Screen and Size
Recommended Videos
Between the two systems, you’re taking a hit in screen size with the Lite but you’re doing so with one key benefit: higher pixels-per-inch.
The Switch has a 6.2 inch screen with a peak resolution of 720p. The Lite is a 5.5 inch screen with a peak resolution of 720p. Because the two screens are capable of the same resolution, the smaller screen is packing more pixels-per-inch.
This translates to sharper images onscreen.
In terms of overall size and weight, the Lite mimics its screen size: it’s smaller. It’s 3.6 inches by 8.2 inches by 5.5 inches and .61 pounds. The Switch, on the other hand, is 4 inches by 9.4 inches by 5.5 inches with a weight of .88 pounds.
