I find the Lite to be more worth it for me than the regular switch. I already have a home console, my Xbox, and I’m not interested in many of the local multiplayer games. It’s great for playing Zelda while laying in bed or on the porch. I love it.

I wish Nintendo put the bigger OLED screen on the Switch Lite instead of the normal Switch. I wasn't all caught up in those "Switch Pro" rumors, but I'm still kind of confused why the biggest upgrade for the new Switch is a feature that is completely irrelevant if the system is docked. A bigger, OLED display would have been more useful on the Switch Lite since you can't dock it. I know this video isn't about the OLED Switch, but since you mentioned you wish the screen was bigger on the Switch Lite, I thought I'd throw this opinion out there haha

Rockin’ the Han Solo look…

For someone who is constantly on the move everyday of the week for my job, the Lite was absolutely perfect for me. At first I wanted to get the base Switch but thought it better to have it for just handheld only. I didn’t want to constantly hold a heavy console while playing, it may hurt my wrists (Plus I have too many home consoles anyway lol). And I mainly play visual novels on the thing anyway. So gameplay wise, it’s perfect!

Nice wrist tattoos! “A Man Chooses” & “A Slave Obeys”. I’m a BioShock fan myself.

I'm honestly surprised more people aren't treating the switch lite like a Gameboy spiritual successor

As someone who’s very busy, i appreciate the switch lite so much. As I’m getting older, the portable aspect is far more attractive to me. Can’t wait to play Pokémon diamond again!

A lot of people are commenting that they can't afford it. What I do is buy my switch stuff in offerup or facebook marketplace! Buy Second hand people! You can always test them out locally! You'll save a few buying used. Make sure to test buttons in the settings to make sure they all work, the joycons calibration but don't actually calibrate them just spin them around to make sure no drift or let it be to see if it moves by itself. As well as testing the touch screen. Hopefully this helps!

Love this review style !! The honest convo vibe is REFRESHING !!

Just bought one for my 10yr old daughter for her birthday. Was debating between the regular and lite but figured go with the Lite. Reminds me of having a regular Gameboy Color/Advanced like when I grew up. For a pre teen I think the Lite is perfect

Really want one.. but still struggling save money to buy one.. wish me luck guys.. during COVID-19 hard to keep up on living daily.. Really need one Switch Lite..

“This is the super game boy advance” LMAO😂

I had my switch lite for about a month and I love it. Having no docking ability does suck a little but for the $199 price tag it’s a great handheld. I mostly play my PlayStation so it’s worth it just to play a few Nintendo exclusives.

I have a Switch and a Switch lite, and I really like to use the Switch lite for handheld gaming and then switch to the regular Switch for gaming on the bigger screen.

First bought the Lite a year ago since already had a PlayStation. Loved so much the console that decided to upgrade to the bigger version and no regrets. Even for playing exclusively handheld, the bigger screen really make a diference.

I am mainly a PC gamer and I had a New 3DS XL and I needed an upgrade and a way to play indies and Nintendo titles on a handheld console. The Switch Lite was just the right device to do all that for me! It is a great little machine for indies and I love it to bits!

I bought a lite while owning a switch and thought I was wasting my money and would only play It for a week. I never touch my og switch now I love my lite. It feels so much better in the hand and it's sturdy and doesn't feel like the controllers are falling off all the time. Maybe when we are out of covid I'll play with ppl in the same room again but I love my lite and still think if I'm alone will only play on that

I had a OG Switch, I changed it for the Switch Lite which whilst having the best design by far, I found the screen too small so changed it back for the OG Switch lol. This is a very true review, for adults the Lite is a bit of a challenge to use but it's design is amazing.

Bought the switch lite blue a few days ago, loving the convenience and gives me the old psp vibes back then. The buttons feels a bit flimsy but other than it’s a good handheld. I do agree with the big hands problem too. During long periods my hands get fatigued and cramped so it definitely needs a case with it

I just got my switch lite a few weeks ago!! It's the pokemon special edition. I got a bunch of physical games but I got the 256 gb memory card and downloaded so many games on it!! Love the indie games! Perfect size since I'm commuting on the bus daily. Everybody on they phones and there's me putting in work on my backlog lol

I own a switch lite. I really like it. I am currently playing FF 12 on it and I really like having a grand rpg on the go.

