To me, it\u2019s freeing. Sure, it can take away from the slick design. But using a case relieves me of the worry that the console will accumulate tons of little scratches, or worse. I\u2019ve tested several types of cases on the Nintendo Switch 2 since it launched in in 2025, including flimsy shells that snap or slide onto the Switch 2 to provide a simple, aesthetically pleasing barrier from scratches to the console and its Joy-Cons. I\u2019ve also tested carrying cases that protect the console when it isn\u2019t in use.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">It didn\u2019t take long for me to find one that I think is the best, but that hasn\u2019t stopped me from trying new options from brands that are familiar, as well as from companies that aren\u2019t household names. There\u2019s something for everyone \u2014 and every budget \u2014 below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">In terms of what\u2019s coming up, we\u2019re expecting to get in Mechanism\u2019s Basecase for consideration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--accordion _6jkyd90\">\n<h2 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _6jkyd91\">What I\u2019m looking for<\/h2>\n<section class=\"_6jkyd92\"><button id=\"accordion-button-0\" class=\"_6jkyd94\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"accordion-content-0\"><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _6jkyd93\">How we test Nintendo Switch 2 cases<\/h3>\n<p><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"\" width=\"29\" height=\"30\" viewbox=\"0 0 29 30\" fill=\"currentColor\"><title>Collapse<\/title><line x1=\"4\" y1=\"14.4805\" x2=\"26\" y2=\"14.4805\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"4\"\/><\/svg><\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/p>\n<div id=\"accordion-content-0\" class=\"_6jkyd97 _6jkyd98\" style=\"height:auto\" data-testid=\"accordion-content\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-button-0\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _6jkyd95 _1xwtict1\">We use each Switch 2 case as it was designed to be used.

Others block the kickstand, and\/or prevent the console from fitting into its dock for playing on a TV. Compromises are fine as long as you know what they are beforehand. I think most people want a case that doesn\u2019t block the Switch 2\u2019s unique features, so I\u2019ve focused mostly on picks that retain them, except where noted otherwise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">I just listed my high standards for form-fitting cases made to fit the Switch 2 while it\u2019s in use. However, the bar for carrying cases is lower. They just need to protect the console and, ideally, provide some extra value, like a pocket for cables, cartridge storage, or ideally both.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">As for my favorite case, I didn\u2019t want to make any major compromises; I wanted one that\u2019s just as good for handheld mode as when docked, which is why I think the Dbrand Killswitch is the best model overall. I published a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/686719\/dbrand-killswitch-switch-2-case-review\">full review of the Killswitch<\/a>, but the skinny is that while it\u2019s perhaps more

The only downside is that it leaves your Switch 2\u2019s screen exposed instead of concealed by the dock\u2019s plastic wall. It\u2019s a little clunky, but I\u2019m willing to forgive it because it allows the Switch 2 to retain its docking functionality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1o279nj1 _1o279nj0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div>\n<section tabindex=\"-1\" aria-label=\"carousel\" class=\"duet--article--gallery _1ymtmqpj _1etxtj10\">\n<p><strong class=\"_1etxtj1e\">1<!-- -->\/<!-- -->5<\/strong><span class=\"duet--media--caption inline _1etxtj1k qama0i0\"><cite class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1xwtict2 qama0i5\">Photo: Cameron Faulkner \/ The Verge<\/cite><\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The tier I recommend for most Switch 2 players (especially those who will often throw their console into a bag) is the $79.85 \u201cTravel\u201d tier, which includes a semi-transparent cover that protects the front of your console when you aren\u2019t using it. The cover fits around the front of your Killswitch-equipped console, securing around the back with a tough bungee cord latch. This tier also includes a pair of analog stick grips and a tray that holds 10 Switch cartridges and fits neatly within the travel cover.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">When this guide was first published, Dbrand was in the midst of updating its Killswitch so that it wouldn\u2019t allow the Joy-Con 2s\u2019 magnets to break away without you pressing their magnet-releasing buttons. In other words, if you held your Killswitch-equipped Switch 2 parallel to the ground solely by either of the Joy-Con 2 controllers and give it a shake, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/693121\/dbrand-switch-2-killswitch-joy-con-case-replacement-detachment\">entire console portion was likely to detach<\/a>, potentially causing serious damage to the console. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/704767\/dbrand-switch-2-killswitch-joy-con-lock-grip-detachment-fixed\">Dbrand redesigned the Joy-Con 2 grips<\/a> to fix the issue, and previous buyers can request a replacement free of charge. Future buyers will receive the Killswitch with the updated, improved grips. We\u2019ve received the tweaked pieces and can confirm that they fix the issue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div

