The first 3 seconds of this video really almost made me stop watching... what in tf did he say
Ikr lol
@Aviation Ace still dunno wtf he said
@Aviation Ace ok
😂😂😂
this is a meme xd
The Switch Lite is dope! I have one. I play at work, in bed, at my desk, in the living room. It's extremely portable and clutch af
True, it’s also really lite …
@@funkyflights Ba dum tss!

if you are new to wanting to buy a switch, get the oled for the extra 32 gb on the system will come in handy than trying to find a readable memory card with more memory. still by all means buy a higher gb memory card too. your memory bank will fill up very fast if you have a lot of games like i do. if you can, buy a physical copy of the game instead of digital. digital copies take a lot of the memory in your memory card. plus you can't resell a digital copy once it has been used. the extra screen size is nice to have, and you can put the oled switch into a standard switch protecter travel case still incase nobody knows that. the new dock for oled is better and the stand is better as well. anybody should stay away from buying a nintendo switch lite. why? because the moving controls are still junk and will break and cause drifting, guess what, you can't replace the controls on the lite version and have to buy a whole new system in that case if you did not add a warranty to the system. if you buy the standard and oled models and the controls break and drift, you at least have the option to replace the controller. Add that extra year warranties to your controllers, because they have a chance to break within at least 6 months to a year. Oh and if your looking for better graphics people, buy a PS5, because the nintendo switch has lower graphics resolution, but you can play the switch portably which is better for travel purposes. hope this helps some.
I want to get the oled switch and currently doing logo design as freelancer to get closer to that goal and also help other to create a good branding logo! Do you or anyone you know need logo design? Let me know if you interested! :)
10:19 If you're paying +$50 _just_ for the screen, then it's definitely *not* worth it. However, if you bought it at least partly for the upgraded dock, completely redesigned kickstand, and internal storage, or *if you don't have a Switch at all,* then it starts to make a bit more sense.
I just ordered it and I din't have a switch so yeah it would make sense to me, but still I also think that someone who already has a switch should not waste money on buying the oled version
The screen makes all the difference and it's absolutely worth it. I sold my old Switch just because I almost always play portable. And I can really tell you my friend, I feel the console just revived for me. I love the colours, it's vibrant, every game feels so fresh just watching them trough that screen. Playing the old switch on portable with those big bezels felt like playing in 2011. I really recommend the Oled model. No regrets selling my old model at all. Also I forgot to mention how much more premium and well constructed it feels. Loving it so far.
if you're buying a switch for the first time the extra $50 is DEFINITELY worth it. you would never forgive yourself
@@keliswickland7936 You can literally buy a 64gb SD card for only like $17, you don't need to spend $50 extra for some redesigned console that is the same.
honestly +$50 for the screen alone is worth it... it just sucks that they didn't up the resolution or software. but a bigger screen that looks much better is worth it, but having a better dock and double the internal storage is just a plus.
The Switch has sold amazingly well (100million units sold) because of this fact I don’t think we will see a Switch Pro for sometime, because Nintendo don’t need one yet.
Nintendo doesn't make Pro Consoles, they make them 'Super'...
PlayStation makes them Pro...
Xbox makes them Elite..
Please Learn the Difference already.
@@gustavojoserodriguez7475 I stand corrected 😂
@@gustavojoserodriguez7475 it thought xbox made them x
@@Lu1giopl Xbox Series X X no
@@RealLava the series x is already the “pro” console
I personally don't think that the switch lite is a switch at all since it can't switch
It should be just called a Nintendo ( )
Excelente comparación, el mejor video que he visto de este tipo
Thank you for your knowledge and information on the Nintendo Switch. Your awsome!!
What games did you play in this video? Great review!
for only handheld usage Lite is my choice, Oled has got double price for just a screen if it has better hardware than it will be worthy (oh sorry longer battery times but I can live with lite charging it a bit more often)
I think just get the v2 cuz of motion controls games
Detachable joycons. Stick drift on a lite ruins the whole console. Also more Storage space.
dude,it's not double the price.it's only 50 dollar diffrence and for the lite the screen way smaller and not worth getting unless you don't plan playing on the tv with it like ever.
