Learn more about the Nintendo Switch OLED model

The Nintendo Switch OLED launched on October 8th, 2021, followed by Switch exclusive Metroid Dread, which made a great pairing. The Nintendo Switch OLED model offers players an even better way to experience Nintendo games thanks to a larger, better-quality screen. The 7-inch OLED will render both recent and upcoming Nintendo Switch games more beautifully than ever, presenting graphics using a vivid level of colour that isn’t possible on other Switch console models.

One of the main reasons to pick up a Nintendo Switch OLED this year is the incredible catalogue of games which was only strengthened last year with the incredible The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This year the Switch shows no signs of stopping with exclusives like Princess Peach Showtime & Mario Vs. Donkey Kong being just around the corner, we have an article on all the Nintendo Switch exclusives coming in 2024 if you're curious. With a great back catalogue of exclusives, third-party gems and upcoming releases there's plenty to enjoy if you decide to purchase a Nintendo Switch OLED.

The overall size of the Nintendo Switch OLED model isn’t bigger or smaller than the standard Switch, but the screen can achieve 7 inches of space thanks to the much slimmer bezel. High-contrast levels and improved colour variation ensure that people who play Nintendo Switch on the go now receive a premium experience, akin to what you’d typically see when playing games on an OLED TV. At launch, the Nintendo Switch OLED model was available in two colour SKUs: Neon and White. It has also had four different special editions over the years to celebrate the release of titles like Tears of the Kingdom and Pokémon Scarlet.

A wide adjustable stand for better tabletop play

The Nintendo Switch OLED model features a wider stand than any other Switch model, letting you set the console down to play in tabletop mode without risk of it toppling over. This makes for an ideal viewing angle in which to enjoy the new 7-inch OLED screen in all its glory.

64GB of built-in memory – double than before

The standard Nintendo Switch comes with 32GB of internal storage. The new OLED model, however, effectively doubles that to 64GB. This means more space to store all your digital Nintendo games before having to expand it through a MicroSD card.

Improved dock with dedicated LAN port

If you’re a Nintendo Switch owner that enjoys playing multiplayer, the Switch OLED model gives you a method to effectively cut out lag with the addition of a wired LAN port. Not only will this allow for more stable online play, but should eradicate slowdown when playing Cloud games.

Onboard front-facing speakers deliver enhanced audio

The Nintendo Switch OLED model packs a better audio punch thanks to the redesigned unit which places speakers on the front rather than back. This ensures you can enjoy enhanced sound when playing in handheld or tabletop modes.

Represent your favourite series with Nintendo Switch OLED Special Editions

Unlike Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo keeps the tradition of special edition consoles alive with simultaneous releases of their big titles. We saw a vibrant Splatoon 3 Nintendo Switch OLED in September 2022; then we had the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Nintendo Switch OLED in November of 2022. When it comes to the Nintendo Switch OLED Special Editions you tend to pay around a £20-30 premium for a different dock and joy-cons when compared to the White and Neon Blue/Red versions of the Nintendo Switch OLED.

It's important to note that these special edition Nintendo Switch consoles tend to not come with their associated games. This is a bit of a shame but if you're a huge fan of a game series and in the market for a new Nintendo Switch, these special editions are tempting. Keep in mind they tend to always sell out and have limited runs of stock with both the aforementioned limited edition consoles being quite tough to find close to RRP.

The latest and still currently available Nintendo Switch OLEDs are The Legend of Zelda Tears of The Kingdom limited edition OLED console and the Mario Red OLED that was released to celebrate Mario day back in October last year. With rumours of Nintendo looking to launch new hardware late this year, these may be the last special edition OLED consoles we see.
