I’ve been using the charcoal Belkin Gaming Charging Case for Nintendo Switch 2 for weeks now, and it’s become one of my go-to accessories when I’m on the move. It’s a product that’s simple in concept but packs in a lot of useful functionality, especially if you travel or play handheld frequently.

Out of the box, the case feels premium and well-made. The charcoal color I have looks sleek and doesn’t stand out too much — it’s understated, which I prefer over louder designs. The exterior fabric is water-resistant and the clamshell construction gives confidence that the case will take everyday knocks, bumps, and scrapes without showing wear easily.

Inside, the soft, velvety lining does a good job of protecting the screen and body of the Switch 2. There’s also a mesh pocket for cables and accessories, plus a panel that holds up to about 12 game cards. Belkin even sneaks in a hidden compartment for an AirTag — perfect for peace of mind if you’re worried about losing your gear.

The case also features a convenient pocket for Apple’s AirTag, so you won’t lose track of your prized possession.

What really sets this case apart is the built-in 10,000 mAh removable power bank. This battery can recharge the Switch 2 roughly 1.5 to 2 times on a single fill — which is a big deal, given how quickly the Switch 2 can drain during travel or long play sessions. The power bank has an LCD display to show how much juice is left and supports 20W charging, which keeps things efficient.

Being able to keep the console charged while it’s still inside the case really simplifies on-the-go gaming — no loose power banks or extra cables to juggle. And because the battery is removable, you can take it out and use it with other devices too, like your phone or another handheld.

On the practical side, the case does make your Switch 2 setup a bit bulkier than just carrying the console alone — it’s not the thinnest accessory out there — but that’s the trade-off you get for having protection, storage, and power in one package.

I’ve found the cushioned interior and sturdy shell go a long way toward protecting the system when it’s in my backpack alongside other gear. And while the charging ability is amazing for travel days or long waits, if you’re usually near wall outlets the included Travel Case (the thinner version without the battery) might be worth considering instead.

Final Thoughts

Overall, I’d describe the Belkin Gaming Charging Case as a well-thought-out accessory with a clearly defined purpose: keep your Switch 2 protected, organized, and charged without carrying separate power banks or cases. If you regularly play on the go or travel with your Switch a lot, the convenience alone makes it worth considering — especially in the charcoal variant, which looks clean and professional without being flashy.
