Should You Buy the Satisfye ZenGrip Go Slim Grip for the Nintendo Switch Lite?
31In this video, we unbox and test out a Satisfye ZenGrip Go for the Nintendo Switch Lite.
As long as I have been reviewing cases for the Nintendo Switch, and Switch Lite for that matter, I have been asked about how certain cases compare to those from Satisfye. I had honestly never tested them out before, but on a recent trip to a Disc Replay, they actually had a Satisfye ZenGrip Go grip for the Nintendo Switch Lite for sale in the showcase. And for $20, I was willing to check it out.
The Satisfie grip is fairly unique in its design. The molded composite holds your Switch firmly, but it never actually makes contact with your system. Instead, it uses rubber grommets to provide support to your system, reducing the wear and tear from inserting or removing your system from the grip. It's a pretty ingenious little design.
One feature that you may either love or hate is the way that the grips are designed to angle your hands outward from the center of your system. This is done to provide a more ergonomic and potentially more comfortable way to hold your system during long gameplay sessions. Like I say, you may or may not like this. I was not a fan myself, however my wife really likes it
Another feature of the ZenGrip Go is the case that came with it as well. Satisfye offers the ZenGrip Go in three different configurations, the grip itself, the grip with the case that you see here, and the grip with an even more enhanced case. Depending on your needs you have different options at different price points. The case that came with my unit here holds the system and the grip well, and provides storage for eight cartridges, a pretty nice bonus.
In testing, I thought that the ZenGrip Go felt okay, but I was not a huge fan of how it angled my hands and wrists outward away from the center line of the console. In the past, I've liked TPU cases that feature some sort of grip on the back of the system, this to me makes it super comfortable. The ZenGrip Go makes the Switch Lite wider than it would normally be, honestly about the width of a traditional Switch, combined with the angle of your hands may or may not be something comfortable for you to use. Your mileage may vary.
Why it RoX:
- Quality materials used throughout
- Can be used in handheld or tabletop mode
- Accommodates charging stands
- Multiple configurations available
- Multiple color options for the grip and cases available
- Hands don't become fatigued during gameplay
What could be improved:
- A little pricey
- You may or may not like the angle that the grips put your hands and wrists
Should you buy one?
The Satisfye ZenGrip Go for the Switch Lite is a nice unit. It uses quality materials, can be used with a charging dock, and facilitates use in handheld mode. These are all really good things. You may or may not like the change in angle of your hands and wrists that the grips provide. This is strictly personal preference, I did not care for him however my wife does. As such, you may want to purchase one of these after you have held one to see what you think of the comfort level, or worst case scenario, have the option to return it after purchase if you're not satisfied. No pun intended.
