The Tomtomc Slim is easily one of the best Switch 2 cases currently available and many of us use this case ourselves. The only criticism is its steep $40 sticker price. Fortunately, it's on sale today for the lowest price I've seen so far. Amazon has the Tomtoc Slim in black for $29.59. Alternatively, you can get the white or gray colors for $1 extra. With this deal it's less expensive than the official Nintendo Switch 2 case even though it has better build quality.
Tomtoc Slim Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case for $29.59
Tomtoc has a history of making great cases for mobile electronics, including most current gaming handhelds like the original Switch and Switch Lite, Steam Deck, and Asus ROG Ally. Its signature trademark is the raised indent patterning for each handheld's unique analog joystick and button layout. This is mostly an aesthetic touch, but it helps set Tomtoc cases apart from the boring monochrome design you'll see for nearly every other case out there including the official case.
Material-wise, the Tomtoc is a hardshell case with a felt inner lining. It has an interior flap that can fit up to 12 game cards, a buckle strap, and durable YKK zipper that's smoother and easier to use than the Genki Sleeper case. Since this is a slim case designed for as minimal of a footprint as possible, there's no room to fit a charger.
Need something bigger?
If you're looking for something roomier, Tomtoc also has a sling-style case that's specifically made for portable gaming handhelds including the Switch 2. The padded compartment is shaped like a "W" to make room for a wide range of handhelds that have dual analog joysticks. It's not specifically designed for the Switch 2, so don't expect a molded fit, but there's plenty of room here to fit extra controllers, a charger or power bank, and more.

Nintendo Switch 2 orders have shipped and many lucky gamers are playing Mario Kart World as I write this. In addition to a new case, you might want to think about picking up some other Switch 2 accessories, like a MicroSD Express card for extra storage, a screen protector for extra protection, or a power bank for extra battery life. Check out the list of officially licensed Switch 2 accessories that are already up for preorder, including the all-new Switch 2 Pro controller.
