    Nintendo review

    The Nintendo Switch OLED is a fantastic upgrade for anyone who enjoys handheld gaming. The new 7-inch OLED screen is incredibly vibrant and colorful, making games look better than ever. The console itself feels more solid, thanks to an improved kickstand that's perfect for playing on a table. Plus, the sound quality has been enhanced with better speakers, making for a more immersive experience without needing headphones. The extra 64GB of storage is a nice bonus, giving you more space to download and store games. For those who play a lot online, the new dock comes with a wired LAN port for a more stable connection. However, it's worth noting that the overall performance and battery life are the same as the original Switch. If you primarily play on your TV, the upgrades might not be as noticeable. But for handheld gamers, the improved screen and sound quality make the Switch OLED a worthwhile investment.

    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.

    Small Change, Monumental Difference

    For portable players, this upgrade is a huge one, the increased size and quality of the display, the new Kickstand and Speakers add up to a great value! The Contrast and Colors on the screen make me want to go back and play all the games in my library just to see how much bigger and better they look in portable now. The blacks are true black, and the general picture just pops significantly more and it really must be seen in person to appreciate. The size of the screen is also insane, while only about an inch bigger, in real use it feels WAYYYYYY more sizable and immersive. The Kickstand is similar to a Surface Pro, infinitely adjustable and reliable, doesn't fall off If you look at it wrong thank god. The speakers seem much clearer and louder but I haven't compared side by side. Also, the Dock is quite nice to look at, added Ethernet is a bonus as well!

    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.

    Surprised my wife with this Nintendo Switch OLED for our 1st anniversary. She was over the moon! Picking up at my local Best Buy was simple and easy and with friendly service from staff. The switch packaging couldn't be more perfect. The OLED display produced a vivid image when used in all 3 modes such as handheld, table top, and television. This also came with different controllers like the joycon grip and the joycon straps that lets her chose how she wants to play a game. Battery life is up to 9 hours which was tested and approved by her, and charging is fast! This was the best gift I've ever given and I recommend this to anyone who enjoys playing games daily, or even on occasions. It's perfect for those rainy days!

    The Oled version of the Switch is Amazing! The colors are vibrant and crystal clear. If you enjoy hand held mode, this is for you. It’s just the right size and the new kickstand is much better as well. Get this Nintendo Switch before it is no longer available. You won’t regret it!

    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 grew up playing on GameBoys, Nintendo DS, and Wii. After the Wii I grew up and felt like I would never see myself playing anymore video games anymore. I recently gave in and got the Nintendo Switch completely forgot how to even operate these things but now I am obsessed again. I live my switch it is so convenient and the screen is so clear and vibrant. The package came sooner than expected and I had no issues with it. I love that you can buy several more of the detachable remotes for this one and have a game night with friends and family. It’s definitely worth the hype and is fun to play by yourself but also makes game nights so much fun with other people. So it is definitely versatile and very portable. It also has a little stand on the back of it so you can set it to where you don’t have to hold it. The pic shows a brown controller but that’s because I bought several other detachable remotes and you can get any color but this one originally comes with two white ones.

    Absolutely Worth the Upgrade! I recently switched to the OLED model, and the difference is stunning. The 7" OLED screen is vibrant and crisp—games look more immersive than ever. The adjustable stand is a huge improvement for tabletop play, and the enhanced audio makes handheld gaming more enjoyable. Setup was easy, and the Joy-Cons feel responsive and fun, especially for multiplayer games. I do wish it came with more internal storage, but adding a microSD card solved that quickly. If you're debating between this and the standard model, the OLED screen alone makes it worth it. Highly recommend for both casual and serious gamers!

    I really like the alternative colors on consoles, so this was on my radar for a while. My first experience with an OLED screen was the PS Vita, and it had such a beautiful image quality. This switch became a must buy for me, and I don't regret my purchase one bit. The bigger screen and beautiful image quality is worth every penny. I hope Nintendo's next console ships with an OLED screen from the start of the generation. Highly recommended if you are in the market for a new switch.

    AFTER 84 YEARS

    After 3 years of wanting a Switch, I finally got my hands on one, lol! In 2021 when the OLED vers came out, my partner and I tried to get it but we couldn't cause we never pre-ordered and we weren't gonna be scalped for a Switch. So, we waited (and forgot that we wanted one) for a year and change and finally! Having played and observed both base and OLED models, the OLED really outshines the base. The colours pop more, the additional 2" of screen make the gaming experience more fulfilling. It also just feels bigger in the hand despite the dimensions being the same! If you ever wanted a Switch, I say get the OLED! You'll be happy.

    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.

    I'm actually enjoying it more than I imagined. The extra battery life is great. The brightness makes games vibrant. It runs noticeably better on some difficult games (hello Pokemon). If you only play at home docked, buy whatever is cheapest. But if you travel a lot (which my job now requires) this is amazing for long trips and down time. When my buddy has the wheel I'm doing great on my OLED Switch.

    Originally, I bought the LCD version, but after seeing my daughter and watching YouTube videos, I returned the LCD one and got the OLED version, and it is worth the $50 difference. The colors pop now. And the handheld is worth playing now. And the bigger screen makes playing handheld much easier on the eyes. I wish Best Buy carried the bundle in store. Could have saved some money on purchasing the Mario game separately.

    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.

    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.
