After Nintendo announced its new model, namely Nintendo Switch Lite, it attracted a lot of attention. This model is lightweight and has an integrated design. However, the product will be launched on September 20, and the media has been banned since receiving the review, making it difficult for everyone to know more details. Today, Nintendo lifted the ban on new product reviews, and in an instant all the media that had already experienced it spoke freely. So is this new game console worth it?
First of all, what is the difference between him and the original NS? The screen is reduced to 5.5 inches and an integrated design, which has been known a long time ago. The most important thing is that with such a compact design, the game time of Nintendo Switch Lite is actually slightly longer than the original NS. This is mainly because the customized NVIDIA Tegra X1 has been upgraded from 20nm to 16nm, and the process improvement reduces heat generation and power consumption. Nintendo later released the long battery life version of the big Switch, which is also based on this change.
Another change is the spray paint treatment on the surface. The Nintendo Switch Lite uses new spray paint, and the skin-like material makes the grip more comfortable, and it directly improves the grip experience by improving the surface texture. In this regard, it performs better than the big NS. In addition, the improved cross key also brings a better operating experience. The reason why the big NS does not use the cross key is also very simple. Its design needs to be considered in multiplayer games, while the Nintendo Switch Lite does not need to be considered.
After saying this, it is time to turn the tables because it is not good in other aspects. Better portability? In fact, it only slightly reduced the screen size by a circle, resulting in a slight reduction in size and weight, and coupled with the integrated design, the body is more solid. But the entire body size is still very large. It can be said that you can carry this. The large NS can actually carry it. The difference between the two is not large, so the advantage of better portability does not exist.
As for the most criticized problem of poor display quality on Nintendo NS, it is very certain that there is no improvement on Nintendo Switch Lite. It still has a complete fit for the screen, still has a very small viewing angle, and still has a very poor color performance, and even the automatic brightness adjustment has been castrated. Now, the business of replacing the screen for Nintendo Switch has been derived. It is not difficult to expect that the same business will appear after the Nintendo Switch Lite is launched. In addition, there is little hope for the rocker drift problem to improve on the new phone, although Nintendo did re-engineer the structural design.
So what does this Nintendo Switch Lite bring? In fact, there is only a slightly better single-player gaming experience, mainly because the texture and directional key design have changed, other aspects are lackluster, the portability has not changed qualitatively, and the new version of NS has also extended the battery life. In this case, buying a Nintendo Switch Lite means sacrificing multiplayer games and the ability to connect to the TV. I believe you will have an answer in your mind whether it is worth it. Anyway, this new product doesn't look like a good choice.
