I picked up the switch lite earlier this year to have something to play on my downtime for a trip. I’m also a dad that works full time and goes to school, so I only play handheld when I can. It’s so useful when my daughter is asleep and I wanna sneak in a session with my headphones on to keep quiet. Don’t regret my purchase whatsoever.
In proud of you for doing so much at once man keep up the hard work it'll be worth it :)
@@sonicsays3246 Wow, thank you. It means a lot. Much love 🫶🏻
Got the regular model 2 switch in 2019 (one with the better battery) and I am still happy with it and see little to no point in upgrading just because the screen is bigger. Save your money and wait till a pro hopefully comes and just stick with what you have and remember if it is not broken do not fix it plain and simple.
yeahhhh I should've taken this advice ages ago, im a silly girl and decided to buy the switch oled even tho i had the standard and the oled ended up having a horrible screen defect (grainy green tint on greys) and the wireless chip was busted, apparently like 50% of all switch oled models have these issues, i took it straight back and got a refund lol im good with my V2 🥹
They all suck
I got the V1 switch but it’s the Pokémon Let’s Go one. Still going strong. Ima wait for a pro

@@SOREI lol what are you implying
I believe the $100 difference between Lite and OG is justified. Just to have the option of either docking and being able to detach the joycons is great. I've tried playing Mario Kart 8 with friends and family undocked. It's not a displeasing experience but having it on the TV is much better. My wife and I love Mario Party so the two joycons are a must. Sometimes when I'm sitting at a table I detach the joycons and have the Switch sitting on the table top, getting comfortable on my chair while I use a joycon in each hand. Even lying down, if you get lost in a game it's nice to be able to put the switch down, get yourself comfortable and still be able to play without tiring your hands. OLED is much prettier but what makes me want to save my money is that the processor is exactly the same as the OG. No performance upgrade what so ever. Ethernet port is capped so wifi can probably perform better. I would kill for that sweet new stand tho lol. Now, in terms of storage it is definitely a must to get a micro SD card. 1T tho? I would say only if you Have to buy every release and/or you Only buy digital. Some games are massive but most aren't. I personally got a 400GB Sandisk Ultra. I buy mostly physical, got a few games off the eShop and I still have 322GB left on the card. I don't buy many games since it is a pretty expensive hobby. So I only get ones that Really attract my attention. I got the 400GB as precaution, just in case for some reason I can't get something physical then I at least have a good amount of space to download it. If you're like me then I can even see a 256GB sd card working out for you. Like I said, I got the 400 as a precaution. And those are my 2 Cents on that lol, hope it helps someone out there.
Thank you very much. Greatly appreciated, also kind of figuring if that price difference is worth it because I can use that extra money on more accessories for my kids.
Back in a day like 2 years ago I had the regular one , but I selled it (I'm a ps4 player) but my wife got the switch for Christmas, therefore I bought the OLED one to play AnimalCrossing with her...the oled is what the switch should has been before, unfortunately I already shredded Zelda botw in the past but impretty sure that the experience would have been way better one my new one
The OLED is by far the best version and I've owned all 3! :) Far superior screen and kickstand, best battery life, dockable..it's a no brainer!
Why all 3 😂
@@khaledzeineldin5060 Ong tho
I'd still say for the heavy traveler the OLED model is the better option for the better screen & larger screen & the bezel being smaller.
Not to mention the stand is much better
@@joshlonden8949 That as well but I don't know how much someone who travels a lot is going to make much use of it. I mean as someone who uses a OLED version on the go as well quite often I just keep it in handheld mode & don't use the stand at all but if someone else had something to put it on yes the stand is better.
Zack, if the company that makes that Fixture accessory made a Switch Lite Fixture, I would definitely be more interested in a Switch Lite. Just wanted to let that be known 😁
Why would you need it, the reason why Nintendo made the switch lite was so people with a 3ds would buy it simple as that
@@xargalakthe7thplanar326 Facts! It's nothing but an upgraded version of that! You can have your nostalgia whilst playing on an updated system. Almost like Ps5 vs the former Gens.
I bought the switch lite and im happy with it. I am not little child or traveler but i would just not use docking feature because I have pc and dual monitor setup and in living room I have xbox so I am happy with switch lite.
