Hi,

If it only arrived yesterday it appears that it is new, is this correct?

And as it is a newly released model also either way it should still be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, which may be up to 2 years depending on your location.

It is better that you get the problem fixed under warranty than risk voiding the warranty by opening the device to try and solve the problem yourself as you may need the warranty for whatever reason later on. That’s what warranties are for

If you want to do this then here’s the Nintendo Switch Lite Teardown guide, which may help. It is not a repair guide but shows how to access the various components in the device

I was hoping that it was something I could easily just get to myself - but looks like it's a little more than just popping off the back cover :(
