Customer Ratings & Reviews

One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. If you were thinking about getting the older model, DON’T, because the OLED completely blows it out of the water. For the small price increase, you get way more bang for your buck by far. I really love how there is less of a black border when using it in hand held mode too. To add with the face that the graphics are WAY much smoother than the previous console, the OLED is 100% worth the buy!

Overall, a very good upgrade to my original switch. The battery life is so much longer, however max you can do portable without plugging in is about 4 hours depending on the game. The oled is beautiful, and finally a system that doesn't overheat after long playthroughs in docked mode. Sony and Microsoft may play big, but nintendo just gets how to make a system portable and playable on the road and at home.

Definitely happy that I went with OLED. The colors are well defined across the spectrum. I haven't had to delete any games when downloading a new one yet. Everything moves pretty seemless regardless of docked or handheld.

My son loves this one much more than the original he had. The graphics are much better and the larger screen is awesome. The battery life is much better as well

Honestly if you already have an original Switch, the OLED is still a great upgrade. A much better screen, more storage and a superior kickstand for just $50 more than a standard Switch? It's a no brainer decision. While it's certainly worth it if you primarily play in handheld mode, if you spend most of your time playing while docked, then it probably isn't worth the price of admission for you.

I have always wanted a Switch and finally decided to pull the trigger. The OLED screen looks absolutely beautiful and I love the versatility that comes with the console. The OLED model was a bit more but honestly, the bigger screen and amazing picture quality makes it 100% worth the few extra bucks. Setup was a breeze, I just had to make an account and I was in! You don’t even have to get the online services if you don’t play multiplayer games. It comes with the controller configuration which really helped my transition as a “typical” console player.

Originally putchased for myself, we Loved it so much bought one for my kids.

Good item and working great Thank you for your service

Watch out for ALL the bad reviews from people with hurt feelings. Next thing they’ll say is that’s not fair, well get over yourselves. Everybody knew that the system came out today and if you did not perpare then that is on you. Maybe you should have preordered when they first launched and not have waited to the day of. Nope, that made too much sense. Anywho back to the review. The newer larger screen, with the sound that is slightly louder, included with the new kickstand I couldn’t ask for anytime more for a extra $50 over the second gen. All together a must buy, thanks again Best Buy.

I was happy to upgrade from a great 1st gen switch to an even better amazing oled switch. Crisp graphics,way better battery,and significantly better kickstand.

We love our switch!! We love to play especially when our friends come over and we always have the BEST time! And when they bring their controllers, we can all play together! I love that it’s compact enough to also take it to travel on the road or to a friend’s house too!

I upgraded my old switch for the oled because i only play it in handheld mode for me personally it was worth it the it i feel like I'm noticing some lighting effects i missed on the old switch battery life seems to be better depending on what game I'm playing and i got my answer to a better screen overall this version of the console is worth it if you only play handheld

This is great to make time go by fast, I’m not usually a Nintendo person but the games are super fun and challenging enough, and they have a good variety of different “Arcady” games. The OLED screen is great, and much more convenient compared to the original switch when playing with another person. I definitely recommend purchasing an SD card to make space but overall the product is great and easy to carry around.

Had my eye on this for some time now. I really like that the battery had about 75% charge right out of the box so i was able to set it up as soon as i got home. Didnt have to plug in and wait. Very intuitive and easy to navigate the setup process. Lots more game selection online than i realized. Will eventually expand the memory with a card, but it has more than enough storage to get started. Controller feels good and i like the different options. Performance is smooth.

Really fun to play docked to the TV and looks great as well hand held

I might have only purchased this to play the new Pikmin game, but i love it all the same. The graphics are great on the screen. I was able to log 10 hours into my new game with no issues my first day. The battery was able to last quite a bit before i had to charge it. The sound is also great as i could hear over the sound of the road. I am now playing many different games and love to bring it with me to work.

The screen display is so much better than I could have ever imagined. I was on the fence between the OLED model and the original and I do not regret my choice of getting the OLED. The size and quality is worth every extra penny. My only qualm with it is that right out of the box, one of the joy cons felt a little wiggly.

Very happy I picked the OLED up on day 1. I have owned a Switch since the first year it was released so I was anxious for an upgrade. Sure I wish it was a pro model but the upgrades Nintendo did provide were more than enough for me to purchase it. It has better battery life than gen 1, more memory, the white is slick and looks great with my PS5. Last but certainly not least the screen is bigger and so much more vivid than gen 1. Very happy with my purchase and just the Switch in general. It has become my go to gaming unit in my busy like of work and raising a family.

Pretty solid product honestly and does well against competitors.

I’ve had this switch for a good while now and I gifted it to my five year-old kid is sure can take some drops with no issues. Screen has not cracked. I am so grateful for that. And if they come out with another Nintendo switch you dang right I’m gonna buy it.