Im not sure you notice but, the switch and switch oled the joy con kinda wiggles but with the switch lite it doesn't because the joycon permenantly attach.
I have the Mario edition switch. The internal memory doesn’t warrant an upgrade IMO. I upgraded from a launch system, primarily for the battery life. I play Pokémon on a 4k TV so the lack of an oled is perfectly fine
I'm still rocking the 2017 OG Switch. I want an OLED. But money is always rough. So I know if I buy an OLED, the next updated Switch will come. I'm playing it smart and buying the pro/ last Switch model when they announce it.
same, my OG switch currently runs perfectly fine and i dont see the point of getting the switch oled because of better screen, sound and better base just because, since the pandemic i've travelled much less now days and even with travelling the switch is still pretty decent in terms of the next gen switch im just waiting for that but i dont agree with zach that the next gen switch will be out in 2023 or anytime soon.
Don't switch. Stick to one that was released in 2017. The one in 2017 is an unpatched switch the OLED one is a patched switch.
I did the opposite, I bought the OLED first which I still love using but I'm afraid of dropping it if I keep bringing it out doors and only save it for family trips. Not to long ago, I bought the Draiga Pokemon edition Switch lite used for $200 since it's the only lite that looks good and I'm not afraid of touching the screen and use it for Mario Maker 2 the most. I only hate the battery life and I really don't mind the 5.5 inches. I had phones in the past that was 4.7 inches in 2013. My point is get the version your going to use the most.. so far only the battery life is what is making me want to go back to my OLED and just play it tabletop while the lite I have it by my bed and play small portions of SNES Online. SNES games won't kill the lite battery, only hard demanding games and the UA-cam app.
Just bought my first Nintendo switch. Nice channel. I’m a real outdoor person but ran into leg injurys so went to car games now I’m just intrested in all games haha . Hope all is well
I just upgraded my Switch to an Oled after the fan in my 5 year old Switch started to make some noise. I've always been impressed with my original. Hopefully the Oled does as well
The switch in 2017 is better
I usually play on the TV so there isn't much incentive for me to get OLED for a better screen.
I got myself the OLED in August 22 and it was one of the best purchases I EVER made. I’ve been wanting to game since I was a kid but my parents would only buy my brother games/consoles and I got the dolls. I remember having a dead-ass fight with my parents when I was 17 about buying myself a DS with my own money! 😂 up until then I had only borrowed games and consoles from friends. Buying myself the switch as a 25 year old woman was such a cool feeling. I finally got to fulfill my childhood dream 🥹 I’m just in awe with the look, the feel, all the awesome functions and the games! Playing botw right now in preparation for the totk release. This will be the first Zelda game that I will play when it releases and not years later. When buying your first ever switch in 2022/23, I’d definitely say buy the OLED! for me personally it was so so so worth it
Switch lite is nice for on the go because it fits in most big pockets. Also in bed it's super light and comfy while lying down
Switch lite has actual D PAD...😮 Did not catch that after 2 years.. Oh well I got the OLED switch because of the spat 3 rad colors. Took one back for rattly joy con
I have to say, the only thing I must say about the Switch Lite is it’s a fantastic secondary switch! I wouldn’t say it’s good as a primary switch, but it’s a great secondary. I loveeee playing SNES games on my Lite, as I love having a D-pad. It’s so comfortable and it’s a great switch! I know that having an OLED and a Lite isn’t practical, but I love having both. Also the Teal color with my White OLED switch is a fire color combo
Also I have to agree, OLED is king. Pleaseeeee pick it up everyone if considering all the options!
I bought the Splatoon OLED on drop day & passed my OG 2017 Switch on to my wife. She mainly plays Animal Crossing & Pokémon while I've dabbled in a lot more games. More storage, cool design, better battery life, etc. I'm not really a screen or graphics snob, so the better screen was nice but unneeded.
However, I've noticed since we've been playing Scarlet/Violet that the old Switch will freeze sometimes & she'll have to turn the entire console completely off (which is a pain b/c the button is a bit messed up & there's no menu option for it - just sleep mode). However, I've had bo problems with freezing so far. Just the funny graphical bugs everyone else is getting, like the camera clipping through the ground.