Split Protective Case<\/strong> is an affordable alternative to Dbrand\u2019s Killswitch, costing $29.99 but with many of the same characteristics. It includes two Joy-Con 2 grips that let you detach them from the system at will, and a transparent shell to clip around the back and the top and bottom edges of the Switch 2. Unlike the Killswitch, however, the Jsaux shell is so thin that the console can still fit into the dock. It also comes with a hard front cover that protect the screen during transit (or just for safekeeping), and it has storage for 10 Switch cartridges on its underside.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">I\u2019ve got minor qualms with Jsaux\u2019s case, which I can overlook given its low price (and may not be an issue for you, anyway); the Joy-Con 2 grips are smaller, and don\u2019t add as much bulk or grip as Dbrand\u2019s Killswitch, but they\u2019re still serviceable. Also, its build quality isn\u2019t as good (for instance, on my review unit, there was a little bit of warped plastic that looks like a raised eyebrow near the power and volume buttons, though it\u2019s hard to say if this affects multiple units).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Lastly, the design of its Joy-Con 2 grips exhibit the same edge case issue that Dbrand\u2019s model initially faced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/704767\/dbrand-switch-2-killswitch-joy-con-lock-grip-detachment-fixed\">before it issued a free fix to all owners<\/a>. If you hold the Switch 2 by either Joy-Con and shake the console\u2019s full weight downward, the force may be enough to completely detach it, sending the console down to the ground. In my testing, it was <em>really <\/em>difficult to get the Switch 2 to fall, so this hopefully shouldn\u2019t impact many people, but it\u2019s worth mentioning nevertheless.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div

the <strong>ModCase<\/strong> from Jsaux. The foundation of the accessory pack is the plastic and silicone case that the console fits into (you can\u2019t remove the Joy-Con or use the kickstand once it\u2019s inside), which adds bulkier grips that make it more comfortable to hold. There\u2019s a small section on the rear of the case that juts out, and that\u2019s where each of its \u201cmods\u201d can be attached.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The basic $29.99 kit includes just a couple of basics: a kickstand (which works better on tables than laps) and a watch-like strap for holding a power bank during charging. The $59.99 Ultimate kit that Jsaux sent for testing includes those plus several other extras. You get a face plate for the console to protect its screen while not in use, as well as an accessory with a magnet to let you attach, say, your iPhone so you can view it while you play games. Lastly, it includes a USB-C dock extender with a silicone stand. It\u2019s like a dock for your dock, for use when the ModCase is installed. It looks more cumbersome than Dbrand\u2019s also-clumsy-looking solution included with the Killswitch. But, hey, it all works as intended performance-wise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p><h2 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">The best carrying

FancyCase Slim case<\/strong> has recently become my favorite Switch 2 zip-up case. Starting at around $33 and going up to $39 depending on the style that suits you best, it\u2019s not the most affordable option. But it\u2019s worth the cost if you want better protection than either the PowerA or Belkin cases below can provide. It has less give in its middle section by comparison. Another thing that sets it apart are the bulbous sections on the outer cover, which offer more vertical clearance above the Joy-Con 2\u2019s analog sticks, ensuring they don\u2019t get pressed while your console\u2019s inside. Oh, and it includes color options that look like ice cream sandwiches.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The FancyCase Slim case is the best option I\u2019ve tried not just for durability but also for a dash of style. That said, it\u2019s short on other perks to justify the price. While Belkin\u2019s Switch 2 carrying case features a pocket for storing microSD Express cards, a cable, or any other small trinket like an AirTag to track its location, the only thing inside of this one is a soft screen-protecting flap that can hold 12 Switch cartridges on the other side.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1o279nj1 _1o279nj0

