Still a bit young here, but after my 3ds broke my mom got me my first switch shortly after it came out, lasted me 4 years even with rough treatment, just this Christmas since my computer is having troubles i had to boot the old switch back up on life support, my mom got me a OLED, it is a massive upgrade

I can’t believe that one of the major features was a kick stand that doesn’t start sliding around halfway through
I have the normal, I recently played with a friend who has the OLED, and I think the normal one is enough for me, since I hardly ever play it handheld
My birthday was recently and my mom and dad got me a switch oled and I love it soo much!
Not only do I only play handheld, but I also have the oldest model with the bad battery life and am not tech savvy enough to upgrade it, so the OLED was a life saver, providing a much better experience and a much longer battery life.
As someone who bought an oled a week ago its literally game changing
I upgraded and looking back at the normal switch it honestly looks like a toy, i didnt think the screen would be that much better but it kinda is, the extra stotage is also pretty cool and the kickstand is amazing
I still have the original switch from when they first launched. It tends to lag a bit and the battery life is horrible but I'm holding out hoping they come out with a pro model before my current switch dies.
The only video I agree with, when old was announced people were saying it wasn't worth the $50 extra bc no performance upgrades, this was coming from people with 3 switches.
There are a lot of bundles on which your switch includes in, just choose the switch with your favorite game
Me: hehe Splatoon 3 switch go brrr
I remember getting the switch lite on Christmas and back then the screen looked pretty big, but now that i have the oled model the screen looks sooo tiny.
if you prefer handheld mode get an OLED it has bigger screen, more storage, more colors and better sound. if you want more internet speed, get the OLED as it has the wired connection thing (déjà vu?)
I upgraded from the standard one and I’m so glad I did
If you know that you are going to use handheld mode a lot it is worth it, but if you use it exclusively for handheld mode I would highly recommend getting the switch lite because it is much more comfortable and more economical. And if you don’t know and want to save extra money get the regular most people I have met only use handheld mode for
I have an OLED, and it really depends on quite a few things… How often you use handheld How long/often you tend to play How heavy/many games you want to play Special editions As somebody who has an average of 100-300 hours per game I play, and tends to play at least 3 hours a day, for me it was worth it.
Probably gonna get the splatoon 3 switch when it comes out and get my regular switch homebrewed to play mods
@LilfoxTheHybridHylian5967

The thing is... Not all switches are capable of homebrewing
America: Switch OLED is only 50 DolLars more than the regular switch Meanwhile here in England: Switch for £50 Switch Oled for £75 Levelllsssss
Yeah, I'd agree with this.
Here in Greece its actually cheaper for some reason and the switch is 280 while the oled is 320 so I ordered the oled with scarlet which was 40 and an off brand 10 dollar case for it all for 370, I think it was an awesome deal!
I have a launch-day Switch, launch-day Switch Lite, launch-day Switch OLED, and Zelda TotK edition Switch OLED. I'm a collector tho. Still need to get my hands on a HAC-001(-01)
Understood. Grinding all the way up to get cash flow to burn onto the Splatoon 3 Themed OLED Model. Let's-a-go!
I do have an original Switch, I still bought the Switch OLED anyways. Let's just say that it's awesome, also i gave the original to my kid.
For me is worthy, I borrowed the V1 from a friend of mine, I can't stand the screen not bright enough for me, everything was dark. I bought Oled a week ago, is much clear and the joystick doesn't wobble. Maybe is because is still new but I like this better.
Me who around two weeks beformė changed from normal switch to oled.Jeez this man is crazy
I wonder what the next handheld console Nintendo will make after they end the line for the switch just like the game boy or DS
It also has double the memory without any micro sd card added on
You saved my life dude, every video says like "better stand means its better than Switch." But you explained it great.
My switch has loads of scratches on the back and a fe won screen so trading it in and getting an oiled for a bit more was a definite yes
Me: Ok. buys off moms creditcard
Allow the thought that it has a glass screen cross your mind while mid air of dropping it
still keeping my normal switch
I bought an oled and put a modchip in it. So far it’s been totally worth it.
Depends on where you play If you take your switch on the go get an oled but if you usually keep it at home just get the regular version but i wouldn't recommend buying an oled if you already have a regular switch but you can upgrade if you have the often forgotten lite version but thats just my opinion
“Ethernet port in the dock which not that many people use" Me who wants consistent internet speed on every internet enabled device i own that has ethernet as an option: Weak
If you use handheld mode a lot I’d say it’s worth it, but if you’re like me and you leave it in the dock most of the time then just get a normal switch.

@TheChoujinYonko how? It’s literally more similar to a handheld than a home console. You literally never need to connect the console to a TV or something like that. If you really wanted to, you could only use the dock for charging and only play in portable mode.

