WEBVTT 00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:01.570 - [Anthony] Nintendo Switch. 00:00:03.870 --> 00:00:07.030 Oh man, I've been waiting for this for a long time. 00:00:07.030 --> 00:00:12.030 I had, one of these guys, a regular Nintendo Switch, 00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:16.043 but I ended up giving it away to a friend who lost theirs. 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 00:00:22.490 --> 00:00:26.290 in order to, well, get a new Switch. 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, 00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:39.270 check out this bezel. It's like, hang on, press the home button three times. 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 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 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 00:00:54.100 --> 00:00:59.810 or like knock-off tablet, but obviously the switch has a bunch of party tricks. 00:00:59.810 --> 00:01:04.810 Like it's kickstand here and your Joy-Cons here. 00:01:05.030 --> 00:01:10.190 So you can basically take it anywhere you wanna go and play whatever you wanna play. 00:01:10.190 --> 00:01:15.530 I mean, personally, aside from Nintendo's first party titles, 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, 00:01:20.660 --> 00:01:24.430 like PC, but it being portable is a huge bonus. 00:01:24.430 --> 00:01:27.780 And we have the Switch Lite here as well. 00:01:27.780 --> 00:01:33.570 That's something that I've kind of, sort of wanted to look into getting, 00:01:33.570 --> 00:01:38.410 cause they're a little bit cheaper, but I mean, 00:01:38.410 --> 00:01:42.890 I don't really like that you can't put it into like kickstand mode, 00:01:42.890 --> 00:01:45.980 you can't take the Joy-Cons off, it's all integrated. 00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:50.120 Well, let's get into the box and see if there's anything immediately obvious 00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:53.983 that makes this more of a cohesive experience. 00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:58.760 Oh, these are not white. 00:01:58.760 --> 00:02:02.853 Well, they are, but they are rather special. 00:02:03.998 --> 00:02:07.910 Oh man I love that aesthetic, this is my favorite dbrand skin. 00:02:07.910 --> 00:02:14.060 Like hands down. The only reason I didn't for my phone here 00:02:14.060 --> 00:02:18.800 is because I just wanted something that would immediately identify it as mine, 00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:22.660 because there are other people in the office with such cases. 00:02:22.660 --> 00:02:27.880 Yeah and even on the back here, they have the, where the battery goes, nice. 00:02:27.880 --> 00:02:31.140 So I take it, this is sponsored by dbrand, we'll get into that later. 00:02:31.140 --> 00:02:35.700 I'm not entirely sure what's involved with that, but okay. 00:02:35.700 --> 00:02:40.440 Here's the Joy-Cons, here's the Nintendo Switch OLED. 00:02:41.770 --> 00:02:44.800 Oh, I'm disappointed. There's nothing on the back of the Switch. 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. 00:02:50.130 --> 00:02:53.713 I was going to say that I was really happy about all the cardboard, but, 00:02:56.290 --> 00:02:57.990 everything's individually wrapped. 00:02:59.490 --> 00:03:02.900 Okay, oh, oh, that's interesting. 00:03:02.900 --> 00:03:06.980 The back of the Nintendo Switch dock is significantly changed. 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. 00:03:11.651 --> 00:03:16.160 Open this up, it's not on a straight hinge. It just comes off, 00:03:16.160 --> 00:03:21.160 and we've got AC adapter, HDMI out and LAN, built in LAN. 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 00:03:28.870 --> 00:03:31.940 and just kind of hope that it was compatible with the Switch. 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. 00:03:38.050 --> 00:03:41.500 All right, so to compare, this is the new one, 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, 00:03:46.500 --> 00:03:48.893 as wide as the new one. 00:03:50.580 --> 00:03:54.010 And again, this just kind of hinges and yeah. 00:03:54.010 --> 00:03:58.090 So we've got AC adapter, a USB port, and HDMI out. 00:03:58.090 --> 00:04:02.250 Oh, that is a nice looking screen. Even when it's blank, check this out. 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, 00:04:07.370 --> 00:04:11.770 where the LCD is versus the bezels on the standard Switch. 00:04:11.770 --> 00:04:15.790 But it's much tougher to see that on the Switch OLED. 00:04:15.790 --> 00:04:20.674 It's very similar in thickness. However, one thing that is not similar 00:04:20.674 --> 00:04:24.550 is this beefy boy kickstand, 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. 