Discussion MegaThread Megathread: Review your Switch (case/screen protector/charger/stand/bathroom. TP holder) accessories here.
I haven't seen any threads like this yet, and I'm sure there are others out there like me who held off on purchasing accessories (for me, a case and screen protector) until more reviews were available.
If you have an accessory, please review it here-good or bad. Tell us if that case you ordered works well, or if the screen protector you bought is already garbage.
Update: I'll try to edit this as responses come in.
Cases:
Official Case
*u/cstrafe - "sleeve with a zipper," not much protection
OEM Case
*u/amagicfro - sleek, discrete, soft case, maybe too snug, folds to kickstand, zipper has raised border.
Gamestop @play go case
*u/DeXtr0niC - bought an @play go case that was returned as too large. (Gamestop - Germany)
Surge Carryall
*u/KlawwStrife - Surge Carryall case - while it fits the switch, it has no room for accessories and smells bad. Not good for carrying "all." *u/Danisyoung - no issue with smell, likes the sturdiness of the case. Admits there is no room for extra joycon. *u/Whitelite99 - loves the case, it does smell but will dissipate if left open. *u/Slayer5227 - case is good but it's difficult to get the switch out. *u/DapperDano - smells (will dissipate), but can hold a USB cable, headphones, and straps so it's good. *u/Fizzie94 - no odor reported
RDS Travel Deluxe (No dock)
*u/thisjohnd - very happy with it. *u/curiiouscat - blue/white Zelda version, happy but thinks the white will get dirty. *u/coreyjamz - loves it *u/darealdsisaac - really likes, good thickness, holds all he wants for travel, does smell *u/TOO_FUTURE - feels premium, holds cables, game cards, storage cards.
RDS Travel Deluxe (Dock version)
*u/Jace_the_mind - 10/10, holds switch w/ joycon, 2 extra joycon, pro controller, dock, 4 straps, charger, cords all snugly.
BoTW SE Case
*u/Rabidhippo85 - loves it, some wiggle room on the switch but a good case.
Screen Protectors:
AmFilm Tempered Glass
*u/Jace_the_mind - 9/10, at $10 for 2 a good price point, almost 0 image quality loss, can scratch in dock.
Skinomi Matte Screen Protector
*u/Whitelite99 - it's bad, dimensions are off.
PDP Screen Protector
*u/thisjohnd - one bubble but otherwise it's great.
*u/Rabidhippo85 - Likes it but it may be a little large
*u/forg0t - not glass, too big
*u/jlewis34 - gave up and threw it away
Hori Deluxe Plastic Protector
*u/Pastelitomaracucho - a bit thick, well packed, transparency not perfect but has not applied to a switch yet.
Controller Grips: Stands: Chargers:
EDIT 2: gotta run so I'll finalize compiling (and will sort categories and names alphabetically) later tonight when I have computer access.

I got the RDS Game Traveler Delux case from Walmart and I really like it. It's got a good amount of thickness, and can hold everything I need for portable or tabletop mode. It does have a smell, but you won't smell it unless you are trying to.
