The Pros and Cons of Nintendo Switch 2 with an LCD Screen
Rumors about the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 console have taken an unexpected turn – it is said to feature an LCD screen instead of OLED. While this information may be true, it could be a significant step backwards.
Previous models of the Nintendo Switch were equipped with LCD screens, but Nintendo surprised everyone by introducing the Switch OLED with a higher-quality OLED screen. However, the latest report suggests that Nintendo is planning to return to LCD technology.
OLED screens offer significantly better image quality than LCD screens. Games like Metroid: Dread and Alien: Isolation look much better on an OLED screen, which provides deeper blacks and greater brightness. Returning to an LCD screen, which cannot display blacks as well and has issues with image uniformity, would be a huge disappointment for fans who value high-quality visuals.
However, it is important to note that OLED screens are more expensive to produce than LCD screens. Nintendo’s choice of LCD screens may be driven by a desire to save money in the production of the new console. The average Switch player may not notice a significant difference between a model with an LCD screen and a model with an OLED screen.
Nevertheless, the opinions of true OLED enthusiasts cannot be ignored. For them, a return to an LCD screen would be a significant step backwards. It is worth remembering that Nintendo has achieved great sales success with the Switch, so regardless of the choice of screen technology, Nintendo will sell its products in huge quantities.
If I had to choose, I would always prefer an OLED screen. As a lover of high-quality visuals, I believe that reverting to an LCD screen for the Nintendo Switch 2 would be a mistake. However, most Nintendo players probably do not pay much attention to screen technology and focus more on the gameplay itself.
Will I buy the Nintendo Switch 2 with an LCD screen? It depends on several factors. If the console continues to support docking and allows me to connect it to my OLED television, there is a chance that I will choose it. Otherwise, the choice between an LCD screen and an OLED screen is obvious to me.
