    As an illustrator I can see even without calorimeter, that green is oversaturated and red undersaturated. And I agree with you, we need a manual adjustment option!

    You are a video making machine. I wish there was some sort of HDR implementation even if only in docked mode but the device feels very solid and premium. That OLED screen is a huge jump in quality over the LCD.

    I think the HDR would've been cool in handled mode and that would've been a big selling point too. If I was Nintendo, I would've put and HDR chip on the OLED that forces HDR in handheld mode and toggable in dock. It would've made a lot more sense. If it already looks so good without, I can't imagine how it would with HDR!

    Even if I didn't understand almost anything, good job with this video! I have to admit that imo the Switch OLED is the ultimate console imo and the more I learn about it, the more jaw dropping it becomes! I think a casual gamer will not notice these minor things anyway. You may be wondering why my "ultimate console" doesn't have 4k. Well, until now I've been conpletely fine with Wii's 480p and even then some games look so sharp that it's hard to tell it's running at such low resolution (for exaple Super Smash Bros Brawl looks like HD at this point). So HD + good graphics + my favorite games + the ability to detatch controllers + the fact that since it comes with two controllers, I can do multiplayer at day one + it's portable and, not only it's portable, but also I don't need to turn off the console and close the game + motion controls like with the Wii + colorful and big OLED screen + you can actually attach controllers directly to the console and recharge them + it's pretty big for a handheld (and that's a good thing for me) + a lot more third party games than the Wii, thanks to the good graphics it has and finally I will experience a little downgrade instead of a different game with the same name and you understand why I love it so much! That + tons of extra points because, since it's new it's automatically cooler!!!! Also I think I'm going with vivid because I'm playing cartoony games like Mario and few more serious games, but also I should test it before saying anything. I like even just looking at it even when it's off, the design of it is perfect IMO and I don't think the next Nintendo console will surpass it. I subscribed by the way! 😃

    A middle option would be ideal. Between vivid and standard, I prefer vivid for most games. Standard is far too "dead" when it comes to reds, but then I think vivid makes greens far too bright and yellowish. It depends on the game, to be honest. A darker, more realistic game will obviously look WRONG on vivid, but a colorful platformer will look gorgeous on vivid and far too muted on standard. Oh gawd, I wish there was a manual calibration option, but Nintendo would never go for that.

    Off topic but If you haven't played Far Cry 6 on Series X Amok you should give it a go. I'm having a ball on it Co op. The HDR implementation looks fantastic on it (option settings set at 800 nit brightness with 200 on paper white running HGIG) If you do get make sure you download the free HD Texture Pack in add ons for it. It really makes a difference in the visuals. Pretty amazing imo that it looks as good as it does.

    I wonder why we still do not have a better color format. The current 255,255,255 model is not good because the sources have color gamut info already baked in, then display controller needs to know what the sources are originally(sRGB or whatever) made to figure how to properly display it(eg. Windows color profile/Surface Pro quick color setting tile) Why can't we get something like RAW color -> display controller mapping unsupported color to supported color -> display, in this case bigger gamut range display can always accurately display any format in its capability, and let inferior display decide what to cut or convert.

    I have both a 2017 launch day Switch and an OLED. Oddly enough, my original unit looks better than the OLED since the whitepoint is closer to true white than on my OLED. It also has a greenish yellow tint whereas my original has a very very slight blue tint. I think it has to do with how Nintendo does not particularly care how the screens look as long as they are functional. Indeed, screen variations were a thing back on 3DS too. Honestly I'm considering returning my OLED to see if maybe I can get a better screen than the one I have now, as each screen seems to be a little different. UPDATE: I returned my OLED system to the store I bought it from. They exchanged it for a new system and that one looks a lot better than the last OLED they gave me.

    Hey, it is really random... on my LED V2 Switch it is nearly perfect D65 (103% red gain, Green 99,5 and Blue 100%.). That´s also the reason why i will stay with it. I don´t like to play the lottery... On my Brothers LED Switch it is only 76~% Red Gain and green 105%, Blue 99,8). So it will look a bit flat. But crazy my Switch is below delta e 3 and mostly 2, while my brother is delta e 5. It is visible specially when u know how d65 looks. It was also my first idea that red is too low, when i saw the screen at first. But i was thinking maybe 85% or 90, not only at 76%. But when u play with it a while it is not that bad. It is really Curse and blessing to do calibrations... because i now stay with my LED because it is more correct than having a bad OLED. I think i´m to crazy about accurate color tone :D

Yo no puedo confirmarlo pues mi unidad sufre de infrasaturación de rojos en la escala de grises y por lo tanto se ven los grises con tonos verdosos.
