Not 30 seconds in, and Anthony said he has been switchless for months because a friend lost theirs and he gave them his. Could Anthony get any more wholesome? What a friend
Yeah... He's a great friend.
And then 8 minutes in says he would not give the new one away :p
He’s freakin phenomenal
@sijonda will u give Ur switch away so shut up.
@@arsalanahmad12 I don't have one, so how about giving me yours.
Joking aside. Take a breath.
The new switch is actually slightly longer than the old one. Some accessories may not fit.
Oof, guess I would need a new travel case if I were to buy one!
@@hunterst.arnold6646 Cases, doubtful. It’s 3mm, if I remember correctly, so mainly grips like the Skull N Co had to be redesigned.
I thought they just decreased the bezel?
@@Coolman13355 nope. If you have them side by side you can see the difference - and measure it.
@@Your_Opponent1216 all the buttons and jack and game port are in different places. Travel case may still fit but any grip like cases may fit Ofer the device but will hit buttons and cover the game port so they won't really work. My old grip case does not fit the volume buttons and game port
I love how even without any sort of planned script, Linus can come in and still talk about a device with the same knowledge and passion as he does with almost everything else.
It's true but it takes a lot of experience. His first videos were cringy and hard to watch. The natural order of things
How do you know it wasn't planned?
@@Vagabor123 because he does this kind of thing all the time in other places like WAN show, plus he wasn't saying anything that would lead you to suspect it was planned. It felt like a genuine natural impression.
@@Vagabor123he’s there boss he’s walking around all the time just checking in things
Other thing you didn't mention, the OLED has 64 GB of internal storage compared to the 32 GB the others have.
Ikr quite the boost. Double the existing internal storage :D. Very useful for those that buy digitally especially and need a bit more storage.
@@toonzelda3353 a microsd literally costs nothing
I still think its not enough considering some games take up 15+ GB each... my VR headset came with double the internal storage and it was cheaper than this console
At least microSD cards are relatively cheap
@@toonzelda3353 That doesnt make sense, the increase in price from the V2 to the OLED is something like 3-4 times the price of a 128gb SD card.
where do you live that an SD card costs that much?
Most of switch owners are non techie. They only concern on what they can see, rather then what's more important Internally
You know Anthony is a good friend when he gives his Switch away to a friend in need!!
"Oh, I lost my switch"
"Here you can have mine"
Anthony is so nice!
Exactly my thoughts!
At least he knows he can get a new one at any time, unlike the rest of us.
My exact thought
@@hokke5434 we are not here for that
I've heard a lot of people say this model is how the Switch should have been at launch and I'm inclined to agree.
OLED screens were very expensive in 2016-2017.
Partial agree. The Switch at launch should have had such (smaller) bessels, should have had this kickstand, etc. But it shouldn't have been OLED for obvious reasons.
@@joeyvigil then how did Sony manage to sell Vita for 200$ before Switch was even released?
@@eyeofterra The vita screen is one forth the size of the switch
If they came out with these improvements right off the start, then subsequent versions may not maximize on improvements & Nintendo wouldn’t be able to ask for as much money.
By coming out with the original switch, and then this one, they essentially maximized profits.
Seeing Anthony put a drill to the screen protector from Dbrand and it’s unscathed is nuts. I’m glad I got one on my steam deck.
Or literally any other screen protector.
Metal doesn't scratch glass
@@mistamaog At least for me that's a huge surprise. I expected the drill to easily go through that poor Switch.
@@mistamaoglmao! And rocks can't rip through a sheet of paper.
“The definitive experience” is a good way to put it. Whether you want it or not is up to you. I’m happy with mine. It’s great to see the “pros” say the same things I have to say about it! Thanks for vindicating me and keeping my tech echo chamber in full swing.
The OLED model actually has a new color setting in the system menu and defaults to "vivid". That's why the color is much more saturated.
Actually, VIVID is default, they said in a developer interview that the "Standard" mode is just intended to look like the LCD screen.
@@timotheatae actually makes sense to be in this way, since most of oled display has a wider color gamut by default nowdays.
