Customer Ratings & Reviews

Perfect for Kids, and adults. Easy to use, can take it anywhere and play your games. Fits nicely in your hands and works great. Need some time out for yourself this handy game machine can played in bed, in the car on the airplane. Love it!

Bought this instead of the normal switch and I am pleased with my decision. Because you cannot dock it the joy-con portion of the system is permanently attached and feels similar to the old PSP systems but larger. The screen is smaller than the normal switch but big enough to have the detail and visibility that you’d need. Battery life is good and portability is excellent. Case is recommended.

The Nintendo Switch Lite in Blue packs a punch in its compact frame. With responsive controls and vibrant display, gaming is a pleasure. Its portability makes it perfect for on-the-go gaming, and the extensive library ensures there's something for everyone. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or new to Nintendo, the Switch Lite delivers endless entertainment. Highly recommended for its performance and convenience!

This device is so much fun! I was looking for something portable for trips, flights, etc., and this proved to be a great investment. It lasted the whole flight from DC to Colorado, and still had half the battery-life left. I will say, something VERY important to consider, is if you are purely looking for a portable device then the Lite version is great - but for me I ran into instances where I wished I could play certain games on a big screen (TV), so I inevitably traded up the Lite for a normal Switch. It's purely preference; I do believe the Lite is more stable and durable from a "portability" standpoint. The Switch's removable joycons (remotes) do feel slightly loose, whereas the Lite they are built in so you don't have that issue. Because of this I think the Lite version may be more "kid-friendly" due to the durability. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone wanting to purchase a mobile gaming system. Brought back all the old Gameboy feelings from childhood! **PSA - buy an SD card when you get this; 128G is usually fine. The software downloads for games takes up a lot of space.

I love this console so much, it reminds be of my old D's lite. The feel in had of the console is so nice, it just sinks right into my hands and I never find my hands cramping. It has a pretty good battery life and is perfect for playing my indie games

Now that you can buy titles like Diablo, Need for Speed, and Hades from the Nintendo store this is too good to pass up. Plus, it's finally available in a color that isn't gray or pastel. I really like the color and the device is very snappy and light. You play Youtube and Hulu on it but there is no Netflix. To get a Chrome browser you have to do an elaborate trick. None of that matters though. For $200 bucks you can play some really nice games and it's comfy to hold.

This feels sooo much better in the hands than the bulkier original Switch, that I can't go back. Even though its lighter, it feels more solid as the joycons do not come off, and it doesn't bend like the old one did. My arms don't get tired at all holding this. AND it had an actual D-pad! I also do not notice the smaller screen when playing, at all. It's just a much more pleasant handheld experience, which is exactly why I go it.

I bought this to play some of the older Nintendo games on the Nintendo eShop, and I haven't been let down. I really enjoy the family plan that Nintendo offers—$80 a year for up to 8 people is a great deal. The battery life is amazing; my son uses his more than I do because his original Switch has much shorter battery life compared to mine. I would definitely recommend getting a bigger SD card, as one game can quickly fill the 32GB of onboard memory. Personally, I enjoy the retro games more than the newer ones. Works great with my phones hotspot so i am able to always have internet when needed.

Purchased this Nintendo switch for my daughter as a Christmas present and she absolutely loves it. I’d recommend this product for all age groups. It definitely has been keeping her entertained/

Perfect for a hand handheld only experience, I personally love the color finding it closer to the original GameCube than actually blue. The lack of vibration is a bummer though as well as the lack of any ability to connect it to a TV (even if you get a dock it won’t work) so if you are only wanting a portable only system this is perfect. I would suggest getting a screen protector though and maybe a carrying case.

