Introduction
Have you ever tried travelling with your Switch 2 without a proper travel case? You know that it’s an absolute hassle trying to carry the console, games and accessories in a bag ill suited for preventing damage or wear and tear. While the Switch 2 is built for portability, protecting it is just as important, and with that you have to consider things such as how you travel. For general daily commutes a slim case can work great, but when you start adding accessories, games, chargers or perhaps even a dock for weekend getaways or family trips, you’ll need something that is more spacious and sturdier. That’s where different travel case types come into play, since different case types cover different lifestyles and levels of adventure. Let’s talk about three solid options and see which one suits your travel needs best.
Daily Commuter Essential: BG0133- Colorful Pro Ultra-Thin Carrying Case
First up is the BG0133. It is an ultra thin and lightweight case that can slip into your bag without almost noticing, yet it provides more than adequate protection to keep your Switch 2 safe. As a daily driver, this is the perfect case for your “pop in, go to work/uni/quick coffee trip” type trips. It doesn't overwhelm you with bulk or extras and focuses on the bare essentials, but it does the job perfectly- safeguarding your console on the go. It’s ideal for when you just want your lightweight, no fuss companion that matches your daily rhythm.
Weekend Warrior: BG0132- FlexForm Plus Travel Case
Lets talk about the BG0132, branded as the FlexForm Plus. This one takes it one step further where it still remains fairly compact but comes layered with a few smart features. On the inside of the case you can find a precision cut interior that's perfect for storing your console and cables you’d need for your handheld. It goes a step further by holding up to ten game cards securely. If that’s not enough, it also comes with “armour grade shockproof” protection, negating any potential bumps and drops on your next weekend road trip. Plus, after all that it also supports TV mode even when your console is in a third-party case instead of the official ones, which means less time spent with annoying unpacking and repacking and more time spent gaming.
Family or Long-Haul Travel Boss: BG0134- FlexForm Max All-in-One Modular Case
Finally, we’re onto the heavy lifters: BG0134, the FlexForm Max. It’s the Maybach of cases from the lineup. It provides a customizable flex-form internal layout with velcro dividers which allows you to organize your multiple accessories or perhaps even a second console. With its size, it can fit in an extra joy-con set, dock, chargers and more, and the water repellant fabric gives you some extra peace of mind for unexpected spills or perhaps getting caught in the rain during travel. Given the size of the BG0134, one of its most popular uses is the ability to use it as a dedicated storage. Here’s another fun fact: It also pairs very well with the BG0133, so you can keep the thin companion in your everyday bag and double up when you pack for travel.
Here’s a quick little comparison table to help you size things up:
Case (Model) | Size / Weight Profile | Capacity & Features | Best For |
BG0133 | Extra-thin, lightweight | Just the console | Daily commuting, minimalists |
BG0132 | Slim, moderate bulk | Console + 10 game cards + accessories (shockproof) | Weekend trips, casual travel |
BG0134 | Largest, modular | Console, extra Joy-Con set, dock, accessories; water-repellent | Family trips, long-distance, gaming on the go |
Final Thoughts
So let’s summarize everything. For your everyday routine, if you’re looking for something that is both lightweight and sleek, the BG0133 is your choice. If you’re planning a weekend getaway or perhaps a short trip and need a bit more bang for your buck when it comes to storage and structure, the BG0132 is your friend, since it hits that perfect sweet spot of being compact as well as capable. And after all that if you’re still looking for more, for something that will cover your adventures that are more ambitious such as long distant travel, family jaunt or perhaps adding more gear, accessories or a second console, then the absolute MVP that is the BG0134 with its modular layout and high capacity. Each is designed for a different lifestyle, so you can find the perfect fit for your travel style and keep your Switch 2 protected wherever you go, or perhaps you want to be equipped for every scenario in which case all three will cover every base.
