The Nintendo Switch Lite currently stands as what I would consider the best value Switch available- at least until the Switch 2 finally drops. For $200, it's hard to beat- and I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo keeps it around at that same price tag even after the Switch 2 releases. But what about you, anyone have the Switch Lite? How do you like it, is it worth it in 2024?

*Switch* *Lite* Picked up another turquoise Switch Lite the other night from OfferUp in brand new condition for $130. Loving it again! But this better be my last time. This is the fourth Switch Lite I bought. Broke the previous two turquoises and didn’t like the coral. I feel like John Wayne in that I Love Lucy episode that had to keep making those footprints on wet cement. I think Switch Lite has become my most *rebought* gadget of all-time. But it’s my absolute favorite form factor of the Switch. Let’s see if fourth time’s the charm. And this is my third turquoise Lite which could be third time’s the turquoise charm. I’m still mad at myself for messing up the previous Lite I had. I will not make the same mistakes again. I’ll use my SN30 Pro so the left stick will not wear out after 7 months like it did with my first Lite. And I plan to always use the velcro strap when it’s inside the case. No more accidental falls when I forget that the zipper is open and then watch it crashing to the floor resulting in a hairline crack on the screen. Maybe I’ll get the Switch OLED again but I’m content with only owning the Lite. I just couldn’t tolerate the weight and width of the OLED. And I miss how sharp the graphics looks on the Lite thanks to the smaller screen but higher ppi. I miss the real d-pad too. Only thing to tolerate with my new Lite is the worse battery life. I only had the OLED for 6 days but it definitely had noticeably better battery life. If I got an OLED again and many do go for $250 or less on OfferUp considering the sellers know the Switch 2 is coming, then I would need to deregister my Lite as the primary console. That gets annoying. I would always need to have an Internet connection for a moment to play my games because it’s no longer the primary. Might as well wait for the Switch 2 instead of getting another OLED. I think when buying a handheld, I believe comfort is the most important thing to me and then battery life considering I don’t game for hours like before. Probably why I would go for the Retroid Pocket 4 over the Odin 2. True, it’s weaker. Worse battery life. But it’s cheaper by $100 and it’s smaller and more pocketable. Smaller, lighter, and cheaper are the key factors when purchasing a handheld for me. Size, weight, and hand comfort are all important for me. They’re called handhelds for a reason. You want your hands to feel comfortable when holding it. I don’t want to return to the days carrying bricks like the Game Gear and Atari Lynx. I’ll likely wait for the Switch Lite 2 by 2026. North American releases - DS: 2004 DS Lite: 2006 PSP: 2005 PSP slim: 2007 PS Vita: 2012 PS Vita slim: 2014 Switch: 2017 Switch Lite: 2019 Switch 2: 2024? Switch 2 Lite: 2026? Wait every two years. There will probably be a smaller PS Portal too which will include Bluetooth. With bigger consoles, it’s waiting three years (2006->2009, 2013->2016, 2020->2023) although PS5 slim is not that much smaller. We have these large smartphones already including foldables that weigh over 250g. Now you want to carry another brick for gaming? The PSP 2K and the PS Vita 2K models remain the most comfortable handhelds I’ve ever owned. It’s why I still own them and planning not to sell them. Weight - PSP: 280g PSP slim: *189g* PS Vita: 260g PS Vita slim: *219g* PS Portal: 529g Switch: 398g Switch Lite: *277g* Switch OLED: 420g Pimax Portal Retro: 306g Odin 2: 420g Anbernic RG405M: 260g Retroid Pocket 3+: 235g Retroid Pocket 4/4 Pro: 251g Steam Deck: 669g Steam Deck OLED: 640g So the Odin 2 is as heavy as the Switch OLED with the Joy-Con attached? I did get used to using the OLED but I still got wrist fatigue after 20 minutes. Not exactly the best size and weight while sitting on a toilet 🚽. I think my max weight for any handheld is no heavier than the Switch Lite but no taller and wider than the Vita. Steam Deck OLED is the best handheld out there but I’m torn if I really want a PC handheld or not. I really couldn’t tolerate the Switch OLED size, now imagine the Steam Deck? Then I’d play Red Dead Redemption at 30 fps on my Lite and start to think how much better the sequel looks on the more powerful Deck. I can barely hear what they’re saying in RDR because the Switch Lite’s speakers are so soft. Still waiting for that Switch 2 announcement. I still kept the slim case for the OLED and I’m hoping the Switch 2 (or Switch 2 Lite) can someday fit in it and be of similar size but be much lighter and thinner. This likely wins out for me thanks to the many Nintendo exclusives. I wish there was a Chinese handheld that looks like the RG405M but lighter and still have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

If Switch 2 is around the size of a Switch OLED, I hope they make an updated Switch Lite; hopefully being slightly smaller so it easily fits in your pocket (Lite has a lot of bezel, so making it smaller wouldn't necessarily mean shrinking the screen down).

The issue with the Switch lite is that they did not make it a clam shell design for optimal handheld design.

