Nintendo Switch 2 is praised for its improved graphics, 120Hz framerate, larger screen, better joycons, and backward compatibility. Battery life is a common downside but overall performance and comfort are highly rated.

Great upgrade
I bought this in march and honestly worth every penny. Compared to the original switch the screen is bigger, it feels more sturdy and quality. The graphics are far better and the battery life is superior. It was worth the purchase just to play the new switch 2 exclusive games

Great product
Came in and got it straight away, no messing around and service was friendly and prompt Love the console, it is great handheld or docked, 120hz framerate is great and patched a lot of old games for the switch 1 to play smoother

Great Upgrade!
A great upgrade from the first Nintendo Switch, screen and quality looks amazing! Framerate is way better and the magnetic joy cons are far easier than the last. Best purchase of 2026 so far! 😂

Great Console great upgrade, nice large screen
Great council with a nice big screen definitely an upgrade from my previous switch. Ordered online picked up from Argos in Sainsbury’s really quick no hassle. Setting up the Switch was easy and all of my previous games work on it.

great console, slightly lacking in battery life
Bought to play pokopia and next year, pokemon wind/waves. great console, battery life is a bit short but the charging port on top allows for easy charging whilst playing so all good.

So worth it
Super happy with the product. I got it just to play Pokopia, and only had a Switch OLED. It seems to be really good, comfortable to hold. The screen is quick and clear. I love that there is a USBC port at the top to be able to charge it from the top as well as the bottom.

Zelda and variants are absolutely banging
Three weeks in and the Switch 2 proves to be a proper good console...we have additional gamer pads and subscription in place. Quality retro access to NES and SNES games from years gone by

Both the original switch and switch 2 connect to the tv using HDMI, so in that sense they are the same.
However there are some technical differences so the cables themselves are not interchangeable.
