Pretty even, or it feels that way.
Switch I started mostly docked and then went almost entirely handheld by the last several years.

Voted for entirely docked. I played Mario Kart in handheld mode a little when I first got it but ever since then... nope. I'm really not a fan of Switch 2 as a handheld, even just around the house; it's too big, too heavy, the joycon's sticks and buttons are lame, the battery runs out too fast and I don't care for the screen.
I like playing modern games on my big OLED tv screen with good HDR and a pro controller. Handheld mode is for my classic console/arcade games, all of which I moved back over to my Switch OLED that I vastly prefer as a portable and where I have good controller parts attached.
Always docked. If I travel I just read a book. I can't get into tiny screens and weak audio. Portable gaming has come a long way but it can't match 65 inch OLED at 120 hz with full surround.
I would be all over a S2 Home console with boosted power for high resolutions. I really wish Nintendo would go for it.

I’m probably 98% docked, 2% portable. I typically use portable mode during long trips away from home — at which point I suddenly become very grateful for the hybrid design


Whoa, as someone who plays entirely docked I didn't realize there were so many others in the same boat.
The system's effectively a home console to me as I prefer a big screen and speakers and a Pro controller.
100% docked... That screen is unusable for me, so I grab my Switch OLED instead if I am playing on the go.
