Switch 2 bad battery life confirmed

[deleted fren]

Officially been confirmed to have a 2-6 hour battery life. Switch 1 was 2-9 in later models. Switch 1 only lasts longer while playing less impressive games such as indies or retro ports. It lasts around 4 hours playing larger titles. So what this probably means is switch 2 will last around 2-3 hours on more impressive games, and 6 on less impressive ones. Worse yet, is that since switch 1 games will be emulated, the process will likely be just as consuming of the systems power and have a worse battery life while running old switch games.

This is pathetic they wouldn't want to spend few million on porting those games on new engine

And now think how fast the battery would degrade so that soys will buy another because the world removed replaceable batteries (to allegedly protect the environment)

Doesn’t the Xbox series x run the Xbox 360 games on the Xbox 360 engine and doesn’t utilized the series x power . So what’s the issue with them doing it here ?

I don't even care about the switch being portable, i would prefer it being smaller and cheaper, or stronger.
