People are so conditioned by the hype behind OLED that they immediately write off LCD screens. OLED technology is great, but if you're gaming in a surrounding with a lot of sunlight or bright lights - LCDs offer an overall brightness that can't be beat. Also you don't have to worry about burn-in.
Yeah I think people automatically assume LCD is bad but there are a wide range of LCD panel qualities. Some are terrible like the original Switch & Steamdeck but some look amazing. Mini Led LCD technology with local dimming is better than OLED in some aspects such as brightness and is much cheaper.
Oh theres no doubt tech has developed enough that they could make an lcd better than the switch OLED panel,but could they have instead used an even better OLED and surpassed this LCD?
There are definitely good and bad LCD screens. I've seen mini-LEDs are that are gorgeous, without the downsides of burn in risk, etc, of OLED. That said, I don't know if I trust Nintendo to spend enough for a truly good LCD tech. I guess we'll see, I hope the early good reports aren't just copium.
Thats cool but compare it to an OLED switch because some of us JUST spent $350 in the past year or two and have a hard time justifying this massive purchase if it’s a “downgrade” from what the original switch upgrade offers.
