1 00:00:00,170 --> 00:00:01,570 - [Anthony] Nintendo Switch. 2 00:00:03,870 --> 00:00:07,030 Oh man, I've been waiting for this for a long time. 3 00:00:07,030 --> 00:00:12,030 I had, one of these guys, a regular Nintendo Switch, 4 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,043 but I ended up giving it away to a friend who lost theirs. 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,490 So long story short I'm Switchless right now. And I've been kind of waiting for one of these to come out 6 00:00:22,490 --> 00:00:26,290 in order to, well, get a new Switch. 7 00:00:26,290 --> 00:00:32,960 Unfortunately it doesn't have quite the upgrades that I was hoping for, but it does report to be, OLED, 8 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:39,270 check out this bezel. It's like, hang on, press the home button three times. 9 00:00:39,270 --> 00:00:45,100 Yep, that's oh, you can't, yeah, yeah. Well, you can kind of see it there that's a thick bezel 10 00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:49,360 like that reminds me of the Blackberry Playbook. In fact, that's kind of what I felt 11 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:54,100 with the Nintendo Switch when it first launched, like, it looks like a really low end Android tablet 12 00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:59,810 or like knock-off tablet, but obviously the switch has a bunch of party tricks. 13 00:00:59,810 --> 00:01:04,810 Like it's kickstand here and your Joy-Cons here. 14 00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:10,190 So you can basically take it anywhere you wanna go and play whatever you wanna play. 15 00:01:10,190 --> 00:01:15,530 I mean, personally, aside from Nintendo's first party titles, 16 00:01:15,530 --> 00:01:20,660 there's not a whole lot that I would play on Switch versus any other console or platform for that matter, 17 00:01:20,660 --> 00:01:24,430 like PC, but it being portable is a huge bonus. 18 00:01:24,430 --> 00:01:27,780 And we have the Switch Lite here as well. 19 00:01:27,780 --> 00:01:33,570 That's something that I've kind of, sort of wanted to look into getting, 20 00:01:33,570 --> 00:01:38,410 cause they're a little bit cheaper, but I mean, 21 00:01:38,410 --> 00:01:42,890 I don't really like that you can't put it into like kickstand mode, 22 00:01:42,890 --> 00:01:45,980 you can't take the Joy-Cons off, it's all integrated. 23 00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:50,120 Well, let's get into the box and see if there's anything immediately obvious 24 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,983 that makes this more of a cohesive experience. 25 00:01:55,500 --> 00:01:58,760 Oh, these are not white. 26 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,853 Well, they are, but they are rather special. 27 00:02:03,998 --> 00:02:07,910 Oh man I love that aesthetic, this is my favorite dbrand skin. 28 00:02:07,910 --> 00:02:14,060 Like hands down. The only reason I didn't for my phone here 29 00:02:14,060 --> 00:02:18,800 is because I just wanted something that would immediately identify it as mine, 30 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,660 because there are other people in the office with such cases. 31 00:02:22,660 --> 00:02:27,880 Yeah and even on the back here, they have the, where the battery goes, nice. 32 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,140 So I take it, this is sponsored by dbrand, we'll get into that later. 33 00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:35,700 I'm not entirely sure what's involved with that, but okay. 34 00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:40,440 Here's the Joy-Cons, here's the Nintendo Switch OLED. 35 00:02:41,770 --> 00:02:44,800 Oh, I'm disappointed. There's nothing on the back of the Switch. 36 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:50,130 I guess the robots have failed us. We'll get into the Switch itself in a moment. 37 00:02:50,130 --> 00:02:53,713 I was going to say that I was really happy about all the cardboard, but, 38 00:02:56,290 --> 00:02:57,990 everything's individually wrapped. 39 00:02:59,490 --> 00:03:02,900 Okay, oh, oh, that's interesting. 40 00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:06,980 The back of the Nintendo Switch dock is significantly changed. 41 00:03:06,980 --> 00:03:11,651 Now we have this little cutout here, which I'm pretty sure didn't exist in the previous model. 42 00:03:11,651 --> 00:03:16,160 Open this up, it's not on a straight hinge. It just comes off, 43 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:21,160 and we've got AC adapter, HDMI out and LAN, built in LAN. 44 00:03:22,590 --> 00:03:28,870 That is an excellent addition. Before you had to go out and buy a USB network adapter 45 00:03:28,870 --> 00:03:31,940 and just kind of hope that it was compatible with the Switch. 