Nintendo revealed Switch 2 stops charging at about 90% remaining battery with a new option. Pausing the charge at around 90% reduces deterioration to the battery. If “Stop Charging Around 90%” is turned on, the charging speed will slow down around 90%.

The battery is already so tiny and small. Losing 10% just to slow down deterioration already puts you in a place of less capacity - except before the battery ever deteriorates. Completely counter-intuitive.

I have to say that I really like the new OS sounds

Good option. Most Asus devices have an 80% cap option and it makes a huge difference for battery longevity.

Thats weird it used 20.1.0 too although it's technically a new system

Can there be a button to make 90% the new 100%?

The video stops charging at 88%

My Nintendo Switch has stayed docked literally 99% of the time. I hardly go out and around, and when I do, it is a break from my devices to take in a little fresh air, and stretch my legs, so yeah, if this option isn't on by default, definitely going to turn it on. Nice! 👍😁

Is this meant to preserve the battery?
