Here's an official comparison between the Switch and Switch Lite. https://www.nintendo.com/switch/compare/#game-compatibility

Weird how it says it doesn't support tabletop mode. Can it not connect to normal joycons? Did they remove bluetooth? Would seem a bit weird to take out that functionality. Though it makes more sense on why it can't be used docked if they took out bluetooth to save money.

On the plus side at least they have a decent dpad.

The Switch Lite can connect to normal Joy-Cons.

This is what it says about Game Compatibility: 

"Nintendo Switch Lite can play the games in the Nintendo Switch library that support handheld mode.

For games that do not support handheld mode, players can wirelessly connect compatible controllers (sold separately) to Nintendo Switch Lite. If using separate Joy-Con controllers, users will need to have a device to recharge them, such as the Joy-Con Charging Grip.

To find play mode compatibility information for specific games, please refer to the product packaging or Nintendo eShop.

Just look for the “handheld mode” icon:"
