A Console Update Worth Getting
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I owned the regular version of the Switch prior to getting this one, so I already knew I liked playing Switch games. When I bought the OLED version, I was not sure how the upgrades would feel in practice. However, I am very happy with them. The larger OLED screen is a great enhancement that does not tank the battery life in any noticeable way, and the kickstand improvement makes propping this up to watch some stuff in bed really nice. Those two upgrades alone made this a worthwhile purchase over the regular model for me. My one drawback is I filled up the internal storage trying redownload all my games (the same problem I encountered on the original version - it is not unique to this model). You will probably want to get a MicroSD memory card if you plan to load up on digital games.

Nintendo - Switch – OLED Model
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As a gaming enthusiast, I recently purchased the Nintendo Switch OLED Model gaming console, and here is my review of this gaming device. Firstly, the OLED screen of the new Switch left a profound impression on me. The screen boasts vibrant colors and high contrast, making game visuals more vivid and lifelike. Whether in handheld mode or connected to the TV, the picture quality is astonishing. Especially when playing visually stunning games like "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild," the new OLED screen truly enhances the gaming experience. Secondly, the performance of the Switch OLED Model has also seen significant improvements. Loading times are shorter, and games run more smoothly, allowing me to dive into the gaming world faster. The increased memory and processing power also mean I can download more games and apps without worrying about storage space issues. Another pleasing update is the upgraded built-in storage of the new Switch, which is now 64GB. While it might still be insufficient for some players, it's a step up from the previous 32GB. However, it's still recommended for players to equip a microSD card to further expand storage space, especially for those who download a lot of games. Apart from performance upgrades, the Switch OLED Model retains the versatile nature that the Switch series is known for. Whether for solo gaming, multiplayer cooperation, or using various control methods, this gaming console caters to the needs of different types of players. However, the new Switch isn't without some controversy. Some individuals might feel that the upgrades aren't substantial enough, especially considering the increase in price. Additionally, some players hope the new Switch will address certain issues that existed in previous versions, such as controller drift. All in all, the Nintendo Switch OLED Model gaming console is an intriguing upgrade. Its OLED screen and performance improvements make for a remarkable gaming experience. Despite some controversies, it remains a solid choice for players seeking better visuals and performance.

Great value!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded my switch from the original 2017 hardware and I will say this OLED version is a HUGE upgrade. Everything about the console is improved from the bigger and higher quality display to the complete rework of the kickstand. I haven’t experienced the joycon drift yet (hoping there isn’t any), but I do know that Nintendo will fix your controllers for free if you send it back to them so I’m not too worried. However, I will recommend that anyone who gets a switch do get an sd card (if you’re planning to get ANY games digitally) as the storage on the device itself is quite small. Very satisfied, do recommend!

My husband was right…
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the past few years my husband has been telling me i would probably enjoy a switch. Im not a gamer in any capacity. But i was playing stupid games on my phone that i had to watch a ton of ads for. Well I finally broke down and got one this past december. I have let him have this one win and relish in the fact he was actually right for once. I will say his suggestion of the OLED was a good one. Not having just an oversized gameboy but an entire gaming console makes it worth the price. Plus being able to take it with me on my monthly work trips and not even really having to charge it is my favorite feature.

Immersive Gaming Upgrade!

The kickstand upgrade provides more stability during tabletop gaming, adding to the versatility of the console. The storage capacity is ample for a variety of games, and the overall performance is smooth, whether I'm exploring open worlds or engaging in fast-paced action. The convenience of the detachable Joy-Con controllers adds a social element to gaming, perfect for multiplayer sessions. The build quality is sturdy, and the device feels comfortable in hand. The improved kickstand enhances tabletop gaming, providing multiple viewing angles to suit your preference. Overall, the Nintendo Switch OLED model is a must-have for gaming enthusiasts.

Beautiful vibrant OLED
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s hard to show in pictures how beautiful the screen on this Nintendo Switch is. You have to see it for yourself in person. If you’re reading this, I’m going to assume you already own a switch or switch lite. I happened to own a Og day 1 Nintendo switch and a switch lite, and I knew I wanted this OLED switch the minute they announced it. OLED screens are a technical marvel and are truly beautiful. I like many others am a little disappointed that the switch didn’t get a new processor for better performance but I am still happy with my purchase. The screen alone makes all the games look beautiful. Colors are vivid and contrast is amazing. When you play it in a dark room, the screen looks like it’s off when a black scene is displayed. Besides the new screen, there isn’t a whole lot new with this switch, the dock was improved a little along with the kickstand on the back. That is also a welcome update as the old models always tended to fall over because the kickstand was weak and small. Games still load a little slow, when compared to phones and newer consoles, so don’t expect a speed increase. It comes with the same power adapter and joycon grip as before. Would I recommend this? Yes and No. if you love your Nintendo switch and want the new beautiful screen, then I think you’ll be very happy buying it. If you’re ok with the screen quality of the older models and want to save money, then don’t rush out and buy it. Not much has changed. If you’re on the fence, try to get your hands on one to see the display in person.

Simply A Gorgeous Console
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am over the moon satisfied with the OLED Switch! I never owned the first Switch model but have played on a friend's. I can definitely say purchasing the OLED for the extra money is well worth it. The increased size of the screen is fantastic for a handheld console and the OLED black is just jaw-droppingly beautiful. I love the joy-cons to controller feature as well as it makes the jump from Xbox to the Switch very smooth. The joy-cons are also comfortable by themselves. I would have to say they fit in your hand nicer than the Wii remote did, in my opinion. Nintendo just did everything right with the OLED console. My TV is also an OLED so the transition from playing on the go to on the big screen incredible. The kickstand is wonderful. Makes playing super smooth and sharing your screen easy when friends are watching. The only thing I would suggest to Nintendo is that they make the HDMI cable longer. It is rather short and made it hard to keep my cable management clutter-free. Note: the top left corner has a bubble from when I put the screen protector I purchased on. There is nothing wrong with the screen itself. I play a good majority on the TV so I'm not too bothered by the bubble at the present time. I would highly recommend a screen protector so that you do not have to worry about the screen getting damaged as you slide the console into the docking station.

