Customer Ratings & Reviews

I gifted this to my significant other and it is perfect for playing cozy games together on the couch, it has been used almost every night since we bought it! The storage isn’t great but micro SD cards are not very expensive. It is the perfect size for travel and it feels very nice and durable.

Going on vacation? If your taking the family You might need to stop by Best Buy for something to keep the kids busy - like the Nintendo Switch Lite! Lightweight and small size makes the Switch Lite the easiest way to play on-the-go. Shhhh! Keep it a secret while you play your favorite Nintendo Switch games in this inconspicuous dark grey color option and without lugging the size of the original. I always refer to the Lite when we I am out of the house; With its smaller size and more portable than the original - at nearly half the weight - makes carrying everything else so much easier. It’s the first thing I reach for before heading out. Plus the thing just feels right in the hands. If you don’t have one, get one! There’s was no question whether to buy it; we’ll worth it.

I purchased a Nintendo switch when it came out and unfortunately it bricked on me near the start of Covid19, however I did not want to purchase another one for the hope of getting it fixed later on. When I finally gave in to buying the switch lite it was sold out everywhere, so I kept checking back and finally it was restocked and bought it! I'm loving it so far, I have small hands so holding it feels much better than the regular switch since it's a bit bigger. Funny thing was that my regular switch turned back on the day I received the switch lite lol so now I have two, but for now I've been using the lite because it feels much better in my opinion. If you don't ever want to play on the tv then this switch is for you.

This new switch lite is an amazing new console Perfect for gaming on the go. slimmer, less expensive version of the standard Switch and one of the best handheld game systems to date.

Great product for the price. While it does lack TV connectivity and a kickstand, the size and weight make it easier to hold for longer periods of time without fatigue setting in.

Bought this my Gf as she found the original switch too big. And this one is perfect. I’m even a little envious. It’s difficult to explain but it genuinely feels better to hold. The textured plastic used, the buttons all make it feel sturdier but I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise considering the joy-cons aren’t removable. The smaller screen isn’t an issue, and I would highly recommend this one for gamers with small hands. It has the same performance tech as the other switches just without the ability to switch to a TV. That said, if you really need the dock/TV playability, then go for the OLED or original. Great purchase, recommend!

Purchase this device for my parents during the Animal Crossing hype. Holds the charge well. It’s a great price compared to the larger regular switch. Compact and light.

I’m really loving this. It’s my first console/handheld ever. I really debating on getting the light over the OLED but reasoned I wanted something that was very light and compact. Because this the only system I’ve ever had I didn’t really see a huge difference in screen quality between the others. I like how this fits in my hands and how relatively compact without sacrificing usability. I love the blue color and the matte feel of the system. I will say the joycon button get discolored quickly no matter how clean and moisturizer free you keep your hands. After about a week of using I eventually but some button covers so I wouldn’t make it worse. Now I’m not a gamer by any stretch of the imagination but I like playing “cozy” game and I might play in 15 minute intervals. I bought this because I wasn’t that impressed with games on my iPhone and this way I don’t have to constantly keep charging my phone. This is perfect for adults looking to get into video games for the first time without spending over $400.

I love the size of the switch lite. It doesn’t feel too big and is the perfect size for me. The screen size isn’t too far off from the Switch. I absolutely love the color! I love that it is touch screen and love that it displays all of your games on the home screen. The only con I have about this is the device gets hot when it is being used for a while but it is understandable since it’s a gaming console

I love this switch. I bought 1 each for my 2 daughters. It’s perfect size for them. Lightweight, long lasting battery and it’s just great to have. It’s definitely keeping them occupied during this pandemic. Id recommend getting one and setting up the parental control app to see their activity on it.

We were lucky enough to snag one of these before the global shut down. I am so glad we were too! Being stuck at home can become frustrating and boring, but with the help of the switch lite and the assortment of games that are offered it was just the kind of quick distraction we were looking for. Perfect size for large or small hands, weighs next to nothing and the interface is super accommodating to all types of gamers. The price point is also pretty decent.

SO HAPPY I DIDNT WAIT FOR THE SWITCH TO BE IN STOCK AND GETTING THE SWITCH LITE INSTEAD! bought the Comfort Grip for it as well for easier holding. I prefer it with it. it’s super lightweight. Perfect size for even little hands for kids. All around great product. i’ve played it for over 200 hours in the couple weeks i’ve had it. Thank you Nintendo. Thank you Best Buy for being awesome for making pick up easy, contactless, and super fast!

husband and I purchased the Switch for our daughters 2 almost 3 yrs ago but this Switch Lite I purchased just for me, mine oh mine. My teen daughters call me a big kid, oh well. I love it small enough to fit in my purchase & lite weight for when we get freed from Quarantine I can take it with me & play on lunch breaks & places I have to wait.

I wanted to pick up a Lite even though I owned a full Switch, hoping it would be a bit more portable. Thankfully it is! Even with a small case (I use a TomTom case), it’s much smaller. What’s most noticeable is how much lighter it is. The screen is smaller obviously and the buttons are different than Joy-Cons (they’re squishy not clicky) so keep that in mind.

I got this switch lite for my daughter as a graduation present and she loves it! The size, the color, the game selection is great for her! She really loves it! For kids it’s $100 less than the regular one that we have at hone and it’s more portable! easy recommendation for parents with a switch in their house already! We also got clubhouse games with it which is perfect!

Nice sized handheld-only console to play the latest Nintendo games. The blue color I purchased is very reminiscent of the blue GameBoy Advance, contrasts well with the white buttons.

Bought 2 of these in February 2023. One was faulty and would not hold a charge long. I did the repair through Nintendo which was still covered under warranty. Other than that my nephews love them and they fit better in the hand of children than the full size or oled switch. Game selection is good for younger audiences and battery life is decent.

I highly recommend this even if you're just a casual gamer like me. I never got to own my own gaming system before and this one is so user friendly! It's size and weight are perfect and I love the color, too :)

I was contemplating wether to purchase the bigger watch console or this one. But I made a good choice. It’s not heavy on the hands, the graphics are amazing and it’s overall really fun. I’m sad that it can’t connect to the tv but it doesn’t really matter. This console is worth it and the colors are so cute. I recommend this to anyone
