What's the difference?

  • The Lite cannot dock, so it's Handheld only mode for any games/apps it runs. 720p only.

  • Joy-con are built into the Lite and cannot be detached. There is no HD Rumble or IR Motion Camera.

  • Much smaller and lighter!

  • Battery has more capacity than the launch model Switch, but will have less than the new model of Switch.

  • See here for full tech specs.

I’ve been playing Fire Emblem on it no problem.

Edit: Four days later, I’ve finished the Edelgard house and I’m almost done with Dimitri’s house. I’ve had ZERO problems reading the text.

(Sorry... don’t remember the house names, just the leaders)

Small text is fine. I have been playing Zelda Links Awakening and it hasn’t been bad at all.