@@ES-qy2ju As long as it's accurate, but my guess it's it's as accurate as an LG OLED in vivid mode. People are disappointed when you get the perfect SRGB output that games are designed in.
@@Jaker788 well, the vivid profile is rather the native color of the panel, the standard profile limits the maximum saturation of the panel by software, in any case i would not expect the Standard profile to be really accurate either, just typical.
@@ES-qy2ju There's no real "native" color of a panel, it'll do whatever color you ask for, the range is just higher and denser on 10 bit panels, which this may not even be. But using a vivid profile completely jacks up the requested color into something oversaturated and wrong because the display is interpreting in the wrong color space (SRGB or REC 709 as the output but interpreting it in REC 2020), a calibrated profile would look more muted but closest to how it really was in real life. That's how a lot of HDR TVs do vivid profiles, if it's not a 10 bit panel, it's essentially just moving the color space target to be more saturated and "look good". In video games I think it's up to some preference, but live action or TV it's just too much.
Apparently they're actually just as bright, but the oled looks brighter because of the higher contrast
really dig the username man
Also because the old switch screen isn’t laminated leading to higher reflections.
and a bigger screen dose always looks brighter
I don't buy this for a second. Source for professional brightness testing or GTFO.
pretty sure this is false, they might emit the same brightness but the old switch had alot more layers to send the light through, whereas the new oled has self emiting pixels, so the light is alot more pure and unobstructed
there’s actually a new “console display colors” option for this new Switch that defaults to “vibrant”, you can switch it back to “standard” as I did if you prefer it less saturated, though ideally i’d love an option that splits the difference between the two
I don't see why this is an option Nintendo couldn't give normal switch users. I mean after what 4 years, they decided to give the normal switch plebs the opportunity to connect bluetooth audio devices to their console.
Nintendo could give a lot to the standard and the switch lite, they just don't want to.
Heck I bet if they sat down abit they could also probably drastically improve internet stability or or do performance optimizing on the older devices.
@@Daniel-dj7fh the oled version likely has a wider color gamut. lcd won't be able to display the colors well at all. it would be messy.
@@Daniel-dj7fh now we just need Sony to let us connect Bluetooth audio devices. But instead they produce there own proprietary “lossless audio” system for like 2 products
I love watching videos with Anthony. Great guy and presentation.
I believe the screen does actually start in a vibrant mode that you can switch to normal
@@agnez1739 You could.... SWITCH!!!!!!
It did for me, so I believe it should for everybody else as well :)
It does.
I remember my parents proudly showing me the atomic purple game boy color they got me for Christmas and how cool it was you could see all the inner workings. The see-through cases are always a win for me.
Believe it out not, there was a time where all the high end electronics use see through plastics lol
The quality leaves a bit to be desired, though. I've bought a couple of transparent shells that looked absolutely fantastic, but never fit quite right. The shoulder buttons' feeling was also a bit off. But boy, they looked great.
I had the solid purple one I always wanted the see through ice blue one though 😍
@@Skooz you mean the time I was in federal prison?
Yea but you do know that the joycons only have a skin on right. The cases aren't really transparent over there.
Anthony is hands down the best guy LTT hired ever.
Anthony is so friggin great man, i wish i had a friend that was half as nice as him, it would be cold day in hell before anyone just gave me their switch beacuse mine got lost or stolen. Phenomenal guy, definitely deserves more screen time and absolutely a raise ;)
I wish I could have a morbidly obese friend too so when I am starving to death In the apocalypse I will have plenty of fat to eat
@@reflectionofperfection8659 dudewtf
So many Anthony comments on this channel, must be a conspiracy.
is it just me or do we all ❤️ anthony?
The intro is the most Canadian thing I’ve ever heard
It also seems like a reference to the old "NINTENDO 64!!!" video.
The "SWIIIIIIIIITCH!" or the "I had this cool thing, but I gave it away to my friend."? I totally agree with the latter. :)
Love how dbrand only trolls and messes with Linus
I loved the link /shortlinus
You should see them on twitter
Man, the "stand" mechanism is outstanding. Just imagine how precise it is that it doesnt bend to the Switch weight.
