I love the system. It's so lightweight and as someone that's just getting back into video games, its definitely easy to learn how to maneuver. The colour is so pretty and it hold a charge well, seeing how much I'm on it. It was definitely worth waiting for the restock.

The Switch Lite is the perfect size; it is in my opinion the best way to play Switch games on the go. Super comfortable in the hands and games still look great on the smaller screen. Nothing is better than pulling this out of a jacket pocket and playing Switch games in those awkward in between moments likes waiting rooms or restaurants. If your highest priority in a gaming device is portability and you loved the Gameboy/Advance, PSP, or DS variants you'll love this.