@TheChoujinYonko 1. I do have my facts straight. I never said anything incorrect. 2. Nintendo mostly advertised it as a portable console. I have no clue what you’re talking about.
Recently bought a used OLED in excellent condition with 5 games on Marketplace for $150 🎉
The dock is actually better with what's been added to it 😄
What I want is a Switch that can show all the little details and be able to tank the graphics without losing too many frames per second and a MUCH larger amount of storage and battery. The storage can’t handle more than 20 small and big games. And the battery is worse than an iPhone, which has a reputation for having a small battery capacity. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the cooling system - or the lack thereof. Oh, and they have SO MUCH POTENTIAL FOR VR, BUT DO THEY ACTUALLY TRY TO USE IT!? NO!!! They even made a port of Five Nights at Freddy’s Help Wanted, which is so much better in VR, but do they allow Labo compatibility? NO!!! They barely even use the gyro controls! I really want games like Hand Physics VR and games where you can physically move around and actually interact with objects and the environment, and I would pay up to $100 for a game like that! But Nintendo just doesn’t do what everyone wants them to do and sits in the giant pit of complaints and criticisms that they create for themselves
I will buy it at a discounted price after the next nintendo console released i dont want to pay fullprice for a second switch
They should bump switch down to 250 as it is almost 6 years old and have oled as 300, which is still quite expensive for the hardware
I have a question: Is it worth it to buy the Switch OLED even though you're on a $360 budget? I can't make my mind up. I don't have a switch yet and want to get it but just with $10 left, I can't really buy a game.
As someone who owned a switch switch oled and a switch lite. I kept the switch lite and sold the others.
My V1 launch day switch has had so many memories with me. The focus of actually performing well is still important, but taking in the fun of the game is my priority. I thought the original switch had a good screen, so the only reason why I plan to upgrade to the OLED switch is because the battery is so burnt out. I can’t wait to see the beauty of new games now with the beautiful screen :) If anyone wants a great condition V1 hackable switch message me lmao
Him: if you don't have a nintendo switch get the oled model Me who doesn't have a switch: no I don't think I will
So pretty much, if you dock more, get the normal, but if you use handheld more, than its nicer to get the OLED? Is what im getting?
That nice little white makes it worth that 50 bucks immediately.
I upgraded because the game reader pins got bent and Best Buy couldn’t fix it so they gave store credit
I have had a v2 switch and lost it so here I am now I have bought the oled it is ready to be opened on Christmas day
Glad i got the oled for my first switch
I upgraded to the OLED because i wanted to
I have the normal switch out in the living room and the OLED is mine to play wherever.
I think it's more worth it if the reason why you're buying the switch is to play in a handheld mode more often then docked
Yeah I’m waiting for them to actually upgrade the software not just the aesthetics.
You forgot to mention how joy-con drift is still a thing, (Which was more than enough to convince me to get a PS5. Way more worth when you can play your favorite games at its fullest.) the switch itself tends to lag on bigger games that are meant to work on bigger consoles, and the fact that the online thing doesn’t work at all along with its emulator which sucks because then nothing works. It’s literally a waste of money on both consoles. You can get a PlayStation 4 or an Xbox One and guaranteed, those will work far better than the Nintendo Switch. Sure they set up an online paywall like how Nintendo did but at least their online service doesn’t suck. You can even play older games which, while not being as old, it can still be fun.
I'd only buy it if my switch got broken or something. It would be a different story if it was more powerful but it literally is just what the switch should have been in the first place.
Thanks, this is really helpful :)
"Just 50$" Me living in Poland 💀
My switch if falling apart, the left joystick is so worn out from 4 years of use, so I’m getting the OLED
I had to change my switch bcuz mine had water damage & tbh it’s a lot different & definitely worth it. Since I also play more in handheld
It also has more base storage than the normal switch (64gb instead of 32gb)
I have never used the “regular” switch soo I don’t know the difference but I do have the OLED Version it’s pretty sweet with taxes and a gave it will run u to like $450 if u get a case for it and screen protector maybe $500
Honestly if you play your switch more in handheld mode the old it is definitely worth it

I'll be upgrading to the OLED only because it's the Splatoon 3 edition, but I'm honestly looking forward to giving my original switch a break, it could use it!
Another thing is the performance. The oled can give out a lot more
Tbh if you already have a switch it’s definitely not worth the upgrade. If you don’t already have one then I still don’t see why you would pay an extra 50 dollars for a switch that is basically the same with a few minor upgrades. + if you play on docked mode then it’s useless
If you mainly use the dock though its not really worth it

my switch was on it's last legs so I upgraded to the switch OLED and it's so good
It's worth it to get for the first time but not enough warrant an upgrade
I can’t play on my normal switch a lot bc the oled screen is that good
I hate how the wide kickstand wasn't included on the regular switch.
I upgraded from the original switch into the oled I can say they’re both great consoles depending on which console you want
Were also paying 50$ more for more storage.
I have the normal switch but I really want the OLED model because I think it looks really nice with the white joy con's and I like the screen a bit more than the normal one
I upgraded because I had audio, fan, and screen issues with my old switch.
I honestly have no idea on what I want to do. I want a new switch because the one that I have I’ve had since I was 7. But I also don’t want to pay for the new one.
The Splatoon Switch is the only thing making me want to upgrade👀
I got the switch for free my friends house caught on fire and after they got everything they wanted he told me anything I find in the house I could keep and in the room that got the worse was a brand new switch perfectly find but the box was burnt just thought id share that
I have a switch lite and I'm thinking about upgrading to the old model,I have a lot of saving up to do!
There isn't going to be a Switch Pro, this was the revision that was rumored
I got it despite having the normal switch and it’s really worth it especially when traveling
