Other Switch 2 Accessories to Consider

iMP Tech DLEX+LED Multi-Function Charger Stand for £35: Perfect for streamers or desk-bound players, it will keep your gaming space looking neat and your controllers fully functional. It has charging slots for four Joy-Con 2s and four original Joy-Cons on the main base unit, all with charge indicators, while two pop-out USB-C cables on the back allow you to connect more traditional joypads like the Switch 2 Pro controller. Power is provided via the charging adapter you already plug into your console’s dock, which in turn locks onto the DLX2 with a dual USB-A block that feeds power. It’s compatible with the Switch 2, the original Switch, and the Switch OLED, and the two USB slots you lose on the dock are replaced with pass-through ports on the left side of the base for other peripherals. Organizationally, the stand gives you a place to hang your headset, while a spring-loaded tray on the right side holds and conceals up to nine game carts. It can be a little tricky to set up, and overall charging can be slow if you try to connect up to 10 devices, but once done, it’s a great storage solution, enhanced by the subtle but striking RGB lighting. However, like the iMP’s mouse adapter, stock seems to be limited to Amazon UK at the time of writing. —matt kamen

Spigen Rugged Armor for $18: This molded grip case has heavy bumpers and thick Joy-Con grips, but it was hard to remove, requiring a lot of wiggle room, as it won’t fit into the dock with the case attached, and you can’t even detach the Joy-Con. This would be a good case if you are buying the console for a small child who you don’t trust to be gentle with it.

Belkin TemperedGlass Screen Protector with Blue Light Filter for $30: While I like the look of this screen protector, and the blue light filter is useful for late-night gaming sessions, the flimsy applicator frame isn’t as good as other options. It’s also a little expensive, only $30 for one.

Dbrand Prism 2.0 for $35: I liked the Prism 2.0 screen protectors and their application process as much as the Spigen one above. But they’re a little more expensive and only available directly from Dbrand, so if you buy them yourself, you’ll have to pay shipping. If you’re buying something else, like a case or skin, you’ll get a discount and possibly qualify for free shipping, making these well worth it.

Jsaux Joy-Con Charging Grip for $15: If you often play with the Joy-Cons detached, this charging grip from Jsaux lets you continue playing while charging the controllers in the process via the USB-C slot on the top of the handle. It also puts them at a more ergonomic angle, but keeping them attached renders some of the motion controls unusable, and I would have liked to see an internal battery.