I’m getting my son a Switch this Xmas and this has kind of convinced me it’s worth spending the extra on the OLED version.
I'd love to get one for my brother, too bad they're already sold out, and scalpers are trying their best to make it impossible to buy at MSRP.
I walked into best buy 15 mins after they opened and bought 1 of 4 that they had. You could have easily gotten one if you just hit stores yesterday early.
@@mookiestinks1262 no stores in my town had any that weren't pre-orders. Gamestop, best buy, target, or walmart.
You’re an awesome brother 👍
@@gunstar420 did you go there, or did they tell you that over the phone?

Anthony stared shy on LINUS and this man has become one of my favorite people to watch. Know why? Cuz hes detailed, smart and HIGHLY skilled! He gives reviews that are real and even mistakes are shown. Even a pro cant be perfect and mistakes happen and we all people! GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!
Anthony is just soo sweet… He gave his own switch to a friend in dire need. Is there anything else to say then that’s just wholesome.
there is a vivid colour mode that is on by default that makes everything looks slightly more oversaturated. I recommend switching it tot he normal mode. The colours and everything still pop as an oled should. But its way more natural and accurate looking.
You are playing a game who cares about that m8
@@stefanjakobsen6038 bruh color means alot in video games now it makes a massive difference imo.
Ranchdressing69 what you on about
@Ranchdressing69 do you know the definition of coward? it means someone who lacks courage to do risky things. there is no world where your use of coward makes sense
@@toilet844 color accuracy means fuck all in a video game
yay! more fun with anthony! even if the content doesnt really interest me (like a nintendo) i still watch when it's anthony because he has such a cool take on so much hardware
The back plate that covers the cables on the back of the dock, also covers the back vent & makes Switches overheat & bend. Lil fun fact, but I'm glad they made it easier to remove.
I love the little cameo by Linus, and how he jumps back out of the way like "sorry, I don't want to take over your video"
The one thing Nintendo nails is wringing every last cent out of years-out-of-date hardware.
and they are always fun
But those damn games man they sure know how to make some sick shit.
Yeah. After 4/5 years of selling already outdated hardware by the time it came out, they think it's fair to still increase the price $50 to justify an OLED display(and a better stand and ethernet port, wow). And people still give the excuse of "shortages", "OLED is more expensive" as if that justifies it. Nintendo is probably the only company that actually manages to sell a console for a good profit at launch and still have people defend it's high price. I still can't believe we have the same shitty Tegra chip after so long. Like, sure it still plays games good enough and still gets debatably decent ports but it's crazy that we have to justify that when we could have something so so much better. Nintendo's console margins are so much higher than the competition, and people just keep buying it, so they'll just keep doing what they do well which is games. And people will happily overpay for weak outdated hardware to play their games and not realize that they could have something so much better. It's just sad there's no competition in this market, and the Steam Deck likely won't compete with it at all. I'd love to see an actual PSP2, something as good as the original PSP was back in the day, but now. Sadly I don't think we'll have anything close to that anytime soon.
@@notlekrut wanna write a novel while you’re at it mate?
hey, that's apple's job!
Good guy Anthony just gives away his switch to a friend that lost theirs. 🥺

One major problem I have which I can't believe they didn't change in the OLED is the charging port. It's so inconvenient to put it at the bottom whenever you want to play with the kickstand.
Its there because of the dock, it wouldn't have been able to charge in docked mode if it was on the top.
@@dinofzoi guess you could put it upside down lol
Anthony is so professional he doesn't even go easy on his sponsors.
Received mine yesterday, I actually though that the feel of the screen protector is not great. Might be stupid now that I know that there is actually glass underneath, but the first thing I did was to slap a tempered glass on, and I much prefer it. Except that, I really love it!
“I haven’t actually played breath of the wild.” That’s probably why you were fine giving your switch away
truly
I don't have the money to slap for breath of the wild
@@Daniel-dj7fh you gotta tho, it's the best game on the console
@@jpsalis a few months later and I actually bought it off a friend for a reasonable price.
