Customer Ratings & Reviews

Picked this up to play Tears of the Kingdom and honestly this model's shell is beautiful and the OLED screen really, really pops. I haven't owned a Nintendo system since the Nintendo 64 (I went with PlayStation since), so this felt extremely nostalgic in many ways. It's mainly my system for Nintendo titles as I use my PS5 for graphics-intensive games. Games for the system are expensive and rarely go on sale from what I've seen, which is a disappointment but understandable if you know Nintendo's business model. Be aware this is by no means a "pro" model. The only difference between this and the standard Switch is the OLED screen tech, the screen size, and the shell color. If you play primarily docked, maybe save yourself a few bucks and grab the older model. However, if you want the latest and best version for portable and docked playing, grab this model. Also grab yourself a pro controller if you plan to play docked because though this thing has a grip for your joycons, the pro controller is night and day in terms of comfort.

The Nintendo Switch LED model has been an absolute joy to own and play. The console's sleek design and vibrant LED display make games come to life with stunning visuals and colors. The versatility of the Switch, allowing me to seamlessly switch between handheld and docked modes, provides the ultimate flexibility to play on the go or enjoy a more immersive gaming experience on the big screen. The Joy-Con controllers are comfortable to hold and offer precise controls, enhancing the gameplay experience. With a vast library of games available, ranging from beloved Nintendo classics to third-party titles, there is always something exciting to play. The multiplayer capabilities of the Switch have brought countless hours of fun and bonding with friends and family, whether it's playing locally or connecting online. The battery life has also been impressive, allowing for extended gaming sessions without interruption. Overall, the Nintendo Switch LED model delivers on its promise of portable and versatile gaming, providing endless entertainment and unforgettable gaming moments.

I was excited to get a Switch but I didn’t realize just how much I’d use it until I had one in my hands. I clocked almost thirty hours into Fire Emblem: Three Houses the first weekend I got it lol From playing my favorite RPGs that are Switch exclusive to watching YouTube on it while I take a bath, the OLED screen is absolutely stunning. This is one of my favorite purchases that I’ve made in a long time!

I only knocked off a star because the light has way more stand by time. Otherwise this is the best of the switch systems. The screen is gorgeous, a little bit more screen estate than the og switch. On certain games like RE 6 it has a very crisp surround like sound but still Not nearly loud enough for my taste but non of the switches are. Charges quite normal. The processor is noticably better at some things like deleting games and transitioning from one screen to the next. The joy cons last a very long time and the kickstand is awesome. When you play really colorful games like Mario or Zelda you will see what a difference the oled can make. I love my oled.

this is a great console to own. I'm really liking the color white on this oled switch. First time owning a device with oled. It is much more vibrant and clearer to play games on the screen. I really think the benefit of owning this oled switch is it being portable and for on the go. Other than just having it dock, then oled is out of the picture. I like the new dock, it more round on the top and the back door opens and unlatches from the main dock. The ethernet port is a nice feature, i think it is nice to take advantage of speed and stable connection or what not. I like the screen is much bigger, it feels premium and not cheap. if this is your second switch and you own one already, i think it not much of an upgrade but only for the experience of oled screen and only if you play in handheld mode all the time. Or if you have one already and you are giving the other one to your friend, kids, or family member than yes. If you have money to spare, sure why not. For the extra 50 bucks, i think it is really for the bigger screen and the oled feature with the ethernet port. Nintendo switch is a great system, but if you looking for major software or hardware upgrade, inside the nintendo switch, i say wait a couple more years or so until nintendo do 4k. If you been wanting to upgrade or this is your first nintendo switch, i say go with oled switch, it will be a great experience. I wonder if nintendo switch is going the same route as the Nintendo 3ds. anyways. enjoy

If you have the original Switch, and it still works just fine, you probably don't need this. That being said, I had the original and I got this... and I don't regret it! The obvious bonuses are the new screen and kickstand. It's essentially the same device when docked, but in handheld mode the experience is far better with the OLED panel and the slimmer bezels. I don't often use the kickstand, but it's really good — especially since the predecessor's was a total joke. There are other benefits too, and they're not advertised well so you may not be aware of them. First, the speakers are far better in this model! At full volume, it's quite loud — and there's actually decent bass now, which you needed external sound for on the previous Switch. The internal storage is doubled too (64 GB, up from 32) and it's finally a decent size for what it is. (Still get an SD card though... mine is 256 GB and it's so great to have!) Lastly, battery life is phenomenal: the original died far too quickly, the silent revision was improved, but this blows both out of the water. When playing local multiplayer with a friend who has the revision of the original, we both started at 100% but when his was at 1% and needed to charge mine still had 29% left. I was also playing with higher brightness and volume settings than he was, and I turned mine on a few minutes before he did. Basically, this is a battery BEAST.

