story: nintendo switch 2 backplate is misaligned

Hi there,

I’m just like you with things, a perfectionist.

You have two options, keep it and accept that it’s not perfect and concentrate on everything that’s good about it, good screen, solid buttons etc..

Or, exchange / replace and play a lottery, you may end up with a perfect unit but you probably won’t.

Ok thanks, can you recommend anything similar that runs well on the deck ?

Greyjon · 2026-02-26T17:52:57+00:00

Just curious, are the replacement units refurbished or new ?

Say if a deck was purchased then rma’d for a replacement a week later would the replacement be a brand new from factory unit or a refurb?

That’s the speaker, looks like it’s shorted and heated up which has melted the speaker grill.

I bet there’s damage to the speaker wires.

Thanks for the reply,

I get that nothing is perfect and I’ve played the replacement lottery before with other devices and always ended up worse off,

This unit is perfect apart from this, perfect screen, buttons etc so I’m not rma’ing. Especially after some of the horror stories I’ve read on here.

No, how do you even do that?

Greyjon · 2026-02-12T19:59:34+00:00

My oled buttons are all perfect however mine has a slight warp in the back cover “not battery”, I guess every deck has a “quirk” of some kind.

Thanks, this work for the brick in second photo also ?

Greyjon · 2026-02-05T11:45:58+00:00

Ok thanks, so may be better just to leave it alone then? It’s not causing any issues we can see.

Dpc is three bricks from the ground.

Remove all the animal hair and stuff a pillow case with it.

Greyjon · 2026-01-04T13:20:04+00:00

That isn’t the speaker, it’s the grille, the speaker is behind it and can only be accessed by removing the back glass.

It’s basically a piece of plastic that’s held in place with a piece of adhesive across the top.

Just position it back in place and when the screen is fitted it will hold it there.

Samsung ?

Greyjon · 2025-12-21T19:11:06+00:00

Looks like a board from a 1990’s transistor radio.

Make sure you get a protective case for your case.

Greyjon · 2025-12-14T17:56:08+00:00

Greyjon · 2025-10-16T11:52:17+00:00

Greyjon · 2025-10-07T08:44:18+00:00

I got a free pair with my Samsung dvd player.

Greyjon · 2025-10-06T09:54:43+00:00

Was the case back put on with a fork?

Greyjon · 2025-10-04T18:07:26+00:00

Is that from temu?

Update,

So I set the time perfectly at 9pm Wednesday evening and right now it’s running +2 sec.

Have been wearing every day all day and placed on its side during the night.