It's currently with another friend, but once I have it back I'll give it a go.
That integration was really cool, probobly the first one i havent skipped
cultured shark
Anthony shark tips
Despite all the complaints I have with my gen2 lcd Switch, the OLED is worth the 50 bucks extra if you don't already own one.
If the wifi connection, lan connection were greatly improved on the oled, then for sure. Because I hate it how I still get crazy ass Ping on my lcd switch even with a working lan adapter.
From my personal testing with the switch hardware, I'm pretty sure the bad internet connectivity is a problem with the switches operating system, because on Android the wireless connectivity is way better
@@castor9907 I don't think you can even compare the wifi performance of the switch to any half cheap android phone or tablet.
But said the one on the switch is horrible.
Bluetooth also doens't work once you connect more than one device to it like a controller and speakers/headphones.
I’m “putting up with the old design” because I just leave it in the stand, or on those rare times I do take it out, I just don’t consider the kickstand to be a functioning part.
Same, because of Covid I don’t travel as often I did before.
@@ogikay7056 please get vaxxed if you aren’t already, but thanks for minding that recommendation from medical and science experts :)
I think I used it only once on an 8 hour bus ride to play super smash bros and mario kart with some dude sitting next to me.
Man, I only play it portable and I’ll “put up with it” because Im not going to shell out 300 for basically the same thing with a slightly better screen.
@@clavius5734 in general this is what I have seen in the comments for this new switch. It's not enough for people to upgrade, even if you don't have a switch I'd personally still get the old one
Y'all's vids are fun keep it up
Hey Anthony, thanks for the video! Love your opinions, thought I'd trust you with your take on the switch vs all the other videos and watched every second. Appreciate this video and explanations/breakdowns 😁
For anyone who hasn't tried it, D-brand actually has the best switch screen protector in the market. Its fantastic, I straight up forgot my switch was plastic underneath
I found the new table top kick stand very useful. I upgraded from the Lite and the difference is awesome. I feel like the gameplay is a lot better on the OLED.
It would be cool to see a full review video of you guys on the new switch
1:55 when Columbus found people in America
In Linus' defense: It's easy to justify preordering stuff when you have f*ck you money...
It's also easy to preordering because its kind of his job to review them.
He doesn't have fuck you money but he does have "I can make an impulse buy" money.
@@AdamWhistle1 the switch in the video was part of the dbrand ad. Linus pre-ordered one for personal use only.
Especially since he could probably sign it or something and then sell it for more than he paid for it.
@@BottomOfTheDumpsterFire He ABSOLUTELY has "Fuck You" money. Even after putting what most of us would consider "Fuck You" money into investing in another company.
Would be nice to see how the OLED holds up over time with burn in etc
Bob Wulff (i think that’s how you spell his name) got an early review unit for the switch oled and left it on a very bright scene from breath of the wild for over a week straight without burn in, so we know it isnt super shit, but we have to wait and see long term test results. My guess is with regular play (3-6 hours most days) it’ll take at least a year to see burn in.
Yeah wulff den is testing it right now
@@jammo7370 Your comment was good until the last part.
That’s not how burn in works. Not at all.
@SplendidD101 People seem to forget this. I have barely heard of burn in in years but now for some reason it seems like everyone is an expert that has forgotten how many phones and such have oled screens.
@@jammo7370 Well, your guess is definitely nothing more then that
can we all take a moment for Anthony not playing BOW yet, DAM LINUS GIVE THIS MAN SOME TIME OFF WORK HAHA
It's never too late to start! I just played it for the first time this year. It's a fantastic game!
HAHA
BOTW*
saw my friends oled and i had to upgrade from lite. that screen is really nice. i wanted one so bad i payed walmarts marked up price through one of their third party sellers
Loving my OLED so far. That screen is a dream come true for an old dude with failing eyesight especially on text heavy games.
Awesome! Good for you man.
