    The Switch was a nice add to my everyday life. For someone who’s constantly moving around and is forced to keep my belongings minimal, this video game console has been quite amazing since it’s not only easy to use and quite affordable for today’s standards, but it does not take much space at all and can store it quite easily in my bag. There’s a wide variety of games available to so the Switch proves to be diverse and entertaining.

    An Upgrade From The Original

    This is my second Switch. Admittedly, I was skeptical of the Switch OLED because unlike the other major consoles of the previous generation, this was not meant to be a performance upgrade. Well, I watched some reviews on YouTube and read a few of them here. I eventually decided to just get it, and you know what? I was NOT disappointed! Everything from the build quality to the screen size feels like an improvement. The display is far more vibrant and - asthetically speaking - it looks right at home next to my PS5 and Xbox Series X. If you're deciding whether or not to get one, especially if you have the original, here is what I recommend: Yes. Get it. There are like 20 on the shelf RIGHT NOW. Pick up the box. Not the one's up front. The ones in the middle are fine. I did curbside pickup, so I don't know which one of the shelf they grabbed. Now, take it to the register. Okay, unlike the original, this one will run you $349.99 + tax, so between $370ish to about $385 if you live in one of those places with a ridiculous 10% sales tax. If you're looking for some games, might I recommend any Mario or Kirby title or if you're seeing this in May 2023, Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

    My fiancé and I purchased an original Switch a couple of years ago and its been a great console. But WOW after buying the OLED model its very difficult for me to use our old one. The screen size difference is noticable between the two. Everything is much brighter and more vibrant on the OLED model! Yes the resolution is the same on both consoles so it might not seem like an upgrade but it definitely is imo. The only two downsides for me is it's a little heavier than the original, and I wish it came with a little more storage than 64GBs.

    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.

    An amazing gaming experience

    As an avid gamer, I recently had the pleasure of diving into the world of gaming with this stunning device, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. Let's start with the display. The OLED screen is a game-changer, quite literally. The colors are vibrant, the contrast is striking, and the blacks are deep and rich, making every game come to life in ways I never thought possible on a handheld console, the visuals were simply breathtaking. But it's not just about the visuals; one of the standout features of the Switch OLED is its versatility. Whether you prefer to play in handheld mode, tabletop mode, or docked mode, the Switch adapts to your preferences seamlessly. The Joy-Con controllers are responsive and comfortable to hold. In terms of performance, the Switch OLED delivers where it counts. Games load quickly, and the system runs smoothly without any noticeable lag or stuttering. Overall, the Nintendo Switch OLED is more than just a gaming console. Whether you're a casual gamer or a seasoned veteran, the Switch OLED is a must-have addition to your gaming arsenal. Trust me; you won't be disappointed.

    The OLED screen is far better than the nintendo switch lite I had before. The product itself is twice as big. I'm a very satisfied customer. The device itself had one small little scuff/scratch on it which sucked opening it to find that. The box looked like it had been in a few battles, maybe on the pallets or rough handling of the box in store. Overall great product though!

    I really like and enjoy the bigger screen on the Oled model. The colors are so bright and makes the whole experience much more fun and satisfying. I also bought a personalized vinyl skin and a clear case for my Oled to keep it more protected and unique, so so far I’m loving it!

    The OLED Switch is a solid update to the original Switch. I held off for a long time, but ultimately decided it was worth it. The new screen is very nice and immediately noticeable. The updated stand design is 1000% better. WiFi seems better, and the new dock has integrated LAN in dock mode. The white looks awesome too imo. All and all, happy with the new OLED Switch.

    The switch turned out to be the best choice in a new gaming console I could have asked for! I had fallen out of the gaming world and the switch was the best console to get back in the game! Plus the OLED screen is so crisp and clear, it makes the gaming even more fun!

    Nintendo is always doing an amazing job at making me feel like a kid again! My favorite about my switch is being able to play it on both a dock, and as a handheld device on the go. I’ve been struggling to put my switch down since I’ve gotten it!