It's the same for me when I put it in my pocket, have to take my time in taking it out but other than that it's a good value indeed, already have a Ps4 so I miss handheld, so it was the switch lite for me☺️, great review!

I've bought a lite at the beginning of last year and it's been my companion since then. I simply love it

THANK YOU for agreeing with the color!! I hate people calling it blue, it’s definitely purple

I like the honesty, and keep reviewing tech, I know you’ll be up there one day

thanks for the honest review, deciding between a switch and a lite and i'm heavily leaning towards a lite for the portability

I don't know if anyone commented on this, but that blueish-purple can be called "Indigo" I guess.

I believe the GameCube also came in this gorgeous purple-blue colour. They should really make it their signature at this point

Is it me or is he dressed like Harrison Ford in Star Wars?

Bought the same exact lite , Had mine for about a months already & it’s well worth it for lazy gaming or on the drive ! Can’t wait for GTA trilogy to come out in a few days it’s gonna be so fun to play portable !

"A MAN CHOOSES, A SLAVE OBEYS!" love the tatts.

i bought a switch lite for my 21st birthday as the first ever gift i auto buy for myself (as i started working while studying) i agree with everything you noticed, from the neck pain to the hand struggle; still i love af this console! (i'm mainly a pc/ps4pro gamer)

I just like the regular a lot. It makes hot box sessions really fun.

Exactly. I have the same feelings about my Switch Lite. I think they could totally solve this with a flip-open style Lite similar to the 3DS/2DS XL. I have a 2DS XL and much prefer the feel of playing on it compared to the Lite and the games were all developed and optimized for playing at that lower resolution. What it translated into was a better experience for handheld gaming. I think Switch Lite missed the mark and seriously could improve. Sure, it's light enough in weight I guess, just not that comfortable IMHO for longer playing sessions. However, I guess that's why they have the OG Switch, so I don't have much of an argument there. Still though, I'd love to see a folding Switch Lite even if it unashamedly took some design language from the 3DS XL--plus included like a 7" screen like the new Switch OLED. If they did that and even just charged like $50 or heck even $100 for an OLED version, it'b totally worth it to me.

"its to small to fit in a pocket" me with a thicc case on mine and still putting it in my pocket

Thanks for the insight! I've been in the PS Vita community for the past 8 years, seeing games like Rocket League, Skyrim, Bioshock, etc run so well on something like the Switch lite really impresses me. It's a lot more expensive here, but i might just have to pick one up sometime.

I bought the Switch Lite like two weeks ago for a pretty solid price imo. If you use it handheld most of the time anyway it’s probably the best option. The screen is on the smaller side and some games are just annoyingly small on it like Rocket League. The battery life is enough for me. The thing that is probably the biggest disadvantage is the 720p screen. It’s just not as sharp especially when you try to look at things in the distance. All models have a 720p screen though. Build quality is alright however not state of the art (like you said joysticks). I‘d recommend getting a case and buy the smartridges since you can sell them again.

I have the switch OLED but Im thinking about getting this for playing while laying in bed. I also would love one of these for taking out to waiting rooms at the doctor's office, mechanic, dentist...etc. I can't see myself taking the OLED on the go with how expensive it is, and how the joycons could eventually wobble. This baby looks like it is built like a tank and can tolerate a little more abuse than the OLED.

Buy the sleeve it fits into made by NINTENDO. It fits directly into your pocket where as the OG switch does not.

Is this dude a giant? The device looks so much smaller than it actually is when he holds it in his hands.

so far you have had the BEST reviews on this product. GREAT JOB

You're not wrong about charging the Switch Lite by other means.

I use it on the couch late at night when I'm trying to get my kid to sleep away from mommy. Probably the most play I've put into a Nintendo system since the SNES. It's perfect for going in and out of sleep mode constantly. Hades was a great experience for me on it but maybe if I ever play that on a big screen I'll realize what I was missing.

@6:05 the requirement to use a Nintendo charger only applies to the switch when docked. For handheld and switch lite. You can use any chargers/backup battery pack. Ideal 5v 2A ones.

