The Nintendo Switch (Japanese: ニンテンドースイッチ Nintendo Switch) is an enhanced, OLED model of the hybrid console of the same name. Like its original model, it is both a home console and a handheld console.[1]

First officially announced on July 7, 2021,[2] the OLED model of the Nintendo Switch was released on October 8, 2021. It features a 7-inch OLED screen, a wider and adjustable stand, enhanced audio, a wired LAN port built into the dock, and 64GB of internal storage.

The OLED model of the Nintendo Switch was not as successful as Nintendo hoped it would be. This is commonly attributed to the fact that the console lacks 4K gaming.