The larger screen is honestly the best part about the OLED model but even with that point I wonder why people don't just play it while docked when at home. There are obvious use cases like someone sharing a display with someone else in their house but everybody I know has more displays than people in their households so I'm not sure how many people that would apply towards.
I just wanted Linus to quickly compare it against his experience with the Steam Deck
Nintendo won't allow that
@BearApps the Deck might be able to run BOTW.
@BearApps you're aren't stealing from devs, you're stealing from Nintendo fat cats. Or... Buy it once then emulate it
@BearApps mad,deck users will probably get BOTW and metroid dread at 60+ fps,while switch users are left with toxic buyers remorse.
also emulation is legal,so stay even more mad
@BearApps lmao imagine defending a company lol
Frankly, the kickstand and reduced bezels combined obviously with the OLED screen made the purchase worth it to me. I cannot go back to using my old model anymore, it just feels cheap in every way now, so it sits in my newer dock to act purely as a TV-bound console to play party games. I have never docked my OLED Switch, and I don't really intend to frankly. Just look at the opening menus in dark mode IN PERSON and I don't think you'd ever want to go back to an original switch, let alone the Lite. The screen also feels significantly larger even though the difference really isn't that big. Great video, but it's truly something you need to compare in person to really appreciate the differences. Of course there are alot of technical upgrades I would have liked to see, I really wanted a Switch Pro. At the price difference here though, if you're getting your first Switch there's not much of an argument to be made in favor of the small savings for an original.
I was browsing looking for a teardown of an OLED switch, as a person who never got an original and is looking to get one of these magical machines now.
My first thought upon seeing you in the thumbnail was 'This guy. This guy looks like a gen-u-ine aficionado"
I was tempted to get one before I remembered that I never use my Switch outside it's dock...

That's one reason why I wish Nintendo stuck to having an individual handheld and a home console. I love the hybrid quality but it really does take away from game performance. For me, I play switch 60/40 docked and handheld.
@@chazzilla8919 Yeah I really like small handhelds and imo the switch is too big to take around.
I hope they go back to regular handhelds and consoles next generation.
@@RisingRevengeance Yeah me too. I just take my switch around my apartment and over to a friend's house. Maybe a bus trip here or there but I never put it in my pocket lol. Always my case.
@@chazzilla8919 I've brought a psp and gba sp to work, could carry it around all day in a pocket. That's the kind of thing I want to be able to do with handhelds, perhaps that's not very common now.
Hahah i love how Anthony said that dbrand sponsors this video and right after that we says hes disappointed and robots failed him
What a madlad
LTT can say anything about robot.... Lmao
Those skins are cool. I love the clear look, but its so hard to find quality clear replacements.
The new kickstand is a game changer really. You said you feel like something is gonna break when you use it?
Well mine did lol. And for some reason I remember having lan running to my dock...
Mandela Effect?
When you synced up the Metroid gameplay you can really see the difference. I may have to get one again.
Late comment, I know, but I reckon that those scratch/pressure lines you get along the sides (where the bezels are) from using the Switch's original dock are much less of a concern for the OLED.
I play primarily in docked mode, so it's a shame to me that they didnt make a pro version or something with higher performance.
I use to it destroyed my battery now I'm debating getting a switch OLED so it can be portable
All they had to do was unlock more of the power available and waiting in the SoC. Like an additional performance profile. And then let *developers decide* whether or not to invest the time to support that.
Disappointing :/
Yeah, I only play docked.
@@optimust if they did that some developer would try pushing the limit and come up with a game that can only run on the pro also consoles are normally pushed to the limit already unlike pc which have a bit of wiggle room
@@xathridtech727 To be clear, I am thinking that the system would detect whether or not to engage the "performance plus mode". And perhaps even offer a menu option for the User to choose to engage since it would def shorten battery life.
Its a great pt that they would need to lean conservative like they did with the v1 to ensure consistency. But the current chips in the OLED and redbox v2 switches run at roughly half the wattage of the v1.
So I hoped they would "unlock" even 50% of that to help prop up the more demanding games :/
Glad to see that last minute: "don't buy it if you use it mainly whilst docked". I was concerned that this going to be over endorsed.
