Two hands separating the outer shell from a blue Nintendo Switch Joy-Con. They're holding it partially open above a white magnetic project mat on a wooden table. On the table is also an iFixit Jimmy and Pro Tech toolkit in the background, with the screwdriver from that kit sitting on the project mat. The left hand's index finger is also gripping an iFixit Opening Tool.

Yep, the Switch 2 Joy-Cons will probably still drift because Nintendo isn't using Hall effect sensors. So, if you were thinking about upgrading, it might make more sense to swap out the joysticks in your current Joy-Cons. It's easier than you might think—and a lot more affordable.
