Customer Ratings & Reviews

I much prefer the portable version of the handheld over my standard switch. But if you are looking to replace your standard switch with the lite version, not that there is no docking option for the lite version.

My daughter very ask Santa about this think . She love it so much

My teenager has a regular switch, but when my 5 and 6 year old try to play it, they seem to drop it often. So I got the switch lite. So much better! They love it and they can play against each other on their own devices.

Nice color for my daughters and works great for game play. Definitely recommend a memory card to go with if you intend on buying mostly digital games but the system works great. Only other thing I'd recommend would be all parent accounts for letting your kids play. Do not create them their own accounts because no matter the parent preference and how you set it, there will be games that will be marked with high age ratings even if theres no need and no matter what you do, you will not be able to let your child play under their own age profile.

My son absolutely loved this for his birthday. Thank you for the easy buy.

Fun to play. Take anywhere you want to go. Best price.

I was a first adopter of the launch Switch and I love that system and the games. When the Switch Lite was announced I was hesitant, but after seeing all the review videos and unboxings, and knowing my long lasting love for Nintendo handhelds, I knew I was going to pick one up. I mostly used my original Switch in handheld anyways, so now it sits docked and this is my primary system and I have no regrets! This little system is really neat! It's VERY light but feels sturdy. The buttons are quieter than the original Switch, so it makes playing in bed next to a sleeping wife better, and the screen is beautiful. My hands are quite large and they can feel a little cramped, but there are grips that I know would help with that, but I haven't tried any because it would take away from the gorgeous form factor of this system. It's so slim and compact, it's really pretty amazing the power that it has inside, considering it can play games like Witcher III. If you're on the fence, I say go for it. It's a fantastic little handheld that can play some of the best games on the market today. If you only use your original Switch in handheld mode, I recommend trading it in and going with the Switch Lite. You won't miss much about the original system!

Switch is portable and battery life is sustainable. For me, it lasts about 2-3 hours depending on brightness level and what game i am playing.

The switch lite feels solid. It is very light. It is portable and can easily be carried in a case and thrown into any backpack.

I’m very happy with this Nintendo Switch Lite. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and the screen quality is great. The size is perfect for kids, and the battery life is very good for everyday gaming. It arrived in perfect condition and works flawlessly. Definitely a great purchase and totally worth it.

I bought the switch lite so I could play Animal Crossing New Horizons. It is light weight and easy to use. It is comfortable in my hands and all of the buttons are within reach. I will definitely buy more games for it.

Bought a Switch Lite so I could play my games while traveling for work. It’s light and easy to pack, plus I love the color.

Purchased this as a secondary Switch and sometimes prefer this to the original one. Very lightweight and easy to travel with.

Awesome love how I can play comfortably wherever I want. I know the switch is portable to but it’s a little heavy and a bit to big to be a hand held. The lite is smaller and much lighter.

Perfect for my daughter. I don’t like my kids playing around the house with our full switch console. The lite is the best of both worlds with price and portability.

Great for compactness for lower performance. Joy sticks last a few years before having to replace them with a 3rd party or just buying a new switch lite altogether

This is my first handheld in years. Last one was a game boy advance. Very fast load times and good graphics for a handheld. One thing that surprises me Is that the console has a matte texture all over. Took me a little while to get used to it but it’s good. Some games are challenging and would probably be better on the full sized console since it has separate joy-cons. Battery life could be better. I tend to get around 3.5-4. Hours. WiFi is painfully slow sadly. My house has speeds of 250 mbps and the console only gets roughly 25-30mbps. This is a known issue with both models so downloading games and updates will take time. Other than that it’s a great console. I bought super Smash and Pokémon sword with mine and I’m extremely happy with the purchase.

This device is neat and does the trick when on a budget, but I much prefer the regular Switch. It feels more durable than the Lite, has a slightly bigger screen, and can be played on your TV. I'd consider the Lite for a responsible pre- or early teen, so they can take it with them places, but not hurt your wallet as bad when it inevitably breaks.

I actually really like the Nintendo switch lite. I thought I wouldn’t enjoy it but I did. I only ended up returning it because it wasn’t ergonomically right for me with tendonitis. For 99% of people this is an amazing buy and a great pocketable handheld gaming device!

My son loves this I got it for him for Christmas he loves the Mario games it stays charge for a great amount of time the durability is great he’s dropped it a few times I would definitely recommend!