willing to spend $100 for a carrying case, the <strong>Charging Case Pro from Belkin<\/strong> delivers features that you won\u2019t find in any other model. It improves on last year\u2019s $70 case (mentioned below) with a redesigned 10,000mAh battery that doubles as a stand for the console. Not only can the battery be removed, but it now has a screen that shows the remaining charge and a USB-C port that\u2019s easier to access. Despite the high price, this is a great protective case that builds on what makes the cheaper models good picks, too, with 12 cartridge slots, a small pocket for a Bluetooth tracker, and a slick design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1o279nj1 _1o279nj0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div class=\"_18t3ez01\">\n<div class=\"duet--article--product-card

cases, WaterField Designs has been making tweaks to its beloved, but pricey <strong>CitySlicker case<\/strong> for every major handheld to come along. For fans of the case, or those who are looking for a more premium option, the $129 Switch 2 version doesn\u2019t change what isn\u2019t broken. The City Slicker hugs the console\u2019s curves closely enough to ensure a snug fit with a fleece interior, flanked by two pockets for cables and small accessories &#8212; one in front of where the Switch 2 sits, and one behind it. There\u2019s a larger zip-up mesh pocket on its back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">High-quality materials set this case apart from the others on this list, and unsurprisingly are what drives up the cost. It features leather on the flap covering the system and around the front of the case. For the secondary material, you have the option of waxed canvas or ballistic nylon. If you want your Switch 2 to sleep in style, this would make for a great gift to yourself or to another game. However, the City Slicker likely won\u2019t protect your console as much as a tougher zip-up or cover case can. Not to mention, you may prefer a case with more cartridge slots than the five that are punched out of this case\u2019s luxe leather.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement

A\u2019s slim zip-up case <\/strong>for the Switch 2 is a simple and inexpensive way to keep your console safe when you aren\u2019t using it.

href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/680463\/belkin-nintendo-switch-2-charging-case-battery\">Belkin\u2019s slim case<\/a><\/strong> is better-looking than PowerA\u2019s and is made with better materials. It has a carrying strap, a large mesh pocket, and a secret compartment for an Apple AirTag or similar Bluetooth tracker, all of which the PowerA case lacks. Belkin\u2019s case can carry 12 cartridges, and it\u2019s only slightly thicker than the PowerA case, likely to compensate for whatever cables or small gizmos you might stuff into its pocket. It features deep grooves to fit the Joy-Con 2\u2019s triggers, and its outer shell it tough enough to prevent most accidental presses on the joysticks. It comes in dark gray, cream, and a fun green shade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">Belkin sells a <a href=\"http:\/\/amazon.com\/Belkin-Nintendo-Integrated-Protective-Cartridges\/dp\/B0FBQCJGL7?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"sponsored\">$69.99<\/a> version of its slim case that features everything above and includes a 10,000mAh 20W battery for keeping the Switch 2 charged while it\u2019s inside the case. The company says the battery can fully charge the console 1.5 times. The battery results in a thicker case, and its bespoke compartment only holds the specific Belkin model that\u2019s included, so you won\u2019t be able to swap in a different, faster-charging battery. Neither of those may be deal-breakers for you, but are worth keeping in mind.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p><h2 class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup\">The best grip case for the Switch 2\u2019s handheld mode<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The <strong>Killswitch<\/strong> is the best case for handheld mode because it allows you to remove the Joy-Con 2 controllers and includes an adapter to easily connect to the dock. Plus, it offers kickstand access.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">If you don\u2019t <em>ever <\/em>plan to connect your Switch 2 to its dock or detach its Joy-Cons, or it\u2019ll be a rare occurrence, you might pick an all-in-one shell that fits completely around the console. It will protect every angle of your Switch 2 from dings and scratches, and may even keep it safe in the event of a drop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spigen-Designed-Protective-Ergonomic-Compatible\/dp\/B0DMV31N3F?tag=theverge02-20\" rel=\"sponsored\"><strong>$29.99 Spigen Rugged Armor<\/strong><\/a> is a suitable option. It fits around nearly every nook of the Switch 2, leaving access to its headphone jack, USB-C ports, and speakers (it doesn\u2019t cover up the air vents either because that\u2019d be silly). It gets bonus points for fitting around the edges of the Joy-Con 2 while providing more pronounced grips, which may be a boon for those who experience hand or wrist pain while holding the console in handheld mode. However, as noted, you\u2019ll need to remove the case in order to install the Switch 2 into its dock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1o279nj1 _1o279nj0
