Do not charge Nintendo Switch with smartphone charger
THE official account Nintendo support on the social network Twitter shared an important and useful tip for all users. According to the recent publication, the Japanese company recommends players not to use the smartphone charging cable to charge the battery of their Switch console. In turn, the game brand advises using the special charging cable for Nintendo Switch.
According to the company "When charging Nintendo Switch, forcibly connecting a non-Nintendo Switch-specific charging cable, such as a smartphone charging cable, may damage the charging cable or USB port on the Switch. Also, if you have problems connecting it, make sure it's the correct cable.”.

On this subject, Nintendo had also previously mentioned that the Switch console could not run out of battery for a long time. It is recommended that the device be charged at least once every six months, otherwise it may fail to fully charge.
But the battery is not the only concern of the Japanese brand. Just last week, Nintendo advised gamers not to use their Switch console on days when the temperature is above 35ºC.
