Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the impressive screen size, overall performance, and vibrant OLED display as major advantages. They also appreciate its portability, long battery life, clear graphics, and improved kickstand.

    Had to return it. Did not take any wifi after trying for 3 hours. Youtube video tutorials did not help either. Turns out this is a very common problem with the Switch. Going to buy Playstation instead.

    My son loves this system since he’s been using the switch lite this is an upgrade. Still think it’s to expensive though.

    Great for smaller hands. My hand cramps up after an hour of use. The screen resolution is subpar in today standards.

    We purchased this for our grandchildren. They love to play together. They were shocked that their dad knew how to operate it. They’ve had great fun; the Switch has performed exactly according to expectations.

    The device as a whole is great. However, we have had a bad experience since both brand new controllers drift. Sending them now in for warranty repairs.

    Docking Station Problems

    I should have done more research before purchasing this. This thing is brand new and I have the same problem that has been reported before. The TV will flicker on and off at random times. I have to either unplug and re-plug the HDMI cable back in, or pick up the switch and reset it in the docking station. I have tried 4 different HDMI cables and still have the problem. This is very aggravating! Nintendo should have this problem resolved by now.

    Finally broke down and purchased a Switch. This OLED is the first Switch we've had so I can't compare it to the previous model. No connectivity issues, works great when playing on the TV or as a handheld.

    Martial and build quality feels cheap. But overall, it is a good performing console for its size.

    Love it, I need another one just to have it. It plays all kinds of games. I thought it could only play 1. How lucky was I to only have to wait 3 years to finally get one.

    Happy with the purchase, but upset that can't browse on it or watch netflix / disney+, only YouTube. Hopefully nintendo will fix it.

    While entertaining, I found the ergonomics to be quite uncomfortable when the controllers are attached to the switch.

    I love this system. I bought it for my 4 year old daughter, but me and my wife are enjoying more than her. 4 years might be to young for a switch, but it is definitely being enjoyed!