100000%, get the OLED if you have the choice. It'll hold up much better in the long run, since it's marginally more powerful.
Just bought a lightly used Switch OLED off of Ebay for $280 (before taxes). Figured I needed one with the well anticipated drop of BOTW's sequel Tears of the Kingdom.
I own the regular switch... I mainly play docked so it's not a big deal.
I have the original switch for a few years & just got the OLED & they are awsome. I agree with what this dude said for the most part. I still have that the 1st switch & I believe that it is still worth buying if you don't have the money but if you can afford the OLED then that's the one to get.
OLED is one of those things that when you hear about it you go like: cool, but I don’t know if it’s worth the extra money. Once you get used to it though, you go like: I want every screen to be OLED. 😂
I pretty much play docked 99% of the time so... waiting for Switch 2!
My wife and kids have the original. I decided to get the OLED for myself, and I am not disappointed. I passed up the lite for the very reason that it can't dock. I like the option to play at my desk (I have a tv that's pc capable as an extra screen), the family room, or in the spare room. And I take it to work for lunch. And I didn't even rush to get it. I just put money aside weekly for it, adding to my Amazon balance. I was going to get the original, but then I said I'll just wait a week and put $50 more on it and get the latest one.
I picked up the lite due to price as well as having young nephews. I’m happy with it. The only thing I don’t like about it is that i have to play solo
if they made a lite oled (like both in one) i would 1000% get it over my oled switch
I got the Pokémon scarlet/violet oled when it dropped then bought the sword/shield switch lite from GameStop for an on the go switch. I like Pokémon if u couldn’t tell lmao
For a single person like me, and always Plays in handheld. I'm very happy I got switch lite, and I bought the new one with just around 160usd or Rp. 2.500.000 Indonesian rupiah.
Good evening Zach
Upon seeing the switch Lite Ads on facebookl i decided right
there i wanted it.. got it september 2019 - i'm fine with what i got 🙂
Currently plyaying - Pokemon Scarlet 🙂..So fun
OG switch - wasn't inrerested 🤨
Switch Oled - not interested - but the is OLED for the tv as well
the Console is just bigger than the OG console.
Damn, I came to this video late. I had originally got the lite because I didn't have an interest in playing on the tv because we shared the tv so I could still play. Now it's clumsily hit the floor a few times. Still works. Just noticed the left stick doesn't seem to like turning left for my character. When I pull up the map my cursor drifts to the right. Sometimes I do get it to stop.
All that said, I think OLED is my goal.
This guy doesn't know what he talking about all of the switch systems are amazing console. Buy whatever one fit yo budget.
The Switch Lite is the perfect system for first time users. It is completely self contained, portable, and massively cheaper than the alternatives. The smaller screen gives a sharper image that gives the OLED screens a run for their money.
What if the player just doesn't have a TV to connect to?
I just just picked up my switch oled and I was blown away it’s not just the oled display for me it’s also that it is laminated with a glass display underneath I had a problem with dust and debris getting underneath my switch v2 and it made it not enjoyable with the oled not only does it look better but with it also being laminated it will never be an issue it’s totally worth what they are asking vs the regular in my opinion
Why can’t they make a switch lite that connects to the t.v? I hate how big the original switch is. It’s uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time. Come on Nintendo… think! 😅
Thanks for the video it help me a lot.😊
BOOM BOUGHT 2 TB THANK YOU SWITCHFORCE!!!!!
I got the First Og switch when it came out 6 years ago and man my switch has not held up. My controllers are basically unusable and my switch box just randomly stopped working recently. Imma upgrade to the Switch OLED. If a new switch comes out, I’ll just give my OLED to my brother or friend.
My first console was a Switch OG . Then a little later on it broke . i went to see if it can be fixed . later someone said it would cost me more to have it fixed, that i should use the money to buy a new one . So i moved up & bought an Oled . that i plan to keep it forever !!🎮
I’ve only had the OG HAC 001 which I got for free from a friend but my kids just play on it. But I just recently bought the Splatoon 3 OLED switch new in box for $250. Hell of a deal and I’m loving it since I only play handheld. Game prices are outrageous but I already knew that going in.
