According to several reports, the Switch might be having a big issue. Some gamers are reporting that the Switch console bends when staying in the dock for long times. <\/p>\n
Reddit user NSR even provided a photo that clearly shows the end of the console slightly bent, which you can see below. He says that it hasn’t affected how the console functions, but it’s certainly worrying. <\/p>\n
Others users have reported the same thing: the console is slightly bending at the end, one user managed to set up a repair with Nintendo. Another user added<\/a> “Oh shit, this is a real thing. I just checked mine and it is bent the same way. The QC is becoming a disappointment”<\/p>\n One explanation could be that the console gets too hot while in the dock mode, which could deform some of the plastic. But it’s hard to tell at this point. <\/p>\n We know it can’t be the battery that’s bulging, since the battery is on the other side of the console (even though the Switch battery is made by the same manufacturer<\/a> behind the notorious exploding Galaxy Note smartphones). <\/p>\n This isn’t the first problem with the Switch dock: we’ve heard several reports that the dock can scratch the screen (which happened to us as well). Despite this, Nintendo has denied that screen scratching is a problem<\/a>.<\/p>\n Check out the bent Switch console below:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
