[https://sx.xecuter.com SX Pro by Team Xecuter] <sup>(HM)</sup> (~$60) - A dongle that launches its own custom firmware and attaches to the charging port of the Switch. Useful for launching backups and homebrew applications. It works on any Switch that hasn't been patched or was released before June 2018.

This chip even supports the Nintendo Switch OLED model, but could only launch Atmosphère rather than Xecuter SXOS, and the quality control is a bit problematic.
[https://www.xkit.xyz/rcmloader/ RCMloader ONE] <sup>(HM)</sup> (~$20) - It's a dongle similar to the SX Pro, it can load three different payloads: Atmosphere, ReiNX, and SXOS. It will only work if your Switch hasn't been patched (aka purchased before June 2018).