Fantastic little device, perfect for playing older AAA games and very convenient to use. For reasons I’ll never understand, I actually use it more than my PS5 and PC. There is a big issue though, I bought it specifically for a 9 hour long train trip to visit the family a few months ago, for the majority of that trip, the Switch was essentially unplayable due to how much the sunlight affected the screen. I could barely see a thing, so unless you have a portable blind for public transport, the Lite is far from ideal to travel with on bright days. PS, The Batman Arkham trilogy is not as bad as what was made out in the video, Asylum and City run perfectly, Arkham Night isn’t perfect, but I didn’t have stuttering in the Batmobile anywhere near that bad in my entire play though. There is lots of noticeable FR drops until you clear out a lot of the bad guys on the street, and the graphics aren’t great, but I found that game more than playable.. 🙂

I found a well conditioned switch lite for 100 usd. I live in Sweden where a new switch lite is priced in 300 usd (we have high taxes). I actually want to get a switch oled, but since the switch 2 Is releasing THIS year. I dont want to buy the oled right now. But I still really really really want to play the Mario games. so as a temporary device for a couple of months I am really considering getting the switch lite (used for 100 usd) is this a good idea? yes? no? tell me

You’re in a tough situation haha. If I was in your shoes, I think I would just wait for the switch 2 and hope that it’s backwards compatible with switch games. But the switch 2 is most likely coming with an lcd screen and not an oled. There’s also a switch lite oled custom mod that is being worked on right now. It’s not official, it’s not out yet, and you’d have to take apart a system yourself and change out the screen. (I’m excited for that bc I already own a switch lite). If you have a computer, you could try emulating the games you want to play. I don’t think you need very powerful hardware to do that.

4:46 Yes the Wii U was a very different console and did not sell well. It makes sense, that the Switch does not have backwards compatability with it (where would you even fit the disc haha). But what about the 3DS ... the Switch is also a successor to the (3)DS line and unlike the Wii U, the 3DS sold well (enough) and also had cartridges. Are the internals very different? Ok ... but the Switch has such a higher power level compared to the 3DS, that it could easily have powered a translation layer or an emulation. Maybe to much time has passed and there is something / some reason I missed, that my memory has lost to the inevitable fading of time. But this question has come up again and again recently in my mind. Also ... Sorry, that this comment is not directly related to the video topic.

It's a very nice little console. I purchased it for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (never cared about Mario, Pokemons or Zelda) and had a nice time. I'm also a huge Piranha Bytes fan, so I enjoyed returning to Gothic on this console. :) It's cheap, especially used so I recommend it if you are looking for something new, but don't want to spend much money

