It’s not, and the joycons are even HARDER to repair due to a piece of plastic glued over a screw on the inside…
Comment on iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the original

Hope the drift issue is fixed. Ran into the issue with two of mine. The paper under the joystick hack didn’t work and one of the brand new replacement joysticks I installed isn’t responsive. 🙄

Thanks to 3d printing I have litres of isopropyl. What sucks is you probably want to replace the glue since it’s there to protect against liquids, and Nintendo don’t care to provide a seal kit
You also need to remove stickers to get at the screws
Also you need a security screwdriver (three blade) for those screws
There are no replacement stickers, we wait for iFixit to provide guidance on adhesives

Spoiler alert: it’s not. Same joysticks as last time.

Are you fucking kidding? They didn’t switch to Hall Effect?

Still has an LCD panel, and still has regular sticks. I guess saving 0.10$ per unit adds up

Idiots will buy it no matter what, may as well use the cheap stuff.