I got my regular switch last week, and i'm so happy though i'm not intensely playing with it. I always have a dream to have console. I remember when i had to borrow my friend's ds lite... and now, i'm an adult i finally can afford mine 😭😭😭. I personally prefer the regular one though i reallyyyyy want the yellow lite, but here in my country, price wise they are not very different.

I have a PS5. Getting a switch lite was the better choice for me. I love it. It’s beautiful and very fun to play. I recommend the lite for anyone who already have home consoles

There is no escape. I'm getting one too.

Dreaming about your review about the Nintendo Switch OLED or the external battery Magsafe! Good video! Keep doing it. Watching your videos from Brazil

As someone who has a gaming PC and a PS5, the Switch Lite is perfect for me. I don't need the regular Switch since i don't have any use for the dock.

2:42 So what you want is a foldable screen device, something you could close and make it small enough to fit in your pocket and then pop open and big to play with a decent screen size. I remember why (on that time) the GBA SP was the dream device for me. At this time it would have to be a foldable screen kinda like those niche Samsung devices that are currently on test.

That’s the classic indigo Gamecube color

The best thing you can do when buying a switch lite is getting it a grip case. It’s a game changer and no more hand cramps!

I've never watched a review from Han solo before. I'm not disappointed.

I've had my 2ds for four years and I've never had a problem with the joystick. The switch should've used the same model

I sincerely appreciate and enjoy your videos man! You helped me decided to get the switch lite on one of your other vids! I think this is an awesome device, I love mine. Although I’m still excited about preordering the Steam Deck, my switch will definitely be around for awhile. 😁

underrated channel period.

every time he said bluish purplish I screamed indigo at my computer

“Blueish purple” oh, you mean “indigo.”

It’s basically a powerful PSVita. I even have the PSVita is Blue as well lol

Why are you dressed like Han Solo?

I always called this Nintendo color indigo.

I’ve had my lite since they were released. The regular switch is just not worth the purchase for me because I have so many home consoles and with the pandemic i don’t need another. I just bought a small charging stand and a pro controller and for me it’s the perfect portable console

I like the switch lite on the road. When I was on a road trip it was a blast playing Mario odyssey. I use it more than regular switch which I leave docked most of the time. The design and feel is nicer than the regular switch

I honestly like this color I wish this color was the OLED

i have 3 switches 2 regular and 1 OLED . the yellow lite looks the best one and is the one always sold out.

Solid re-review bro. And I get what u were saying about receding thumb sticks. 🤣Totally agree on everything u said. The regular Switch just has so much versatility with switching controller options, bigger screen, multiplayer anywhere, and TV screen option that the lite just doesn’t do it for me. I just got the Hori Split pad pro for Reg Switch and it’s game-changing. Can’t change that on lite. But I’m glad the lite exists because more options for consumers is always great.

Han Solo giving tech reviews now…….DOPE!!! Haha

Nintendo's strenth was always the portables. I think Switch was an exception. Switch Lite is more of a reminice of the original Gameboy. I think the Switch Lite will become a classic.

Your hands are huge, you hold the switch just like I grab my phone

I love my Switch Lite, bought one in 2020 when Animal Crossing came out and put like 300 hours in, which was worth it alone. Only thing I hate is that I can't play couch multiplayer with my girlfriend and use the TV, but still worth the money!

TBH the Lite is really great for my tiny asian paws.

I mean the joystick protection complaint can be very easily (and cheaply, depending on your choice) be "fixed" by using a carrier case. This becomes doubly attractive since when you see that most cases come with game card holders as well, and the ones licensed by Nintendo even come bundled with a screen protector.

great review, bought a switch lite recently mainly to play zelda to make my commutes to work more bearable and i’m really enjoying it so far, awesome value for money considering i’ve got a playstation for the tv it’s great to be able to play a game the scale of zelda in the palm of my hands