Honestly I'm not sure why it took me this long to get this console. I grew up with a Nintendo 64 at home, played various Nintendo portables when I traveled. Gaming was my escape from the dredgery, and Nintendo was my outlet. Why I waited around 7 years since the debut of the Switch- or even worse, this version being out for months- is beyond me... Handheld, table top, and docked mode all work perfectly on this console. The kickstand for table mode is even upgraded from the original design, making it very sturdy. The screen itself performs beautifully, with crystal clear color and details. Joy-cons may take a little getting used to if, like me, you've played on Sony consoles in your adult life. I will say that the controls are not too difficult to learn though. My only (trivial) complaint is that the white Joy-Cons are not available outside of this package, especially if not counting knock-offs. It's best to get either an additional stand-alone set or another type of controller if you want to keep the included controllers clean and working properly. Tldr: it's an awesome, versatile console that may spring up warm, fuzzy nostalgia

Lose this switch. Bigger and brighter than the original. Even when I get the Switch 2 I plan to keep it and pass it down to the kids. Still a great handheld and portable. Great battery life and smooth picture for games.

The Nintendo Switch OLED is better than I expected. Even though there aren't any differences in terms of performance, the bigger, glossier OLED screen with an improved kickstand makes the console feel more premium than the original Nintendo Switch. The OLED screen brings out the darks and the brights, which makes me play on it more than on my TV.

I love the graphics, resolution and portability, plus the battery lasts quite a while. I never thought I could have so much fun with a device like this!!! I bought it for my 6 yo son and we ended up playing together!!!! I even bought another controller for my self!!! I find it difficult to play with the controllers detached from the console let alone using just one of them. They are to small for my hands, that's why I bought the other controller, however my son's favorite way to play is precisely with the controllers detached. Bottom line: the console can be enjoyed by people of almost any age group in more than one way!!!

As a nintendo switch owner since original model's launch, the console quickly became my favorite (own most nintendo consoles, ps4 and xbox one). The portability and ease of plug and play to tv is great. Though some minor things made me feel it could be better, such as having sturdier joycon attachments when handheld, and a nicer screen (we are all spoiled by our smartphone screens). Switch OLED fixed those complaints. Console as a whole feels sturdier, with more metal parts, and the OLED screen is on another level. Contrast and color saturation feel even better than contemporary smartphones' screens. Screen is also slightly larger than original model, but when handheld is feels like an entirely new console. Battery life is better than original model. Only thing that time will tell is if new joycons present the same issues with drifting. If you haven't bought a switch yet, this is the best model to get. For tv play it only holds advantage of dock built in ethernet port. But for handheld, this is by far the best console yet (brighter better colors than original ps vita, and all epic switch library).

Love the switch oled. Although the internals are the same as original nintendo switch, the oled screen screen makes everything feel fresh and new. Bigger, vibrant screen makes the gaming experience so much better. The switch oled also feels more premium with a bigger battery life and much better kick stand.

The screen is beautiful and the colors are vibrant. It runs smoothly and my games don’t lag. One of my favorite purchases!

The sturdier frame, better/bigger/beautiful screen, improved battery, great kickstand, and increased storage make the OLED Switch a no brainer for people who play significantly in handheld and still have the OG 2017 Switch. It also finally gives an enjoyable/adjustable tabletop mode experience. It could be worth the wait for next gen/rumored Switch Pro if you have the 2019 V2 Switch though. You're still getting the same software experience and the V2 battery is just as good. Not to mention the V2 Switch has all kinds of special editions. The ergonomics are definitely bad on the Switch though. A grip/case is a must for hands other than a child's. I've been enjoying the NeoGrip from Skull & Co a lot this time around. I like that you can still use the kickstand while it's on (but know that it doesn't really work if you have the big grips on).. My condolences to those who aren't/weren't able to snag one. The shortage sucks and scalpers are the worst. ='[

Probably the best game console ever made. Yes, it's underpowered compared to the PS and XBox systems, but does it really matter in this day and age? In my opinion, no, it does not. It's powerful enough to provide an excellent gaming experience. And that's not to mention the fact that it works both as a standard console and as a portable, which gives you the best of both worlds without having to compromise too much. The OLED model is absolutely superb, with excellent image quality and a larger display than the original. You'll want to get a large capacity microSD card if you plan on using the eshop for purchasing larger titles, but for those who go for smaller, cheaper indie games, the 64 GB of storage will suffice.All in all, this system is still worth its price and then some.