46 00:03:31,940 --> 00:03:38,050 It wasn't a great experience and Wi-Fi isn't a great experience for online play. 47 00:03:38,050 --> 00:03:41,500 All right, so to compare, this is the new one, 48 00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:46,500 and okay so there was a little cutout here, but it was very angular and not nearly as, 49 00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:48,893 as wide as the new one. 50 00:03:50,580 --> 00:03:54,010 And again, this just kind of hinges and yeah. 51 00:03:54,010 --> 00:03:58,090 So we've got AC adapter, a USB port, and HDMI out. 52 00:03:58,090 --> 00:04:02,250 Oh, that is a nice looking screen. Even when it's blank, check this out. 53 00:04:02,250 --> 00:04:06,300 It's like, is that a little, yeah, it's a little blacker 'cause you can see the, 54 00:04:07,370 --> 00:04:11,770 where the LCD is versus the bezels on the standard Switch. 55 00:04:11,770 --> 00:04:15,790 But it's much tougher to see that on the Switch OLED. 56 00:04:15,790 --> 00:04:20,674 It's very similar in thickness. However, one thing that is not similar 57 00:04:20,674 --> 00:04:24,550 is this beefy boy kickstand, 58 00:04:24,550 --> 00:04:29,530 you can actually put this at multiple different angles, they actually got a very good kickstand going here. 59 00:04:29,530 --> 00:04:34,530 This is like next level, I like it, it's thin, 60 00:04:34,930 --> 00:04:38,810 but it does feel like it's like got purpose, you know, 61 00:04:38,810 --> 00:04:42,770 whereas this kickstand it's plastic and is it? 62 00:04:42,770 --> 00:04:46,960 Yeah, it is definitely plastic. And every time I opened this kickstand, 63 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:52,270 I feel like something is going to break. What I can do with this new stand is angle it 64 00:04:52,270 --> 00:04:56,870 such that not only can you see, oh, hi, 65 00:04:56,870 --> 00:05:02,570 not only can you see, but I can see too. That is something that you just cannot do 66 00:05:02,570 --> 00:05:06,133 with this old kickstand. Like we're just right there, yep. 67 00:05:07,930 --> 00:05:14,150 That's the best you get. I'm honestly surprised that we put up with the old design. 68 00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:19,340 But it was such a novel concept. The Switch console itself that I guess we just didn't care. 69 00:05:19,340 --> 00:05:22,599 I wanna see what the screen looks like. Do you want to see what the screen looks like? 70 00:05:22,599 --> 00:05:27,070 - [Man] Hell Yeah. - Yeah, let's see what the screen looks like after I talk to you about our sponsor dbrand, 71 00:05:27,070 --> 00:05:29,453 dbrand has something special for us. 72 00:05:30,380 --> 00:05:35,380 It appears that dbrand has a glass screen protector 73 00:05:36,470 --> 00:05:44,420 for the brand new Switch OLED. And they have requested that not only I install this, 74 00:05:44,450 --> 00:05:49,700 but that I test it. (drill motor revving) I am gonna be so happy if I break this, 75 00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:53,090 let's see if I can align this. 76 00:05:53,090 --> 00:05:56,637 Oh, this is not good at all. Am I doing this right. 77 00:05:56,637 --> 00:06:01,030 - [Andy] Probably not. - [Phone Speaking] Note that your tempered glass comes with two pieces, 78 00:06:01,030 --> 00:06:06,620 just in case you (beep) on your first try. (multiple people laughing) 79 00:06:06,620 --> 00:06:10,733 - [Anthony] All right, it's not perfect. It's got some stuff under it. Oh, I don't like this. 80 00:06:11,674 --> 00:06:15,620 (drill motor revving) 81 00:06:15,620 --> 00:06:20,630 So there's some kind of something on there, but, it just swiped off, interesting. 82 00:06:20,630 --> 00:06:24,691 All right, let's try more pressure. (drill motor revving) 83 00:06:24,691 --> 00:06:29,240 All right, I'm putting decent pressure on it right now. I should be going through the table if I was drilling into the wood. 84 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,626 Yeah, there's nothing, more pressure. (drill motor revving) 85 00:06:32,626 --> 00:06:37,840 Honestly I like with the pressure I was putting on it. I was more worried that I would like start 86 00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:40,840 to put more pressure on the OLED than the OLED could take. 87 00:06:40,840 --> 00:06:47,700 But like, not only did it not go through, like, don't worry too much about the bubbles, 88 00:06:47,700 --> 00:06:51,060 but there's no scratches, dbrand glass works. 89 00:06:51,060 --> 00:06:55,070 Get yours at the link below. We should talk about what the screen is covered with. 90 00:06:55,070 --> 00:06:58,580 So the screen is actually made of glass this time around 91 00:06:58,580 --> 00:07:02,020 and there's this nice. I'm not sure if the bezel itself has glass too, 92 00:07:02,020 --> 00:07:08,460 but it kind of wraps around, it's more gentle curve than the Switch, 93 00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:12,250 or at least that's what it feels like to my fingers. Maybe it's just that it's smoother. 94 00:07:12,250 --> 00:07:16,830 But there is a screen protector on this, 95 00:07:16,830 --> 00:07:20,690 which you do not want to take off. It's there so that when the screen breaks, 96 00:07:20,690 --> 00:07:24,793 if the screen breaks, it doesn't just go everywhere. 