The Dbrand Killswitch for Nintendo switch 2 is still my favourite case for the Switch 2, and whilst I didn’t experience either of the below issues, Dbrand has managed to solve both issues and will provide free replacements automatically to those who ordered, and obviously future shipments will ship with the fixes.
Joy-Con Detachment Update: Part 3 (We Fixed It)
byu/dbrand indbrand
The two issues that certain people were experiencing were Joy-Cons detaching when held at a certain angle, which has now been fixed with a Joy-Con Lock. The company isn’t showing off exactly what it is due to patent requirements, but it has shown a video of the new Joy-Con grips in action and they absolutely stay on when being shaken and pulled at.
The second thing that people wanted improved was keeping the dock adapter in place when pulling the Switch 2 out with one hand, and Dbrand has rectified this with a set of silicon friction pads that will keep the dock adapter snugly in place in the OEM dock and these will be sent out to anyone who ordered (and included on future purchases as well).
You can read my original Dbrand Nintendo Switch 2 Killswitch review HERE, and I’ll absolutely be providing an updated review once my new set arrives.
You can order the Dbrand Killswitch Nintendo Switch 2 edition from dbrand HERE or at the below links:
- Essential kit which is $59.95 USD (~$92 AUD) and includes the Killswitch case (back cover, Joy-Con grips and kickstand cover), the dock adapter required to use the Switch 2 in the Killswitch case with the dock, and a skin (there’s lots of options including all of dbrand’s signature skins and more).
- Travel Kit comes in at $79.85 (~$123 AUD) and will probably be the one that I recommend to most people making the jump. This includes everything in the Essential kit, but it also adds an extremely sturdy travel cover for the front of the Switch 2, a magnetic game card holder that snaps into the travel cover and stick grips.
- Ultra Kit for $99.80 USD (~$154 AUD) and you get all of the above plus a 2-pack of dbrand’s Prism 2.0 screen protectors. I’m not a screen protector kind of person, but if you are dbrands are some of the best and super easy to install.