(I own a switch but rarely use it portably)

I have to admit it right now...I never skipped an Anthony sponsor segment. I just love them, great work!
I wish I was Anthony and would experience BOTW for the first time again. That was in the top 3 best game experiences I have ever had in 20 years of gaming.

dbrand is the only ad i watch they are always hilarious or cool. good job guys.

i feel like turning the drill on doesn't change much from just pressing it into the screen, the tip likely doesn't have a groove all the way down
I just picked up a gen 2 Switch a few days ago. The OLED would have been a no-brainer because those upgrades look great, but between the discounts and the launch price of the OLED version, it's a 60% increase in price here in Singapore!
Personally I think the price hike is what kills it for me, I don't think it's enough of a upgrade to justify the price
That is annoying how much they raise the price in other countries, a 60% increase in price, compared to the 15% in America, I can't blame you for choosing the V2.
@@jaseon619 Haha thanks for the thoughts! To be fair, MSRP is only a 20% price increase (which is more reasonable), but there also happened to be multiple stacking discounts for the Gen 2 going on.
@@jaseon619 Yea the only reason I got a v2 myself over the light is because a store was selling them with a secret coupon for 260 bucks instead of 340 bucks (last or 2 years ago prices). If you don't get any discounts the prices of these things are wack
Gawr Gura have seen this video
Hey I enjoy the content. First vid of yours and it's great !
I pre-ordered.... And actually received it on release day. In rural Australia of all places.
There's shell swap mods for both the joycons and console that are clear. Similar effect to the DBrand sticker but has depth.
And wastes 6 hours of your life
I did it twice and both times took a little over an hour. (One is atomic purple clear and the other ones just clear) I love it and I think its really just the better version of the dbrand shell.
@@KingALLO69 I've slowly been getting mine kitted in full glacier blue. Last bit is the front bezel which I'm not looking forward to, since you need to fully disassemble the console.
@@RavenBomb123 oh i have glacier blue joy con shells as well that I need to build together but I first need some new joy cons for that 😂. That color will be lit bro!
It's not wise to take apart the joy cons...For noobs. Almost destroyed mine when fixing the drift and replacing PCB. It's very easy to damage the ribbon cable and the damn ribbons have to be bent in a certain way or the LED indicators don't work.
@@valentineli305 I mean its not easy but with a little time on your hands its very much possible to do it... I for my part think its more than worth it to swap out the shells, even if there is a risk to damage your joy cons
the "seethrough" dbrand skin will never beat actually swapping the shell out for a transparent one
Duh, idek what this comment is bruh
Does the old switch fit in the new dock without any issues? If they sell the new dock on it's own I'm honestly tempted to get that as someone who plays almost exclusively in docked mode.
It's also worth pointing out that for the $50 you're also getting twice the internal storage as the old model. Not a ton considering it's 64gb vs 32gb and microSD storage is very cheap BUT some things like saves can't be stored on a microSD so it is worth mentioning.
Considering a switch after TOTK release but glad I found this - you're my spirit animal - love you :)
Hard to say if the lifetime of the OLED is that big of an issue. The OLED on the Vita (released 2012, almost 10 years ago) has shown that.
Cant believe they didn't notice that they are in fact, not the same size, and the oled is just enough bigger that no accessories will fit. Watching this while playing kakarot on my new oled switch. Its pretty nice. It's how the switch should have been when it first came out. Worth the upgrade? probably not, but I always play in handheld and love the bigger screen
But if fits the same in travel bags
It’s 3mm wider.
I fail to see how _no accessories_ will fit.
@@NoTraceOfSense no may have been a hyperbole but the game slot, headphone jack power and volume buttons are all in different locations, also the kickstand it's completely different. Most things may fit on the device but will probably not function properly.
@@stevew145 Yeah, I’m being dumb then.
I love that Linus was there haha
Thanks Alot I just ordered one it's on the way👍
was it worth it?
Anthony the type of friend I would love to have ....no Nintendo switch needed. Great character man, wish you nothing but all the best bro.
