For most Nintendo Switch owners, if there was one thing they could change about the console, it would probably be the battery life. The standard Switch model could only last 2.5 to 6.5 hours on a single charge, but the updated model that Nintendo unveiled in July improves upon that number significantly. If you buy a Switch with model number HAC-001(-01), you can expect 4.5 to 9 hours of battery life before having to plug the console back in.
As the console started to make its way on to store shelves around the world last week, reports arose claiming that Nintendo would exchange any original Switch models purchased after July 17th for a free, updated Switch with better battery life. Polygon even called Nintendo’s customer service line to verify the details of the claims, but just days later, The Verge reports that there isn’t and never was any official exchange program.
