Hardware Handheld mode users with an old Switches question

[ReDEyeDz]

Question for people who had Switch for a good amount of time (2 years?) and playing in handheld mode most of the time. How is your battery doing? I'm very curious how the battery holds after years.

My battery is fine, thanks for asking. No noticeable difference in playtime. Day 1 owner.

Nice to hear. It's reassuring to know that other people's batteries are fine. I'm just very paranoid about this stuff.

Had my switch since Day 1...battery has been doing great...no bloating or anything. Only used in Dock mode like 3 times since bought

Are you keeping it in sleep mode on dock when you're not using it?

I typically keep it plugged in while in sleep mode...I have a separate USB-C cable and power brick and it's not in the dock

Is there any difference between leaving it charging in dock or straight on charger?

Some people say that the dock's design doesn't give enough ventilation and could cause the system to bend...but I think that was just a manufactoring defect or something
