Twinblade★ 3,922 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Hoping for 8 inches. Maybe even 9 if it doesn’t affect the form factor too much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) 8 inches is rumoured and it's the perfect size noting og was 6 inches. Means the joycons will be slightly bigger this time around. Sadly 9 inches isn't happening. Edited September 22, 2023 by Playstation Tablet Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,231 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I don't want the unit to get any taller or wider than it currently is. In fact I wish it could get like a couple of inches less wider. So 8 inches would probably be the biggest they could fit within that frame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tears of the Cows 1,209 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) I think the OLED model size is perfect. If you want bigger, you can dock. They can obviously minimize bezels to get a larger display though. Edited September 22, 2023 by Tears of the Cows Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This thing will probably be 400 which is a lot for the Nintendo market already. Not that the PS Portal is also LCD which is no surprise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because every model they’ve made and promoted since the OLED model released has been OLED why would they downgrade screen tech? The majority of switch models sold now are oled.

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Vita had an OLED by default no one cared and went blind using the 3DS instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,922 Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 Yeah it doesn’t make sense for them to go back to lcd. They have the supply chains and resources in place so there shouldn’t be much in the way of extra overhead when it comes to implementing a slightly larger OLED screen.

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 launch screen size is 7.81 inches btw. Datamined. LCD. Enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those are limited editions designed to generate revenue, though. Their bundles have always been (and will continue to be later this year with the newest annual Mario Kart bundle and the Sports bundle in Europe) the regular Switch. The OLED Switch let's them charge a premium on the internals. Why in the world would they give up that kind of price anchoring? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I do hope they have an OLED model at launch I'd pay the premium. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