00:04:29.530 --> 00:04:34.530 This is like next level, I like it, it's thin, 00:04:34.930 --> 00:04:38.810 but it does feel like it's like got purpose, you know, 00:04:38.810 --> 00:04:42.770 whereas this kickstand it's plastic and is it? 00:04:42.770 --> 00:04:46.960 Yeah, it is definitely plastic. And every time I opened this kickstand, 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 00:04:52.270 --> 00:04:56.870 such that not only can you see, oh, hi, 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 00:05:02.570 --> 00:05:06.133 with this old kickstand. Like we're just right there, yep. 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. 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. 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? 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, 00:05:27.070 --> 00:05:29.453 dbrand has something special for us. 00:05:30.380 --> 00:05:35.380 It appears that dbrand has a glass screen protector 00:05:36.470 --> 00:05:44.420 for the brand new Switch OLED. And they have requested that not only I install this, 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, 00:05:49.700 --> 00:05:53.090 let's see if I can align this. 00:05:53.090 --> 00:05:56.637 Oh, this is not good at all. Am I doing this right. 00:05:56.637 --> 00:06:01.030 - [Andy] Probably not. - [Phone Speaking] Note that your tempered glass comes with two pieces, 00:06:01.030 --> 00:06:06.620 just in case you (beep) on your first try. (multiple people laughing) 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. 00:06:11.674 --> 00:06:15.620 (drill motor revving) 00:06:15.620 --> 00:06:20.630 So there's some kind of something on there, but, it just swiped off, interesting. 00:06:20.630 --> 00:06:24.691 All right, let's try more pressure. (drill motor revving) 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. 00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:32.626 Yeah, there's nothing, more pressure. (drill motor revving) 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 00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:40.840 to put more pressure on the OLED than the OLED could take. 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, 00:06:47.700 --> 00:06:51.060 but there's no scratches, dbrand glass works. 00:06:51.060 --> 00:06:55.070 Get yours at the link below. We should talk about what the screen is covered with. 00:06:55.070 --> 00:06:58.580 So the screen is actually made of glass this time around 00:06:58.580 --> 00:07:02.020 and there's this nice. I'm not sure if the bezel itself has glass too, 00:07:02.020 --> 00:07:08.460 but it kind of wraps around, it's more gentle curve than the Switch, 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. 00:07:12.250 --> 00:07:16.830 But there is a screen protector on this, 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, 00:07:20.690 --> 00:07:24.793 if the screen breaks, it doesn't just go everywhere. 00:07:25.970 --> 00:07:30.200 It is not shatter resistant glass. So that's there to catch it. 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, 00:07:34.460 --> 00:07:40.273 that glass is gonna go everywhere. So keep it on there, just enjoy, enjoy it, 00:07:41.350 --> 00:07:44.910 it doesn't feel like actually there's anything on there. 00:07:44.910 --> 00:07:49.440 So they did a pretty good job with that. Switch, that's bright. 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, 00:07:55.290 --> 00:08:00.100 the brightness is super high and the saturation of the colors. 00:08:00.100 --> 00:08:04.770 It may be oversaturated, actually, it's not even really a contest actually, 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. 00:08:09.280 --> 00:08:13.820 That is pretty good. And also the screen is bigger because despite the fact 00:08:13.820 --> 00:08:18.820 that the consoles are the same size, the bezels have been trunk dramatically. 00:08:18.820 --> 00:08:24.270 This is without a doubt, the way that I would want to experience the switch like, 00:08:24.270 --> 00:08:27.320 this console, I was never really happy with, 00:08:27.320 --> 00:08:30.900 and there was a reason why I was okay with giving it away. 00:08:30.900 --> 00:08:34.290 This I would not give away. Like if I were to launch, 00:08:34.290 --> 00:08:37.670 let's just launch Breath of the Wild on both of these real quick. 00:08:37.670 --> 00:08:41.760 The blacks here don't really look all that black, 00:08:41.760 --> 00:08:48.740 they look gray. Here the dynamic range is so much nicer. 00:08:48.740 --> 00:08:51.880 So like, yeah, it's not showing the same screen, 00:08:51.880 --> 00:08:56.800 which is kind of frustrating, but like you can see just how more, 00:08:56.800 --> 00:09:00.170 how much more vibrant this is like that energy arrow, 00:09:00.170 --> 00:09:03.240 that Lincoln shooting there. I haven't actually played Breath of the Wild. 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:08.240 I'm ashamed to admit, it looks like it's glowing. 00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:12.835 Whereas here this little impact here doesn't really look like much is happening. 00:09:12.835 --> 00:09:16.500 It doesn't show up on the camera. I can see what the camera is seeing. 00:09:17.460 --> 00:09:21.230 The vibrancy of the colors is not showing up nearly as well 00:09:21.230 --> 00:09:24.230 as I can see in person, that is staggering. 