I mostly play single player offline games so the lite is all I need personally, I used to play game boy as a kid and this is basically the best handheld I could have asked for as a kid

I’m mainly a PS5 player and I bought the yellow switch light around a year ago. I am very happy with this choice. I never bought Nintendo online and mostly get digital games for the price discounts and I use it at least 3 to 5 times a week before sleep. Highly recommend it.

After constantly disregarding the idea of buying a Lite since I already have the OLED model, I went and bought the nice Animal Crossing special edition and have not regretted it at all. The OLED model is superior in every way, except for handheld mode. I really like handhelds but never liked the OLED model in handheld mode. The Lite is so much more comfortable to hold and a great handheld. Oh and the D-pad is awesome. Especially since there are so many 2D platformers on Switch.

the Lite is specially a good option if you already have a PC or console and just need a handheld (no phones aren't a viable option)

Lite is gonna be elite when flash cards make an official comeback. If we’re being really adventurous, if people are able to utilize things like raspberry pi’s for tv projection, it would be revolutionary. The portability exceeds the regular switch, that alone makes it the perfect emu device imo.

Just got a switch lite & love the lil guy. Even if it gets outdated, as long as it has games on it u can let ur nieces & nephews play it instead of ur phone

I just bought a Switch Lite for my girlfriend, for me it's totally worth it since she loves playing animal crossing. Now we do not need to take turns with my Switch Oled, thanks for this detailed review. More power to your channel.

When the new switch comes out I can see myself getting a lite to be my legacy way to play og switch games

I brought mine a year ago even tho i have an oled, but honestly its great!!!
I been taking it for vacations while the oled stays home. "YESSS" I know the oled has a better screen but honestly i don't care. I love the lite for its small compact size, and i don't care what people think its my preference and i like it.

I don't have any switch device yet, I've been playing my 3ds and could never validate getting another console when I work so much. But my best friend is moving and i want to try out animal crossing so we can still connect.
I think im gonna get the lite next week, I hope it'll be an easier transition for me since the ds/3ds has been only console I've ever had. Right now im looking up lite vs OLED and reading dozens of articles and comments on them, but I think lite will be the best way for me to get my feet wet.

I just got the Isabelle Animal Crossing edition Switch Lite that came out like 2 months ago… I hope it’s lifespan isn’t close to ending especially having variants like this release so late

How does this not have like a million views? This was the best video I’ve watched in a while.

It has been so long since I’ve owned a gaming console (Nintendo DS to play Pokemon/Kirby, etc). I have been playing mobile games on my iPhone. I’ve been thinking of getting the Nintendo Switch Lite since it cheaper than the regular Switch. I don’t need all the bells and whistles. Just something simple to play Nintendo games. Thanks for the review. I think I’ll go with the Lite. I’m just worried about the battery life. 😅😊

My lite has been awesome. I've had some minor joy con issues that were easily fixed, but other than that no other issues.

When I got my ps5 just last December, I was then contemplating whether to sell my lite, and was actually close to doing so. I'm just glad I decided to keep it. After about 5 months of not touching the lite I inserted botw and replayed it. It is still fun to play af. I love my lite

I've had multiple switches in the 6 years its been out and never owned a lite until now. I bought a zacian zamazenta edition on ebay for about $150 and I love it. The oled model never interested me because it what it should have been day 1, especially in 2017. Even with the rumors of a new switch iteration this year, the lite is absolutely worth it right now. There is no way that nintendo will leave behind its current customer base by not including backwards compatibility with the 'switch 2' or whatever they call it. Sony & microsoft did this with the ps4 and xbox one when they released

[wills]

I love my oled! Couldn’t care less about the new console because there are more games on the switch than I could ever play. And since I play a lot of indie games I am all set with my oled!

[clydefrosch]

the great advantage of the lite is how tiny it is. get it with that one flip case and its protected from anything in your bag. if you get it modded, throw in another 40 bucks to get hall effect stick in, as they need to take it apart anyways,

[OhThatsBabyJoe]

I have the OLED, I recently bought a LITE just for travel purposes and I don’t regret it. It’s really a good handheld.

i regret not buying the switch lite any sooner and i wish i bought it when it first came out