Nintendo scores big with Switch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the OG NES, but I've played on just about every iteration since then. The times certainly have changed too. The OLED model of the Nintendo Switch checks all of the boxes for me personally, as well as my family -- compact, portable, surprisingly good graphics on the built-in display, easy to connect to external display, straightforward UI/UX. Nintendo definitely got it right with this one.

Totally worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second switch, gave my old one to my kid and upgraded to the oled and I love it. It’s definitely worth the extra $50 for the oled model. I don’t really notice a difference in battery consumption either and that was my main worry about switching to oled. Would definitely recommend to family or friends or anyone reading this.

Initially Skeptical but Ultimately Satisfied
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I came from the OG switch first gen (non-upgraded battery) so this was nice step up for me. I was worried at first thinking the OLED upgrade would not be worth the $50 premium, but let me tell you — the extra screen real estate (almost an inch) along with the vibrant colors and higher peak brightness was enough to justify the higher price point, especially when playing handheld mode on games with a lot of action and finer details. If you’re like me who bounces between both dock and handheld mode, then this upgrade will be a welcome one. We use dock mode for family fun, but I also have twin 1-yr-olds who can’t fall asleep unless I’m with them, so I’ll find myself playing handheld at night. I have to say playing ToTK on the OLED is a game changer and much easier on the eyes. Overall, if you’re exclusively a handheld gamer, then the Lite variant will be enough (wifey has the Coral switch Lite and mostly plays Animal Crossing). On the other hand if you find yourself playing local multiplayer often or not fond of handheld gaming, then the original (non-OLED) switch is enough. For those who plan on using best of both worlds, I recommend the OLED switch variant. Regardless of what model you choose, all switch variants have equal processing power, so no performance is forfeited.

Shines Bright with Innovation
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently upgraded to the Nintendo Switch OLED model, and I must say, it has exceeded all my expectations. From the stunning display to the seamless gaming experience, this handheld console is a true game-changer. The standout feature of the OLED model is, of course, the brilliant OLED screen. The colors are vibrant, and the contrast is exceptional, making every game come to life with a level of detail that's truly immersive. Whether I'm exploring the vast landscapes of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" or racing through the streets of "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe," the visuals are simply breathtaking. The enhanced audio quality is another aspect that deserves praise. The built-in speakers deliver clear and crisp sound, adding an extra layer to the gaming experience. Of course, for those who prefer a more immersive audio experience, the option to connect headphones via the 3.5mm audio jack is a thoughtful addition. Portability has always been a strong suit of the Switch, and the OLED model maintains this versatility. The sleek design, coupled with the vibrant screen, makes gaming on the go an absolute delight. The battery life has also seen a subtle improvement, providing extended play sessions without constantly worrying about running out of juice. The hybrid nature of the console allows for a seamless transition between handheld and docked modes, ensuring that the gaming experience remains enjoyable regardless of the player's preference. The controls are responsive, and the Joy-Cons work flawlessly, providing a level of precision that's essential for a satisfying gaming session. In conclusion, the upgraded display, improved audio, and overall design make it a must-have for both dedicated Nintendo fans and newcomers alike. Whether you're a casual gamer or a seasoned enthusiast, the Switch OLED model is a five-star investment that delivers on all fronts.

Cool little gadget
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm super late to the Switch party, but with the OLED model coming out coupled with an itch to play Animal Crossing that would not go away, I decided to pick one up. I'm really happy with it so far. It's amazing to see how far Nintendo has come. Graphics are amazing and I just love the controls. I haven't tried using the dedicated controller yet nor have I connected it to a TV. The portability is the best part though.

Best Bang for your Buck Travel and Home Console
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Nintendo Switch is a far leap from the old Wii console. The fit, form, and ease of use it perfect. The OLED model is definitely worth the upgrade in price. Make sure you buy a Micro-SD card so you do not run out of space, which is easy to do. Definitely buy an extra set of controllers, another gaming controller, and the Mario kart steering wheels. This is perfect for an "on-the-go" type console and I use it all the time while I am traveling.

The Epitome of Portable Pleasure
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In a landscape swamped by titanic gaming consoles, the Nintendo Switch emerges as a breath of fresh, playful air. This nifty device embodies a blend of elegance, simplicity, and versatility, encapsulating the essence of fun that Nintendo has been synonymous with. As you unbox the Switch, you’re greeted by its minimalist yet robust design. Its sleek form factor is not just eye candy but a beckoning for hands to cradle it. The tactile joy-cons are a marvel, they sit snugly in palms, promising hours of comfortable gameplay. Comparing the Switch to its hefty counterparts - the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 may seem like pitting David against Goliaths. However, it’s the Switch’s nimble nature, coupled with an exhaustive game roster that places it in a league of its own. My sons, ardent gamers, find themselves gravitating towards the Switch more than the behemoths of gaming. It’s the allure of portable gaming, coupled with the charm of Nintendo’s character-driven narratives that has them hooked. The Nintendo Switch is not just a gaming console; it’s a narrative of joy, a chronicle of adventure, and a token of love from Nintendo. It’s a testament that in the world of gaming, fun reigns supreme over polygons and teraflops. With the Nintendo Switch, gaming is not confined to a room; it’s a boundless voyage, a portable joy, a switch to unbridled fun.
