While we can’t see much in the footage, which is quite low quality, the Joy-Con are shown to snap off rather than slide on, perhaps indicating that the new attachment will be done via magnets.
There’s not a whole lot more to be shown, but the video does show off IR Blasters on both Joy-Con, where the original Switch only had one. There also look to be extra triggers previously though it’s not clear if these are extra buttons, a release mechanism or a trigger for those playing with the Joy-Con horizontally.
While there have been many leaks about the Switch 2, especially a rather major one three months ago, the console has yet to be formally revealed, and no release date is known.