97 00:07:25,970 --> 00:07:30,200 It is not shatter resistant glass. So that's there to catch it. 98 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,460 You don't want to take that off if you drop your Switch and you don't have that on it, 99 00:07:34,460 --> 00:07:40,273 that glass is gonna go everywhere. So keep it on there, just enjoy, enjoy it, 100 00:07:41,350 --> 00:07:44,910 it doesn't feel like actually there's anything on there. 101 00:07:44,910 --> 00:07:49,440 So they did a pretty good job with that. Switch, that's bright. 102 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:55,290 Ooh, whoa, wow, the colors are popping. Wow, check out the, I don't know if you can see, 103 00:07:55,290 --> 00:08:00,100 the brightness is super high and the saturation of the colors. 104 00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:04,770 It may be oversaturated, actually, it's not even really a contest actually, 105 00:08:04,770 --> 00:08:09,280 let me quickly put this in or put this in dark mode, cause that's more appropriate for an OLED anyway. 106 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,820 That is pretty good. And also the screen is bigger because despite the fact 107 00:08:13,820 --> 00:08:18,820 that the consoles are the same size, the bezels have been trunk dramatically. 108 00:08:18,820 --> 00:08:24,270 This is without a doubt, the way that I would want to experience the switch like, 109 00:08:24,270 --> 00:08:27,320 this console, I was never really happy with, 110 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,900 and there was a reason why I was okay with giving it away. 111 00:08:30,900 --> 00:08:34,290 This I would not give away. Like if I were to launch, 112 00:08:34,290 --> 00:08:37,670 let's just launch Breath of the Wild on both of these real quick. 113 00:08:37,670 --> 00:08:41,760 The blacks here don't really look all that black, 114 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:48,740 they look gray. Here the dynamic range is so much nicer. 115 00:08:48,740 --> 00:08:51,880 So like, yeah, it's not showing the same screen, 116 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:56,800 which is kind of frustrating, but like you can see just how more, 117 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,170 how much more vibrant this is like that energy arrow, 118 00:09:00,170 --> 00:09:03,240 that Lincoln shooting there. I haven't actually played Breath of the Wild. 119 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,240 I'm ashamed to admit, it looks like it's glowing. 120 00:09:08,820 --> 00:09:12,835 Whereas here this little impact here doesn't really look like much is happening. 121 00:09:12,835 --> 00:09:16,500 It doesn't show up on the camera. I can see what the camera is seeing. 122 00:09:17,460 --> 00:09:21,230 The vibrancy of the colors is not showing up nearly as well 123 00:09:21,230 --> 00:09:24,230 as I can see in person, that is staggering. 124 00:09:24,230 --> 00:09:27,510 But yeah, even just like the Switch online logo, 125 00:09:27,510 --> 00:09:32,653 you can see it, it's red, the Metroid Dread logo, it's red. 126 00:09:34,450 --> 00:09:39,580 This looks muted by comparison, all the colors. Well, it looks kind of like the difference between vibrant 127 00:09:39,580 --> 00:09:44,580 and SRGB for a monitor or TV, which might strike you as, 128 00:09:46,350 --> 00:09:50,200 not necessarily what you want. You can see so much more of the screen, 129 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,140 like it's a seven 720p screen, yes. So you're gonna see pixels, 130 00:09:54,140 --> 00:09:59,140 but honestly, not really like this screen, it looks fine. 131 00:10:00,060 --> 00:10:03,090 This screen, yeah. 132 00:10:03,090 --> 00:10:07,823 Small, medium, large, except not actually larger, 133 00:10:07,823 --> 00:10:14,190 just the screen is larger. So this is 0.881 pounds, which is 14.1 ounces 134 00:10:14,190 --> 00:10:18,810 or 400 grams exactly, 424 grams. 135 00:10:18,810 --> 00:10:23,290 So yeah, it's not that much heavier. Now, it is disappointing that Nintendo 136 00:10:23,290 --> 00:10:26,740 didn't upgrade the SOC or, give us DLSS 137 00:10:26,740 --> 00:10:31,690 when we're docked or anything like that. But at this point, that's the kind of thing 138 00:10:31,690 --> 00:10:37,370 that'll happen with a new console, I think. This is actually a game that I would buy a Switch for. 139 00:10:37,370 --> 00:10:40,470 (dramatic music) 140 00:10:40,470 --> 00:10:43,220 Okay, that sounds pretty good. The stereo engine is pretty good. 141 00:10:44,890 --> 00:10:50,280 Not a whole lot of bass to it. I don't have a whole lot of reference 142 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:57,035 for how the original Switch sounded. - [Phone Speaking] Cling to certain walls and ceilings, 143 00:10:57,035 --> 00:11:02,035 its automated (dramatic music) 144 00:11:03,170 --> 00:11:06,600 - It is richer, it's also a little bit louder I think. Hey, Linus is here. 145 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,277 You wanna take a look at these? Yeah. You wanna take, you want to take a look? 146 00:11:10,277 --> 00:11:14,320 - Yeah, I want to see I'm a mostly handheld guy. Can I just throw these on? 147 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,380 I just forgot to, wanna experience it here. 148 00:11:17,380 --> 00:11:20,530 I actually bought one already, I pre-ordered. 