    Upgraded from my nintendo switch lite. Obviously much better graphics but my biggest concern was the battery life and the OLED has out-performed my expectations. Plus the white looks really sleek.

    We ordered the red/blue model and picked it up directly from the store - easy-peasy. I don't know much about the original switch, but this OLED model has a big, bright screen and can be used easily with or without the dock. Easy to setup.

    The screen of this Switch OLED game console is very beautiful, and the screen is quite detailed. It is a joy to play, and it can make you very happy to play with your close friends. Our family is very satisfied!

    Not too different than original switch. But I traded in my original toward this. With that in mind, the OLED is beautiful. Bright and colors pop. Battery life is another improvement. Do note that some tight fitting accessories will not fit this version as it is a little bit longer.

    Got my switch during the hype of the switch 2. I’m new to the switch world but really enjoy this one for being my first one.

    This is a great console. The OLED screen is bright, the speakers are great for their size, strongly recommend over the non OLED version. Lack of streaming options prevents the switch from being my priority console, but Nintendo still knocked it out of the park with this one.

    Like the title says, I've been practically glued to this thing since I got home with it. The display looks fantastic and doesn't feel too bulky with the Joy-Cons attached. For the extra $50 I would recommend upgrading to this model.

    I had my original switch since it’s initial release, and saw no real reason to upgrade. That was before I went into Best Buy and saw just how nice the oled screen was. The smaller bezels and brighter screen really help games that looked meh on the original display look sooo much better! The audio and battery also seen some minor improvements. If you’re happy with the original still no reason to upgrade, but for those who play exclusively in handheld it’s worth checking out.

    Decided to upgrade to the OLED Model from the original and I'm thrilled I did. It runs well and the screen is incredible. If you play mostly in handheld, it's definitely the Switch option to choose. The colors are vibrant and the games look great.

    Great console for everyone! The games are friendly and the optional portability makes this console unique from the competitors. It’s a small upgrade from the previous generation Nintendo Switch, but the OLED display does Mae a difference if you game a lot in portable mode.

    Nintendo Switch Exceeds Expectations

    I was hesitant to buy this after the last Wii-U fail since I already purchased a PS5. I am so pleased that I decided to give Nintendo a chance as the Nintendo Switch is one of the most fun consoles I have ever owned. It is much more than a typical console, it is a family gathering event. Seeing the joy in my daughters faces as we compete in Mario Kart and Super Smash Brothers makes the Nintendo Switch more than worth every penny. If you are on the fence about this, my advice is to purchase the console and perhaps an additional controller. The added feature of disconnecting it from the TV and taking it with you whether you are going to the park, beach or even travelling is one of its best features.

    Great upgrade from a Switch Lite

    Upgrading from a Nintendo Switch Lite as a birthday gift to our 8YO. He loves it! Taking it while traveling and enjoying the larger and brighter screen, and also being able to play multiplayer games on the go or on the big screen tv. Down side is the storage capacity hasn’t been upgraded and with mostly cartridge games collection and only 1 downloaded game (Rocket League) and the 32gb storage is already full. It would have been better to upgrade at least to 64gb internal storage, instead of having to rely on SD cards to increase capacity for downloads.

    I bought OLED for my brother as a Christmas gift. He has the OG one and was in need of an upgrade. The screen is much more brighter and colorful compared to the first switch and a better battery life! I recommend this product if your upgrading from the first switch that came out.

    This is my fourth switch the first two broke in the third is my son so I got this one for myself and it's definitely a nice handheld. Better screen better speakers and a nice kickstand which I haven't used yet but I plan on mainly using it as a handheld with the side controllers.
