Worth having IT！

I bought it when it was on sale. You should also wait until the holidays to buy games.

Great Product

The ONLY reason this is 4 stars is because I received the wrong color. Obviously this isn’t the Mario Red Limited Edition that I’m reviewing. However the seller gave me a partial refund for the incorrect item received. This product also came way quicker than expect. This one is Japanese, and I’m in the US but it works completely fine so if you receive a non US one don’t sweat it. The plug is the same. Overall this OLED is beautiful. It’s a bit lighter then the original switch too. I bought it for a friend and they seem to love it even though it’s not the Mario one. Thank you to Emma’s Market (the seller) for quick shipping and EXCELLENT customer service.

UPDATE: new one did not freeze like the previous one

So as soon as I turn it on and start setting it up, it freezes after I enter my Wi-Fi password and try to connect to it. I think nothing of it because maybe it was my internet. But then it just kept freezing every 20 minutes or so and i would have to force shut it off every time. I didn’t even get to play a single game on it because it would freeze while I was downloading one. So I’m returning it and waiting for a replacement. I will update this review once I have my replacement and hopefully it’s not defective like the one I got.UPDATE: I got the replacement a week after my last review and it didn’t freeze at all during setup or during gameplay. I’m glad I get to keep this one and enjoy it to the fullest. Appreciate the return and replacement process being simple. Thank you!

What’s not to love

I had the original switch which is still in great working condition. I gave it away to my niece knowing I was going to buy the OLED switch but I only wanted it in red. Like my original, I play with this one everyday. If you’re still on the fence, jump off & get this. If you’re holding out for the switch 2 then you may have a long wait.

Brand New OLED switch!!! Sharing experience, please read to decide if young kids love it or not!

This is my first gaming console after a long time, before I played on old PS and Nintendo 2DS, but this OLED switch is day and night difference. I gifted this to my 9 years old daughter and a 5 years old son. They’re having party at home now!! Choosing a gaming console appropriate to audiences I got (my kids of course), was no brainer 1/Since this console can be played handheld so travel friendly with kids 2/Can be easily switched to TV for big screen experience 3/Multiplayer games are fun because you have two joycons 4/Light weight on the hands 5/Joycons are most suitable for your kids, however, both Joycons can be clubbed to use as full controller on Joycon Grip 6/Docking is breeze 7/Longer play time on switch screen 8/Kids can use switch as Table Top mode (use the inbuilt screen and put it on table and play when on travel, fun to have both kids sit side by side in a car 9/The Dock is light weight and HDMI, LAN and power adapter can be connected 10/You can charge with USB-C while on travel.. Now few things can be improved 1/Joycons can be confusing sometimes, the buttons on both Joycons play imp role so kids are confused which to press when on mutilplayer mode, so it can be simplify 2/Docking is so light weight that it is being dragged sometimes if you connect with TV on HDMi cable, so need extra few grams weight to stay put properly 3/Games are insanely pricy, I mean almost all Mario games are about 60 bucks a game!!! So buy the switch, and then buy those costly games!! No discount I saw so far on Mario games 4/I need to check the switch specs, but I am sure there is no 4K support even I connected to my Sony Bravia x90K 85″ 4K/120 Hz HDMi 2.1 input, used HDMi 4 input which is 4K/120 Hz compatible. 5/Sound on switch is alright, well, good that your kids won’t annoy you while they play on switch and not on TV 6/Internal memory is adequate, only 64GB, initially okay but can’t put more games if you gonna install more than 15 (3 gb per game), should be alright if kids want to experiment free games and just recycle them.Nothing major negative though, all good so far! Hopefully you will enjoy your brand new console! So far I love it since my 5 years Son can easily handle without much adult supervision!!! Go for it and yes, it brand new item!!!

So much fun

The controllers are perfect for little hands and we bought joycon grips to make it easier on the adults to play with the kids. Screen is bright and clear. Only down size is sometimes in the charger we have to press down to make a connection

