The console itself has a larger 7.9-inch screen than its predecessor, with a better resolution (1080p as opposed to 720p on the Switch), HDR compatibility, and a refresh rate of up to 120 frames per second.

Smaller adjustments, like bigger buttons and control sticks, will draw notice. More intriguing, though, is that in compatible games, both controls may be used as a mouse, just like on a PC.

Despite Nintendo's claims that its 3D audio technology will produce a surround sound experience, this is not likely to be the feature that convinces consumers to purchase the device.

Since Nintendo has always been frugal with internal storage, 256GB is a significant improvement. The new hardware component for the Switch 2 is the C button on the switch controller. It seems to assist in managing a voice chat function that is integrated into the system.

Nintendo promises that their technology will isolate your speech regardless of background noise. Players appear at the bottom of the screen, resembling Zoom or Teams, complete with a somewhat low frame rate screen share.
