+The original Switch, and thus far, the only Switch that can be conceivably hacked without significant difficulty. Earlier revisions of this system (HAC-001) are hackable without a modchip, while later revisions of this system (HAC-001(-01)) are unhackable without a modchip. In other features, this Switch, being the original model, has the usual setup of a non-OLED 6.2" screen, 32 GB of internal memory, and so on. Usual Switch functions.

+A Switch that has been shrunken down and turned into a portable-only system. Obviously, many changes come with this change in form factor, including the lack of detachable joycons, the inability to dock, a smaller screen and general form factor, and a longer battery life despite the lower capacity. Of course, like later revision "Classic" Switches, the Lite is unhackable without a modchip.

-Touted as a hardware upgrade, the OLED Switch barely qualifies as a proper “version” instead of a revision.
+Touted as a hardware upgrade, the OLED Switch barely qualifies as a proper “version” instead of a revision. It's primary feature, as stated in the name, is the inclusion of an OLED screen, which is also a bit larger than the original model. Alongside this, the OLED Switch has 64 GB instead of 32 GB internal memory, a better kickstand, better speakers, and an improved dock that has a LAN port. Otherwise, functions are the same including the inability to hack without a modchip.

 === “Switch V2 (HAC-001(-01))” (2019-2021?) ===
+Otherwise known as "patched" Switches. In hardware features, the HAC-001(-01) has a higher capacity battery than it's revision predecessor. However, as already stated in the previous entry, this revision cannot be hacked in any way (as of 2022) without a modchip. Basically, if you want EOPs, don't get this one.