Sorry I waited this long

Now that I’ve got my hands on it, I regret not purchasing the oled model when it launched. I’m upgrading from the OG switch launch model, and the improvement in the screen and battery life is significant. On paper, the screen is only slightly larger, but in person, it’s significant. With the oled, the colors really pop, not nearly as washed out looking as the original switch, and it gets much brighter too. It’s just gorgeous. The current hardware is also much more energy efficient. The battery life vs the launch model is roughly doubled, and I had just put a new battery in mine 6 months ago. The kickstand is actually useful, where the OG felt like it would break off just opening it. If I have to have a complaint, it’s that the air intake vents have been moved to the bottom edge and little rubber feet have been added, I guess to prevent it from sliding on a surface. I often like to tuck my pinky fingers under the bottom when playing handheld, and these changes make it less comfortable to hold this way. It’s a minor thing that I’ll get used to, and is hardly even worth mentioning when you consider the other upgrades. The transfer process was a real headache, you have to have both consoles side by side to transfer, and then download a special app to transfer your animal crossing island. There are also some games where saves will not transfer under any circumstances. Then your sd card has to be erased and all games redownloaded, 300gb with in my case. This is not the fault of the switch console, but it is Nintendo and their archaic online system and DRM. If they had their act together the process would be as simple as signing in on the new switch, moving over the sd card with all games, and just syncing the cloud saves.Update: After more use, I found 2 other areas where this oled model falls short. I’ve found the game card slot cover is impossible to open without some sort of thin tool to stick in there and pop it open. There is no way to grip it or get a fingernail under it. If you’re mainly digital, like me, then it’s not a concern, but if you only buy physical versions of games this will likely irritate you. Also the wifi still sucks. The original switch was notorious for its poor wifi connectivity, and I can confirm it has not been improved in the oled model. If anything, it seems worse. The new one drops the signal and fails to connect in locations where the old one worked.

The Switch

A gift for my daughter and she loves it.

Works great! Enjoying it so far 💓

Okay so I’ll start off with why it was 4 stars for me. My product arrived safely, was left in a shady spot, and seemed fine! Upon opening the box, the actually switch oled box seemed kind of worn? Or as if it was was a used up box or something. The edges on the box, including the opening, seemed worn, the tape for the opening was already opened, and overall just seemed like it was possibly someone else’s package before me. I did notice on the side, a label indicating it was possibly a return, so I’m assuming it was returned at some point. Whoever used this switch and returned it, left it a little dirty to say the least. Screen still had protection on it, everything that was included in package was there and original. The side bars were a bit greasy looking? I guess you could say. I mean for a product that is white, it seemed almost off white. Along with that, the left side bar seemed to have two tiny little blue scruff marks. Overall, the whole console itself works great, seems in good condition, and I’ve had no issues thus far. I did not include pictures since I’m writing this from work, but I can probably include pictures later.Other than these things, the switch works great!! There is definitely a significant amount of storage and longer battery life it seems, and the screen is much bigger than the OG which is honestly really nice. I haven’t tried the Bluetooth option yet, but the sound quality alone is pretty great, even just at midway volume. The graphics are lovely, and on tv, it’s exactly as expected. I did add the online play membership, which seems to work great and is accessible on the switch and app. I can modify the switch to my desire, I can download games, I can watch YouTube on it as well. I mean, it’s pretty great so far. To be fair, this is also my first switch, but I have used and borrowed switches in the past and to me, I really enjoy this one so far. It’s pretty fast with download speeds, but I’m sure that also has to do with WiFi and other factors that I’m not entirely educated on 🤷🏻 overall, very happy I bought it. Confused on why it looked the way it did, but I assume it was returned to manufacture and then sent to me. Its not something that bothers me terribly, but I will definitely be keeping an eye on any issues that seem to arise moving forward.

Envoltura con detalles

Consola nueva, pero creo por el precio más económico es por los detalles de la caja de la Switch.

Free time means play time.

Going back in time with this gaming system. Blast from the past with all the original games that were played when I was a kid. Everything works good, no defects. Online capabilities to play with buddies.

This was a perfect match for me.

Having physical issues, this game lets me play games and enjoy myself. I like the OLED screen, it’s much better. The price difference is worth it to me.I LOVE this game as it lets me play some old school Nintendo games and others, in a platform that is similar to that day.I love it so much, next time they come out with a new model, I will be very likely to get one.I think the only failure of this game is that they do not have a charging base, or game stand. The game stand is a HUGE one for me.

Good buy

A must-have. The vibrant bright colors on this switch, are noticeably different from the base model and it performs a little bit faster.

