better late than never right
i don't know what it is every time i order
a shower curtain or soap or i don't know i'm going for bathroom things and examples
from amazon i get it like i don't know 9am soon as i wake up boom right at my front door
for the oled nintendo switch 5 p.m so here we go for the first time ever on youtube we're
gonna be unboxing the brand new oled switch i guarantee you have not seen an oled switch on
boxing before because today is the d that came out and no one no one had it before today no one
no one no one no one look everyone is the returning camera too you didn't think it
was just for pokemon cards did you no no all right first the box is very different
it's a completely different shape then again you know it's a completely different model
compared to the regular nintendo switch box it's nowhere near as long a little bit thicker
same depth there's also the red nintendo switch box that it's pretty much the same as
the original box it was just deeper because it had the carrying case in it still not as thick
if you are unfamiliar with the difference between the oled nintendo switch and the actual nintendo
switch oh i shouldn't have done this upside down that's essentially what we're going over today
we open it up and we're presented with nintendo switch and joy cons you have an option between red
and blue or white and white these guys i mean they were sitting in a truck so they feel pretty warm
they feel pretty basic they actually don't really feel any different at all ooh the
lnrs i don't know if it's just because they're brand new but they feel very
clicky very clicky i like that here are my custom joy cons that i had these painted from
honestly i don't even remember the website and here are the official nintendo switch joy cons
other than the amount of dust on the joystick right now pretty much exactly the same my people
did a great job painting these i could tell that these are unofficial because they were actually of
the neon pink neon green splatoon ones but yeah have you had painted nintendo switch joy-cons
they're going to be pretty dang similar pretty dang similar the actual unit we're
going to take a look at in a second inside of here we have a power brick an hdmi cable
a joy-con grip exactly the same as before feels like the same material the joy-con rails
and the oled switch with the white joy-cons comes with a white nintendo switch dock and oh
that's a very matte white dock with a sort of etched in logo i like that a lot the bottom has
a huge grippy down here so it's not going to be sliding everywhere if we look to the rear
the long rail across the top no longer has the cutout in there instead it's i mean it's still
kind of there but not really it's just very far back and instead of this weird tetris piece we
now have this semi-circle piece and in addition instead of this being a folding flap like this
by the way if you're unfamiliar this is the mario red blue switch dock it is now a removable piece
probably gonna lose unlike the original dock that has the power usb and hdmi we have power hdmi and
lan the grilles on the inside of this piece right here seem to be much smaller on the new model
it's pretty hard to see inside of there like i'm gonna have to shine a flashlight because
it's black on black but yeah three small cutouts as opposed to over here how it was six long cut
outs but i'm sure they would not do a mid-cycle refresh with not enough ventilation it looks like
we have a vent up here and down here instead of just the one slit in the middle which is nice and
as the old switches were just sort of like painted on material or i don't know exactly how it's on
there but that's just something added to the top as i mentioned before we now have it as an actual
indent like it's engraved in there in addition the large grip at the bottom replaces four small foot
pads right here i have a selection of nintendo switches including the original v1 switch that has
a very large problem with the kickstand that was not changed with any of the other regular switches
this being the animal crossing one these are my notes of which version of sword and shield play
through i had this is the mario red version here is the switch light zamasunta zeissian edition
and here is the v2 switch i'm now going to be removing the animal crossing switch i
just included that because i figured a lot of you guys had an animal crossing switch
we're going to put the switch light to the side and i'm mostly gonna be comparing the
first switch model the most recent limited edition revision and the newest version the first question
i was gonna say is it worth it i hate the question is it worth it worth is something that you measure
on your own personal scale but i will say this if you still own a v1 switch there are very large
advantages to the upgrading to the oled primarily handheld or primarily docked or a mixed user
significant advantages going from the v1 to the oled if you have a v2 switch that's the
one with the better chip and the significantly better battery life and you're a handheld user
then the only advantage is that you're going to have a much better screen and a better viewing
experience also we're going to talk about the kickstand if you use the tabletop mode at all on
any of your switch get the oled switch if you're primarily a dock user like me i very very very
rarely use my switch in handheld mode and i have a v2 switch there's not too much of an advantage to
go from the v2 to the oled switch all right let's just throw that out there in my opinion we're now
going to be removing the v1 switch and just kind of looking at the v2 switch this the mario edition
and the oled switch instead of the kickstand that is removable and by removable i mean
i guess it's sturdy oh there we go pulled it out there we go uh instead of it being a removable
kickstand that was designed to be that way that way when you dock it in if the kickstand is out
it's not going to break it's just going to pop off and you can pop it back in instead the new
kickstand is the entire length and it has a lot of mobility a lot of oh that that closed clasp
right at the very end there i'm at like three like 10 open and then
yeah that is satisfying on the inside is now where the serial number is going to be located
and this thing is not removing it's not removing at all this is still brand new so it's still very
tight in here very very tight hinge and that's designed so that you could play it
at the same angle as the previous switch which is a mostly upright angle if it's far away from you
yeah i'm like an airplane is impossible but now you can go down down down down down
down down oh it's my face hi hi i'm i'm seeing the camera now so you're seeing my face now right
cool this is very low look at that angle wish i had a protractor right now but if that's
90 and that's 180 it's right in the middle what is that 135 degrees
but like this could be right under me and i could get really bad neck pains just playing at that
angle so you could go anywhere in between and it does not feel like it's going anywhere in fact i
can kind of give it a little tappy tap and it's not really like falling back and i think that's
the biggest advantage especially for the tabletop users if you're a southern rapper from 2006 you're
going to be very interested in the grills the previous switch had this sort of curvy curve over
