    Best handheld gaming device on the market. Gaming speeds are very fast and graphics are way above average. Fortnite->Mario Kart, this thing is awesome!

    If you play mostly in handheld mode, it's a really nice upgrade over the original model. If you play on a TV, it's mostly the same thing.

    Good looking system. Sturdy kickstand. Not much of an upgrade over the last one to make both going forward. They need go keep the lite and this one and quit the old model with thr smaller screen. If yours nee to switch, id get this one. If you have the old one, no need to change

    Switch > Xbox + PlayStation combined

    I don’t know why it took so long for me to finally get a Switch, but it was one of the best gaming purchases I’ve ever made. For some reason, neither Microsoft nor Sony have it figured it out. Nintendo was way ahead of the game with the Switch. The fact that the Switch is both a handheld device AND a home console is such a game-changer. I love the fact that I can get some gaming done while waiting on car repairs, on a long flight, etc. Pro tip… the Switch is THE console for shmups (shoot-em ups). I’m not sure why, but there are a ton of Switch-exclusive shmups that you can’t find on other consoles. It’s a great console for JRPGs as well. I’m tired of waiting for Xbox and PlayStation to catch up. This is definitely the console for me.

    The best system I have ever purchased. Certainly I would say buying a Nintendo Switch is one of the best decisions ever with great exclusivity and portability and dock mode

    I work graveyard shifts 10:40pm-6:40am. The battery will last the entire shift by the time I clock out its at 30%-20%. Big improvement from the previous blue and red model. Its worth the buy!

    Cool video game console. OLED seems to make the graphics pop out more. Setting up was easy. I wish there were easier parental settings, but over all it is good. I do wish the color options were easier to buy, but certain colors were cheaper than other color options. Best Buy delivered it on time.

    The larger screen makes a big difference. I okay mainly handheld and it’s perfect for playing games like stardew valley, and other open world games.

    It’s worth it just for the great catalog of Nintendo classics! Haven’t played Mario games in forever and it was great catching up on the Switch! OLED screen looks great and the white console looks fantastic.

    I have not previously owned a Switch prior to this model. Coming from being an OLED PS Vita and OLED iPhone user, i can say the screen quality is on par with previous experience. The build quality feels solid and the hinge is sturdy at any angle. This is a dream portable gaming device.

    Not only is the OLED screen a million times better than the LCD screen on the original Switch, but the build quality seems a little better. Tougher plastic? Stronger internal support? Not sure what it is but it just feels a bit more premium. Great upgrade!

    Great little gaming console for people that like to move around, but still want to use it on the TV when at home. The battery life was pretty good also.
