If you haven't kept up with recent developments, this new standard Switch is believed to increase the current Switch's 2.5 - 6.5 hour battery life to 4.5 - 9 hours. It's also running an updated 'Mariko' version of the Tegra X1 chip, that's said to be included in the upcoming Switch Lite. Nintendo isn't expected to announce the sale of these new systems, so in-store, you'll just have to keep an eye out for the new packaging.
