NEWDERY External Battery Station for Nintendo Switch (6.2" LCD Model), 10000mAh Backup Charger Case Support PD Quick Charging with 2 Extra Game Card Slots Adjustable Kickstand for Nintendo Switch

You CANNOT use the charger that came with the switch, according to those who claim it isn't charging. It's not going to happen. Fortunately, I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 with USB Type C, which works perfectly and gives me a good 6-hour charge. This gives you an extra 8 hours of battery life. If you enjoy a heavy, bulky grip, this grip is ideal for you. It reminds me of when I was a kid and I had a GameGear.

This is a great grip that also doubles as a battery pack. The kickstand is far superior to the one included with the Switch. There is, however, no practical way to turn off the battery. A physical switch, rather than a push button, would be preferable. Even if the Switch is fully charged, it will request that the battery be turned on. When you press the power button to turn it off, it turns back on after a few minutes. When I pack it in a backpack, I'm concerned about the units staying on. As a result, I'm having to take away one star.

I really want to give it a 5, but there are two things that are preventing me from doing so. However, let us start with the positive. This is fantastic! The plastic has a nice velvety soft coating on it, making it very comfortable to hold. When I first looked at this, I was concerned about how well the switch would stay in place. That is not an issue at all, I am happy to report. The inside is felt lined for extra grip, and the top has a slight overhang to keep the switch secure. It's very firmly anchored in place, and removing it requires some force. br>br>Now for those two issues: the first, as others have mentioned, is heat. While using this, the switch does get a little warm. The external battery has vents that line up with the switch's intake vents, but it still isn't allowing enough air to pass through. Having said that, it never gets that hot. It was only when I removed the switch to place it in the dock that I realized it was slightly warm. It appears to get about as hot as when playing at 1080p docked. That, in my opinion, is insufficient grounds for a star to be taken away. NOTE: I have the second/newer switch model, which has a better processor. br>br>However, the second problem is starting to grate on my nerves. It is necessary to slide the switch straight up when removing it. This is the exact opposite of how you remove it from the case. Normally, you would pull the switch out of the front at the top end first, but this is a bad habit to get into because it will bend the usb connector. It would have been nice if the sides of the external battery wrapped around the controllers a little more to keep the switch from being pulled out from the front.

Both the Switch's battery and this battery pack case will be depleted in 15 hours. Triples the amount of time you can play!br>br>Secondary Charging: br>I bought it because I couldn't find an outlet while sitting on the couch. I've used it to play games while charging my phone at the same time. There's enough juice to charge my phone as well as play my Switch! br>br>Exercise: br>br>Case: br>br>Exercise br>The case is very sturdy, well-made, and has a nice soft feel to it. With the ergonomic grips behind the controllers now, my hands don't feel as cramped as they did before. br>br>Everyone's first accessory purchase should be this one! This is something I should have purchased years ago!.

I ordered this and it failed to charge my switch after a day, so they quickly sent me a replacement and I returned the defective one. I was skeptical that it would work, and I assumed it would fail just like the first. I waited to see if it worked before writing a review. It works great, and I no longer have to worry about charging my switch several times a day. br>br>UPDATE: After a few weeks, the replacement one stopped working. Same issue: the switch stops charging, but the case itself continues to charge. I believe they are either low-cost or defective charging ports.

Today is day one, so I'll update if anything changes, but so far everything is fine. br>br>This thing adds both comfort and weight; the battery pack isn't too heavy by itself, but when connected to the switch, it adds a significant amount of weight, which is to be expected given the size of the battery. br>br>The hand grips gave the controller a much-needed boost of bulk. It makes holding the console much more comfortable, but it does necessitate a longer thumb reach, so if you have short thumbs, this may not be the best option for you. br>br>The case has a velvety smooth texture that runs the length of it (on the back). If your hands are greasy or sweat easily, this could be a problem, but I believe the additional roundness of the grip area mitigates this. br>br>A soft, cloth-like texture covers the inside of the case, presumably to prevent scratching, but in my experience, it can catch small particles. It should be cleared out with some tape or a vigorous brushing with the hands. Finally, the power modes work almost exactly as they should. Tap once to disable fast charging and enable slow charging (I'm not sure why you'd want that). br>br>Tap again to enable fast charging. This doesn't seem to work for me, but it's simple to fix by turning it off, sliding it out slightly, and then sliding it back on. Finally, double-tap to completely turn off charging. br>br>Overall, for the price, this battery appears to be well made, sturdy, and an excellent addition to anyone who uses their switch in handheld mode on a regular basis.
