This well built, vibrant little console is magnificent for the 16K price tag. I went for the yellow since Pokemon played a huge huge factor in my decision to purchase it. Pop two red joy-con grips on to the device and voila, Pikachu.
The screen may seem very small compared to the OG Switch but you don't really notice much of a difference once you are neck deep into Zelda. I owned the original Switch and this is a much better option if you do not game on your TV. While not being able to connect to a second bigger screen does take away from the whole "switch" branding, the decreased weight coupled with a slightly sharper/brighter screen and better battery life makes it all that more enjoyable and a console worthy of your money.
Scouring through all the reviews online, you might have come across one of the negatives of the lite being the HD Rumble feature or the absence thereof. For those who are not familiar with the term, it is basically a vibration motor that adds extra feel and experience to the gameplay. But honestly, unless you have experienced the feature on the bigger older model, you won't miss it.
I have been using the product for almost 2-3 months now and have not experienced any issues with the joy-con. While there are reports online of some units experiencing the same, its not widespread (at least not yet). As to how it can be fixed, Nintendo does offer free repair (some articles mention that warranty slip is not even needed). But this does require you to ship the device to Nintendo and might take several weeks to be fixed. DIY solutions exist obviously (Youtube. Yes.) but all solutions involve taking apart the device and proceeding to fix the issue. Risky.
It would be really unfortunate to drift into such an issue (excuse the pun), but until then, I shall enjoy gaming on this device with the same enthusiasm and happiness I had when I bought my first game boy advance.
Yes the games are expensive with all the first-party (that means Nintendo-made) titles being well around 4 thousand rupees. Yes online save and multiplayer features require you to dish out another 2K for an year long membership. And yes even the cases are expensive since many have not been imported yet to India. But If you love Nintendo and their games (Zelda won best game of the year for a reason), saving up every month just to buy one just takes you back to your childhood days and makes it that much sweeter when you actually end up buying a copy.
Overall, this is a truly great console that is just a bigger battery and an AMOLED/OLED screen away from being one the best of all time. Consider this as an investment (if you mind ignoring the possibility of the drift issue). I would definitely recommend this to anyone considering to buy one. As long as the price is around 16-17K.
Play on my friends. Play on!

Great entertainment device, good quality build, Love it
Reviewed in India on 8 August 2021
Now that I got my Switch Lite, much like other awesome/cool things you finally get Im wondering why didnt I get this way earlier! It is built with good quality, although the plastic body feels a bit flimsy sometimes. Fits in hands perfectly, very comfortable, screen even though its not oled its great.The packaging that it arrived in could be better. And the adapter that comes with it has American style plug, so you might need an attachment with round wall plug. Seller should have mentioned that.That is why I am giving the SELLER 3 stars but the product itself is 5 star two thumbs up amazing!No manual is provided either, which I find rather odd.And Im reading about people complaining about it being "only" $200 in US...umm have you forgotten about salex tax?? it ends up being $220ish, which right now would be 16k. Its 18.5k in India (during sale events) so not bad at all.Buy it if you can, you'll enjoy it thoroughly and not regret it.

Its a bit too overpriced, but its a product thats definitely worth it not because of how cool the device itself is, but also the exclusives like zelda, fire emblem, mario, etc....
The experience and ergonomics is something that mobile phone gaming cant reach it yet, hence also making this product a one of a kind.