I never play on TV, so paying double or triple for a screen and more battery is kinda lame
@@thesupernaturals1070 Repairing stick is way simpler on lite than a joy con
So do you think they're even gonna make a Switch Pro? Should i wait for that for getting a full switch?
Don’t say that. I just got the oled switch. Now I’m hoping the pro doesn’t come out
4:56 what did you expect in terms of ppi? The Lite has the same resolution as the other ones on a smaller display area.
The two to have are the Oled and the Lite. Ignore the Standard unless you don't care about handheld. In that case only get the Standard.
actually all we need is not 4K or etc. 1080p are more than enough for portability device. just 60 fps please. but again, nintendo will create bigger fan and bulky case for that. hmmmm
i really would like to get ANY of the switches,but i just cant afford the games. The problem is not the cost of the console itself,its the cost of the GAMES. 4 games in my country,any 4 games cost literally exactly as much as the console does. This is just unacceptable. Im probably just gonna go ahead and buy a ps vita and mod it.
I am buying a Nintendo switch also u can mod ps vita
What country do you reside in? If you buy 4 $60 games in the US it will be about $250 after tax, so I assume it is not that much more? But there are sales on games especially physically that can bring the price down.
You act like that’s abnormal!? You must be a child… bc for 4 or 5 switch games in any country including the USA they will run you 200-250 sometimes more (depending on what games you buy) so your whining makes no sense. If you don’t have the money just say that and move on instead of crying about things you can’t control!
Does this recommendation change now that you can get the og in a bundle with Mario Kart for $299? Im trying to decide and I'm so torn.
So it wouldn't be worth upgrading to the regular 2019 Switch if I have a Lite and want better performance?
nope,better to get the oled with oled screen and full back kickstand and better speakers and that all the 3 work the same exsept the lite.
@@azurekite3870 depends if you mostly play handheld or on the tv
Thank you for smart comparison. Just came across the dude, who told PS5 is comparison to its digital model is the same as Series X in comparison to S model After that example I just closed the videos with understanding that the man has no clue, and kept on looking for another one. This one did the trick for me.
I bought the OLED yesterday, this is my 1st console purchase since the WiiU, (bought an Oculus last yr) I'm not a gamer per say but I enjoy playing when I have time and I'm more of a hand held player, is it best to exchange the OLED for the Lite since I won't be playing much? My kids have Playstations and XBoxs so they aren't any help advice wise.
It depends, if you want to use the switch in portable mode especially outside the home, the lite is definitely for you. But if you mostly play at home, OLED is much better.
Definitely exchange the Oled for a lite. You’ve already stated that at home your children have a PS5 and Xbox one which are superior to switch already. Just like me I don’t even play my PS 4 pro that my brother has because I’m playing Lite all the time. I play it on the couch, in my bed, at the dinner table, at work, on the train, in the car if I’m getting a ride basically any chance I get to play my switch, I’m playing it.
You have kids so I already know you grew up when the game boy came out so TRUST ME, exchange the Oled for the lite. Individuals like us that grew up doing the gameboy and gameboy color generation and also already have consoles at home don’t need a switch.
We prefer the lite! You’ll love it bro. I have over 50+ games on my switch lite and I’ve had for 3 years now and haven’t experienced any drift issues so don’t worry about those nonsense comments brodie.
@fiifi johnson thanks for the reply, I definitely made the "switch" to the Lite, and I feel like that was the best decision!!
@@itsShay_duh504 that’s what I’m talking bout!!
@@josh23.but the switch OLED is better in handheld mode I’m at home most of the time why would I play docked mode ? I use a skull & co neogrip with my switch OLED and my custom gameboy joycons.
Hard to tell, i really really want to play Metroid Prime again, but euhm 440$ to play 2 games (+Pokemon) is kinda expensive. But the TV OUT option is also a must.
I think one day they could make the opposite of a Switch lite. A Switch that can exclusively be used in TV mode instead. For people who don't care about portability!
so like a playstation?
