Customer Ratings & Reviews

Child is very happy with the switch. She prefers the smaller one compared to the regular one because it fits her hands better.

The design and weight of the console make it perfect for portable mode and the colors are excellent

Picked up the Switch Lite a few weeks ago for my wife and she loves it. It feels a lot more compact and lighter making easier to take along with you. Feeling lighter makes it better for playing in handheld mode compared to the regular Switch. The Switch Lite is a great option for anyone who is more on the go and doesn’t need the docking/TV mode. I would highly recommend the Switch Lite for anyone looking for a new handheld.

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.

Got a switch lite since i wanted to have some games to play while relaxing and didnt really need another console to plug into the tv. Bought it to play games such as pokemon snap, pokemon shield, and neo the world ends with you. Graphics are great and games are fun. Wish the battery life was a little better but i mostly play it at home so thats not much of a problem

I have not had a personal gaming system since the game boy color and I am quite pleased with the new switch lite! I played a few games on the larger switch console and decided to purchase a handheld device for myself during travels and to assist in quelling some anxiety. I am so pleased! The gaming system is very user friendly and the games available for it are great! Plus, the blue is the best!

Got it for my son and he just loves it. Works great hours of fun smaller for his hands also

These are amazing for travel or just playing at home! Our 5 year old loves it!

Why did I wait so long to buy this??!! I'm totally in love with this system. I went back and forth as to whether to buy the Lite or the full system. Decided to go with the Lite for now and I'm happy I did. A little thumb/hand cramping based on the position of the button on the right side, but after about 2 days that went away. I wish they made a purple one, but I'm glad I got the pink - so pretty!

Just the right size for my nephew. Convenient to take anywhere

All in all, you really just need a Switch or a Switch Lite, you don’t need both. If you don’t own a TV and don’t plan on playing any games on a TV ever, the Lite is for you. But why limit yourself? I would personally rather get a used $200 Switch (which you can’t really do now due to Covid but pre-Covid you could find them for $175-200) versus a Switch Lite. Being able to “Switch” between playing on your TV or going portable is what the Switch is all about! Needless to say, ignoring the limitations the Lite has for a $100 reduction, the fact is you can still play Switch games for $100 less. It works great. I haven’t had much drifting issues with the JoyCons and you can always send your console back if you do come across any drifting issues. The color is very nice and clean. It’s a great console! But I would definitely pay $50 more for a Switch Lite Pro that did enable you to dock it to play on your TV, but maybe no rumble.

Great quality, light and easy to carry around. Bought it for my kid who loves it.

If you’re the type who has the privilege to spend more than an hour in the bathroom, this nintendo switch is your partner. Never fails you nor lets you down, always there to entertain you when the going gets tough!

The battery life isn't as long as expected, but other than that, this is everything I hoped for in a console. I play very casually to relax before bed or in between working and this is perfect for my needs. The color is also beautiful and brings a lot of nostalgia. I haven't had any issues with drifting or anything like that and I hope it stays that way.

This is a great entertainment option. We already had one switch that connects to the TV and did not need another, however with 2 kids in the house fights over the switch were common. This is a great 2nd option to any household with multiple kids. This way we have both, the same games can be used and on road trips they each have their own! I also love the non-traditional color (not pink) with the teal option.

I love my Switch Lite! It's an affordable option compared to the full switch. I love that I can carry the system with me and play anywhere. The system is easy to use. The display is beautiful. The sound is rich. I want a PS5 as well but I was hesitant on having two systems. The Switch Lite is a great option if you don't want two systems.

It's light, portable, and looks nice. Great buy if you just want a nice handheld.

Perfect switch to always carry around. Super light and small. Great if you only play in hand held

Overall good quality and very light as well. I wish there were more color choices though.

This is my first Switch and I am thoroughly enjoying the Lite! I bought it because I knew I would only be playing in handheld mode and it is the perfect companion when I am on the go. Strongly encourage purchasing one of you want a gaming system while traveling or commuting!
