Summary

Daniel criticizes the upcoming Switch Lite: fixed Joy-Cons, no TV dock, kickstand, rumble, or tabletop mode; smaller screen. At $200 versus roughly $300, he sees value for handheld users; compactness and sturdiness appeal despite his cash-grab criticism. Bought for Fortnite, he abandoned the Switch after losing interest, replaced it with an MSI laptop, and sold it.

Insight

His recurring tech-buying pattern continues: initial enthusiasm gives way to underuse, regret, and resale.
