According to Nintendo "supply of Nintendo Switch [1] hardware will continue if enough demand persists"

Surely demand will continue for a long time as there are markets which are more price sensitive like South America, Africa etc as well as poorer nations elsewhere. Even in Japan the original Switch is still selling very well. Some prefer the more compact size and longer battery runtime. It makes a better portable system for many. It might be a while before the Switch 2 gets a more advanced model with longer battery runtime. I feel the Switch 2 has taken an extra step towards being a home console and one step away from being a portable system. It's a little more bulky and harder to carry. When I held the Switch 2 it reminded me of holding a wii u gamepad in fact I think it might have been wider. I do feel the Switch Lite remains the most impressive portable console on the market for conveniently carrying about and not careing about its weight and size. I have a feeling the Switch Lite may be the last Switch to go out of production in a few years.
