Nintendo Switch OLED

I've played my OLED just about every day for almost 5 years. I see no reason to upgrade until more switch 2 exclusives are available...better screen, no joystick drift. It's unbelievable.

[...] Got the OLED last year as I had an original switch. You forgot to mention the battery in the current switch and OLED switch does run longer than the original switch. [...]

got mine (oled) for my kid last dec. [...] also my uncle also got my cousin the oled yesterday. [...]

[...] Handheld and so many retro Nintendo games to play anywhere, anytime away from the restrictions of a TV screen. [...] They retain their value. [...] People still buy and value 30+ year old Nintendo games because they’re are great value and legendary! [...]

Ive been using my oled for 6 months now and i dont really check nintendo eshop because theres alot of good games that are right up my ally from 3rd partyports to first party games. Some indie games too, i remember trying not to buy windbound but nah i really like the premise of the game so i bought and now no mans sky is calling upon me. I can play all day with this, play couch coop with people who have no idea what video game is, and finally ill be able to play all zelda games that has and will be releasing on switch this is heaven.

I've had the Switch for a few years now (non-OLED). [...] It's a great price and offers a ton of portability. [...]

[...] I had mine for about a year and a couple months now and I have no regrets. It’s just that the games are highly overpriced on average at $60. [...]

I'm someone who's fairly sensitive to PWM. [...] Steam's OLED doesn't bother me. I think it's the same screen as the Switch OLED which also doesn't bother me. [...]

All 3DS/2DS models can be hacked with software only and it's very easy Also all Switch models can be hacked too. It's only the matter of softmodding (early V1 models) or modchip installation (later V1 models, V2, Lite, OLED) I have both a hacked New 3DS XL and a hacked Switch OLED and both are incredibly good. But I admit I use the latter only because of piracy...

[...] Being so dismissive of the Switch shows the disconnect between what most gamers care about, and what some tech enthusiasts think gamers care about. [...] I say this as someone who owns a PS5, a Switch OLED, an ROG Ally, and a fairly decent gaming PC. I briefly had an original Steam Deck, but the screen was atrocious. [...] Yes, having access to Steam games is cool… but hauling around a massive device with short battery life is not cool to most gamers, and neither is spending forever tweaking settings just to get something that’s marginally better than the Switch 1 can do out of the box. [...]

[...] I have a Switch 2 as well as an Oled and Lite there. [...] For everything else, the Oled because of the better display and battery time. [...]

I have an OLED on the way. [...] I watched a lot of comparisons too and I was just simply blown away by how much better the OLED looked even when the S2 was running higher res + higher frame rates. When the OLED S2 comes out I will reevaluate but for now I'm excited game on the OLED model. I also got Mobapad joycon replacements... I think the best looking setup in handheld gaming is the OLED with Mobapad joycons in white. [...]

here's something no one is talking about why the switch OLED is better than the switch 2. [...] now with Nintendo switch 1 games to my knowledge all the games are for the most part on the game cartridges (except for the games that explicitly state it's only a download code or requires a internet connection to use the game.) in this case this means that not only do you own the game physically but it also means that if Nintendo ever stops support for the switch 1 and OLED models all physical games will still be playable offline excluding those select games that require the internet and stuff to function. so in short a switch OLED is not only better for the games but also the console is waaay cheaper than a switch 2 especially with the switch 2 prices increasing too

[...] Switch Oled verry nice Product. [...] Personally me that has a oled 360hz panel for my PC find Oled to be way to overated. I have a Phantom gaming 2560x1440 360hz oled and i like my laptop 2560x1600 240hz IPS just as much. [...]

[...] Better screen(120hz 1080p vs 60hz 720p) 6. [...]

Picked up a oled with breath of the wild and a Lego Star Wars game for $180 with the dock and everything it was $200 originally pretty good deal I have a og switch but now ima gonna wait even longer to get a switch 2 now i upgraded to the oled plus I can keep playing all my games 💪🏽

Im a sucker just got another oled after so long for 200 plus after holding the switch 2 it looks blurry and fuzzy!!!! [...] I can get all these other new games on my steam account and play from my phone, we'll im back in the switch family again have a 2ds also....will NOT be getting luigis mansion 2 hd for switch....have it for 2ds it looks better and is more charming to look at!!!!!! Looks like I'll be going back on eshop...the oled for that price!!!! I miss its more vibrant crisp display and colors more then the switch 2 looks.. sorry switch 2....its just not worth the hype or display!!!!! [...] I still love the oled

Hello, as a display scientist back in the late 90s who had to tell the Japanese and Korean that their flat LCD factories and panels were not the best tech... [...] Oled was always the only tech that rivals the old vacuum crt TVs, if you remember them kids. PS bought an oled, switch 2 too big for my commute and battery life and... Not oled. I'll wait for the obvious switch 3 knowing Nintendo which will have oled. Very happy with my oled switch wick I just got this week. [...]

[...] I just upgraded my OG switch to an OLED and it's like having a whole new console, for a fraction of the price. [...] I ended up picking up only the tablet from amazon (refurbished) for around $80 after using up my gift cards, which was priced at $200. It came in outstanding condition, and since 90% of the accessories are interchangeable between the two, I feel like I got my money's worth. [...] I don't know if the OLED and OG have something different between the two as far as Wi-Fi connectivity goes, but it definitely was downloading faster than before.

[...] Loved the form factor but not the screen and the text size for a lot of game. "Switched" to Oled. [...]

