That's like saying all impressions I've heard about David Koresh from the branch davidians have been very positive.All impressions I've heard about the screen have been very positive so I wouldn't worry about it.

ahaha i arm to famous now i must go will bring GIGA reviews later
VRR has been fixed, Sony has confirmed. So, we should thank him.Isn't this the guy who exposed sonys VRR issues? Or assisted in highlighting it?
I feel like he has a good idea.
How does the screen compare to the rog ally, does he say?
The measurements in the video relate to HDR specifically, not to the quality of the image in general. If the reviewer wants to make the claim that it's a below average LCD screen in general, relative to other handheld screens, then that's going to have to backed up with actual data."Trust me bro" vs actual measurements.....

That it's not an OLED? No.Is anyone really surprised?
lol, if you have a low peak brightness and elevated black levels despite that you have garbage contrast values and simply a bad LCD screen, there is no putting a positive spin on that. Nintendo cheaped out to make more profit on the unit and ofc to sell you a proper OLED version later.The measurements in the video relate to HDR specifically, not to the quality of the image in general.

Apparently you can't make money on YouTube unless you're shitting on or complaining about something. I'm honestly getting sick of it from ALL sides of everything.Have had zero complaints with the HDR in MKW and I don't have bleed on my lcd.
Am I using a high end display...yes.
Do I have a photographer grade dark room in my house…no.
Feels like ragebait is the only way these folks can make money on social media platforms.
Anyway…YMMV with your Switch 2 experience just like everything.
Nah, we should discredit him because he's bringing us information we don't likeIsn't this the guy who exposed sonys VRR issues? Or assisted in highlighting it?

How many devices have an LCD 1080p120fps HDR + Gsync screen in the market? Take your time…The people excusing this do not seem to understand that even cheap phones today have very good displays. The Steam Deck LCD's screen was also awful. The PS Portal seems to have a better screen which really shouldn't be the case. It seems like handheld gaming devices are now the dumping ground for cheap LCDs.
Yes I felt the Deck got a massive pass. When I started playing on it I was like wtf, this is like a dot matrix display. Gave it to the dog to play with.The people excusing this do not seem to understand that even cheap phones today have very good displays. The Steam Deck LCD's screen was also awful.

The general Nintendo audience won't notice the difference, the only people they have to worry about are the nerds like us, but as you can see in this thread even supposed hardcore gamers are excusing it.The people excusing this do not seem to understand that even cheap phones today have very good displays.

The same one in the Steam Deck OLED. I used that as an example as it is the closest competitor in terms of hardware and screen size.Which ones? Motorola's 250 GBP phone from last year has an LTPO OLED panel with a peak brightness of 3000 nits(!!) that can smoothly vary refresh rate between 1 Hz and 120 Hz. The cheap motorola from a year before the last year did 1000 nits, my nearly 4 year old pixel 6 pro that currently sells for less than 200GBP can pull off 1000 nits. You have to really go out of your way and be real cheap to stick to a 450 nits LCD panel in 2025.
Yeah, this guy is solid.
Also, the calm before the storm.
They're coming….
Obviously. A LCD is a LCD. You are not going to get a proper HDR experience with a VA or IPS panel without any sort of FALD or mini-led backlight system. Sure, the full screen display might get nice and bright, but black levels would be bad, and specular highlights will be next to nothing.
This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.
Hdr is really becoming a joke
7 - 12$How much you guys think Nintendo is making per console ?
Contrast isn't the only metric of a screen's quality. There are also viewing angles, colour accuracy, uniformity and response time to consider.lol, if you have a low peak brightness and elevated black levels despite that you have garbage contrast values and simply a bad LCD screen, there is no putting a positive spin on that.

tl;dw

- Fast Fusion is best HDR docked experience so far
DF guys don't know anything lol.Who is this guy? And didn't DF guys say the screen is great?
OK, just admit it. You're just an experiment from a fringe AI company, testing out how messed your output can be and people will still take you semi-seriously, right? Surely no human produced this output.iiiifffff it come is fake will cost $500 they still no lowers price of switch 1 lcd when oled come
If the contrast is bad the rest of the metrics can't save anything because the picture will always be flat. The rest of the metrics can make things worse but not better. It also doesn't matter if some other handhelds have similarly bad screens when we've had great fald LCDs and oled screens for years . Bad is just bad.Contrast isn't the only metric of a screen's quality. There are also viewing angles, colour accuracy, uniformity and response time to consider.
But even if we only care about contrast, the comparison should be with other handheld LCD screens, if we're making the claim that the Switch 2's screen is below average even for an LCD. So do we have comparable data, that suggests that the Switch 2 screen's contrast values are poor even relative to the Rog Ally, say?
Of course OLED will come later for $500.OLED should've been there at launch. They purposely held it back so that they could sell people an OLED refresh later.
Of course it matters, because the Switch 2 is competing against other handheld devices, not against TVs or monitors! (And yes, you can of course get portable OLED screens, but you also pay more for them).If the contrast is bad the rest of the metrics can't save anything because the picture will always be flat.

Yeah thousands of casuals impressed by over saturated TVs at Best Buy's display section.one opinion thousands disamgree say screen armazing
Do we have an estimate BoM for the S2?
450$ for this crap, hahaha.
DROP THE PRICE.
So about 200$ per unit?According to a Switch 2 data from Vietnam (others expenses as packing and transportation costs not included)
"because the Vietnam export data lists the Switch 2 unit price for custom duties as $338"

$338 is the (reported) manufacturing cost per unit. Then to work out the profit margin you have to add on shipping and the retailer cut.So about 200$ per unit?
The LG OLED guy.
Yeah not worth the click.
I don't know, but is that stuff worth the issues discussed?How many devices have an LCD 1080p120fps HDR + Gsync screen in the market? Take your time…![]()
about three fiddyHow much you guys think Nintendo is making per console ?
338$ is the value Nintendo declares per unit for customs, not necessarily the price per unit for manufacturing + logistics.$338 is the (reported) manufacturing cost per unit. Then to work out the profit margin you have to add on shipping and the retailer cut.