RIP everyone using headphones in the first seconds xD

I love my Switch Oled, and have my old one in the family room. I play all handheld and love love love the oled.
" I guess the robots have failed us." Need that saying on a shirt!
Ah yes
The Nintendo switch:
O’ Lord Everyone Disappeared (OLED) edition
Yet its still sold out everywhere.
Hahah
@@coolioam8137 to be fair, I can't even find socks at target right now so, being sold out I think is a poor measure of a product success during the pandemic.
@Pixel Man Okay doesn’t matter? Still means it’s a high demand product.
@@coolioam8137 NOOO SOMEONE MAKE SF7N Y OF ME FAVOUEITE COMPANY. INTENOD WASSWWWWWW NOOO I CRY AHAHAHDFOEMEN
But, you need to remember. Glass is glass, and glass breaks
Ok Jerry
So?
Bro you look just like my older brother lol I thought “is this Tony?”
Anyway happy new year!
After years I've decided to get a switch. Of course, I came to youtube to check out review videos and such. Clicked search and as soon as the results loaded I saw Anthony. One second later I heard Anthony yelling: "Nintendo SWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH" :D
I love ATT :D
Oh man Anthony, never hold a drill motor like that. Your hand could slip and you would be surprised how much damage you could experience before you are able to let go of the trigger.
Even though Linus really wished he could’ve done the entire video & I’m sure he would’ve done great, I’m glad it was Emily. Also, I see Dbrand kept the white Joy-Cons for themselves.
Thats hoodie that you have is super cool looking, where did you get it?
"Oh... Hi"... It made me smile
I was pretty much the perfect demographic for this thing. I have a launch day switch that's seen it's share of wear and tear, and I play primarily in handheld mode. Such a good upgrade.
But is it really worth the extra $350 when you already own one? If you think about it, the value of electronics depreciate over time, but instead of bumping down the price of the og switch, they ask $50 more for the new one. I have a heavily used launch day switch too, but I still can't seem to justify buying the OLED one to replace it.
@@azin6732 That's entirely up to the individual I guess. I've got plenty of mileage out of my old Switch and more than gotten my money's worth. Also one of it's wear and tear issues was a blue smudge on the screen presumably caused by damage to the lcd panel. Could I have just figured out how to replace that part? Maybe. But I just took it as an excuse to splurge on a shiny new switch with a way better screen.
@@RainbowCornet Right, then you are part of the demographic. I was initially under the impression that by wear and tear you meant wear on the body. A blue smudge on the screen would really annoy the hell out of me lol
@@azin6732 If you already own a Switch, you can sell your old one for over $200, and you won't be paying $350. Plus, I got mine discounted to around $300 from Wal-Mart as well.
Remember to not sell your current system until after you've gotten the OLED version. Nintendo's kinda backwards when it comes to transferring your games from one console to another.
This is such a hard decision for me, I play my switch almost exclusively in handheld mode but I feel like nintendo is going to release another switch and I should just wait. But if they don't I'll wish I had bought one sooner and still be annoyed... I wish multiple versions of the same console wasn't a thing.
it hasnt been a year since the oled came out so dont worry
@@hellaboof9443 i already bought it, don't regret it.
@Alpha I got the oled too and I love it, no buyers remorse. I'm a little bummed cuz i recently found out i can plug my switch into the aux cord for my astro a50 base station so i play with it hooked to my pc screen now, still love the big screen on the go though.
@Alpha As for joycon drift it seems pretty hit or miss. I have a weird habit of flicking sticks of controllers around for no reason (some kinda OCD thing i guess?) but I haven't had my joycons drift at all. And I flick those things hard, been trying to stop but its just a weird habit lol.
@@sks220 drift happens more often because of time on the joysticks. But the case on the joycon also doesn't support the back of the joystick, which means overtime using the stick (or using the stick click a lot) can put stress on it and reduce the contact between the resistive element and the wiper.
I have a relevant question first. is the skin on the switch the original or is it the ultra matte?
8:54 he's not talking about the screen, he's talking about the LTTStore Mousepad :)
