The full disclosure of Nintendo Switch 2 focused largely on all recent games that you can play. The hardware specifications were not of interest, but Nintendo abandoned a detailed list of what is inside Switch 2 on its website and Later he provided even more detailed technical specifications. Most of what we knew from the original film about the announcement, and some leaks turned out to be true: it is a larger, better manual console with a full board of improved equipment.
Here’s what we know now when it comes to Nintendo Switch 2.
According to the official specifications of the Nintendo system, the original base model of the Nintendo switch is about 4 inches height and 9.4 inches (with dinings attached). Switch 2 is slightly larger at a height of 6.5 inches and 10.7 inches in length (also with dinings included). The larger size makes switch 2 weighs about 1.18 pounds, which is slightly heavier than the original 0.88 pound switch. In the case of the next reference: it is slightly less than the weight of 1.5 pounds of steam deck.
The capacitive Switch 2 touch screen is 7.9 inches – larger than the original switch (6.2 inch), as well as the OLED switch (7 inches) – but returns to LCD.
The recent display also has a resolution of up to 1080p (from 720p) and supports the variable refresh rate (VRR) to 120 Hz. HDR10 support is also coming, but Nintendo has not specified any tiny details about the brightness of the screen, so it may not be as impressive as something like an OLED steam deck. And although technically it is not the function of the screen itself, the thinner frame should make it just feel Greater.

The recent Joy-Cons Switch 2 operate slightly differently than the original switch. They magnetically stick to the sides of the console and do not produce this satisfactory snap Like once. The original Joy-Cons weigh about 1.7 ounces (on the left) and 1.8 ounces (on the right), and the recent ones weigh about 2.3 ounces (on the left) and 2.4 ounces (on the right). This may be due to the fact that Joy-Cons Switch 2 have a mouse sensor that allows them to turn them aside and move, and a recent C button for GameChat. While Nintendo claims that Joy-Con 2 controllers do not contain joystick technology, “Controllers for Joy-Con 2 controllers have been redesigned and improved in such areas as durability,” says the company.
In addition to the mouse sensor, every Joy-Con 2 has a built-in accelerometer and gyroscope. Joy-Con 2 controllers have wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 3.0, and NFC wireless connectivity has the right connection.
Nintendo claims that Joy-Con 2 controllers have about 20 hours of battery life and require complete charging about 3.5 hours.
Switch 2 has 256 GB of flash memory, much more than 32 GB of the original switch.
If it sounds a bit tiny, you can still expand your memory using an SD card. The original switch was supported by microSDHC and MicroSDXC (UHS-I) cards to 2 TB, while Switch 2 supports up to 2 microSD Express cards that offer much faster reading speeds.
Switch 2 is powered by a “non -standard processor made by NVIDIA,” says Nintendo. According to Details leaked Collected from the console motherboard, apparently it is a non -standard Tegra T239 processor. This would cause the system to process the system on a par with the previous generation consoles, such as PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, according to analysts. But leaks suggest that Switch 2 will apply exceeding technology, which can escalate the visualizations of 720p resolution to 4K after task, using machine learning techniques.
In addition, apparently Switch 2 has 12 GB of RAM.

Switch 2 offers a port for gaming cartridges, two USB-C ports and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. The USB-C port at the bottom of the console is only used for charging and connecting with a dock. The extended microSD memory socket seems to be hidden under the stand of switch 2, like the original switch.

Switch 2 has a built -in microphone, which will be used primarily for the GameChat function similar to Discord. It has noise canceling, echo cancellation and automatic reinforcement control, so you don’t have to stir in the settings to pick everyone in the room.
The Switch 2 battery will last about 2 to 6.5 hours depending on the game you play. It’s actually a little less than Start switch models 1which can last from 2.6 to 6.5 hours and much less than updated models that last 4.5 to 9 hours. Blow the larger and better Switch 2 screen for charging it a little more often. Fortunately, it can be fully calculated in the same three hours in which it took the original consoles (in sleep mode).
Nintendo will also allow 2 switches owners to set the system battery charge to release “about 90%” to maintain the life of the system battery.
Switch 2 supports Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, which should accelerate games download if you have a mighty internet connection. It also means that sharing games in gamechat should also be functional. Alternatively, Dock Switch 2 has a built -in Ethernet wired port, unlike the original switch that required a completely separate adapter.

Dock Switch 2 looks very similar to the original switch, but it is slightly larger to match the size of the recent console. It is 4.5 inches high, 7.9 inches width and 2 -inch broad. On the back there are 2 USB ports, HDMI port and Ethernet port. And when you put your system into it, he will lead the video to 4K at 60 frames per second to the TV.
Switch 2 offers a pair New availability options They were not available on the original switch, including text size and speech text. You can also include speech in the text and speech text especially for GameChat. And just like the original switch, you can still renovate the controller buttons, change the display colors, enlarge on the screen and replace the sound from stereo into mono.
