Nintendo Switch OLED One Year Later...

After having the Nintendo Switch OLED for a year and changing, I've noticed a few things about it. Initially, I had strong opinions about some things, but time has changed that. Consider this a late-to-the-party review of the Nintendo Switch OLED.

The moment I turned it on I was blown away by its screen. Never understood the warm reception it got. It so much better than the original

I have it since launch. I love how much the oled is better build than the original. It’s more solid, it feels more quality. I just love it.

This device is so awesome. There are many portable options out there but the Nintendo Switch OLED, in my opinion, is the standard on how a portable console should be. I love the bluetooth (with Apple airpods pro) and is amazing with their noise cancelling feature.

Great review/re-review, natural, organic and very close to how it feels, one year later, this console.

BRO, how do you have less than 100k like your quality and presentation are as good as the best of them instant sub from me. Congrats on hitting the algorithm right with this vid, as it looks like you are getting some recognition for your effort.

When switch launched I was scared of it being underpowered and thought my money would be best saved for the first hardware refresh where framerates would be a little smoother. The OLED was a tad underwhelming when announced, but I was finally released of any buyers remorse. So i grabbed the preorder.

The OLED feels like what the launch switch should have always been, polished and refined. Gone are the crappy kick stand and ugly screen bezels, plus there is a beautiful screen. Build quality has been improved a lot in general, and I'm not worried about my plastic vents cracking over time.

Not to mention the switch in general fills a niche I have, of wanting to tote a home console to a friends house for couch co-op/party games. I keep the genki covert dock and switch in my backpack at all times. This means that if I grab a bag of controllers on my way out the door I have everything I need for the ultimate game night with the homies.... ON THEIR TV....

TLDR: Your content is awesome, I judged the switch to harshly at launch, OLED fixes problems I feel the og never should have had, switch is great buy one

As a handheld player the Switch OLED was such a big upgrade, it feels better, joycons have yet to experience drift and the screen. Oh my god the screen is so much better, not only do I like the bigger size but the colours are so beautiful. I'm so happy I made the update for relatively cheap. ($220 with TOTK.)

One thing I really like with the Switch is that if you purchase the physical game card, it does not use the the internal memory of the Switch. I have a PS5 and it is always an issue for me when I purchase the physical game disc but I still need to store 50-100 GB of data to the console as well.

Thinking of upgrading from my day 1 switch to the OLED, so helpful video! I got a new job where I’ll be traveling a lot more and I think the OLED screen will be a game changer on the go.

I just picked up the new Zelda OLED, and I think you hit the nail on the head. The difference in screen is really noticeable, not only in quality, vibrancy and blacks, but also in size. The kickstand is an enormous improvement as well. And as for the sound, the audio out of the OLED model speakers was considerably better than the ones out of my OG Switch imo.

I’ve been debating on getting one. I’ve got the original gray Switch and I don’t usually play it in handheld mode. Seeing as how the dock isn’t updated to perform any differently than the original, I don’t see much of a need in upgrading to the OLED. I also have a hunch that in the near future Nintendo will be announcing the next new and improved Switch console that will also upgrade the dock with the OLED screen. For those reasons I think I’m going to wait. I love the OLED screen, though. I have an LG C1 OLED and I will never be able to play on anything less than that. The image quality and performance enhances it offers is incredible.

Another very small change that is frequently forgotten is a small bump in storage. From 32 GB to 64 GB.

[SirTowerOfZaid]

The most important factor is no drift on the OLED!

[rpdomega]

Just wanted to say for how small you are this is amazing video quality and if you keep it up and make sure to promote more whether it be through tiktok or whatever you will def make it. Great video <3

I had a similar experience... my original Switch (bought it day 1 :D) is working fine...I didn't feel the need to buy the OLED version, even though the VITA had an OLED screen and it was a great experience. However, it all changed recently when I actually saw the OLED version in a friend's house. When I was at Gamescom, soo many people were playing on the OLED... Soo a few weeks later I bought one I splurged for one too. It's a nice upgrade :D, Nintendo made great choices to enhance the experience haha.

The OLED was my first switch and I love it so much I got my kids a V2 Switch so we can play the games we like. Love that it can be played handheld as well as docked.

[jackpeterman]

Unreal that you don’t have more subs - really really well made video. Looking forward to what else you’ll upload!

[mrlilhobbes]

Nice video! I just upgraded my switch to an OLED because my games kept crashing. I love the kickstand!

[falcon]

I upgraded from the v2 to the oled and our family used the oled way more compared to the older one. No regrets

0:07 Which—of course—were just rumours... And here we are in July, 2024... 🥸

I still have the v1 switch. I mostly play docked mode and only play handheld when the tv is being used or I'm outside. Battery was never an issue to me because I don't usually play for longer sessions. Mostly played 2-3 hours just enough how the battery lasts. I never had joycon drift yet maybe because I don't play aggressively. I think I don't need to upgrade for now. Maybe in 2 years i might but for now I'm satisfied with my v1 switch