After our screen to our original Switch was broken, we decided to pick up the OLED model and are so glad we did. The screen is a HUGE upgrade, and the kickstand runs the entire width of the body with much more position flexibility than the original. On our original, the kickstand was broken off within a few months, but this one feels much more sturdy. The only downside is that our 3rd party travel docking cable does not seem to be compatible with the OLED, and appears to be a common issue, so if you plan on traveling and docking, you’ll have to bring the provided dock along with you. The dock is also upgraded, with extra ventilation and an overall sleeker look. If you’re picking up your first Switch and not sure which to get, this OLED model is worth the extra money for the larger, more vibrant screen along with the improved kickstand.

I recently purchased the Nintendo Switch – OLED Model from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! The vibrant OLED screen makes a huge difference — colors are richer, blacks are deeper, and games just look incredible whether I’m playing handheld or docked on my TV. The improved kickstand feels much sturdier than the original model, and the upgraded audio really enhances the overall experience. I also love the sleek white Joy-Cons — they give the console a modern and premium look. Best Buy’s service was great as always — fast delivery and secure packaging. For anyone thinking about upgrading from the standard Switch, this OLED version is absolutely worth it. A fantastic product and an awesome buying experience!

After owning the normal switch for about 2 years and then upgrading to this one, the differences are quite noticeable. For starters, OLED screens are awesome and gives me an much improved mobile experience. The size of the large screen is also surprisingly noticeable. At first I thought, eh it’s not much bigger. But after playing on it for some time, it’s just enough bigger to fulfill a “sweet spot” I think the normal switch’s screen is just a tad too small. The improved kickstand is also super useful. I used the old kickstand on the normal switch maybe once or twice but with this new one I’m finding I’m using it much more often especially with the adjustable tilt. I also really enjoy having a dedicated onboard Ethernet port. I would’ve definitely liked a more powerful Nintendo switch but this is a great upgrade nonetheless.

The Nintendo Switch OLED model is an exceptional upgrade to an already beloved gaming console. One of the standout features is undoubtedly the vibrant and immersive 7-inch OLED screen. The colors are rich and vibrant, and the contrast is noticeably improved, enhancing the overall visual experience. This upgrade is particularly appreciated in handheld mode, where the stunning display brings games to life with impressive clarity. The build quality of the Nintendo Switch OLED model is top-notch. The 7-inch OLED screen is housed in a sleek and sturdy design that feels comfortable to hold. The kickstand on the back has been redesigned for better stability, providing a more enjoyable tabletop gaming experience. Additionally, the audio quality has been enhanced, making gaming sessions even more immersive with clearer and more dynamic sound. The versatility of the Nintendo Switch remains one of its strongest points, allowing players to seamlessly transition between handheld, tabletop, and TV modes. The OLED model continues to uphold this flexibility while delivering an upgraded visual experience. The improved display and overall design make it a fantastic choice for both casual and dedicated gamers alike. Another commendable aspect is the backward compatibility with the existing library of Nintendo Switch games and accessories. Owners of the original Switch or Switch Lite can easily upgrade without losing access to their favorite titles or needing to purchase new accessories. Overall, the Nintendo Switch OLED model is a worthy addition to the Switch family, offering an enhanced gaming experience with its impressive display, improved audio, and refined design. Whether playing on the go or enjoying a game night with friends and family, the Switch OLED model continues to deliver the fun and innovation that Nintendo is known for.

As someone who still has a not in working order Gameboy, this is truly amazing to me. I love that I'm able to play most of the games I grew up on and their modern equivalent. Both of my adult kids have the Switch. My daughter had been trying to get me to buy one so we can play Animal Crossing together. I ended up buying one when she was here. I haven't put it down since I got it. Overall I love the portability of the system. The OLED screen is brilliant. The colors are very vibrant and the size of the screen is just right. Being able to hook the Switch up to my TV is also something I didn't know I wanted. Now I can play Zelda on a huge TV compared to what I used to play it on when I played the first one. It's a great system and I look forward to playing it for as long as I have one.