On the battery thing (I'm ridiculously ocd about lithium batteries) I would recommend always using a charger that's less output both wattage and amp wise. I just Googled "portable chargers safe for the Switch" and got a 30,000 mah battery pack. I still only use it when I have to because it won't slow the charge towards the end like the proprietary Nintendo charger does. Two major things with lithium batteries. Never (and I mean NEVER) let any device get under 30%. It's horrible for battery life and is akin to running your own body to the point of unhealthy exhaustion. I also have only charged my Switch Lite above 80ish percent once when I first bought it. So leaving it or your phone to charge all nigh is kind of a no no. Not nearly as bad for the battery as letting it get below 30%, but it will still shorten battery life. Lastly only charge in 20-35% increments letting it rest for 15 to 20 minutes between charging sessions. So again, if you have say 37% battery as you go to lay down for the night DON'T charge it from there overnight to 100%. It all seems like a bit much I know, but your Switch and any other lithium powered devices will thank you by lasting up to three times their "normal lifespan" with how most people charge and use them. Worse comes to worse you need to replace the battery every couple of years. However with using a charger that's over outputting watts and amps into the Switch you'll not only kill your battery slowly over time, you run the risk of burning up other components inside the Switch. Always remember, heat=BAD. Rule of thumb for myself is if your Switch gets hotter when charging it than when you play it, you're charging it wrong. Like I said, I'm a bit ocd about lithium batteries. But my 2 year old phone still lasts all day long from an 80% charge. And my Switch Lite hasn't lost but maybe 5% of it's capacity after well over a hundred "full" charges. Biggest things are never going below 30% and never using a charger that's above the Switches boxed chargers output.

Mans talking about cargo pants as if they aren’t worn by everyone

Good tattoo on your wrist, I have the same tattoo only mine I add the phrase "a man chooses, a slave obeys"

I got a switch lite and tried playing with a docked switch and i really prefer the lite version since I don’t crank my neck as much

I love your Bioshock tattoos!

No HD Rumble is a no go for me, despite the awesome form factor. Not being able to feel Mario’s jumps would be a bit of a bummer.

In my opinion. I definitely recommend this if you only got 200 bucks for a console. But. If you *REALLY* want the real switch, then save up a bit longer. Pretty much. If you have enough for the lite. Get it. Until you got 300 bucks. Then buy the regular Switch. And sell the lite if you want.

I love my Lite. It feels like your continuing with your Nintendo handhelds if you understand my meaning.

I am happy with my Nintendo Switch Lite Zacian edition provided by T-Mobile and it's everywhere I go 👍🤠👍

Be very weary. I've put about 2,000 hours on my switch lite, and the left stick has bottom drift. So just be ready to either send to it a place that does replacements, or replace it yourself.

Han Solo reviews Nintendo Switch Lite

*Provides personal experiences *Gives an Honest review with big pros and cons (no filter, no bs) All in all, i found a good review youtuber :D

How is it I just found your previous Nintendo Switch Lite videos recently, just subscribed and now this video comes out?! Love your vids, and neat hair cut ☺️

I’ve had the switch lite for about 1 1/2 years AND I DO NOT RECCOMEND THIRD PARTY CHARGERS because I use to use them all the time and now my average battery life is about 15-20 minutes AND DONT PUT YOUR SWICTH ON SLEEP MODE!!!!

I have both lite and switch. Some games are better on the big screen and some fits the relaxing experience of playing in bed. I recommend adding some grips to the back and thumbsticks.

This is perfect for me. I ordered the Switch Lite just for Nintendo exclusive games since I'm a PC gamer. This is perfect! Also, I have smaller hands so this is good, haha.

I know what you mean about buying another switch lite even though you have one. I want that switch purple or blue one. I don’t use my lite as much as my oled but i still keep it around because it feels and plays great

Reminds me of the gameboy advance 2001 as you mentioned, perfect color, bought one last Tuesday, now I’m ignoring my Original main switch lol! Mario strikers and tennis for days

I have an OLED that I upgraded from the launch model and my wife has a Lite. I want a Lite with the OLED screen, I love the form of the Lite so much.

I've just got my switch lite wouldn't go any othere way I love it take it everywhere with me I have the turquoise colour I'm gonna buy my mother one too

As an artist…that’s definitely blue

I am surprised this video doesn't have more likes and comments

Let me say this right now I have a regular switch and it fits completly fine in my pocket the light looks barley bigger than my phone so it would definetly fit.

The color is "BLURPLE"!🥳🥳🥳

honestly i find the original switch really uncomfortable since i have small hands so the smallness is really nice

Love every detail that you covered. Great video.
