    For those loving to get a switch it is the only one I would buy if available instead if I already had one I would wait for the next model. Otherwise double the storage better build quality and that Samsung AMOLED is perfect upgrade from the first edition. Not to mention the kickstand is actually useful.

    Such a huge upgrade from the standard LCD screen of the Nintendo Switch of prior. If you play primarily handheld (like I do) then you definitely might want to consider this upgrade. The bigger screen and the vibrancy of the OLED is a much needed feature that truly makes your games pop.

    Over i have had the Nintendo Switch OLED for a few weeks now, and I am completely satisfied with my purchase! Just word of advice, buy a screen protector and carrying case if you plan on using it as a on the go device and not a at home gaming console.

    Best gaming system ever

    I really love this video game system. This is the best system I have ever played in terms of gaming. I love the fact that I can switch it up into many different ways of playing it. The graphics and battery life are really excellent. I can play various games for a while before I have to charge it. Granted playing some games will drain the battery quicker than others but on average you can game for a while before it needs to be recharged. The only thing I wish nintendo would do for future systems is make it a bit easier to get the games in and out of the system. I find it from time to time a little tricky trying to open the cartridge case just to get my games in or out. I personally don't use sleep mode when powering off my switch, because its still going to drain the battery, so I just turn it completelly off, which also needs to be changed on how to power off the system. But other than that, I've been very please with my system since I've purchased it.

    Nearly every thing they changed form the original to the OLED version is something I wanted. Better, louder speakers. Better, wider, firmer kickstand. Slightly larger screen, which is brighter and crisper looking. Built in Ethernet port, at the sacrifice of a USB (worth it).

    Good upgrade for me, especially when I play handheld majority of the time! I love how big the screen is! And the oled screen definitely brings out more contrast to the games I play especially BOTW! Lastly, the external build feels more durable, higher quality & a good upgrade of the kick stand!

    This is a Nintendo Switch. It's a really good video game console. In some aspects it's a great video game console. In others, it's just a good video game console. In even more other way it's a bad video game console. Are you curious to what ways it's great, good, bad at being a video game console? You should buy one and find out! This console reminds me of a story my grandfather once told me about a little boy who grew up wanting to be a doctor. When he was small the boy's grandfather died from an illness. The boy asked his father "Why couldn't they save Pop-pop?" His father replied "Because there hasn't been a doctor great enough to cure the illness Pop-pop was stricken with." From that day, the boy only had one life goal and that was to be the greatest doctor ever so HE could cure the illness and nobody would ever have to die from it again. That boy was me. And I make so much money as the greatest doctor of all time, I was able to afford the new Nintendo Switch - OLED Model w/ White Joy-Con - White.
