    I love my switch. I had the previous (original) model, but the Bluetooth and the larger screen make the switch so much better. I wasn’t sure about it being white, but I love it.

    I’ve only bought one game so far for this but I have played it every day since I bought it. The kickstand on this is so much better than the original switch. My only complaint is the issues with the controllers but I heard they were working on a fix for this.

    OLED is such a huge upgrade for anyone who plays handheld. If you don't play handheld much, it is basically inconsequential. For someone like me who updated their primary display, laptop, and phone to OLED after experiencing OLED, this was an obvious purchase.

    Great Switch System! I ordered this for my brother-in-law who is being deployed soon and he really likes it. The OLED version has some great improvements and doesn't cost much more than the standard version. I definitely recommend the OLED if you have the opportunity to buy one.

    As an owner of the original switch, and one who plays in handheld mode often, this model is superior. Whether you’re a gamer or casual, you will notice the small upgrades. If you don’t play in handheld mode often, it may not be worth the upgrade.

    Extremely Satisfied Buyer

    Originally bought this console to possibly sell it to one of my friends’ children for Christmas at its MSRP-plus-tax charge because of its shortage and scalpers’ prices. As we have gone to another social distancing mode because of the Omicron variant, I figured that nobody would want it anymore as we wouldn’t be in our usual annual gathering. So, I personally opened and tried it on my own after the new year, and was genuinely surprised of how good the system while trying to learn some of its nuances. While it is not my primary choice of “play,” there are some exclusive games which I hopefully will enjoy after ordering them online this weekend. Thank you, BB, for keeping your customers informed after the store re-stock, as well as complying with my special request to put it inside in one of the generic brown bags to keep it inconspicuous after leaving the store for work, and keeping it in the car for the rest of the day.

    Upgraded Screen, Better Stand, Still the Switch

    Massively improved Screen but otherwise the same Switch that has been around for years. If you are in the market for one it's the best option by a wide margin thanks to the Screen and Stand improvements. New Dock having Ethernet is also a nice bonus to the unit.

    Have been playing the switch since it came out. The OLED, while not much improved from a mechanical POV, is certainly a step up in terms of build and picture quality.

    This is definitely an upgrade from our other switch. The screen is so much better than the original switch. My son purchased it for himself from his own money. He likes having not to share with his brother.

    You can tell the difference between the OLED Nintendo Switch and the Standard Switch!! If you play mostly handheld on your Switch, then this is the upgrade for you! You can tell how much more the colors pop here and how much more vibrant the games look!! Very recommended!

    Bought this for my niece and nephew. They love it. I love it. It looks great when playing on the small screen and i think it looks great on the big screen as well. However they nor i have ever owned a switch. I love that they can both play using the small screen. Less fighting.

    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.

    This is a great upgrade if you like handheld/tabletop mode. The colors are vibrant and some games seem like they are completely new games when you play it with an OLED screen. I can’t say I can recommend it if you only use docked mode. The regular switch can do that too.
