Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought it for our 4yr old as a Christmas gift. So he hasn’t used it yet but he has tried it in store. The smaller form factor of the Switch Lite is easier for him to play with it. Also the fact it comes in one piece without the removable joycons like the normal Switch is better for smaller kids, i.e. less prone to damage/failure. I would still recommend to buy a protective case for accidental drops, a screen protector to prevent scratches and a carrying case for travelling with all the games and the charger.

I purchased this for my daughter as a Christmas Gift. She loves it! She loves the color and it really holds a charge for a long time. She especially LOVES the turquoise color!

Graphics are wonderful and fits perfectly in your hands. Wide array of games to play and easy on the eyes. So much to do on technological wonder. My kids love it!

Same reliability the system has had for years. Would recommend.

Easy set up and ease of use.Battery life is good for car rides.

Love this. I love the design and color. My nephew enjoyed this game. I brought this years ago for my daughter and decided to buy it again for my nephew. He loves it

The nintendo switch lite is perfect size for my 8yr old son. He loves it. He had the original and he never used the tv dock. This was is great for him. Battery life is good.

Love it my babies girl don't get off of it she love all the games we have got for her on the switch.

I really enjoy the full version of the Switch when displayed on the TV. I won't bother discussing the games and the FPS values on a 4K screen; those reviews can be found elsewhere. Instead, I want to discuss how the Switch Lite addresses one issue I have had with the Switch, which is taking it out of the dock and playing with the built-in screen. First, when undocked, the Switch feels a little wobbly. The Joy-Cons lock into place, but there is a sense of instability that bothers me. Second, the Switch and Joy-Cons together are heavy. In my opinion, too heavy even to be able to wear out a battery charge before wearing out my hands. Finally, the sticks on all Joy-Cons are just weird. They are so short that I find I have to adjust the sensitivity up quite a bit to feel like I am capable of playing anything. If I do not, I push on the sticks so hard that I wear out my fingers quickly. The Switch Lite, on the other hand, addresses two of the three concerns. First, the whole unit feels very solid. It feels nice in the hand and has a consistency that works. The instability of the Switch is gone. Second, the Switch Lite is really light! Compared to the Switch, the Lite is like holding air. I can play this for a couple of hours and forget about it. I've enjoyed that quite a bit. The joysticks, however...are still the same, and I don't care for them as much as I could. I can get used to them, as I have, but it is jarring and takes me out of games sometimes. The Lite can support external controllers like the Pro (which is great, by the way), so I may use that, but it does seem to make the fact that the Lite is a portable console a bit irrelevant. I was curious about how the smaller screen on the Switch Lite would affect gameplay vs. the Switch, but I haven't really noticed a difference. Looking between the two, the difference is very noticeable, but in use, I haven't felt like I'm missing anything. In summary, I am very pleased with the Switch Lite. At this point, there are now three in the house, which should be an endorsement. The feeling of stability is welcome along with a lighter form factor. The joysticks are my only issue, and I didn't actually expect that they would change, so I was not disappointed in that regard. I recommend the Switch Lite for sure!

Perfect gift for mg little. She takes it everywhere.

great product, compact, easy to use, handheld, long battery

Great product! First time user for my 9 yr old. She cant put it down, easy to use and great color.

I think this is one of the greatest handheld gaking decices.

My kids love their switch lites. Very convenient and extremely durable as they are dropped constantly.

Nice device very light n the battery is awaom it take around 2 hours to charge n you can play around 6 to 7 hours ....

It’s still fairly portable, the cartridges are very small so they can easily fall in a crack. You will need to buy a SD card as it doesn’t come with one.

Great mobile gaming system, great games and a lot of fun,if you have a regular switch this one is smaller Mobil version

I highly recommend this Nintendo Switch to all ages, who seek fun and entertainment, which could lead to hours of entertainment , with a huge selection of gaming options in their library at the Eshop. Works great with online gift cards, and easy to use, would recommend for others seeking for device options.

I own both a Switch and a 3DS. Recently, my wife has been hogging up the Switch due to COVID and Animal Crossing; so I picked up this little guy since I play my Switch in handheld mode most of the time anyways. I have to say, this is the best portable game system I've owned yet. It's so light weight and pocketable, yet as powerful as the regular Switch. I was concerned that the screen would be too small for me but so far I haven't had any problem with it, if anything, the display is sharper due to the pixels being more packed into a smaller display. This is the perfect marriage of a Switch and a 3DS.

This is a must have for Switch users. It’s a genuine extension of the portability of the Switch, and is nice for on-the-go play as it is notably lighter than its predecessor.
