NintendoSwitch Lite - Yellow

Bought as a gift for a 6 year old, he is now 7 and it's taken quite the beating but still looks and works like new!

I purchased this for my nephew, with the protection plan, and he loves it. The color is vibrant, it’s easy to use and navigate, it look very little time to set up. I is a little lighter than the regular switch which I am happy about.

Todo excelente

For those who use/will use the Switch exclusively as a handheld device, I would recommend this system over the original Switch! Here are some things I've noticed in comparison to the original Switch so far:- The Switch Lite is far more comfortable to hold and and use than the original Switch thanks to its smaller size and ' lite'er (hahaha) weight. I can hold this small boi for a lot longer than the larger Switch before having to put it down to rest my hands.- All the buttons have that superior Gameboy Advance button feel, ie: they don't feel a tad too rigid and clicky like those in the larger Switch. Plus there is an actual d-pad here. The system is made of plastic and has a sort of coarse feel to it. It won't slip out of your hands too easily and feels nice to the touch.- Screen size is a bit smaller- 5.5 inches vs the Switch's 6.2 inches, but this ties into the greater ease of use as a handheld as mentioned before. In terms of brightness and display quality I cannot say that I see any large differences. It's possibly a bit better since it's the same 720p but in a smaller screen? Anyway it looks great just like the original (and requires a screen protector just like the original.)- The color schemes for this system are some of the best Nintendo has ever offered in my opinion. The yellow one that I got looks fantastic and I'm glad that I chose this over the turquoise and the Pokemon themed one.- Sound output is slightly lower in terms of volume than the original Switch. This is probably because the speakers are on the underside of the system as opposed to the front. This is a minor thing though, you'll still hear your games well enough.- The battery looks to be draining at a similar or slightly slower rate that the original (release day) Switch. However keep in mind that the newer shipments of the original Nintendo Switch are supposed to have a larger battery life.- You will of course be missing out on a number of features: no docking to the TV/monitor, no detachable controllers, no HD rumble or IR camera, no kickstand. However as mentioned before this a pure handheld, and I believe it serves that purpose better than its larger brethren.For anyone who already owns a Switch and is interested in this system, it's a no-brainer. The Switch Lite is maybe the best handheld made by Nintendo so far. If you are choosing between the Switch Lite and the original Switch however, the decision becomes more difficult. I play most Switch games in handheld mode. If I had to choose between one of these today, I would probably choose the Switch Lite. If you like playing games on a larger screen, or you play local multiplayer games (Super Smash Bros. comes to mind) you probably should go with the original Switch. You'll have a lesser handheld experience, but you'll also be getting some really great features that you'd miss out on with the Switch Lite.

love it, easy to use, love the battery life.

I bought this Switch Lite and a Switch OLED (the bigger version that connects to tv too). The Switch lite is the one that stayed, and I returned the OLED. I think it’s a personal decision, so there’s nothing “wrong” with either. I had to own both to see which I preferred. For me, the lighter weight and slightly smaller size was what won the race for the Lite. And I love the yellow color. This reminds me more of the classic GameBoy’s more, with the buttons and custom colors being more nostalgic to me. The OLED is a lot larger and heavier, and while I liked the idea of connecting to the tv, I ended up using the handheld method more. The screen is plenty big enough that I didn’t need the tv (for me). Great graphics and coming from a GameBoy Advance SP, this newer Switch Lite was an upgrade but still kept the familiar look and feel of what I am used to. The OLED felt like holding a laptop, just too much stuff for me that I didn’t need.Spending many hours playing this and it makes me feel like a kid again, very fun. And Nintendo makes the style of games that I prefer anyways (Mario, happier less violent games), so everything lined up perfectly. Buy one, you won’t be disappointed! The Lite is very nostalgic, and the newer upgrades are nicely balanced with that.

'nuff said.

So I have owned a PlayStation vita for years and I love that console. It's basically unavoidable that I'm going to end up comparing the two.I bought the Nintendo console to get access to new games. Though I was interested in getting the original switch, I waited because I read about a number of problems, and I know Nintendo have a habit of bringing out a follow up console soon after.I like this. It fits well in my hands. My hands are quite big, and all of the buttons are very accessible. This is an advantage for me over the vita because it sometimes felt like your hands would cramp.Two things hit me right away about the Nintendo. Where's the Netflix app? Where's the internet browser? It still looks like a tablet, much like the original, yet smaller. So I don't see why it can't have these two things. The vita does and its ancient now. Seems like it should be added.The most important part is the games. I went browsing through the library and there were thousands of games on there. I downloaded a few games and they came across and ready to play quickly. I can tell you the vita took forever with larger downloads. Not so with the Nintendo. I was playing within minutes.Another feature I love is the memory. Huge advantage over the vita. Sony were basically ripping off the gamers with the absurd prices of memory cards. This system comes with 32gb. And takes any sd card. This is learning from Sony's horrible mistakes in the best way. Im so happy with this.What I'm not terribly fond of are the game prices. I will keep my vita and plan to still play it. Some of the games Nintendo have on their library, Sony also has. There isn't a huge difference in quality but Nintendo has noticeably higher prices. Thsts a bit of a shame but I can live with it.Fantastic mix of old and new games, cheap memory, and a nice console with a good size. Do I love it more than my vita? Don't know yet. But I will update this later with a final verdict*** updating***Having used this a bit now, I find that the battery drains a bit quicker than the vita does. The vita would hover around full charge for a long time, then suddenly drop to a low charge and stay there for a long time. The Nintendo battery doesn't last quite as long but the meter drops gradually. It's not a problem for me on either console.I do find that I love the games on the Nintendo. Been playing guns gore and cannoli. It's along the same lines as rocketbirds but with an altogether different story line. But I feel the Nintendo definitely has the edge with graphics. Also downloaded doom, which is just as much fun as I remember from the 1990s. On the vita you would need to hack the thing to play that game.As far as which one is working out better I still can't make up my mind.Update***It seems I am more or less ignoring the vita now. Sad to admit that as I do love it so much. Fact is though the games I am playing on the Nintendo are just better. And those are newer games too. I feel like the vita has some Important advantages over the nintendo despite arriving much earlier. You know, battery life, screen quality and an internet browser. However it's the games that matter. The vita has great games but it won't have new games. Recommending my friend pedro for adult gamers, and I'm quite liking Ghostbusters and capcoms fight bundle.***update***One criticism I have of this is that for anyone with big hands you are going to feel your hands cramping and, for me at least, it doesn't even take long. I suspect it is due to the position of the buttons, sticks and shoulder buttons. I don't usually play for more than 20 minutes at a time and I feel the cramp in my hands. If you don't have big hands it might not be an issue. Though I won't reduce the rating for the console because of this. There are grips you can buy for both the switch and switch lite to help with this problem. Going to try one of those now to see if it helps.
