The video can be found embedded below.
It's hard to say whether existing Switch owners will find the upgrade necessary, but for those that don't already own the console, this looks like the one to get. The colors really pop on the OLED model, offering a much brighter option than the base model. The difference from the standard 6.2-inch screen to the 7-inch one might not sound like a big increase, but its quite noticeable from the video. Everything just looks much bigger and bolder.
The video does contain one interesting detail that Nintendo has not mentioned about the Nintendo Switch OLED. Specifically, a change has been made to the back of the dock. The current model of the dock has a hinge that allows access to the ports for the AC Adapter and HDMI Out. The new model drops the hinge in favor of a removable piece. From a personal standpoint, I've always found the hinge a bit cumbersome when trying to plug things in, so its removal is a welcome change.
The Nintendo Switch OLED won't launch until October 8th, so fans have a little bit longer to decide if they want to drop the money for it. The cost of the upgrade won't appeal to all Nintendo fans, but now that we're seeing more of the system in hand, it's getting a little bit easier to start making decisions.
