Switch 2 is bigger and more powerful than the original Nintendo Switch.

Joy-Con 2 controllers also attach magnetically, unlike the original Joy-Con slide-and-lock rail system. The extra power and screen brightness reduces battery life compared to Nintendo Switch 1, which can last up to 9 hours vs 6 on this handheld console. Need help choosing a console?
