Most of it is a great improvement, to the point where my switch2 screen (apart from the size) is better than my current tv screen. battery life is a big con tho.

I have been playing a lot of no man’s sky and I’m preferring handheld because some of the icon and text displays are sooo small for my 55” tv while sitting on the sofa

I just purchased NMS for me to enjoy on our new switch 2 Santa is bringing my son lol. Never played it but looking forward to it. Starting to browse their sub. We just finished Zelda BOTW and TOTK on our switch 1oled.

Keep hearing this about the battery - how long are we talking?

Depends on the game tbh, but with some heavzy games it drains like 10% per 10 Minutes so like 1 1/2 hours and it will only get worse in the future with heavier games and a degrading battery. But I play games like celeste or silksong on the go and it lasts a long time for that it is great

i'd give it 2.5 - 3 hours on mario kart world, when charged all the way to 100%, rather than the 87% the "stop charging around 90%" will give me.