@aghost4879 Not exactly, it's still a Nintendo system that's designed for playing Nintendo software
Thats just the regular switch though hahaha
@cchristianjeremy I mean a switch that can't be un-docked
I definitely want a OLED
Same
I ended up getting the OLED like I think 2 days after this
@@tinafarlow739 what is the reason
I got a OLED now and it’s awesome I don’t like the lite cause you can’t play it on the tv and I gave my lite to my nephew and I just think the OLED looks better
@@tinafarlow739 okay Good decision bro
Yea but there is no way to get a switch oled rn it’s out of stock
The only problem I have with the nintendo switch doc and oled is the disconnection from the joycon. if I were anyone I prefer the doc only for the Doc and Oled handheld sucks! but if you're going to travel where ever I prefer the Lit version.
wat the last game called ur playing
It too up to 2mins until he is talking about the switch, wow
Who puts the lite in there pocket and heads out.... No one
Some kids or travelers lol
Not Much people but some lol 😂
I put it in my pocket when I move around the house, lounge to garden etc.
the ppi difference devinitely noticable in my case, but not that far
Which should I buy? The oled or the lite?
@@dee_hfgblank1617 Lite :) Iam buying it today
@@dee_hfgblank1617 go for oled
Should I buy Metroid dread or Pokémon snap or even Pokémon sword ?
You should buy Metroid Dread and forget Pokemon.
Dread first, then sword and then snap.
Whatever is on sale. From a primarily PC gamer perspective, Switch games seem very expensove.
@@henryviiifake8244 yeah, i'm also a pc player and i just ordered my first switch, there are so many games i would like to try but they are very expensive for me
pOkemon Sword
For someone getting the switch for the first time ever should I just get the oled or v2?
I recommend you get the OLED.
@@LinkSergilBelmont thank you that's the one I ordered
@@BklynpimpstressHow's the oled for ya?
Which one has the best graphics between the three ?
They’re all the same as graphics go, the OLED just had better resolution and colors
@@thomaspeterson4346 it does not have better resolution
For me i just got the Regular, as a gift.
But its the one id choose at the end anyways
Perfect screen for bed, not too bright to kill my eyes.
Ability to Dock same as Oled. so i can Record Beautiful 1080p Switch footage with a capture card.
I thought that was for headphones and SPEAKERS
So i plugged them in and it made a noise that almost killed me
3:20 what game?
Monster Hunter Rise
6:23 what a game it is?
3:24 What game is it?
I'd like a Switch with an 8" to 10" 1080p screen, both analog sticks towards the top of the controllers so I don't get hand cramps from the tiny controllers, a battery that lasts for at least 6 hours of gameplay (my tablet lasts for around 20 hours of gameplay or watching movies from Netflix so it is possible).
I’m guessing this iteration would cost 400-500+ USD
Literally no tablet on the market is lasting 20 hours lol 😂
You must have some futuristic battery tech to be getting that.
My Samsung Galaxy A2 10" tablet lasts that long while playing Clash Royale and watching Netflix.
Is oled available on lite?
Nope. Only the switch oled has an oled screen
soon will come on 2022 end
@@GokuDUchiha don’t tell him that you’ll get him excited for nothing
🤦♂️
Me watching this after buying a new phone: I should have bought the Nintendo Lite😭
Having a good screen on Oled or older version is pointless because you still play it on your tv... you wont be playing it outside all the time because its not meant to be played outside, sure for travelling, but how many times do you travel everyday? Every week, month, years or decades and if you are travelling, would you waste your time playing nintendo switch during your trip. The best way nintendo can earn a huge amount of money is allowing lite version to connect to TV and i dont know if wireless controller work on lite
Can´t decide between OLED and Lite version as my first Switch. I´m worried that OLED will be too big in handheld and Lite too bad for it´s display.
Even the Lite is huge for a handheld. The Switch seems portable like a laptop, not like a Game Boy.
I literally have the same issue. I play only handheld so i dont need my switch to be able to switch. Thee switch lite surely will be more comfortable for handheld but the screen seems so small. I mean i have my old 3ds in the garage somewhere and the screen of the lite is only a lil better.