What do u think now? Where the switch 2 is rumored to be release in Q1 of 2025. Im thinking of getting the switch oled, but still comparing it. Is it worth it or just wait another year to potentially buy the switch 2. (Im a new user, and this will be the first time im buying the switch)
@thepsplayer60397 ай бұрын
Everything about the switch 2 is just a rumor at the moment. Literally, nothing has been confirmed. I read somewhere, that if you keep thinking about "what if", you will have a rough ride. Wgat we do know for sure is that the nintendo switch is available now. Sure, it seems possible we get a successor, but who knows what is certain. I would say you can still get any switch, because of the fantastic library. That being said, I am myself contemplating between a switch oled and lite for mainly handheld play.
@Dec4AllTimeAlways10 ай бұрын
*Switch* *Lite* Picked up another turquoise Switch Lite the other night from OfferUp in brand new condition for $130. Loving it again! But this better be my last time. This is the fourth Switch Lite I bought. Broke the previous two turquoises and didn’t like the coral. I feel like John Wayne in that I Love Lucy episode that had to keep making those footprints on wet cement. I think Switch Lite has become my most *rebought* gadget of all-time. But it’s my absolute favorite form factor of the Switch. Let’s see if fourth time’s the charm. And this is my third turquoise Lite which could be third time’s the turquoise charm. I’m still mad at myself for messing up the previous Lite I had. I will not make the same mistakes again. I’ll use my SN30 Pro so the left stick will not wear out after 7 months like it did with my first Lite. And I plan to always use the velcro strap when it’s inside the case. No more accidental falls when I forget that the zipper is open and then watch it crashing to the floor resulting in a hairline crack on the screen. Maybe I’ll get the Switch OLED again but I’m content with only owning the Lite. I just couldn’t tolerate the weight and width of the OLED. And I miss how sharp the graphics looks on the Lite thanks to the smaller screen but higher ppi. I miss the real d-pad too. Only thing to tolerate with my new Lite is the worse battery life. I only had the OLED for 6 days but it definitely had noticeably better battery life. If I got an OLED again and many do go for $250 or less on OfferUp considering the sellers know the Switch 2 is coming, then I would need to deregister my Lite as the primary console. That gets annoying. I would always need to have an Internet connection for a moment to play my games because it’s no longer the primary. Might as well wait for the Switch 2 instead of getting another OLED. I think when buying a handheld, I believe comfort is the most important thing to me and then battery life considering I don’t game for hours like before. Probably why I would go for the Retroid Pocket 4 over the Odin 2. True, it’s weaker. Worse battery life. But it’s cheaper by $100 and it’s smaller and more pocketable. Smaller, lighter, and cheaper are the key factors when purchasing a handheld for me. Size, weight, and hand comfort are all important for me. They’re called handhelds for a reason. You want your hands to feel comfortable when holding it. I don’t want to return to the days carrying bricks like the Game Gear and Atari Lynx. I’ll likely wait for the Switch Lite 2 by 2026. North American releases - DS: 2004 DS Lite: 2006 PSP: 2005 PSP slim: 2007 PS Vita: 2012 PS Vita slim: 2014 Switch: 2017 Switch Lite: 2019 Switch 2: 2024? Switch 2 Lite: 2026? Wait every two years. There will probably be a smaller PS Portal too which will include Bluetooth. With bigger consoles, it’s waiting three years (2006->2009, 2013->2016, 2020->2023) although PS5 slim is not that much smaller. We have these large smartphones already including foldables that weigh over 250g. Now you want to carry another brick for gaming? The PSP 2K and the PS Vita 2K models remain the most comfortable handhelds I’ve ever owned. It’s why I still own them and planning not to sell them. Weight - PSP: 280g PSP slim: *189g* PS Vita: 260g PS Vita slim: *219g* PS Portal: 529g Switch: 398g Switch Lite: *277g* Switch OLED: 420g Pimax Portal Retro: 306g Odin 2: 420g Anbernic RG405M: 260g Retroid Pocket 3+: 235g Retroid Pocket 4/4 Pro: 251g Steam Deck: 669g Steam Deck OLED: 640g So the Odin 2 is as heavy as the Switch OLED with the Joy-Con attached? I did get used to using the OLED but I still got wrist fatigue after 20 minutes. Not exactly the best size and weight while sitting on a toilet 🚽. I think my max weight for any handheld is no heavier than the Switch Lite but no taller and wider than the Vita. Steam Deck OLED is the best handheld out there but I’m torn if I really want a PC handheld or not. I really couldn’t tolerate the Switch OLED size, now imagine the Steam Deck? Then I’d play Red Dead Redemption at 30 fps on my Lite and start to think how much better the sequel looks on the more powerful Deck. I can barely hear what they’re saying in RDR because the Switch Lite’s speakers are so soft. Still waiting for that Switch 2 announcement. I still kept the slim case for the OLED and I’m hoping the Switch 2 (or Switch 2 Lite) can someday fit in it and be of similar size but be much lighter and thinner. This likely wins out for me thanks to the many Nintendo exclusives. I wish there was a Chinese handheld that looks like the RG405M but lighter and still have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

i'm not gonna lie lmao i own both the oled and the lite and i actually prefer the lite over the oled, it's just such a solid unit and it gives me nostalgia of playing on my old gameboy pocket back in the day and also feels like a "successor" to the 3ds. i also feel more comfortable taking it around with me, not that i've ever damaged any of my switches (they're both in pristine condition) it's just less likely to have anything break due to being one single part.

Switch lite is an insane indie machine and the price is a sticking point for games, but if you keep an eye out on sales and 2nd hand games, you can get around that with a tiny bit of effort. The fact its 7 years old means there are a lot of deals and 2nd hand games, you just need to look around. In terms of value for money nothing comes close besides a Steam deck if its available in your region.

Despite the switch not having better performance, power, and graphics like ps4/ps5 or the xbox one or series but still damn good system. The switch lite is something my brother loves after getting him for christmas last year as he wanted something more portable and use on the go. Bro only wishes their was updated oled model. bigger stretched oled screen, better battery life, more memory, and if possible updated thumbsticks. But that might happen with successor so few more years he has to wait.

@jasons8905 ай бұрын
I have both and I prefer the Lite. If I didn't care about playing on a TV, I would go ahead and trade it in for a Lite. It is much more ergonomic and portable to carry around and I only use the Lite on the go. The regular has way too many moving parts that can get broken if you drop it but the Lite is all in one piece. I saw a post online of someone whose kid completely ripped the joycons from the rails. When something like this happens or if it suffers a bad drop, the joycons won't pair in handheld mode because the sensor that detects the joycons is damaged. This also means that the Switch itself won't be able to charge joycons, even if you buy a new set of joycons. It will still work in docked mode using Bluetooth because Bluetooth doesn't required the sensors required to detect joycons but what's the point if you your sole purpose of having it is to use it in handheld mode? The Lite is much more reliable because fewer things can go wrong. I wouldn't say that it's a downgrade from the regular but an upgrade💯

I am not a “gamer” and despise huge tvs and the extremely bright color that comes along with them. My husband games with his Xbox and I get dizzy and nauseous anytime I look at his game. I’m considering the Lite for some throw back games like Super Mario, and I feel like the handheld device addresses the issues I have with traditional gaming systems. I love that it’s handheld and I don’t have to stare at a 65 inch TV to play.