Do we need to get a card if were only using cartridges?
I’m gonna get the regular OLED switch. I’d prefer the lite because I’ll mostly play handheld style but the fact it doesn’t dock and play on the tv is the dealbreaker, might as well just get the regular.
Excellent video !! Finally went for the Lexar 1 TB. It will help you too!! Take good Zach!
I feel the opposite... Why wouldn't I spend an additional 50$ for a much better product? I just bought one this Christmas (finally!!) after having the light for a few years and man I'm so happy with my purchase!
same i also got a oled for this christmas!
I loved the part where she went : It truly has been a Kitchen Nightmare
I've played every switch and currently own the oled one. It's funny but own a very good gaming pc, a ps5, and a steam deck but still have more fun with my nintendo. The oled screen is epic.
I think i should go buy the OLED, its only 290$ where im from
i just want to play all the pokemon games, so i guess the lite is a good option?
Sold my OG switch on Ebay and got the new OLED. I have not regretted that decision one bit.
Should have brought the one that was released in 2017 because the one in 2017 is an unpatched switch.
Great video and original opinions. Thanks
As an ex-owner of a 2019 Nintendo Switch, my justification for buying an OLED Switch was to give my 2019 console to a friend of mine as a gift for his two young kids. I could have bought a Lite, but I still play co-op games with my older kids on the TV, and I still have to give up said TV to the wife for her TV shows, so the OLED was the way to go. :)
I personally own all of the switches, I had the v2 of the OG switch, and gave that to my sister when I bought my OLED, and recently I bought the lite, and I like playing the lite at work, I drive for a job, so the lite is very nice to have for me, and I don’t want to bring the oled and maybe drop it or something like that
I found lite for 140$ very good deal
I am not a gamer I just like cute small games and I am very busy so small gaming dvice is perfect also I like the colors😂
ive been in this game since atari
If you haven't got one yet, then I would just wait for the new version. I guarantee that they will be making a whole new system/version.
Wait I think this guy used to do gameplay walk throughs back in the day I might be wrong but I remember watching the advanced warfare one specifically
I was playing the 3ds when the switch first game out because I had my PlayStation for home use and wanted a handhold only console on top then I bought the switch lite as soon as it came out forgoing the better looking Pokémon edition and I’ve never wanted or needed to hook it up to the tv and never had joy on drift or any issues
My friends all have switch oleds and think I should upgrade but I have a ps5 for home and my switch lite still works so why should I buy a £350 one just to use as handheld only? I like having a console to play games in bed before I go to sleep
And then the best graphics 4K+ when gaming on the tv
It’s almost jarring seeing normal HD on my tv when friends bring their switches and play it on my tv
So I can’t upgrade until it’s 4K 😝
I’ve had my Nintendo switch since I got it for my birthday 5 years ago I want to see a switch pro!!!!!!!and the games being made for it!!!!!!!!!that’s the switch I need
Oled for the screen and Lite to play downloaded games offline.
I'm just an xbox and Playstation player never had a nintendo system
The only let down are the joy cons!! To cheap!! Had to buy 3 pairs and from there get the pro controller to play!!
Don’t upgrade in buying the new OLED yet… I don’t see much of a difference. My brother has the OLED and I got the OG … and I am perfectly happy… wait for the next real upgrade. The upgrade is not really worth it
Since I had "Player 2" controllers for when I play with my nieces/nephews systems, I bought a second gen Switch tablet only for the price I would have paid for a used Switch Lite.
Getting my oled next week. Upgrading from the V2 switch
I play my switch mostly docked w the pro controller. I'm good w my og switch.
Yea the OLED is fire. Just a more modern version truly a must have.
"Good morning-"
Good night. Lol
Still have the og switch and I play it in handheld mode all the time love it still but in my opinion not worth the oled upgrade. I don’t recommend you spend 200 bucks more if you just fit the oled upgrade the original switch still looks great on handheld mode bur if you are going to get a new switch and don’t have one already yes I recommend you spend the extra 50 bucks over the original price tag and get the oled upgrade
I only use switch on the tv/monitor and my og switch is still fine. I’d pick up the og and wait for switch pro to come out in 2024 (there’s no chance it comes out in 2023)
I have a switch lite but I don’t feel good upgrading just yet I feel like something new should be coming out.
