Transition has been fantastic as proven by sales. This console might clear 20 million by March 2026 ie before it turns 1.

Heavy hitting software via first and third parties. MK World, Pokemon, and DK along with new AAA third party releases.

Superior hardware in every way such as:
Power is the obvious one as seen by the third party releases and MK & DK.
Screen with 1080p, VRR, 120 hz, and soon HDR trumps 720p, Oled, and 60hz on Switch Oled.
Controls are another huge improvement, Joycons 2 has to be the most versatile controller in history.
Battery seems more of the same since Switch hardly lasted long when it was playing AAA games if it got any at all.

You really should research the Switch 2's screen, it is technologically crap. And the battery is factually worse at runtime. 

Or instead of "researching it", I could use my on hands experience. I own both platforms (Switch Oled & Switch 2) and by no stretch of the imagination would I prefer the Switch Oled screen to Switch 2. VRR alone made me realize how bad Switch games felt due to the smoother frame rate. The 8 inch, 1080p screen greatly enhances the table top and handheld mode. It is absolutely superior to Switch/Switch Oled no contest.

As for your battery life nonsense, it's literally the only thing comparable between the two but only one of these consoles is consistently getting AAA games which put a bigger strain on battery life. 2 hours of Madden is better than 0 hours because the console can't run it.

The sales speak for themselves, the world loves this thing because it's the best bang for your buck. Everything else needs their price tag ignored for a reason.

I didn't even mention GameChat, had a friend showing me how to build a good myplayer in 2K26 via screenshare/videoshare. That's how incredible this console is, a built in solution not clunky at all like Discord on Xbox.
