No existing USB-C monitors or smart glasses can connect to Switch 2 directly—until now. Cforce unveiled two portable monitors that can charge and output from Switch 2 with just one cable.

Cforce 118G:
• 18” mini-LED panel
• 1200 nits, HDR1000

Cforce116G:
• 16” QLED panel
• 300 nits, HDR10

Both:
• 1600p (can downscale 4K), 240Hz
• 100% DCI-P3 color
• Touchscreen for Mac/PC, VRR for PS5

These monitors emulate the Switch 2 dock, therefore you get the TV mode performance—this is the same trick used by Switch 1 compatible displays. At the moment, no word on their availability outside of China. More importantly, since Cforce has figured out how to emulate the dock, the floodgates may be opening for 3rd party docks, monitors, and smart glasses for Switch 2.

[Update] It’s come to my attention that Viture updated their battery dock for smart glasses to support Switch 2. However, the dock is only capable of 1080p/60Hz. Presently the firmware update also broke its compatibility with Switch 1, Steam Deck, and a few other devices.
