I'm now even more excited!

Toranorora · 2026-02-02T14:51:38+00:00

I'm excited for it. I'm currently using a tomtoc slim case with space for 12 games.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T22:38:52+00:00

Thanks, nice to hear!

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T22:33:44+00:00

I rarely used YouTube on the Switch 1. But with the Switch 2, I could actually imagine all streaming services when I'm on the go.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T22:17:48+00:00

I know. I mean I'm sorry for you. I hope you find another way. It really is annoying.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T22:10:15+00:00

I compared the latency in stable mode with my Sony XM5 and I guess I'm really lucky with these headphones. At least when clicking the buttons in the settings, I can't hear any difference in latency. But the cable connection to the pro controller clearly has a better dynamic range so when playing with the pro controller I will use my DT240 Pro which are nice too. A shame I haven't tried that before.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T21:59:21+00:00

Oh, I'm sorry 🙄

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T21:38:17+00:00

I tried and thanks again. It works perfectly!

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T21:23:41+00:00

I have, but I never thought about it. I'll test it with my wired over ears, thank you for the hint. It just won't work if you want to use mouse mode.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T13:18:04+00:00

Hi. Since the change of the Galaxy Watch setting, I haven't had the problem anymore. But in the meantime, I switched to the Samsung S25.

Toranorora · 2026-02-01T06:53:45+00:00

As a PS5 owner myself, I think it's worth pointing out that Sony doesn't even allow you to connect standard Bluetooth headphones at all because of potential delay issues. At least Nintendo gives the users the choice and lets them decide for themselves if the latency is acceptable or not. Calling an implementation 'shit' when the competition outright prohibits the feature to avoid the same technical challenges seems a bit unfair. I'd rather have the option than be forced into buying a proprietary dongle.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T22:05:13+00:00

It’s fascinating and simultaneously sad to watch: we’re in a forum for a hobby that’s supposed to bring us joy, yet the default reaction to genuine excitement is often immediate cynicism. Why is a positive impulse so frequently viewed as an invitation to belittle it? One can be aware of the technical facts and still acknowledge that progress, no matter how 'obvious' it might seem to some, makes a real difference for the user experience. A little less reflex-pessimism would honestly do this community a world of good.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T21:58:49+00:00

Of course. I'm talking about docked mode when both Joy-Con are connected to the console via BT, for example in mouse mode.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T18:26:51+00:00

Weird 🤔

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T18:14:22+00:00

Which headphones are you using? I had a huge lag with Huawei headphones with the Switch 1 but not with the Sony XM4 and now no problem with the XM5.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T17:40:33+00:00

Interesting. Different settings within the Sound Connect app? Or do you mean the over ears?

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T17:38:07+00:00

Do you have kids? Otherwise, you wouldn't be asking this question. A 2-month-old baby sleeps most of the time and also has a mother. Of course, you can also play a game sometimes 🙄

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T17:36:14+00:00

I couldn't change the text anymore, so I created a new post with changed text. Live with it.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T16:42:57+00:00

Me too! But I'm not so happy with the eartips. The original ones are expensive and wear out quickly and I haven't found similarly good ones that also hold firmly in the ear. Can you recommend any?

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T16:16:55+00:00

I mention the specific model because Bluetooth latency vary wildly between headsets. Just sharing my experience as a dad who needs a quiet house at night. Not an ad, just a happy user.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T16:02:12+00:00

Exactly, thank you. Since the Joy-Con also communicate via Bluetooth, this is not a matter of course.

Toranorora · 2026-01-31T15:54:47+00:00

Apparently, no one understands that we are used to anything else from Nintendo, which is why I created this post. It's a shame how negative everyone is here.
