Comment on iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the original

  I wasn’t talking about the repairability score. I was talking about the title of this article stating that it’s “harder” to repair than the Switch 1.

    Yeah, it is harder to do. Specifically

    • you need to remove stickers in a way that you can replace them, if you want to keep them looking good
    • You need to undo glue, iFixit used isopropyl alcohol and force
    • Once you’re in its fairly easy to replace parts, but Nintendo don’t supply parts
    • Batteries are glued down, you need to destroy the foam beneath them to get the batteries out, Nintendo don’t sell replacement foam, or even a specification for the foam