I’ve always had a huge respect for portable game consoles since the PSP and the nintendo switch/lite is no exception. I’ve had mine for roughly about 6-7 months and I haven’t had any issues with it. For those wondering what are the differences between the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch Lite goes as follows; Nintendo Switch Lite is smaller in comparison and more friendly to those wanting to play hand held, Nintendo Switch Lite DOES NOT HAVE REMOVABLE joycons, the battery life is also slightly lower on the Lite than the original Switch, and the Switch Lite also does not come and isn’t compatible with the Nintendo Switch’s Dock. The only issue that I’ve heard happens is when the controllers/joycons have drift, drift causes your controls to not respond to your movements making it frustrating to play. This is a bigger problem for the Lite since it doesn’t have removable joycons you’d have to send the entire console in for repair, as to the Switch you can detach the joycons and send those instead. However, I’d highly recommend purchasing a Pro Controller if you see yourself playing games such as Smash Bros that require fast pace movements to your controller. All in all the Nintendo Switch Lite is a great and amazing gaming console it’s small, easy to store, and a lot of fun to use! I would highly recommend it I have the new blurple lol and I find myself using almost every day!

I could not find a Nintendo Switch Lite ANYWHERE at regular price. I searched well over a month and a half, stopping at Best Buy every day on my way home from work to see if they had any available. Their helpful and kind staff were always happy to search inventory, but were always sad to say that they weren't even able to special order it for me. They did, however, always tell me to check online and as promised I was able to find one on stock in the very early hours of one fateful morning! I love how Best Buy was true to their word in being able to find their Holiday rarest items online, if you really do your best to check constantly. In my opinion, the Switch Lite is truly the pinnacle of this generation's handheld gaming devices. It is just really a beautiful little device that works so amazingly and will have your loved ones having hours upon hours of fun. It is just so amazing how this sleek and light little gaming piece can play such great games as Breath of The Wild, and Super Smash Bros Ultimate all while playing miles away from your home! Best Buy provided me a product in immaculate condition at an amazing price compared to others during this Holiday. They were always true to their word, providing ship to store details that were perfectly on time! and despite worries of a delay I picked up my device on the exact day that was promised to me! Thank you Best Buy!

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

I’m a lil crazy cos I already own an OLED Nintendo switch but I wanted a smaller / more portable version of a switch. Even though the screen isn’t nicer than the OLED model, it is definitely worth considering if 1.) you only plan on playing in handheld mode. 2.) if you’re on a budget and just want to play some Nintendo exclusives. I like the indigo color, and it is very lightweight and easy to carry. Even for my large hands, I can game comfortably for an hour without my hands getting too tired. It has a micro sd card slot, the speakers are loud enough, and the touch screen works fantastic. Slap a thin clear case on it and it’ll feel even better in the hands. My only complaint about the switch lite is that Nintendo makes it kind of cumbersome to own multiple consoles. For example.. I can’t play my animal crossing save or Pokémon saves on both switch’s that I own. So when I want to play those games I have to play on my bigger OLED switch. Other than that, I love my switch lite: it comes everywhere with me. I don’t mind if it gets beat up in my backpack.

Perfect for On-the-Go: My kids love taking the Switch Lite everywhere! Its lightweight, compact design makes it super easy to bring along for car rides, trips, or just playing around the house. Kid-Friendly: It’s durable enough to handle the rough-and-tumble life of being a kid’s device. The controls are intuitive, and the games keep them entertained for hours. Great Game Library: With a huge library of fun and engaging games, there’s something for everyone, from adventure games to educational ones.

Super cute and easy to travel with. I knew my son would love it and he cherishes it. Has helped him learn patience as well as bringing his personality out more. No complaints! <3

I bought one for my almost 8 year old son recently. He loves it. Nintendo still makes the best consoles. I've been a Nintendo fan since 1989.

my daughter loves this item its lightweight and holds power

If you don't want the bigger switches this switch lite is for you. Small than the regular and OLED but still performs the same. If you have bigger hands maybe think about getting one of the others. I have to contour my hands a bit uncomfortably to hold it but overall good for the price.

This review isnt for the item, its for the best buy warranty. They changed the wording between when i bought it and when i needed to use it and instead of replacing the item because it had a cracked screen they gave the plmobey back i paid for the item, which is another thing, they claimed it was on sale for 140 and nintendo products never go on sale. The people at my location were amazing. They argued for me as high as they could and when they were stonewalled they offered me what they could. I did not buy the warranty again. As for the device itself, my kids love it. Be careful with the charging port, it tends to come lose, and its an electronic, so dont leave it where it could get stepped on or wet... aside from that it works great, companies are bad, not the product.