00:09:24.230 --> 00:09:27.510 But yeah, even just like the Switch online logo, 00:09:27.510 --> 00:09:32.653 you can see it, it's red, the Metroid Dread logo, it's red. 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 00:09:39.580 --> 00:09:44.580 and SRGB for a monitor or TV, which might strike you as, 00:09:46.350 --> 00:09:50.200 not necessarily what you want. You can see so much more of the screen, 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.140 like it's a seven 720p screen, yes. So you're gonna see pixels, 00:09:54.140 --> 00:09:59.140 but honestly, not really like this screen, it looks fine. 00:10:00.060 --> 00:10:03.090 This screen, yeah. 00:10:03.090 --> 00:10:07.823 Small, medium, large, except not actually larger, 00:10:07.823 --> 00:10:14.190 just the screen is larger. So this is 0.881 pounds, which is 14.1 ounces 00:10:14.190 --> 00:10:18.810 or 400 grams exactly, 424 grams. 00:10:18.810 --> 00:10:23.290 So yeah, it's not that much heavier. Now, it is disappointing that Nintendo 00:10:23.290 --> 00:10:26.740 didn't upgrade the SOC or, give us DLSS 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 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. 00:10:37.370 --> 00:10:40.470 (dramatic music) 00:10:40.470 --> 00:10:43.220 Okay, that sounds pretty good. The stereo engine is pretty good. 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 00:10:50.280 --> 00:10:57.035 for how the original Switch sounded. - [Phone Speaking] Cling to certain walls and ceilings, 00:10:57.035 --> 00:11:02.035 its automated (dramatic music) 00:11:03.170 --> 00:11:06.600 - It is richer, it's also a little bit louder I think. Hey, Linus is here. 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? 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? 00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:17.380 I just forgot to, wanna experience it here. 00:11:17.380 --> 00:11:20.530 I actually bought one already, I pre-ordered. 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 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. 00:11:31.160 --> 00:11:34.640 Literally the only thing I cared about, they fixed it, man. 00:11:34.640 --> 00:11:38.207 The bigger size freaking awesome. - [Anthony] Yeah its amazing, 00:11:38.207 --> 00:11:41.920 the bezels on the old one look like a Blackberry playbook. This is amazing. 00:11:41.920 --> 00:11:45.930 - Okay, all right. I am still okay with my pre-order. 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. 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 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 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. 00:12:08.170 --> 00:12:12.050 But when you're say, sitting on a plane playing Mario Party 00:12:12.050 --> 00:12:15.650 or something like that, it actually matters quite a lot. 00:12:15.650 --> 00:12:18.523 And the other thing is that it reduces clarity. 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. 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, 00:12:27.580 --> 00:12:31.510 especially here with the kind of haloing around link 00:12:31.510 --> 00:12:36.553 in the shadow of the clouds. It is very much more noticeable, 00:12:37.590 --> 00:12:41.616 but that doesn't mean it doesn't look good. 00:12:41.616 --> 00:12:44.930 (tab scraping) Oh yeah, every time. 00:12:44.930 --> 00:12:46.973 In this, you can feel it scraping, 00:12:49.410 --> 00:12:54.410 here, it's way less of a concern. 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 00:12:58.920 --> 00:13:02.900 to get across the differences that we've seen here. 00:13:02.900 --> 00:13:07.030 The dock is significantly upgraded actually when you think about it, 00:13:07.030 --> 00:13:10.250 you don't have to go out and buy a new LAN adapter, 00:13:10.250 --> 00:13:15.250 the Switch itself, beautiful display, better speakers, 00:13:16.380 --> 00:13:21.380 way, way better kickstand, that can go to any angle. 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, 00:13:28.870 --> 00:13:32.770 particularly if you're able to replace the backlight and the LCD that's failing. 00:13:32.770 --> 00:13:36.480 But I mean, how long are you gonna think, 00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:41.010 that's really far out. All right, Switch OLED model $ 349 US. 00:13:41.010 --> 00:13:45.810 Okay, and I think these regular switches $299. Am I not, am I correct? 00:13:45.810 --> 00:13:49.590 Actually, yeah. For 50 bucks in the difference, I would totally do it. 00:13:49.590 --> 00:13:53.260 If you don't have a Switch already, if you do have a Switch, now, 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. 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, 00:14:04.830 --> 00:14:08.240 this I think is the definitive experience. 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 00:14:14.880 --> 00:14:19.070 and first impressions like this one, get subscribed because there's plenty more 00:14:19.070 --> 00:14:20.120 where this came from. 00:14:22.099 --> 00:14:25.500 (glass breaks) Oh yeah, that's tempered glass.
