    Beautiful new OLED screen and great battery life. I love how simply the Nintendo Switch is to use and how many different ways there are to play the games. Definitely recommend!

    Personally I think it's worth the upgrade for everyone but a must have for anyone that benefits from the upgrades over the base model. My son loves the kick stand and screen.

    Nice but not essential upgrade

    Decent upgrade, but not "life changing." Worth the extra $50 for users that play mostly handheld AND can appreciate the improved screen. That said the resolution is still 720p so, while the screen is bigger, brighter, more clear, it is not higher resolution. Aside from the improved screen, the OLED model offers a more stable kickstand and double the internal memory. However, 64GB still isn't enough over time. You will still need an SD card to store games if you buy games from the eShop. If you only buy game cartridges 64GB should be plenty. The other central "guts" of the system are also the same as the previous models so if you mostly play docked then skip this version as you will experience no improvement whatsoever. The dock included with the OLED model features a LAN port to wire directly to a modem or router, if desired. That is the only material hardware difference between the two docks. If you are considering a Switch for a younger child save the $50 and get the regular version instead since they are unlikely to recognize the difference between an LED and OLED screen or the smaller bezel. For $50, they'd probably enjoy an extra game instead.

    This is the perfect console for handheld gamers. The bigger screen has no borders and looks stunning. The wide kickstand makes it easy to set up on a table anywhere. It also has double the storage space of the original model.

    The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start. Oh yeah I guess I should actually review this. Its fine no problems besides the price tag

    Love this product the 4k screen is awesome the size of the screen Nintendo Switch is fantastic for TV play and gaming on the go, even now in 2024. The Nintendo Switch works as both a home game console and a handheld, offering access to a remarkably strong library of excellent games on your TV at home or in your hands on the go.

    The OLED screen looks amazing with vibrant colors and deep blacks. The battery life is good, the larger screen is a big improvement, and the system works flawlessly both handheld and docked. One of the best Nintendo consoles I have owned. Highly recommended.

    Love how you can take this mobile. But for game nights you can put it to the Tv. The docking unit allows hardline network connection for strong connection. The OLED is amazing with crisp graphics mimic of Ps5. Great investment. Don't leave home without it. I did go on amazon and buy a unicorn bettle case so I can protect it in the event it drops. There is not really any bevels with it stock to prevent damaging the screen. Thats my only complaint. Great system otherwise.

    I bought this for myself as a Christmas gift and I love the graphics, size and the fact that I can play it handheld or on the tv. The set up is super easy and fast. Amazing handheld gaming device with the versatility to play on a large screen or monitor.

    The screen on the switch oled is the same 720p resolution as the previous model. However, the oled screen makes the darks even darker, and the brights even brighter. Colors pop and are vibrant. I have both the original nintendo switch and the oled and they both perform the same but the screen is definitely what sold me. I use it in handheld mode most of the time, and have my other switch docked to our tv. Very happy with my purchase.

    This is a cute system for a person who had the OG Nintendo and wanted to get back into it. I bought this for Mario Bros. I have hooked it to my television and it looks great. I have actually played it as a handheld more.

    This is my first switch, and I must say I'm very impressed the screen looks amazing. I've done my research, so I know most things haven't changed from previous models that said its still worth a buy if you are new coming in. I like that the dock has an ethernet port now makes for decent download speeds also the battery is pretty good I got a 5-hour session on breath of the wild. I haven't had any major issues with the system so far, I'm enjoying it a lot again if you are new coming in, I strongly recommend the oled model if you already have a switch I say hold out unless you have money to burn.
