updated version Nintendo Switch already beginning to appear on store shelves. Its main difference - enhanced autonomy. If the first option to work on a single charge 2.5-6.5 hours, the new stand 4.5-9 hours. The rest of the consoles are practically no different - even at the cost. Here's how to understand what you are buying an improved version.

And yet look inside. The new version of one of the controllers Joy-Con has to protrude slightly from the holder. In addition, he is now the holder is not located on the left of the console, and on the right.
Check the serial number
If you buy a set-top box with hands, it is likely that its owner has already thrown the box. But you can check the serial number. In the new version it should begin with the letters XKW. If you see other letters - for example, XAW, - then you are in the hands of the old version.
There is no guarantee that you will receive a new version of the Nintendo Switch, if you order it through the Internet. The stores still have the old versions of consoles, and will endeavor to sell in the first place. So if you want the console with enhanced autonomy, look directly on the shelves of retail stores.
