    Vast Improvement for Handheld Players

    Posted .

    I have been a user of the original Nintendo Switch for years now and its easily been one of my favorite video game consoles I have owned! I was excited to get my hands on the new OLED switch, and so far I have not been let down! ORIGINAL VS OLED (HANDHELD MODE) - Simply put, the new OLED switch is better than the original in almost every area! Right out of the box you can see the big improvements and its well worth it. - The larger screen makes handheld gaming feel more immersive and having small bezels makes it feel more modern. - The OLED screen is truly a game changer. It’s insanely brighter, the colors pop which really makes games feel so vibrant, and just overall creates a much better experience in handheld mode. - The kickstand is SO much better! Its the entire length of the switch and can be set at different angles. Just overall makes it feel a lot more sturdy and is what the original switch should have came with. - The speakers are also much improved! They are frontward facing and produce a better more impactful sound. - The OLED switch comes with 64 GB standard which is also much better than the 32 GB on the original switch. - The improved dock on the OLED looks fantastic! Just some minor cosmetic improvements makes it look better, and I’d say overall the switch fits in their slightly more snug and secure than before. OLED IN DOCKED MODE: - The biggest complaint by everyone is going to be how the Switch OLED does nothing to improve the Switch’s performance in docked mode. There is no 4K or even HDR support which is very disappointing. - That being said, if you use the Switch in docked mode 100% of the time than you likely will not see any benefits from the new OLED switch besides the larger storage. FINAL VERDICT: - For me, I use the Switch in handheld mode a lot. So the OLED Switch is an absolute home run for me. The screen, speakers, kickstand, just about everything about the handheld experience has been improved and I have really enjoyed using it. - In my opinion, the OLED Switch is only $50 more than the original and completely justifies this price increase. Any new user who has never owned a Nintendo Switch should absolutely buy the OLED Switch! And if you already own the Switch but are curious about making the jump to OLED, you will not be disappointed whatsoever!

    The joycons crapped out. It has always clicked and popped since opening, and now theyre dead. And apparently this is a very. Very. known and present issue. Nintendo needs to offer replacement joycons for their lack of quality control.

    As a lifelong gamer, I've had my fair share of consoles, but nothing comes close to the Nintendo Switch OLED. This isn't just a gaming device; it's a masterpiece of engineering and design that has revolutionized how we play and experience games. The OLED screen is a game-changer (pun intended). The colors are vibrant, the blacks are deep, and the contrast is stunning. Playing games like Breath of the Wild or Mario Odyssey on this screen is like seeing them for the first time all over again. The larger 7-inch display makes handheld mode even more immersive without compromising on portability. But it's not just about the visuals. The improved kickstand is sturdy and adjustable, making tabletop mode a joy to use. The enhanced audio makes games sound better than ever, even without headphones. And let's not forget the increased internal storage - 64GB means more games at your fingertips. The versatility of the Switch OLED is unmatched. Whether you're playing docked on a big TV, handheld on the go, or in tabletop mode with friends, it delivers a top-notch experience. The seamless transition between modes still feels like magic, even years after the original Switch debut. Nintendo's game library is second to none, with a perfect blend of beloved franchises and innovative new IPs. From intense single-player adventures to chaotic multiplayer fun, there's something for everyone. Is it perfect? Nearly. The Joy-Con drift issue still persists, and we're all hoping for a more powerful "Pro" version someday. But these minor gripes don't detract from the overall excellence of this console. In conclusion, the Nintendo Switch OLED isn't just a great gaming console - it's a testament to Nintendo's commitment to innovation and fun. It has brought joy to millions and continues to redefine what a gaming device can be. If you're on the fence about getting one, take the plunge. You won't regret it.

    Now that I’ve got my hands on it, I regret not purchasing the oled model when it launched. I’m upgrading from the OG switch launch model, and the improvement in the screen and battery life is significant. On paper, the screen is only slightly larger, but in person, it’s significant. With the oled, the colors really pop, not nearly as washed out looking as the original switch, and it gets much brighter too. It’s just gorgeous. The current hardware is also much more energy efficient. The battery life vs the launch model is roughly doubled, and I had just put a new battery in mine 6 months ago. The kickstand is actually useful, where the OG felt like it would break off just opening it. If I have to have a complaint, it’s that the air intake vents have been moved to the bottom edge and little rubber feet have been added, I guess to prevent it from sliding on a surface. I often like to tuck my pinky fingers under the bottom when playing handheld, and these changes make it less comfortable to hold this way. It’s a minor thing that I’ll get used to, and is hardly even worth mentioning when you consider the other upgrades. The transfer process was a real headache, you have to have both consoles side by side to transfer, and then download a special app to transfer your animal crossing island. There are also some games where saves will not transfer under any circumstances. Then your sd card has to be erased and all games redownloaded, 300gb with in my case. This is not the fault of the switch console, but it is Nintendo and their archaic online system and DRM. If they had their act together the process would be as simple as signing in on the new switch, moving over the sd card with all games, and just syncing the cloud saves. Update: After more use, I found 2 other areas where this oled model falls short. I’ve found the game card slot cover is impossible to open without some sort of thin tool to stick in there and pop it open. There is no way to grip it or get a fingernail under it. If you’re mainly digital, like me, then it’s not a concern, but if you only buy physical versions of games this will likely irritate you. Also the wifi still sucks. The original switch was notorious for its poor wifi connectivity, and I can confirm it has not been improved in the oled model. If anything, it seems worse. The new one drops the signal and fails to connect in locations where the old one worked.