Worth it if you’re a handheld player

This moderate upgrade of the Nintendo Switch is definitely worth spending an extra $50 to get if you are already in the market for a new Switch. The most important question though, is if it’s worth it for the people who already own a Switch. This depends a lot on personal preference as well as how old your current switch is (and if you own the original HAC001 from 2017-2019 or the V2 that released in late summer of 2019). I mostly play in handheld mode because that is what this console excels at, for playing on a TV/Monitor, there are plenty of better options.So what do you get with this OLED model? You get a larger screen that is OLED instead of IPS LCD. This is the type of screen that most iPhones have used since 2017 (and all of them use it now except for the SE2). You get a better contrast ratio, meaning deeper blacks and brighter colors/whites. There is no HDR support like Dolby Vision or HDR10, but it still looks leagues better than all the other Switch models. The smaller borders around the screen make the device look more modern and it’s the size they should have gone with from the beginning (even if the logistics of using OLED wasn’t feasible in 2017). There is also improved speakers, they do sound better and make the games your playing sound larger and more immersive. It’s not as big of a difference as the new screen is to the old screen, but it’s still a good thing to include.Another new features is a better kickstand that is more like that of a Surface Pro tablet, allowing the Switch to be able to lean all the way back and be much more sturdy while doing so. This isn’t really important unless you play in tabletop mode, but this is more realistic of a way to use this console with the screen being just that much bigger, I could see myself using a Pro controller and sitting the switch down for certain types of games.The last difference here is the dock, which has a built in Ethernet port, which you should really use if you have the option to go wired. Unlike in the previous model “regular Switch”, a wired connection is basically twice as fast as using standard WiFI, before it was only about 1.5x as fast. It still is unfortunate that you cannot achieve 100Mbps download speeds, but 60-65 is better than the 40-45 I was getting on my older model.If I had to oversimplify who should buy the OLED model, I would say that these two types of people should buy the OLED (even if they already have a Switch Lite or V2) It would be: techie people who are nerdy about their tech and want the best they can get (even when they don’t need it), and serious gamers who sink hundreds and hundreds of hours into playing the Switch in handheld mode.Also, I don’t know that we need to specify this anymore because the switch OLED has largely been in stock since early January. But I did not and would not pay one penny more than $350 (plus tax) for this console. I think it’s worth that price if you love Nintendo characters/games, but I don’t think the hardware is worth more than $400 and the tax gets it pretty close to that.

One of the Best Products Ever Made – Period!

First, to be clear, I play exclusively in handheld mode. (No proper technophile allows a video game system to be connected to their 4k tv if it does not output 4k. LOL!) I am also a console (Xbox) gamer and have been playing video games since the mid 1980s.With that being said, this device is shockingly awesome. Why? You can basically play games with the graphically fidelity of almost (but not quite) the Xbox One/PS 4 in your hands. This blows me away. The fact that I can play NBA 2k, FIFA, Need for Speed, Grid, Mortal Kombat, Puzzle Quest and so many other games on the go is truly a joy to behold. As a result, much to my surprise, this has been the console I have ended up playing the most. It’s easy to see why – I can take it with me wherever I go. I travel for work and personal reasons. This is with me and I can continue playing my games on it. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy my Xbox experience and still play PC games as well. They are awesome. However, I notice I play this more because it can be on an airplane with me, in the bed, during lunch at work, when I travel, etc. Then, sometimes when I get home, I may want to continue my gaming. So it is racking up more hours than my Xbox and PC (which I certainly still enjoy).Then, the OLED screen is gorgeous. I had an original Switch. I absolutely love this screen, the brightness, sharpness and clarity. Some games look totally different. If you already have an original Switch, if you can, sell it (or give it away) and get this one. I absolutely love it. I even bought a 512GB micro SD card. I am in a form of gaming Nirvana. You will really enjoy this model.Finally, I do think that Nintendo is in a truly awesome position with the Switch. I am not sure if Nintendo even realizes how close they are to dominating the video game market for decades. Why? Think about it. As of January 2022 the Switch is the leading console with over 100 million units sold. It really, at this point, needs one thing to finish off the competition for decades. What is it they need? Just a little more power. If Nintendo creates a device that has the graphical and processing power of an Xbox One/PS4, can do 1080p in handheld mode, with a 7 inch OLED screen, (and 4k when docked) Nintendo will rule gaming for at least a decade. Why? 1080p on OLED, at the handheld distance from the eye, appears almost as detailed as 4k at a tv watching distance. With the processing power of the Xbox One/PS4, developers can bring tons of more of their best games (triple A titles) to the Switch. So, a Switch that powerful, with a large number of triple A games on it and with a screen that good in handheld mode, the Switch’s market share would crush the competition.At any rate, I digress. If you are considering this device. Get it! Period. The build is so awesome on this variant. You will love it.I have to go now. I have to play my OLED Switch – LOL!Also, the delivery from this seller was also good. It came ahead of time.