The comfort is important tho, i dont want my hands to become numb afzer 20 min playing
@@mayapapaya8343 If a Switch Lite's screen seems too small, just go for the Switch or Switch OLED.
In my opinion the most comfortable handheld is the Game Boy Advance (w/ aftermarket screen), followed by the normal size DS form factor. And the most pocketable handheld is the GBA SP. For handhelds, I think games designed for a small screen are more important than a big screen.
@@mayapapaya8343I have the switch OLED it’s big
But so what? I only play handheld and tabletop mode . I also have my skull & co neogrip in white and my custom gameboy joycons and I love it I would never get the swutch lite ever I’m sorry.
Even when I’m going out I still rather bring my switch OLED
@@ghosttiee9212 i got the oled and i love it. The screen is so nice and i dont even have a grip cuz the oled feels comfortable my hands 🥰
Imo there's no point in getting the Oled the og Switch is better for Tv considering it's $100 cheaper than the oled and the main difference is the screen while the Lite is best for handheld since it works more like a traditional handheld being smaller and the controllers don't detach the oled is best for handheld but imo the Lite is better in that category since it's $200 cheaper and is more portable and pocketable
Will the text in the switch lite be too small to read?
yes
Yes, i’m changing mine to oled model because i’m having trouble reading some texts in some games (e.g The Witcher 3). It’s been tough to me…47 years old…i’m getting old…
screen physical size : pixel density. no point having high dpi on a small screen. human eye limitation.
I bought a switch lite a month ago and had to sell it bcuz it was just to small for my hands to hold and use so I sold it and bought the new oled which actually fits my hand plus it’s nice to finally have oled andv4k
4K? Dunno where you got that from
@@Merkantoine lmao fr
@@LugiThePainDrinkerthe dock has nothing inside it that would upscale, it's compatible with HDMI 2.0, that's it. The switch OLED isn't. That just means that IF Nintendo were to release a 4k switch they could use the same dock
4K wht did u smoke
This Chris guys comment is complete bs. To anyone reading I’m 6”8 and have hands big enough to Palm a basketball. I just got the switch lite and no issues with it fitting in my hands or anything of the sort. Not everyone has sausage fingers like “Chriskorol4244”
i bought the oled because my switch hdmi thing was busted
I pay 300£ for a unused OLED (:
I wish they could make a switch lite dock that has the missing hardware and allows the lite to be played on TV/external display.
Wow you mean a normal switch?
@@SplashNotPro you're not clever, i literally mean make the Lite version a dock.
@@monstersmike4585 That just makes it a normal Switch
@@monstersmike4585 One Reason(A big one) the lite is cheaper is because it can’t be used for TV!
Well it would be a normal switch and cost a lot more money
MUSH MOUTH THE FIRST 3 seconds of the video the hell he say…????
The title is a rethorical question, of course the OLED is the best of the three, it came out 4 years later and has the highest price of the bunch. It would be ridiculous if it was otherwise. Nintendo has no real competitors in the handheld segment, they do not need to care about those 10-12 TFlops, as both Sony and Microsoft have no intention of throwing a competitor in that segment. If we are talking about home console instead, the Switch is holding on decently, despite the masochistic pricing policy. Talking about prices, 350 is quite a steep price for the OLED unit, so it only makes sense to buy it if you are going to play in handheld mode for at least half of the time. Otherwise save those 50 bucks and rather spend them for an extra game.
I just purchases an OLED Switch, I never play my OG Switch docked as I either play it in tabletop or handheld mode. (I have a fancy desktop set up to play in tabletop mode) I plan on trading in my OG Switch at Gamestop for the $200 trade in value, which is the only reason why I'm getting the OLED TBH lol
@@SuperKnux64 you are the type of customer to which the OLED is aimed. I play almost only docked, as I prefer playing on a TV screen and I also find the JoyCons, when attached to the screen, very uncomfortable.
Yes OLed only benefit Portable because on Dock only difference is direct internet connection
LaN cable Same output to t.v to the og Switch
@@RedSavage7 the LAN socket is also a small feature, you can use the USB adapter that came out back in the Wii days. Its all about the OLED screen really.
