A new Nintendo Switch model will come out Mid-August for the same price of $299. Other than a fairly large increase in battery life and a few new joy-con colors coming out at the same time, there’s nothing new to it.My cereal got soggy while typing this :[SourceEdit: Like niconii said, it should be noted that this won’t be sold next to the original model of the switch, but is instead replacing the original model entirely.
Also, I’ve been getting SO many YouTube recommendations for tech channels talking about the new model, and I finally watched one https://youtu.be/dwHZ7Sz1-wY. Although it doesn’t say so on the official page, it does seem like the newer model also has a slightly brighter screen, as well as more accurate color. In the video they did a few tests on the screens, so it seems fairly reliable.
In the image the new switch is on the bottom.

This isn't the Switch Lite. It's just a Switch with more battery. It's not a smaller switch with all the good stuff removed that also happens to have improved battery life.

Come to me for help, if you like!Programming StrengthDrawingI like to draw!HobbiesTo clarify a bit, this "new Nintendo Switch model" thing just means that eventually, when you buy a regular Switch, you'll get a slightly improved model with better battery life, instead of the launch model. It's not going to have a new name or anything, they're just replacing the original model. The box might not even be marked any differently.

Cool. I thought they would release it as a 'New Nintendo Switch' or something. Thanks for clarifying.

. . .The box might not even be marked any differently.
Supposedly, it will be marketed the same but will have a new box design differentiating it from the launch model. If not, you'll still be able to check the device's serial, located both on the unit and the box.

Apparently this new model will use Sharp IGZO displays, which is apparently a big deal (I don't know anything about them) which could explain the better color and brightness.
Also interestingly, the battery life improvement doesn't come from a new model of battery, but a new main board. The new board is a lot more energy efficient, but the battery is the same. Something similar was done with the Lite.

Yep! Nintendo released the second model without any announcement to fix a hardware exploit. That's all it did. Clearly not something that needs announcing.

I don't think so but the second model was released around July 2018-ish so if you bought your switch after then it's probably a model 2 switch

Got mine in 2017, so I guess I have model 1. Wish there was an easy way to upgrade, sounds like early owners are getting gypped here.

Some switched sold much later than June 2018 still are the original version: mine was bought in December 2018 and still was hackable/had the original hardware.

The verdict is currently out.