Just got an oled and got rid of my 2017, the difference in screen quality is insane and where I never wanted to play my old switch I’m now itching to try as many games as I can in handheld

Got the Switch Oled docked with my TV, playing Dragon Quest 3 HD Remake and the newer Zelda's Breath of Wild and Tears of Kingdom on turbo controllers, absolutely loving it, fun, fun and more fun, not interested in paystation's bs5 pro and outrageous game prices, Nintendo nail the fun aspect with excellent gameplay and docked the switch oled looks beautiful with its elegant design, real beauty 👌

The issues I had with the Lite was no rumble, the screen was noticeable worth, but the deal breaker was the sticks were always bad, and only got worse. It is a pain to replace the sticks on the Lite. Also the battery life is actually worse than the OLED.

Bought mine couple of months ago in eBay (after owning a v1 for years), WiFi was damaged and due to that paid 130 bucks. For me it’s perfect since the dock has Ethernet, and I never play online with Switch!

I also have a Nintendo Switch OLED, and i have great experience using the switch primarily as a hand - held console and the dock version to! It is very fun to play with your friends especially, and the OLED screen is goood. If you want to buy a mid range console, BUY the Nintendo Switch OLED!

iv had my switch oled now for a while the best thing about it is the nice big oled screen the blacks and the colours just look so good and the tv docking mode is handy to have one game that amazed my mind how good it ran wich is a must buy for the oled is rdr1 being able to play red dead on the go is pretty cool

Just bought a switch OLED a couple weeks ago. [...] I was playing a Wii U for the last 8 years and this is such a massive improvement. [...] Stoked for the months, and most likely years ahead with my Switch OLED. [...]

Love thw Switch and have the pleasure of owing the OLED and the Lite. I think a great alrernative right now is to purchase the Steam Deck OLED. Ironically the Steam Deck OLED has the exact same display manufacturer as the switch and you can also now emulate pretty much all switch games on it. But even as a stand alone, the switch oled is very fun to use especially connectvingt it to the TV and playing local multiplayer games.

Love my Switch OLED it got me back into gaming after nearly fifteen years away from it. [...]

I just bought OLED last month. [...]

I got an OLED Switch at launch. The screen is amazing and in addition to having amazing-looking games it's actually really great to watch shows on it on Hulu or other streamining services supported by Nintendo. [...] I use the Switch OLED primarily as my living room console.

I own a Switch Oled, Steam Deck, and PS4. [...] Switch Oled is great, too, especially if you really enjoy playing handheld, even if it is a bit underpowered. [...]

[...] I did break one of the cases because they are so cheap bought u replaced that too and now they all look super cool. [...]

I myself own a normal and an OLED Switch and I can say that the OLED is really worth it. That screen just makes every games so much better. If you play mainly handheld I think that the console is worth it. I mean, $50 more for extra features is a decent price imo. [...]

If you ever use table top mode the 50 extra dollars is plenty worth it. I mean I take my switch with me places including friends houses and I don’t want to have to pack the dock and all the cords just to go hang out for a few hours and pack up this makes life so much easier with the new kickstand

Ironically, I own more than one Switch and all the games I play using an emulator. After the Steam Deck came out, I just preferred using the emulator on the Steam Deck because it allowed me to backup and share save files, so I had the convenience of a handheld with the ability to play on my gaming PC at home and in both cases have performance unrestricted. When the Switch OLED came out I was hoping it would be a performance boost also, but unfortunately that wasn't the case so I didn't buy one. [...] I think the Switch is arguably one of the best consoles ever made, especially for it's ergonomics and UX. The detachable joycons, the subtle integration of motion control, and it's light weight with good battery life made it an exceptionally good gaming product. [...] Software is software and hardware is hardware, it makes no sense to restrict emulation in any way as long as you legally own the games.

Yes i LOVE the Oled panel on the switch 1. Superior display ( So long as the pixels are self illuminating or are Micro LED's) compared to any other display technology at the moment. How ever i did start off with the LCD display switch when it first came out and i greatly enjoyed it at the time. In this case the hardware performance, reverse compatibility, enhanced features and size of the switch 2 are more than enough reason to move on from the Oled. In my case i have a 43" LG C2 OLED TV with GSYNC technology anyway so im not missing out on an superior display.

Have had my OLED for about two years now. I love it. Nothing beats the color of the OLED display and all the great games.

I got the switch oled last year and i am so happy with it ❤ even then i got the "should have waited for the new switch" remarks, but I dont regret it one bit ✨

My partner bought me a OLED switch back in February for my birthday and I love it, I'm addicted to star drew valley and waiting for the 1.6 update in November

Still using my 1st edition released switch (2017) and no problem thus far. Gonna keep using it till the switch 2 releases.

if you mainly play Switch 1 games, it's not worth the upgrade. I've got both and Switch 1 games are not dramatically better. The screen is certainly not as good as the Switch OLED, so if you have that and aren't interested in Switch 2 games you've made a good choice!

I've been playing TOTK over the last month and have had zero issues running it on my switch (OLED edition).

I have so much shit that I legit thought I just lost a Nintendo Switch OLED. Took me 30 minutes to find, and it was sitting behind my iPad on my desk. Embarrassing.

Got the Switch OLED during my previous trip to Japan before the announcement of the Switch 2. No regrets now!

Womps And womp and Womps The Channel's mad , because nintendo suddenly went back to lcd Well, it doesn't affect me, big complaints over it.Get over it I love my original switch I had with lcd and switch 2 Totally worth it

I was about to buy a switch 2 but I got an offer of switch OLED with complete accessories for $100 seems like the owner was experiencing overheating issue in his end. I just bought it and changed the thermal paste and the overheating issue is gone.

Bought an OLED switch a month ago and it holds up so well I love it and have no complaints and think for the price it’s worth getting over the 2

I had a switch, the v1 ... sold it. Now got a switch oled totk edition, modding it soon ;)

After years, i finally just gotnthe OLED. [...]
