The DSi XL measures 161 x 91.4 x 21.2 mm (6.34 x 3.6 x 0.83"), 1.61x the total volume of the DSi, and 1.48x the volume of the DS Lite. It weighs 314 grams, compared to the DSi's 214g, the DS Lite's 218g and the original DS's 300g.
* Size: 161.0mm x 92.4mm x 21.2mm
 
* Screen size: 4.2 inches diagonal
The screens measure 4.2 inches diagonally (3.36" x 2.52")[2]. For comparison, the DSi's screens diagonally measure 3.25 inches and the DS Lite's screens are 3 inches diagonally, making the XL screen's total area 93 percent larger than DS Lite's [1] As it is only a minor hardware revision, there is no reason to believe that the resolution will change from 256x192 pixels per screen. The reason for the larger screens is mainly attributed to allowing easier play on games that feature small text and precision gameplay. Another reason, according to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, is "to offer a new play style, where those who are surrounding the game player can also join in one way or the other to the gameplay."[5][6]
* Styli: 96.0mm; large: 129.3mm
 
* Weight: 314g
The Japanese version is available in three colors (Wine Red, Dark Brown, and Natural White), all of which were available upon launch.[7] The European DSi XL will initially be released in Wine Red and Dark Brown (with a glossy sheen on top and matte finish on the underside).[1] Both Australia and the North American Release will be available in Burgundy & Bronze at launch.
* Battery charge time: 3 hours
 
* Battery life: 13-17 hours (on lowest brightness)
The DSi XL, like every other DS, includes a stylus that fits into the unit. The DSi XL stylus is 96mm long, just 4mm longer than the stylus on the DSi. The XL also includes a 129.3mm-long pen-shaped stylus, which does not fit inside the console. In addition, for the first time in the DS line, two DS models will share a common AC adapter. The DSi XL will use the same AC adapter as the DSi.
 
Despite the increased size of the displays, the battery in the DSi XL supposedly outlasts that in the DSi. Nintendo claims 13-17 hours of runtime on the lowest brightness setting, compared to 9-14 on the DSi. On the highest brightness, the DSi XL supposedly lasts 4-5 hours, one hour longer than that of the DSi.
