🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.

The Nintendo Switch Lite seems to enjoy overall positive customer feedback, thanks to its portability, vibrant screen, good selection of games, and affordable price compared to the original version. However, some reviewers have expressed concerns about the system's ergonomics (especially for those with larger hands) and a lack of some features found on other versions of the Switch. The eShop's speed was criticized as well, and the inability to personalize the home screen or position game icons to one's liking.

Pros

  • 🌈 Vibrant screen quality even for a non-OLED version.
  • 🎮 Great selection of games.
  • 💼 Compact and travel-friendly design.
  • 💰 More affordable option compared to the original Nintendo Switch.

Cons

  • 👨 The size and flatness of the console may be uncomfortable for users with larger hands.
  • 🐢 The Switch eShop platform is slower compared to other devices.
  • ❗ Lack of some personalization features found in other versions of the Switch.
  • 💾 Some people experienced limited storage capacity (solvable with an SD card).

Should I Buy It?

Yes, the Nintendo Switch Lite is recommended, especially if you prioritize portability and are looking for a more affordable option to enjoy Nintendo’s great selection of games. This version might be particularly suitable for children or those with smaller hands. Notwithstanding, some minor inconveniences such as the flatness of the console and slow eShop performance should be taken into account before the purchase.

    • Amazing device
Color: Coral
We have the original switch and decided to get this hand-held version so that we could play Fortnite together. It works great!

    • I love this thing.
Color: Blue
Mine has an awesome display. I play Hogwarts legacy, Blades, and animal crossing, as well as some old games like doom 3 (2005) and the original 90s dooms. All these games run beautifuly and look great. If you get the Nintendo online subscription it's around 20 bucks for a year (if you do a annual sub) and you get access to so many free Nintendo retro games. I also use it to watch youtube on. Pretty Affordable well made and I already feel like I have gotten my money's worth out of it. If you are primarily a portable player this is a good option for you at a much lower price point that the full switch. I recommend also getting a protective case and screen protection. ... show more

    • From what I've used before this one works great
Color: Turquoise
I never owned anything outside of used PSP, and used 3Ds. But from I know about games this one is awesome. Defiantly worth the buy. I've always enjoyed handheld game consuls over ones that connect to the computer or the computer cause I always feel tied down. Whereas playing a handheld gives me the freedom to play where I want when I want. Also I love it cause it gives me the joy of the PSP and the 3Ds as it has all of those fun Nintendo features but also a large single screen. I don't play that many RPGs and mostly play visual novels but for me its preformed great. The graphics show up clear and it feels nice. I can't really say about it's durability cause I bought a case, and carrying bag for it at the same time and even though I dropped several times by mistake that was probably due to the case protecting it. However I know Nintendo products are made verily well. And it feels WAY more sturdy then the PSP was and since its just one solid mass it appears it will last longer then a 3Ds [which I've scene the top screen break off after a long period of time and several drops later] The only thing I would really say is it doesn't seem like it is comfortable to carry around if you don't have carrying bag. I don't really know how you would do it. But a simple carrying bag and the thing is light and easy to carry. Extremely fun. And great if you want a Switch without buying the 300 dollar one. As it gives you the same experience without connecting to the TV which for me isn't any bother anyway since I rather play on the go. ... show more

    • PARENTS BEWARE: This could be useless to you too!

Review Image by Nathan H Nathan H
Gave it 5 stars because there is nothing wrong as described, but parents may want to read this: I have two kids and we already own the original Nintendo Switch and have amassed over 40 games throughout the 2.5 years since the Switch's release. The Switch Lite although nothing physically wrong with it, is completely useless to me and my family. I have two young kids, and all 3 of us have our own profiles which are linked under my main account via Nintendo ID. The problem is is that only the main account holder (me) can play the purchased games on both devices. So the Switch Lite does not work for either of my kids, only my main account. Yes, this can be switched by changing which Switch device is the "primary" switch, but the fact still remains that under NO conditions can my kids play both switch consoles at the same time, even if it is two separate games. If you have cartridges instead of digital downloads, you will not have this problem. I just fail to understand Nintendo's logic with this. I understand that they are trying to protect their own content from unauthorized use, but in doing so are rendering their newest device completely useless to customers like me. I will be returning. ... show more

