Pros:
- Hard plastic case that holds its shape
- Rubber injection molding for additional protection on the outside of the case
- Form fitting molding to caress the contours of the buttons, joysticks, and curves.
- Slide latch that keeps the case closed, but won't accidentally open
- Storage for switch game cartridges
- Looks and feels great, and enforces the feeling of security knowing your switch will still be fine wherever your travels go
- Keeps the dust and lint from getting on the switch
Cons:
- Besides the switch and a handful of games, nothing else goes in the case. I would worry about carrying additional Micro SD cards unless they are in a case the size of a game cartridge, they may fall out accidentally.
- The case is form fitting so no extra or bulky cases on your switch will fit in the case. Slim switch covers may be fine
I travel to work and go camping with my switch and this case has protected my switch for the past year. In my mind the case has paid for itself in the protection it provides.
The only part that I feel might be a weakness is the cartridge holder; it is made of a flexible vinyl-like material. While mine hasn't done so yet, I feel this may potentially stretch out and not be able to hold the cartridges as well. However, as I said, I haven't had that issue come up; it's just nitpicky conjecture.
I would highly recommend this case to anyone wanting to protect their Nintendo Switch, and I feel that it is definitely worth its cost and more.
in terms of protection:
Pro: its a 20/10 cause of the outer shell and soft foam holding it inside. You can feel how secure it will be so you can rest assure.
Con: joy sticks are pressured a lil. I put the switch in the case for 40 mins and there were marks of the joy sticks making some pressure to the foam holes. I know it will be secure but i dont know it will be damaged or not.
(I attached images of this. The last ones)
In terms of look
Pro: it looks sleek with the black. I even added a sticker on the back. Marking my territory if you may.
Con: i know that if i drop it, it’ll end up with some scratches but fin with me. Doing its job
I added some games on the game slots for 2-5 mins and it was already stretching to size. It was hard putting it on the first time so i guess its for the best for it to be stretched a lil. Dont thinks its gonna pop out anytime soon.
Overall: I like it but dont love it but i kinda do. Kinda disappointed on the joy sticks being pushed in a little but not a mayor issue if you push the foam in with your finger for a lil while to make space. If it becomes a mayor issues in the future, i might cut it out. (Mod it if u will😏)

Non è così ingombrante. Ma se pensate che lo sia io preferisco che la switch sia ben protetta. Spedizione Prime arrivata in anticipo di qualche giorno. Bella robusta!
NE CONSIGLIO L'ACQUISTO. Apertura con tasto slide
Reviewed in India on February 4, 2020
Die Switch passt perfekt in die ausgelassenen Kuhlen, Spiele können sicher mit transportiert werden, die Box springt nicht auf, wenn sie zu Boden fällt (ca 1.20m, also "it mir aus der and gerutsct" simulliert).
Sie ist in der Tasche natürlich sehr klobig und durch den Industrial-/Militarylook nicht besonders hübsch, aber das braucht sie auch nicht zu sein.
Le rangement est aisé et bien conçu avec les espace rangements prévus pour y mettre ses jeux (8 au total).
Conclusion : étui bien conçu et semble bien costaud !
