There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
First, my kickstand doesn't ever just pop off unless there is a good amount of force applied.
Secondly, another review says the charging port is blocked when the joycons are on. That is because he has joycon covers on.
It does take a while to charge but I don't mind.
People, keep in mind that this is a travel accessory. It's not meant to be kept on 24/7. So there's no complaint about why it needs to fit in the dock with it on.
If you are out a lot or travel a lot this is a great investment. I love mine and it does a great job of what it's supposed to do.
It's sleek, has a little weight but nothing extreme and works great.
I'd recommend this
But here are some cons:
- Kickstand doesn't want to stay close. The closing mechanism is pretty bad. It also look flimsy, but still way better than the built-in kick stand, which is horrible.
- Does add weight, you won't feel it at first but eventually you will and you'll start resting it on your lap more without realizing it.
- Would love to have the battery charge the switch without having to press a button. I know most battery cases do this, but this just adds one more thing to remember, and my 4 year old won't and complain that the switch is dead.
- It's undockable. One of the greatest things about the switch is the ability to quickly switch between mobile play and TV-console play. This takes that away completely. You must remove the battery pack to dock the switch. This can easily be solved if they made a TV dock that is compatible with this case. But I doubt the USB-C port on the side of battery will pass along the TV signal. Also since it's on the side, it won't be a simple drop-in mechanism.
- The opening for the cartridge hatch is also pretty tight so it s bit harder to swap cartridge.
- Not it's fault, but my switch no longer fits in my travel case.
This all I have after a day with it. It sounds a lot like nitpicking, but the fact that still gave it a 4 star shows I much I still like it, because, again, it does exactly what it says it would.
One cool thing this case does is that it allows non-standard cables. I use these magnetic USB cables (kinda like the Apple Mag-Safe). These don't seem to work when I plug it straight into the Switch even with Adaptive Fast-Charge adapter. But when I plug into the battery case, it charges both just fine which is really nice.
I'll update if I find anything else worth noting.
• It takes over two hours of constant use to deplete the battery following a full charge.
• The unit is structurally sound (save for the kickstand, see below). Supports the weight of itself and the console. Even the detachable cover isn't flimsy.
• Its interface follows the K.I.S.S. principle sensibly. One button is all it needs: Long press it to toggle the unit on and off, or short press it to view the current battery level on the four LEDs.
• It isn't uncomfortable to use.
• The heat it generates throughout charging and discharging is more than acceptable.
Cons:
• The plastic housing's abrasion resistance could be better.
• The kickstand is weak, and the design of its latching and hinging methods (mostly the latter) is subpar. Yes, it does support the combined weight of the rest of the unit and a console, but also feels like it's one accident away from snapping in half.
• Charging is limited strictly to 5V⎓1.5A (as per listed product specifications, and also confirmed through testing because I'm having fun using my new USB tester on various stuff - see attached photos).
Other Thoughts:
• To Nyko: Consider implementing support for an additional higher power input level (e.g. 9V⎓2A) alongside 5V⎓1.5A in either a future hardware revision or firmware update (surely whatever USB-C controller you're putting in these supports PD contract negotiation?). You wouldn't even need to change the cable bundled with these as a result of doing so.
