Is the OLED model worth it? Just how different is it to the original Nintendo Switch?<\/p>\n<p>Luckily for you, we\u2019re here to solve those questions\u2026 with math. And graphs. Math and graphs. Graphs and math. HERE WE GO.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Specs_battle_Nintendo_Switch_vs_OLED_model\"><\/span>Specs battle: Nintendo Switch vs. OLED model<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s get the most obvious improvement out the way first: the screen. Let\u2019s have a look at the different sizes:<\/p>\n<p>Nothing too odd here. The Nintendo Switch has a <strong>6.2-inch LCD<\/strong>, while the OLED model has a <strong>7-inch, uh, OLED screen<\/strong>. This is a <strong>12.9% increase<\/strong> in the diagonal screen size between the two models.<\/p>\n<p>But what about the\u00a0screen area? Well, the OG Nintendo with the 6.2-inch has a display area of <strong>1<\/strong><strong><span class=\"CalculatorRow__read-only-value\">06<\/span>cm\u00b2<\/strong>. The 7-inch OLED screen clocks in at <strong>136cm\u00b2<\/strong>. That then, is a\u00a0<strong>27.3% increase\u00a0<\/strong>in the display area between the two models. Which is quite a lot tbh.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution of both displays on the console has stayed the same though:\u00a01280 x 720. Or 720p. This means that while the OLED model will have\u00a0better contrast, higher brightness, and a wider color range, it\u00a0<em>won\u2019t<\/em> have more detail than the original Switch.<\/p>\n<p>Which is a crying shame.<\/p>\n<p>But let\u2019s look at something else in the\u00a0Nintendo Switch vs. OLED model fight. Specifically,\u00a0<em>weight:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the OLED model is\u00a0<strong>23 grams heavier<\/strong> than the original Nintendo Switch. That\u2019s roughly the same weight as an AA battery, or <strong>a\u00a07.7% weight increase<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s where we bump into something strange.<\/p>\n<p>Both the original Switch and OLED model have the same CPU\/GPU (a NVIDIA customised Tegra processor)\u00a0<em>and<\/em> the same capacity battery (<strong>4,310mAh<\/strong>). This suggests that most of that extra weight is down to the screen.<\/p>\n<p>While we\u2019re doing a\u00a0Nintendo Switch vs. OLED model battle, we can also <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roximate the volumes of each device. The regular Switch clocks in at\u00a0<strong>338cm\u00b3<\/strong>, while the OLED model has a volume of <strong>343cm\u00b3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a <strong>1.3% increase in volume<\/strong> between the models. Not a huge amount, but enough that some of Nintendo\u2019s LABO hardware may not fit as snugly as users like.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s finish this comparison of the\u00a0Nintendo Switch and OLED model with a final graph. This one is looking at the system memory of both models:<\/p>\n<p>Woo! Look at that! An honest-to-god improvement! A <strong>100% increase<\/strong> from the original Switch to the OLED model!<\/p>\n<p>Even though, I\u2019d say the average size of a AAA <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> is around 10GB \u2014 meaning you can only get around 6 of them on the new OLED model. Still, that\u2019s better than a kick in the teeth.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Methodology\"><\/span>Methodology<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>All the data in this article was <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendo.co.uk\/Nintendo-Switch-Family\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model--2000984.html\">pulled from Nintendo\u2019s official site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-featured_img wp-image-1359636 js-lazy\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch OLED model\" width=\"796\" height=\"448\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-796x448.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-796x448.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-280x158.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-240x135.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-1592x896.jpg 1592w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-1200x675.jpg 1200w\"\/><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/news\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.thenextweb.com%2Fplugged%2F2021%2F07%2F07%2Fog-nintendo-switch-vs-the-oled-model-math-and-graphs%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: Also, here\u2019s a picture of the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) because you\u2019ve been so lovely.\" data-title=\"Share Also, here\u2019s a picture of the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) because you\u2019ve been so lovely. on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share Also, here\u2019s a picture of the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) because you\u2019ve been so lovely. on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"\/><\/a>Also, here\u2019s a picture of the Nintendo Switch (OLED model) because you\u2019ve been so lovely.<\/figcaption><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-featured_img wp-image-1359636\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-796x448.jpg\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch OLED model\" width=\"796\" height=\"448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-796x448.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-280x158.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-240x135.jpg 240w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-1592x896.jpg 1592w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/07\/Nintendo-Switch-OLED-model-1200x675.jpg 1200w\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_have_we_learned_in_the_Nintendo_Switch_vs_OLED_model_battle\"><\/span>What have we learned in the\u00a0Nintendo Switch vs. OLED model battle?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The most important element is this: the OLED model is not a Pro Switch. Not even close. It\u2019s barely an upgrade from the original console, with only the screen being a substantial departure.<\/p>\n<p>While the increased internal storage of the OLED model is a positive step, it feels strange that Nintendo hasn\u2019t even increased the battery size or allowed for 4K output while docked.<\/p>\n<p>I understand that it\u2019s probably holding back some of these features for the Pro, but it would\u2019ve been nice to see a Nintendo Switch V2. Instead, it feels the OLED model is a V1.1 \u2014 which is a bit of a shame considering the console is now 4 years old.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, math and graphs, you\u2019ve made me sad.<\/p>\n<p><i>Did you know we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter all about consumer tech?
