iFixit's teardown of the Nintendo Switch 2 highlights significant challenges in repairability, granting it a score of three out of ten. This marks a decline from the original Switch's score. Key factors affecting this score include the soldering of vital components like charge ports and the difficulty in removing the battery, which is secured with aggressive adhesive. The lack of availability of repair parts from Nintendo further complicates any potential DIY fixes, underscoring the growing concern around the right to repair legislation and consumer rights.
The Nintendo Switch 2 received a repairability score of just three out of 10 due to hard-to-repair components and limited availability of OEM parts.
Major design flaws like soldered components and strong adhesives make the Switch 2 significantly harder to repair than its predecessor, limiting repair options for consumers.
