    Definitely worth the investment for newcomers to the switch and people who wanna upgrade the old model it has pretty much better everything better sound kickstand screen contrast black levels etc the only thing i wish they would change is the chip that powers it it tends to lag on certain games but not nearly as bad as the old model

    Amazing product, my son loves to play games and the colorful graphics of the games are a special attraction. Excellent definition in Nintendo games, but be careful when the games are from other manufacturers because the quality drops, much more due to the game developer than the Nintendo product. I'm already looking at accessories so I can continue to take my video game wherever I want.

    It's a nintendo Switch. It plays nintendo games. It has a bigger screen and noticeably better battery life. Nothing more to say about it. Mine works the way it's supposed to so i'm good with it. Oh, and I haven't had any drift issues with the joycons so far.

    Definitely happy that I went with OLED. The colors are well defined across the spectrum. I haven't had to delete any games when downloading a new one yet. Everything moves pretty seemless regardless of docked or handheld.

    Bought a V1 Switch back in 2020 and it stopped working, spent the extra $50 over another LCD Switch to get the OLED and will not go back. Better kickstand, bigger brighter screen, and noticeably better battery life

    Amazing work by Best Buy they were very helpful and efficient. Ten out of ten recommended. My Nintendo switch runs and play AMAZING. This is one more great thing to have. It is portable and easy to use. Best Buy had it ready in 1hr after my online purchase.

    Not the full upgrade we all want but it is a nice addition. Coming from an OG Switch, the battery life and screen are quite a nice upgrade. Speakers sound good and the overall improvements make me want to play more undocked than I usually do. You also get 64gb of storage now instead of 32gb. Still not enough but its better than nothing. Overall its a 4/5 for me. Having a ethernet port on the new dock is a nice addition and the portable upgrades are awesome, but it still could use a better internal chip for 4k output and just overall frame rate improvements on more demanding games. The Tegra X1 is very outdated at this point but gets the job done for what it is worth

    I finally bought a Switch after wanting one for years now. Glad I waited, because the OLED version looks beautiful. The screen is bright & the contrast is amazing. Love the portability, and the option to also play on my TV/Monitor. The console is worth it just for the Nintendo exclusive games.

    If you don't have a nintendo switch yet then this is the one to get. Bigger display and better battery life (due to OLED display). The kickstand is much better and provides more stability when setting it up on a table. If you already have a switch and are not looking to have another then its not worth the upgrade.

    My daughter received this switch for her birthday and she absolutely loves it. The screen is nice and large and that makes for easy gameplay. The whole family likes to play games on it. We really like how you can connect to your TV for more fun. It's like playing the Wii, except in a more travel friendly version.

    Definitely worth the $50 if you're shopping for a switch this holiday season. If you already own one then ask yourself if you do handheld alot, it is much better if you taking it around with those little improvement (screen size, oled battery life, and kick stand). Otherwise it similar to old switch when dock.

    BEAUTIFUL OLED screen makes all games POP

    I LOVE this OLED Switch SOOO much!! I had played with a switch before but never got one myself because I know as with Nintendo History that a more advanced version would eventually be released and even though it was sad to not have a 4K dock like rumours talked about for years, this OLED Screen is SOO BEAUTIFUL!! I'm a techie and artist who loves my visuals so I have high standards in screens. OLED screens generally are all good due to the tech allowing for deep to full black color values. This was SOO worth the wait because it's so vibrant, so deep of blacks you cant tell difference between display and bezel!, Twice the storage as old model so most people won't need to upgrade storage, a bigger screen so it actually utilitizes the amount of space it should have in the first place, the speakers are improved but most importantly the kickstand is the whole back bottom half with a beautiful and strong hinge so you have FULL angle control with reliability! If you can afford it it's DEFINITELY worth the upgrade and if you don't have a switch this is the ONE to get!!!

    Best Console I’ve ever owned

    From Super Nintendo to PS5 the Nintendo switch is the best console I’ve ever owned. So user friendly, portable, and with the extreme number of ports from other consoles there’s no end to the games you can play. Including the two best games ever made BOTW and TOTK which you can only play on switch, both games are beautiful btw. Where the switch struggles is the resolution and performance during some more intensive gaming but with 99% of games you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the ease of gaming whether on a Tv or handheld.

    Amazingly portable, the screen is beautiful. One thing that wasn’t clear to me at first is the motion control of the entire unit when it’s out of the dock. I thought the reported drifting problem was on steroids at first. Great pickup for traveling leisure and killing time. Breath of the Wild is breathtaking.

    Great Update if You Play Handheld!

    To preface this, I bought my OLED to replace my OG 2017 launch Switch. I only ever play my Switch in handheld, and when this was first announced I was skeptical if the upgrade would be worth it. My OG Switch was starting to show its age (with thousands of gametime hours) with battery life issues and loud cooling fans, so I took the plunge about a month after release. I can wholeheartedly say I LOVE THE UPGRADE. The smaller bezels and OLED screen are huge gamechanges for handheld players, the better sound and battery life is very welcomed as well! I can't speak to those who play docked, but for handheld users, the screen really does make a difference. My only small complaints are that 1) there seems to be some screen variances with slight green tint (does not effect gameplay however) and 2) because the OLED is ever so slightly wider, my Satisfye grip (as well as grips from other companies) will not work with it. Despite these two small quirks (again, they aren't major issues and don't affect how I enjoy playing) I'm incredibly happy with the upgrade.

    I love this toy! The graphics are amazing compared to the previous models; especially with the bigger screen. You enjoy the handheld experience a lot more. Just be mindful of the joysticks; a bit gentle sometimes.

    Great update to those who have had the OG switch and to those who are just getting started. Like everyone, I we would've hoped for more power, but having a better screen and a bigger battery it's a really nice welcome!
