Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con will drift, impossible to fix?

Nintendo already offering Switch 2 joy-con replacement for free even concerns that they will be sufferr from joystick drift  like the original version.  Well now it is not a secret  that Joy-Con was the biggest issue that the plagued the original Nintendo Switch. The joystick in the smaller controller quickly wore out which is causing thousands of them to break in the process. 

Nintendo was thequickly to respond to the issue, well as you set up a program which is allowed and is affected customers to send in the drifting Joy-Con as a free replacement, assuming the company concluded as the issue which was caused by a manufacturing defect and also not misusing by the customer.

On June 6, on a day after the console came out, it will discovered that Nintendo which is already offering free replacement for the defective controllers and also teardowns which have revealed that the joystick us not improved much.

Joy-Con drift is still a thing.

It is not so possible to tell how the issue of Joy-Con drift will be until people use their Switch 2 for a longer period, as the single day is not ling enough to wear down the controller.

Nintendo also revealed back in April that the new controller do not use Hall Effect sensors. Well it would nearly eliminate stick drift issue due to not having the mechanical point that wears down, but it is claimed that  they would have been redesigned from the ground up with the better potentiometer sticks.

Looking at iFixt they tore down the controller to check out the new joystick, and the chances of the Joy-Cons 2 having stick drift issue which are still rather high.

Well the decision to use regular sensor on the Switch 2 has already left and has many users befuddled, as there are no major design reason that makes the lack of hall effect joysticks make the ton of sense.

Also the magnetic attachment method for the Joy-Con. If Nintendo used Hall Effect sensors on the controller, which means they could likely suffer from the interference when it is attached to the Switch 2.