here with the grilles inside this now has just individual cutouts we still have the headphone
jack but it looks like it's sort of more part of the body and less separated this this one random
that we have a random thing i don't know what that is yet the power button and volume rockers are now
significantly smaller shorter and more recessed so that way in handheld mode it's going to be less of
a nuisance and more like you have to intentionally press the things i really like that game card slot
appears to be a rectangle now instead of a curved rectangle actually feels pretty much
exactly the same between the new one and the old one although that's a satisfying click down
you know that's in place here's a weird metric no one has talked about it's ever so slightly longer
ever so slightly longer yeah look at that that's that's how much hangs over that means that if you
have a thing like a like a switch grip it's not going to work anymore right hang on shout out
to satisfy for listen every time that they have a new color or new model they just send it to me so
shout out to them i love my switch grip pro fun fact me and a team of girls helped create and mold
the uh the smaller handled one my mario red switch fits in the switch grip nice and snug as it should
oh
oh the reels didn't look different or anything but that's a much more firm snap down
it also feels thinner just generally more refined like it's a nice refresh plus i haven't turned the
screen on yet but look at that bezel difference that's huge and now knowing that this is thicker
yet no i don't want to push this down further i could probably get it to fit but i might damage
my joycons so if you have any accessories that go from your switches left side left side to right
side you are not going to be able to use those accessories with an oled switch because it is
ever so slightly longer that's actually kind of an important thing great boom you learned something
we've talked about the dock we've talked about the kickstand we've talked about the joy cons
we've talked about the actual unit itself i think for the first time we're now going to power it up
that's a beautiful contrast so i recently just bought my first oled tv ever
and if you're not familiar it's a general that's nice
it's a general concept that wherever there's black and real black it's going
to be portrayed without any light at all instead it's just going to be blackness
and therefore you don't really know where the screen ends and begins new england clam router
yes that's my wi-fi so much so much more screen i didn't think it was gonna be that much more screen
all right if we're talking about max brightness here i just switched it to white theme i know i'm
a monster i'm just kidding i use it in dark theme i'm not a monster they do get very bright but
immediately there's a different feel of the screen which i wasn't expecting so much and i think i
think bob mentioned this this switch screen compared to this this is much colder feeling
i guess i'm gonna have to bring this iso down so you can kind of see but that's really not a good
example of it's not only a better screen it's also a different technology that's used for this screen
the color of the screen is different and i'm not even looking at icons yet i'm just looking at the
whites themselves between right here and right here and yeah it's not picking up on camera at
all so you're just gonna have to take my word of that it's like a blue greenish tint compared to
what appears to be a much warmer tint and i don't know if that makes sense
if you understand colors of lights think about it that way that this is a colder screen this is a
warmer screen maybe once my icons and stuff are on here i'm actually going to see a difference
i just put in a copy of pokemon shield before even you know restoring my save data and stuff
this is a huge difference i didn't think it was gonna be a huge difference it's a huge difference
this screen is gorgeous especially compared to that like now we're getting toward like the
level of brightness and clarity that would be on like higher end smartphones actually it kind of
definitely reminds me of like a like a samsung display isn't this by samsung i don't even know
it feels like uh like i'm looking at a screen of a galaxy edge if that makes any sense it's also
worth talking about the fact that this screen is still 720p and is not a 1080p screen just
like this this is a 720p screen this is a 720p screen that means that both of these models are
projecting the same resolution of image and because this screen is physically larger your
pixel density is not as compressed therefore if i were to take one square inch of here and one
square inch of here the original model will have more pixels in that inch than this model in theory
this is a sharper image and you know what i did see that firsthand when comparing the switch light
which has the smallest screen of them that things definitely are sharper on the switch like compared
to the switch so now that we're at the switch xl in other word the oled switch things are going to
be a little less sharp and i really don't want to compare anything this second just because
i'm in two different parts of the game this is still like the opening cut scene now that i'm in
the game officially and i'm staring at these two the screen doesn't feel any colder really in fact
it just kind of looks well one definitely brighter but two everything is richer in color it's like
if you were to take the original and saturate it more and while this does appear more blue for me
it's not showing up on camera so much but if you compare this back wall
it almost sort of looks yellowish orange little beige here it's very orange heavy
like this rug is more blue this rug is more red all of the colors are richer like
this now looks washed out compared to this overall it's a really beautiful looking screen
like i didn't have too much of a reason to keep playing on the red switch compared to all the
other limited edition ones other than the fact that you know it's red and a big fan of that color
but this it looks nice it feels nice feels a little a little bit heavier maybe maybe not
it would probably be something that i need to like actually measure it to tell it has it has
a good hand grip like it feels sturdy you know what i mean and this is gonna be something that
you're either gonna know about or you don't know about that after you hold your switch for so long
especially the v1 models or just maybe the amount of hours with the switch the reels start to feel
a little bit weaker if i were to go like this and sort of twist the body the joy cons to the rails
have a little bit of give to them the bottom part still has that give but the top is locked in a lot
firmer now so when i have my hands up here i feel less give i still feel the wiggle in the joy-con
rails though but when i'm holding it like this it feels sturdier if you have a v2 switch and you
don't play in handheld mode go to amazon and get yourself a five dollar usb ethernet adapter and
boom same experience if you have a v1 switch this not only has a better screen it has better battery
life it has a lot of differences from the original switches and it is worth that upgrade from a v2
primarily as a docked user not a big difference primarily as a handheld user oh yeah you're gonna
immediately see and feel a difference like a big one there you go those are my views thoughts and
