Portability and functionality
Portability Pros 1. Compact & Lightweight The Switch Lite is noticeably smaller and lighter than the standard Switch. That makes it easier to slip into a small bag, backpack, or even a larger jacket pocket. Many reviewers call it “an absolutely killer portable machine.” Because there are no detachable Joy-Cons, there’s no risk of losing parts in transit, and the unit feels more robust and unified. 2. Longer or competitive battery life for handheld use Depending on the model and what game you’re running, the battery life is typically in the 3 to 7 hours range. For many handheld sessions (commutes, flights, breaks), that’s quite acceptable. In side-by-side tests, the Lite tends to last a bit more than the “original” Switch in pure handheld mode. 3. Durability & grip Because there’s no “play stand” or detachable parts, the body has less wiggle or flex. The finish is often praised as having a better matte grip than the original Switch, making it feel secure in hand. 4. Always ready for handheld mode You don’t need to attach or detach anything. For someone who mainly plays on the go, that simplicity is a big plus. Delivery was on time and the guy called me before just as i instructed

Hi Nes,
You can expand the storage on the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Coral using a microSDHC or microSDXC up to 2TB, however this does not come with a memory card.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hello Sammy,
The Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console does support 5GHz Wi-Fi. It is compatible with both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, using the 802.11ac wireless standard.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello there.
The supplier has confirmed the following for the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Blue
When synchronizing with another Switch Lite, both players need to have the game downloaded on their respective consoles. The game does not synch over automatically; each player must download it separately. This is because the game is linked to the individual Nintendo account on each console, and the game must be downloaded to access it.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi Lucifer,
You do not need WiFi to play games on the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Turquoise.
If you're planning to just play offline games that are already installed, you're good without WiFi. But for anything involving downloads or online features, you’ll need a WiFi connection.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi Snails.
Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Coral:
Having checked, the Switch Lite does not have a headphone socket, to plug headphones into.
Thank you for using Q and A.
Hello Josh,
I can advise the following for the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Blue:
Any game that supports Handheld mode will work with the Switch Lite. Games that require use of motion that the JoyCons offer won't be able to be played, this is very limited. The ones you have stated are all playable.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello FC,
I can confirm that the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console has 32GB of internal storage, some of which is used by the main console software. You can expand the storage using a microSDHC or microSDXC up to 2TB.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Mary,
Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Blue

Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Stitch,
I can advise the following for the Nintendo Switch Lite Handheld Console - Blue:
This is indeed a Blue as stated.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Chanell
The majority of online multiplayer games can be played on the Nintendo Switch Lite as they usually just require each player to have their own screen or console anyway. Many local multiplayer titles can also be played on the Nintendo Switch Lite though the purchase of a new controller will be required for each additional player as, unlike the main Nintendo Switch console, the Joy-Con Controllers on the Lite are built into the device and cannot be removed.
Thanks for using Q&A.
