Nintendo Switch 2 preorders are officially live, though the first wave has already sold out. But if you were one of the lucky customers who got confirmation of your purchase, it’s now time to start looking at accessories, including carrying cases and screen protectors. If you’re not interested in spending $40 on Nintendo’s official carrying case and screen protector combo pack, there are some enticing third-party options for cheap at Amazon. Check them out below:
$9 (was $16)
A screen protector is a wise investment for your Switch 2, and this iVoler is one of the most popular brands for tempered glass screen protectors for a wide variety of devices, including the original Switch. You can snag a four-pack of Nintendo Switch 2 screen protectors for only $9 (was $16) with this limited-time deal.
These tempered glass screen protectors are 0.3mm thin, and the set also comes with an alignment guide to streamline the installation process. Along with the guide, you’ll get the usual wipes and bubble-removal cards to help you make sure you apply the screen protector perfectly.
$16.84 (was $27.73)
Want an accessory bundle with all the essentials? Check out this pack, which gets you a hardshell carrying case and two tempered glass screen protectors (alignment tray included). The case fits your Switch 2 console, 12 game cards, additional cables, and even the bulky AC adapter. A hard-shell, water-resistant design keeps your gear safe, while a plush interior should ensure nothing jostles around and gets scratched in transit.
This brand is a total unknown, and the case is not officially licensed by Nintendo, but the price is so low that it’s worth considering.
$19
If you’d prefer a sleeker Switch 2 carrying case, this one from another unknown brand is available for $19 in black, and other color options are available for a bit more.
Featuring a thin hardshell design, this case is largely designed for storing the Switch 2 on its own, but it does have an insert with slots for 12 game cartridges.
The EVA hard shell exterior should keep it safe while in your backpack or suitcase, and its thin 1.22-inch footprint means it should be easier to toss in a backpack than some other carrying cases.