149 00:11:20,530 --> 00:11:26,200 I know, I know, I say don't pre-order and then I pre-ordered, but literally the only real complaint 150 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:31,160 that I had about the Switch, because I don't care about the performance from a performance side game on a PC. 151 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,640 Literally the only thing I cared about, they fixed it, man. 152 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,207 The bigger size freaking awesome. - [Anthony] Yeah its amazing, 153 00:11:38,207 --> 00:11:41,920 the bezels on the old one look like a Blackberry playbook. This is amazing. 154 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,930 - Okay, all right. I am still okay with my pre-order. 155 00:11:45,930 --> 00:11:52,460 Hey, I love that the best game for this console is still the one that launched, goodbye air gap. 156 00:11:52,460 --> 00:11:56,870 An air gap is a big deal, you might feel like, oh, Linus your just like fussing about a stupid little thing 157 00:11:56,870 --> 00:12:04,110 that doesn't matter, but it does multiple things. One, is it makes it so that your off-axis viewing experience 158 00:12:04,130 --> 00:12:08,170 is not nearly as good, which, okay, sure, yeah, fine, most of the time, it doesn't matter. 159 00:12:08,170 --> 00:12:12,050 But when you're say, sitting on a plane playing Mario Party 160 00:12:12,050 --> 00:12:15,650 or something like that, it actually matters quite a lot. 161 00:12:15,650 --> 00:12:18,523 And the other thing is that it reduces clarity. 162 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,412 So this is just better. Okay, no, I'm done, I'm getting out of the way. 163 00:12:23,412 --> 00:12:27,580 Sorry, carry on, have fun - [Anthony] See you a letter. So yeah, you can definitely make out the pixels, 164 00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:31,510 especially here with the kind of haloing around link 165 00:12:31,510 --> 00:12:36,553 in the shadow of the clouds. It is very much more noticeable, 166 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:41,616 but that doesn't mean it doesn't look good. 167 00:12:41,616 --> 00:12:44,930 (tab scraping) Oh yeah, every time. 168 00:12:44,930 --> 00:12:46,973 In this, you can feel it scraping, 169 00:12:49,410 --> 00:12:54,410 here, it's way less of a concern. 170 00:12:54,650 --> 00:12:58,920 My goal isn't to review any games, so I guess I don't really need to play any more games 171 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,900 to get across the differences that we've seen here. 172 00:13:02,900 --> 00:13:07,030 The dock is significantly upgraded actually when you think about it, 173 00:13:07,030 --> 00:13:10,250 you don't have to go out and buy a new LAN adapter, 174 00:13:10,250 --> 00:13:15,250 the Switch itself, beautiful display, better speakers, 175 00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:21,380 way, way better kickstand, that can go to any angle. 176 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:28,870 It's just, it's just better. Now this screen might not be as long lived as an LCD, 177 00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:32,770 particularly if you're able to replace the backlight and the LCD that's failing. 178 00:13:32,770 --> 00:13:36,480 But I mean, how long are you gonna think, 179 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,010 that's really far out. All right, Switch OLED model $ 349 US. 180 00:13:41,010 --> 00:13:45,810 Okay, and I think these regular switches $299. Am I not, am I correct? 181 00:13:45,810 --> 00:13:49,590 Actually, yeah. For 50 bucks in the difference, I would totally do it. 182 00:13:49,590 --> 00:13:53,260 If you don't have a Switch already, if you do have a Switch, now, 183 00:13:53,260 --> 00:13:58,860 it really depends on your priorities. If you just wanna play the games, then there's no reason to pick up the Switch OLED. 184 00:13:58,860 --> 00:14:03,763 Especially if you play mostly in docked mode, but if you play in portable mode a lot, 185 00:14:04,830 --> 00:14:08,240 this I think is the definitive experience. 186 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:14,880 And I think it's worth paying the extra 50 bucks for. So yeah, if you wanna see more unboxings 187 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,070 and first impressions like this one, get subscribed because there's plenty more 188 00:14:19,070 --> 00:14:20,120 where this came from. 189 00:14:22,099 --> 00:14:25,500 (glass breaks) Oh yeah, that's tempered glass.
