Wondering how much time it takes for a Nintendo Switch to fully charge? You’re in the right place!

Let’s talk about charging up that Nintendo Switch and what you need to know to keep it ready for your next gaming adventure.

Quick Answer: Charging Time for Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch typically needs about 3 hours to charge fully when it’s powered off or in sleep mode. This time can change a bit based on how you’re using it.

When you’re playing a game while charging, it might take longer. But, if it’s off or sleeping, 3 hours should do the trick.