    An Amazing Upgrade - A Must-Have for Nintendo Fan

    Here's a well-crafted review you can use: --- I recently purchased the **Nintendo Switch OLED Model** from Best Buy, and I am beyond impressed with the experience so far. As an avid Nintendo fan, I was eager to try out the upgraded OLED display, and it did not disappoint. The screen is noticeably larger and brighter than the standard model, with vibrant colors that make games look more immersive and visually stunning. The new kickstand is a game-changer for tabletop mode—it's much sturdier and more adjustable, making it perfect for playing with friends on the go. The enhanced audio quality from the built-in speakers also adds to the experience, making gameplay feel more dynamic. The Joy-Con controller remain just as responsive and fun as ever, and the battery life on this model has held up well during extended play sessions. The extra storage space (64GB) is another great addition, allowing me to download and enjoy more games without needing an SD card right away. Overall, the Nintendo Switch OLED is a fantastic upgrade from the original and Lite versions, offering a superior gaming experience. If you're a fan of handheld gaming or looking to upgrade your current Switch, I highly recommend picking one up from Best Buy. The purchase was smooth, and their customer service was excellent. I couldn't be happier with my new console! --- Feel free to tweak any details, but this should give you a good start for a compelling review!

    Nintendo Switch OLED Model: A Fantastic Upgrade fo

    As an avid gamer, I was eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Nintendo Switch OLED Model, and let me tell you, it does not disappoint! Here’s why I’m giving it a solid 5 stars: 1. Stunning 7-Inch OLED Display The centerpiece of this upgrade is undoubtedly the 7-inch OLED display. The visuals are crisper, colors more vibrant, and the blacks are absolutely perfect. Whether I’m exploring Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild or racing through the Mushroom Kingdom in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the OLED screen elevates the gaming experience to a whole new level. 2. Enhanced Speakers Say goodbye to tinny audio! The enhanced speakers on the Switch OLED make a noticeable difference. The sound quality is richer, and I can enjoy gameplay without needing headphones. It’s a small detail, but it matters when you’re immersed in a game. 3. Generous Storage With 64GB of internal storage, the Switch OLED provides ample space for game downloads. Plus, there’s a handy Micro SD slot for expanding storage if needed. While it’s not PS5-level storage, it’s more than sufficient for the Switch’s library of games. 4. Sleek Design The Switch OLED retains the classic Nintendo design, but with a few subtle improvements. The white Joy-Con controllers add a touch of elegance, and the overall build feels sturdy. If it weren’t for the larger screen and the pristine white Joy-Cons, you’d be hard-pressed to notice any design differences between the Switch OLED and the original Switch. 5. Perfect for Handheld and Tabletop Modes While the Switch OLED doesn’t bring significant upgrades for TV mode, it truly shines in handheld and tabletop modes. If you’re someone who predominantly plays on the go, this is undoubtedly the model to buy. The redesigned kickstand ensures stability during tabletop play, and the OLED display makes every game pop. The Verdict The Nintendo Switch OLED is a welcome upgrade, even if it doesn’t revolutionize the hybrid console concept. For first-time Switch buyers or handheld enthusiasts, this is the one to get. Just keep in mind that TV mode remains largely unchanged, but that’s a minor trade-off for the portable gaming goodness you’ll experience. So, whether you’re a seasoned gamer or a newbie, the Switch OLED is a worthy addition to your gaming arsenal. Get ready to embark on epic adventures, solve puzzles, and race against friends—all on that gorgeous OLED screen!

    Incredible Upgrade from Original Switch

    I had buyers remorse almost instantly after buying this. Did I really need the OLED when I had an original switch? That all stopped the second I opened it. The larger and clearer screen was incredible. That along with the wide kickstand that adjusts allows me to ACTUALLY play it in tabletop mode, which is amazing. The one inch larger screen makes a HUGE difference. Screen looks amazing. Although not the main selling point, the white looks really nice. And lastly, the battery. Wow. It is at least twice as good as my original switch, if not more. When it comes to docking it to a TV, it is basically the same as my original switch. But on the go, this one blows it out of the water with the screen and battery. If you plan on playing the switch on the go a good bit, this OLED model is a no brainer. Just don’t forget to get a SD card since although it is upgraded from 32 GB to 64 GB, that is still really low if you have a good bit of games.
