To this day, the Nintendo Switch is the best-selling console in history, above the legendary PlayStation 2, however many of these were in the lite version.
Today we are going to see if this model with fewer features can be connected or not to our television and thus enjoy it on the big screen.
How to connect a Switch Lite to the TV?
The truth is that there are many of you who ask this and unfortunately I do not have great news for you. The Lite version of this console has a port only USB-C inputwhich means that you can connect input peripherals, such as the charger to power the battery, however does not have output hardwarewhich makes it impossible for him to connect it via cable to our television.
This was designed, unlike the original, as an even more portable and lightweight model, capable of being transported more easily and with less equipment both to reduce weight and to lighten costs and make it an economical version, for this reason. Nintendo did not consider the fact of being able to incorporate hardware to transmit to TV. It is something that they leave their older sister and therefore if you are thinking of buying one, it is a point to take into account if you are going to want to connect it to a TV.
It is a pity that this version does not have the function, because if the screen breaks, the only way to be able to play it again is to buy another one or replace it, although hey, if we have a portable console, the most normal thing is to want to play it autonomously I imagine.
Its current price on Amazon is €210, a very good price for the functions it offers since if you don’t mind not being able to connect it to your TV, the normal version is around €275 on Amazon, a difference that is not very big but that can be a reason to opt for one or the other depending on your needs now that you know the truth.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is already closer. In it we will surely see a Lite version a little later and it is possible that the brand will consider putting an outlet there due to the number of users with this model who request it, however, we will have to wait and be satisfied with what we have for now . I hope they improve in the future.