I hope someone tries to force their way into the handheld market on portability and battery life. Doesn't have to be better, just has to be good enough to force Nintendo to respond.
Bro you would pick a lite over the SWOLED 🤦🏻♂️
i know,and lite shouldn't have switch in it's name since it can't switch and not the best
i know,and lite shouldn't have switch in it's name since it can't switch and not the best
LITE all the way
the Switch that doesnt Switch. XD
the nintendo switch from wish
There’s literally nothing better about the lite though lmfao
Just having a switch is good enough for me, I ain’t spending extra just for better quality than quantity.
I have all three and the Lite is actually my favorite handheld experience by far. Something about the smaller size and solid build just feels right. Cozy.
That said, I’d never take a Lite as my only Switch. Giving up TV docking is just leaving way too much functionality on the table. If you can only have one, the OLED is the only one that really makes sense.
If it wasn't for the lack of rumble, it would be the Lite. The OLED doesn't even make a huge of a difference like the new hinge does.
I still like the Lite the most. By far the best as a pure handheld .
Ok, with more usage time: heck yes, the OLED makes a difference, despite the bigger form factor. I’m traveling with the Lite and missing the OLED like a smoker misses a cigarette.
oled makes the lite look bland and like a unofficial kids toy
@@eddiechestnuts1588 so true
dude the oled has more anc better changes then the lite. that it has a oled screen,better speakers and better kickstand and the lite can't switch at all and looks more like toy and worth buying.

unpatched switch is still best switch
Literally picked one up for 200 last week 😭 def worth it imo tho can’t beat cfw
nintendo switch sales are slowing down a bit but i don’t see a new “switch pro” or what ever their next console next gen console is this year because of their 1st party game titles selling extremely good sales. even though their sales are slowing down i don’t see a switch pro any time soon. maybe 2024 at it’s earliest. and i think it wouldn’t make sense for nintendo to release a pro this year especially since the switch is still selling a very good amount as well as the exclusive games for it. if they would to release it now it would mess them up because everybody would go for the pro and the switch sales will drop a bunch and it’s currently still selling very good. that’s just me though!
lol if u played dis in 2x spped🤣
Which one is your favorite switch ?
None pc gamer forever.
Why is the lite even called a switch? What does it switch to or from? There's no dock!
What's up folks it's fhfhxdhxhd squad 0:00
Been truthful *Oled is the best *Standard switch is the 2nd best *lite is the 3rd best.
NRRR!?!?!

Lite is extremely hard to beat in
Portability
I fell the OG Nintendo switch is the best for me because I don't want to spend $50 more just for a bigger screen and not the light because ti can not even switch I don't know why Nintendo thought that would be a good idea

Lite is amazing. OLED is nice but unless it has beefed up hardware or you really need TV play, the lite has more benefits.

Long story short the regular switch offers better features.
Yeah bruh but some ppl are tight on budget or they don't have a TV or they rather playing in handheld mode, so it's quite worth it depending on your needs
Depends on ur needs my advice.
If you play hand held only go Lite
Tv only regular switch
If both hand Tv Oled
Well I have a PS5 for TV gaming. I brought the switch lite for handheld tf I want to play switch on the TV for that's dumb
thumbs down for the switch lite recommendation.. that version is designed for children!!!
No? It's designed to be compact and portable. I own a v2 switch but I know someone who only plays portable and it is perfect size and design for portable only play.
@@grim9464 yes you are right it's very portable but that's about the only feature it has and it's cheaper than the normal version with pretty colours that will make a nice birthday gift for a kid. I've traded my lite for the oled version and in my opinion it does represent the best value for money for a switch!
@@sstainlesst I never said the oled wasn't the best value of all three but I disagreed with your statement that the switch Lite is JUST for children. There are the pretty color versions that are obviously marketed towards children and those with an eye for bright objects and even sleeker black and grey designs. It is Nintendo afterall. The original switch is marketed towards children just as much the lite.
That's kinda weird to say especially since nitendo games are generally for kids but that doesn't mean adults can't play them lol 😂 (I personally think that I'll buy the lite because I don't really watch TV or don't at all so their is no point to buy the original )