Why is NOBODY else talking about this? This is such an important matter, oh wow.
I have the regular 2017 OG switch and I’m waiting for the next gen switch to update
switch is the best traveler's handheld
not even steam deck
not even rog ally.
those things wont let you ply more than 3 hours
Unpatched switch are best. With an unpatched switch you can like Install android and install mods for super smash bros ultimate and Mario kart 8 deluxe.
finally an honest review
Bought my og switch a month after release,also bought an orzly smoke switch grip case with a free screen protector thrown in,most comfortable grip case out,and wouldn't change it,except maybe for the pro,but outdated you're so wrong dude,only difference between the oled and the original is the screen and that's it,worth ditching the original for the oled,meaning paying another 300 for the screen upgrade, you're totally loony tunes.
I have all three, out of the three that I have the OLED is my favorite lel
I’m only 8 I’ve got a oled switch I think the best are the lite and oled
I love these Nintendo Switch games!
Good morning. I could hear Nintendo switch all day from you…
Whenever I go somewhere I get carsick playing in the car and even when I am out I have a brother that always wants to play on the switch with me so lite is not my style and since I am gonna mainly play nes games in handheld mode I the Nintendo switch OG good for me
I love my Oled white system i traded my lite got 100 bucks off 😂
Ambernic is the best handheld. It plays all new PC games unlike SWITCH. Switch is only 64bit.
I knew which switch he was going to recommend today before I watched this video, I mean if you don’t have a switch why not buy the best version. It’s common sense.
Switch OLED is great but it's at the same price like steam deck 250 gigabyte
Thank you for this video, you cleared up my question that I asked last week about waiting or not for the Switch Pro. I will not upgrade until later in the winter, and it will be an OLED. Do you have a link where you get a kickback with no extra cost to us?
Actually there is a way to connect the Lite to the TV, but you have some lag. It requires a camera and some cables. Someone did a UA-cam video about this setup.
i want a steam deck so i can play the new games and im realy wanting to play re4 remake but i cant swing the cost of the deck right now but soon i hope lol
Hello! I could use some advice here! I’ve never owned a switch before, in fact the closest I’d have to it might be an iPad. However, I’ve been gaming more recently and have been considering getting a switch for some games that I just can’t get on other devices in my home. Im in high school, so I don’t have much of an income. Im trying to figure out which switch would be best for me. Im thinking on playing games along the lines of stardew valley, animal crossing, Mario kart, maybe even LOZ. Does anyone have any advice for me?
I needed this recommendation getting my 6yr twins the lite and my 10yr the OG
According to the Amazons best sellers list, somebody already told everyone about which switch to buy because they're all selling like hotcakes on there.
You can get a series s for cheaper and play all the GameCube Wii games you want and also play modern games without it looking like someone smeared Vaseline all over your screen while using p2p online from 2004
I thinking of getting rid of mine. Haven’t touched it since my steam deck arrived
if you watch at 1.5x speed he sounds like he's speaking normally
I had the og switch but I'm upgrading to the OLED Switch for my bday Christmas gift the og switch just had to many issues with drifting on the joy con
$50 more might not seem big but as person that lives in Canada the price is is expensive sorry to say I bought the switch lite since is was cheaper than as a Christmas gift i got a switch og sorry translate the prices in to Canada and the taxes plus fee are outrageous compared to USA and Japan sorry to say
Agreed Canadians getting ripped off :(
The lite is a great console. Both my kids and my husband each have a lite. They are really nice. I got the full console - only because it was $250 and it didn't make sense to save $50 to go for a lite over the Animal Crossing console.
I like the lite better then the original lol I had the original switch but downgraded because I like the lite better I never took the joycons out and the lite feels better in my hand
Bro you should get more sleep. You're hurting your eyes. Coffee helps but your eyes slowing clear signs of fatigue.
As you're getting older you have to look after yourself more. All the best!
This didnt age well for the switch pro comment lol
My 1tb SD card is almost full and I'm a physical person. It won't hold all you need.
