    So much better than a regular switch. And although the switch 2 is out, this one might be better. The stand is durable and it still uses the classic joycon design. It’s great for the person who wants a classic switch and wants and better screen

    We have the previous Switch and so this is an upgrade. Not too much different other than the screen is a bit bigger, the dock received a little do over, and the graphics appear a bit more vibrant. If purchasing a Switch for the first time. I would recommend to pay the additional $50 to get this switch. In hand held mode when playing for long hours, I think putting thumb grips on the controls helps with thumb fatigue.

    I waited awhile before finally purchasing and I don’t regret at all ! I love how versatile it is , from playing on the tv or in your hands . The screen is so big and the graphics are stunning even the sound . I haven’t had not one problem , I just wish I purchased earlier .

    The screen is much better quality than i expected, bright and the touch screen is very reaponsive and quick. Battery life lasts hours during game play, much better than othrr hand held devices. Connects well to your tv, after long game play can sometimes glitch for about a second but infrequent and very brief. Surprisingly durable and easy to setup. Lots of games!

    Got the OLED for the larger screen, since I often will play using that. It works well and can dock into a TV. If you’re going to use the dock most of the time, you probably don’t need the OLED model. But the larger screen size and kickstand are great additions if that will be your primary screen.

    I bought this as a gift and it was wonderfully received. While video games systems come quickly to younger folks thats not the case with us old people. The controls are easy to learn, the graphics are great and the system was pretty easy to set up. The family really enjoys playing the Switch.

    Well i did it.. i upgraded my switch to the oled model.. im glad i did.. it was hard to upgrade something going in thinking it was gonna be the same.. but you would be suprised how much of a difference that slight screen size increase does.. not to mention the oled.. vivid and contrast are legit.. would i recomend upgrading if you already have a switch? Well if your like me and you play in handheld mode definitely.. if you play docked? Not a chance lol

    BEST GIFT EVERRRRRRR! I purchased this as a last minute gift for my children, I had been on the fence about it since we already own a PS5, but this is so much better for their age ranges/interests. They are truly enjoying the platform and graphics and eased right into it. The wide range of multiplayer games available and portability of the unit is well worth the investment. Highly recommend!

    After discovering how much fun it is to have local multiplayer with friends after years of using PlayStation, I went out and promptly got my own switch. I won't pretend it's as powerful as other current generation consoles, but the games are designed to be less intensive to run and the fun factor makes up for any hardware deficiencies. I am personally not of the opinion that OLED displays make enough of a visual difference to be worth the extra price, especially with such a small screen. However, I do still recommend this model just because the screen size is larger. You will also want to get an sd card for additional storage space if you play many games.

    The switch came with everything advertised in working condition without any issues. I had it shipped to me didn't experience any problems. Everything was great the screen, controllers, and stand all there. Nothing seems to be amiss and was what I was expecting. My teenage son didn't have any complaints and we all can relate that's next to impossible to achieve so I am extremely happy and satisfied with the product.

    What a step up from the first model. Not only is this switch screen bigger the OLeD is such a game changer with the color quality and clarity. This immerses me in the game even more and allows for more game play on my screen. What a step up from the OG and so worth the price if you can catch it before it sells out! Nintendo never lets me down and my friend loves her system! She’s a first time user and she plays Mario Kart with ease!

    I had the original switch and i upgraded to the OLED with little apprehension. I mean if you look at the comparison its the switch with more memory and a slightly bigger/better screen. However i still fell in love with this console bc i spend most of my gameplay in handheld mode and it has made a world of difference. If you find yourself playing mostly in handheld mode it is very much worth the upgrade!

    Very nice upgrade from a gen 1 switch. The screen is very high quality. I would compare it to an iPhone or iPad screen. Speakers are definitely louder. Improved kickstand is great, I was always accidentally popping out the kickstand on my old switch. The dock includes an Ethernet port now, which is great for downloading digital versions of games, and an additional USB port. Overall, it’s a nice slight upgrade that should hold you over until the next generation switch.

    I bought this as an upgrade to the launch Nintendo Switch I've had for years. The OLED is a nice improvement, but most importantly the battery life has been extended. Beyond that; however, I haven't noticed many other changes. I don't know if I'd necessarily recommended buying this Switch as a replacement, but if it's your first Switch than I'd certainly opt for the OLED model.
