Final Thoughts
  • Nintendo Switch Repairability Score: 8 out of 10 (10 is the easiest to repair)

  • Aside from the digitizer, screws are used instead of adhesive to hold components in place.

  • Most components, including the analog sticks, game cartridge reader, and headphone jack are modular and can be replaced.

  • Batteries, while adhered to their housing, are modular and can be replaced by end users.

  • The digitizer and display are not fused, reducing the cost of repair but increasing complexity.

  • Proprietary tri-point screws restrict users from opening the Switch.

  • Replacing a display or digitizer requires heating and prying against strong adhesive.
