TL;DR

Nintendo plans a Switch 2 revision in the EU with replaceable batteries for the console and Joy-Cons to comply with upcoming EU right-to-repair rules; the current version reportedly has a glued-in battery, Japan specs would stay the same, and Nintendo hasn’t commented yet. If the change expands beyond the EU, it could boost repairability as devices age toward longer lifespans.
