Any decent glass screen protectors for the OLED yet? I saw a YouTube video saying the current Switch ones won’t fit.

I got some off rainforest today, not sure quality yet but should be fine

Did the same, came as a 4 pack which is way more than I need and even has an aliment tool which will be handy, quality on them doesn't look bad at all.

The OLED screen with a proper glass front makes a hell of a difference. Not the best images for comparison but still a night and day difference.

Took the screenshots from here.

Aye those are same as what I got, now just waiting on switch and bunch of games to arrive, if I knew Xenoblades 2 would go up this much in price I'd of kept my old copy years ago lol

Also interested see how this OLED stacks up against my CX OLED

Confession, Super Metroid was one of my all time favourite snes memories but having recently played it on the Switch it hasn't aged very well at all

I played it earlier this year and thought it was amazing

Hadn't played it since probably the early 2000s on an emulator.

Nice game comparison between the LCD and OLED version.

Tear down video. They didn’t get past the Heatsink on the Switch though.

Ordered the white oled model from Nintendo this morning, roll on friday

And a set of Orzly glass screen protectors from the rainforest as well, got the same brand on my original switch never had any issues with that brand at all.

Cheers all

Good recommendation on the screen protector. Looks like they come in a pack of 4 which is a little excessive. I’ll likely go for those though if there isn’t anything else

Best screen protector out of all of them. I've had my Orzly on for over 4 years and it has been perfect over 1,000+ hours.

Great. Well it will last me at least 16 years with 4 of them then

I’ll get them ordered ready for when my OLED arrives next week

I need a 4 pack as that's how many goes it takes before I'm happy with an application. One bit of dust and it's off.

Funny thing is only perfect one I've ever applied was my 1st gen switch one, still looks perfect to this day

Wonder if burn in will be a problem

It will be long term, it’s unavoidable with OLED. We’r talking many years though.

Thinking about upgrading my OG Switch to an OLED, but need to justify myself.
Hmm, with my luck they'll then announce the 4K one.

If it's unpatched model it should sell for decent amount

Unpatched? As in older firmware for emulation?
I think the firmware has been updated as normal.

No the early consoles RCM could be exploited at hardware level regardless of firmware

It doesn't matter, the first generation cannot be patched to prevent arbitrary code execution.

Interesting... How do I find this out? I say OG, but I bought it on the MM here a few years in to the lifecycle.
