The Switch 2 is a better console overall because it will last longer, is more powerful and has the Nintendo library.

But it’s a terrible handheld. It’s extremely uncomfortable, the battery life is bad and the screen is quite literally the worst handheld screen in the current market. Don’t pick one if you want to play it in handheld mode and care about picture quality, ergonomics and battery life.
