The EU's new Nintendo Switch 2 model teardown confirms smaller battery, slightly heavier console

Comments

1. Jonasreyes: nice to see people actually opening it up - that's more like a real teardown
2. Irisholt: sold it as 'minor tweaks' but that's an entire new board layout
3. Umbra Kite: they're really getting desperate for content if they're already tearing it apart weeks in
4. Ravibrar: smaller battery is no surprise at all. always felt like it was overkill in the original anyway
5. Falkethan: they finally shrunk it down a bit but what's with the weight increase?
6. Theo Grant: smaller battery is probably where they really trimmed costs
7. Kai: smaller battery doesn't sound like a major upgrade to me – did they at least make it easier to swap out?
8. Mirage Talon: they're taking it apart already, what do you want to know exactly?
9. Ashen Vector: the weight difference might be negligible but it's good they're making some adjustments under the hood even if it is the new model