    • The Future of Nintendo Handhelds?
Color: Turquoise
Update (Feb. 12, 2020): I originally gave this product 5 stars because the excitement of a brand-new handheld Nintendo console had not yet worn off. Now that I've been using it for a few months, there are a few things I take issue with. The first issue I've noticed is that the eShop is PAINFULLY slow compared to other devices. I understand that the Switch is behind other consoles in general, but I think there's an issue when it can run Minecraft (a CPU-intensive game) better than it can run the eShop. I know that in my original review I said that the eShop lag wasn't too bad, but it can be at times. I really don't see the reason for this. I mean, it's not a smooth experience at all. The icons take a while to load sometimes and if I scroll too fast I have to wait for it to catch up. It's the same thing when I switch between the menus, too. And no, it's not my WiFi. Now, the other issue I have is the home screen. On the 3DS, you could customize the icons however you wanted, you could put things in folders, and you could even have really cool themes! With the Switch, you don't get any of this. You get a dark mode and a light mode. That's it. Now, if you don't care about these features that's fine, but I personally like having the option to personalize my devices. Also, it's painful having to scroll through the games you have installed on your switch because the icons are so large and you can't make them stay where you want them. It's just really clunky and annoying. Another thing is if you're looking to you're looking to use your Switch for anything other than playing games, you're out of luck. There is no internet browser and no streaming apps. There is a YouTube app, but it's kind of bare-bones and you can't look at comments on videos. So, for these reasons I had to knock off a star from my review. The only reason I didn't remove more stars is because I still believe the Switch is a great system with a lot of potential. I still believe that Nintendo should continue with this idea and I hope that they take people's criticism into consideration. Oh, and this isn't really the SL's fault, but the screen is pretty small so certain games can be hard to play on it because it can be hard to see certain parts of the UI. Just something to look out for. Also, I know some people have already been experiencing JoyCon drift with this console, but I personally haven't had a problem with it yet. Original Review (Oct. 2019) I really, REALLY love this system. I don't own the original Nintendo Switch, and I got the Lite because of the lower price point and the lovely colors. I also wanted to play a lot of the games that are on the Switch, but not the 3DS. I was going to wait for the Zacian and Zamazenta edition to come out, but I decided I liked the turquoise edition better and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Now that I have it, I must say that I am very pleased with its performance. It runs faster than I expected from a system that is so small. I haven't noticed any severe lag (although it does lag a little bit if I go through the eShop categories too fast). Speaking of size, the Switch Lite is perfect. It's just big enough that I can see the screen just fine, but not too big that it's uncomfortable to hold. Keep in mind that I am someone with fairly small hands, so a person with larger hands may find the buttons and joysticks to be too close/cramped for their liking. The screen resolution is one of the highlights of this system. Compared to my 3DS XL, the screen is fantastic. Seriously, I didn't realize how bad the 3DS screen is until I compared it with this system. All the games look amazing, especially Super Mario Bros. U. Mario Kart 8 also looks great. Another thing I like a lot is the form factor. I like that everything I need to see is just on one screen and that the buttons right there beside it. It's not that I don't like the clam-shell design of the DS line, it's just that this form factor feels more comfortable to me. Of course, the form factor does come with its downsides. For example, it's going to be a lot easier to scratch the screen and the buttons. But that can be remedied if you just get a screen protector and a case to put it in. Another thing I like is that it comes with a charger. It seems like a no-brainer to put something to charge the device in with the packaging of the device itself, but guess what? When I got my 3DS, I had to buy the charger separately. Just another way for Nintendo to get money out of me, I guess. Luckily they did not make the same mistake with the Switch Lite. I also like that the cable on the charger is so long. It makes it easier for me to charge it and play it at the same time because I can get comfortable without worrying about holding my Switch in an awkward position. Although there are a ton of positives about the Switch Lite, I do have one complaint. My screen came with a stuck pixel. That really annoys me, but because it's kind of a light green/white I can't really see it when I'm playing games unless I'm specifically looking for it on the screen. I can only really see it when I'm in the eShop. It does suck though that an otherwise perfect system would have a flaw that can really be annoying at times. And anyway, Nintendo has said that it's a common issue with the screens so I don't expect that they would do much about it anyway. I was pretty disappointed when I figured out that the DS line of systems is pretty much dead now, but after buying the Switch Lite I'm kind of excited for the future of Nintendo handheld systems. I hope that they come out with more colors for the Lite and I also hope they expand upon this system like they did with the DS line. Overall, I think this system is a drastic improvement upon the DS line, but beware of stuck pixels and the fact that Nintendo does not seem to care about them. ... show more
