Nintendo Switch – OLED Model w/ White Joy-Con - White

I have been a user of the original Nintendo Switch for years now and its easily been one of my favorite video game consoles I have owned! I was excited to get my hands on the new OLED switch, and so far I have not been let down! ORIGINAL VS OLED (HANDHELD MODE) - Simply put, the new OLED switch is better than the original in almost every area! Right out of the box you can see the big improvements and its well worth it. - The larger screen makes handheld gaming feel more immersive and having small bezels makes it feel more modern. - The OLED screen is truly a game changer. It’s insanely brighter, the colors pop which really makes games feel so vibrant, and just overall creates a much better experience in handheld mode. - The kickstand is SO much better! Its the entire length of the switch and can be set at different angles. Just overall makes it feel a lot more sturdy and is what the original switch should have came with. - The speakers are also much improved! They are frontward facing and produce a better more impactful sound. - The OLED switch comes with 64 GB standard which is also much better than the 32 GB on the original switch. - The improved dock on the OLED looks fantastic! Just some minor cosmetic improvements makes it look better, and I’d say overall the switch fits in their slightly more snug and secure than before. OLED IN DOCKED MODE: - The biggest complaint by everyone is going to be how the Switch OLED does nothing to improve the Switch’s performance in docked mode. There is no 4K or even HDR support which is very disappointing. - That being said, if you use the Switch in docked mode 100% of the time than you likely will not see any benefits from the new OLED switch besides the larger storage. FINAL VERDICT: - For me, I use the Switch in handheld mode a lot. So the OLED Switch is an absolute home run for me. The screen, speakers, kickstand, just about everything about the handheld experience has been improved and I have really enjoyed using it. - In my opinion, the OLED Switch is only $50 more than the original and completely justifies this price increase. Any new user who has never owned a Nintendo Switch should absolutely buy the OLED Switch! And if you already own the Switch but are curious about making the jump to OLED, you will not be disappointed whatsoever!

I was not a big fan of the screen on the original switch, this is more catered towards the handheld users and also to drive people to play it handheld more. I love it, you can immediately tell how much bigger the screen is as soon as you power it on. Vibrant colors, deep blacks and it feels like you’re playing at a high refresh rate. You won’t regret picking one up!

Immediately upon powering it on, you appreciate the popping colors and inky blacks of the screen. That being said, if you own a Switch V2, there really isn’t a point to purchase this. A case can be made for people like me coming from a launch day Switch, double the battery life in handheld is a massive boon.

I’ve been wanting to buy a Nintendo Switch for a while but I waited for the new OLED and it was worth it, basically is the same game console as before but with a better screen that gives a great crystal clear HD game vision on all games. The only changes I’ve seen on this switch is the HD screen, the location of the microSD goes , the kickstand ( much better than the previous Nintendo Switch) and an internal 64GB. The speaker could’ve been a little better but overall this Nintnedo switch is awesome. I couldn’t get the black and white color but this blue and red neon is as great looking. I will recommend that you leave the protecting adhesive film that came with and also you should get a screen protection for the screen since it’s made out of glass.

This is a much bigger upgrade than I expected from my Switch Lite. The screen is simply outstanding, and feels much bigger than I thought it would be. The colors pop, the contrast is infinite, and the darks are pitch black. Despite the larger screen size, resolution doesn’t seem adversely affected. The kickstand is worlds better than the original. It feels beefy, and holds its position at almost any angle. The sound is great, but honestly, I don’t notice too much of a difference. The white Joycons are clean and crisp. If you don’t have a Switch, or only have a Switch Lite or Launch Switch, this is an absolute must. If you have a Switch V2, it’s debatable.

The moment you turn it on to set it up , the screen looks amazing! Games look so much better. The built quality is more premium. Of course it has the same internals , but all the new features make up for it.

I was pretty skeptical when Nintendo came out with a higher priced Switch.. I told myself “really, it’s just a bigger screen and I play it on my TV most of the time” But it really surprised me when I plugged it in and turned it on, I saw how beautiful the OLED screen is. Much better than it’s predecessor. I think I will be playing the handheld version a little more often.

A great product. I’ve had the original as wel as the lite and this does make the portable experience so much better. The screen is very crispy - you would think such a small adjustment to 7’ would sound weak on paper but it’s perfect. I’m amazed with the colors and overall representation. The stand is so much better. It’s not flimsy. On airplanes, when I tried to have it stay up on the tray, no good. This new stand works like a charm. No regrets making the plunge - Nintendo nailed it. It’s plenty fast/snappy for me, and I know lots looking for more speed and feeds, but you don’t need it. It plays all my games very well.
