    Got this as an upgrade from the regular Nintendo switch. Long story short, best purchase ever. Games run nuch smoother, with no lagging. Graphics are so much better, as is battery life. The larger screen even makes playing in hand held mode feel more natural, and I can actually play without being connected to my TV constantly. If you can afford the extra between this model and tye original switch, hands down the oled wins.

    I absolutely love it! Compared to the standard model the slight size increase on the OLED screen really makes a difference! One of my favorite purchases .So impressed. I'm really glad I went with the OLED version. Battery life is amazing. Graphics are pretty good. It's worth the price difference. Very satisfied with this product.

    Great Product! Nintendo never seems to let us down! From the amazing graphics, to the comfortably manageable joy-cons. And the multiple different ways we’re able to enjoy this console. Whether it’s on the tv as a family, or handheld anywhere solo or with friends. I know in our household we love playing together for sure. Especially Mario kart!

    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.

    I had the original Nintendo switch prior to purchasing this version. I really enjoy the new and improved screen on this system. The graphics look ten times better on this system vs the last. This was a much needed upgrade!

    Absolutely loving my Nintendo Switch OLED Model! As someone whose first gaming love was the original Gameboy - where I lost countless hours to Tetris, Super Mario Land, and Zelda: Link's Awakening - this isn't just an upgrade, it's like stepping into a whole new era of gaming. The OLED screen's colors and sharpness are a massive leap from the days of the pixelated pea-green Gameboy screen. And for fellow gamers with big hands, do yourself a favor and grab the Hori Split Pad Pro controller. It's a game-changer that lets you dive into long gaming sessions without feeling like you're about to get carpal tunnel. This console is a perfect blend of nostalgia and cutting-edge tech!

    I absolutely love this version of the switch. I have owned the original release and the switch light and enjoyed them as well. The OLED however, is stunning. It has great graphics and great battery life. This is one of my best purchases. Also, using the Best Buy credit card made it very easy. Will definitely use it again.

    Much Much Better Than I Expected

    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.

    Gifted to my husband for his birthday. He loves it so much. Ease of use, controllers have bright colors and performs really well. No lags so far. I thought he's the only one who will enjoy playing the games but it looks like wife is enjoying more.

    I’ve had the Nintendo Switch OLED for 2 years and it is such fun. I am partial to the OLED because it’s the first Nintendo Switch that I’ve owned. I love being able to play on the TV as well as handheld on the go. Nintendo Switch online is the BEST for all the old school games and nostalgia. Highly recommend! :)

    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.

    So being a tech member I was able to save 60 not purchasing the additional insurance. We’ll worth the year fee of less than that I believe. Then used my BB card and either chose the months of interest free, or 20 dollars off. I would have never purchased this from another store. Best Buy has the best support, best staff at the Grove City location. Along with the product. My daughter loves this! She can play alone, play with her sisters, play on her tv, play in the OLED screen this comes with. There has been no pause in movement with the characters, animation is crisp…well worth the cost. Games are amazing. I’m glad I purchased this one rathe than the lite.

    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.
