I haven't even bothered to enable VRR for my PS5. Absolute smoothness isnt something I need in a game. My brain has seen fit to ignore minor framerate hiccups.

That's all display related. VRR literally has no effect on the image being rendered.

But isn't that what we're discussing here, the panel? It varies from panel to panel, but the VRR technology has its flaws like any other… Some screens will have more issues, and others won't.

I wouldn't say no to OLED, but I'm more interested in a die shrink and better battery life than upgrading the screen. If they did upgrade the screen, I'd also be fine with LED over OLED for the refresh, but in reality they'll just go for whatever is being mass produced at the moment and therefore is cheap.

Edit: I completely missed the actual thread premise even if it's on the title lol

No, I also skipped original Switch OLED…..to me these type of "upgrade" are not worth the money.

Despite of issues people have with Switch 2's screen, I personally quite happy with it.

Who gives a shit about VRR or OLED, such marginal gains, just give me excellent games.

Also this, I have zero care for any VRR, ray-tracing, OLED or any of these technical stuff.

I buy any system one reason and reason only and that games.

They could always go with mini LED and have both.

One thing that benefits consoles far more than VRR is a 40 FPS mode. That really should be available in every game.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

Nope cause the only thing that would make me buy the Switch 2 is if they release a big AAA Zelda in the style of Majora's Mask/Ocarina of Time's artbook style or the Wii U tech demo.

 

[Goalus]

I will only buy a Switch 2 - OLED or not - if Nintendo develop and release Sin & Punishment 3. Otherwise not.

 

[REDRZA MWS]

No…. Lol

 

[Jacobson]

i find it funny that when the OG Switch was announced in 2017, people were like "give me a dedicated home console Nintendo" or "nobody wants this", 8 years later and everyone seems to want to only play in handheld mode lmao

Wait so OLED TV has VRR but handheld OLED's don't have VRR? This sounds like a technology standards issue.

No, it's a power draw issue.

OLED TVs and monitors with VVR use techniques that all draw more power. That's not great on a handheld, especially one with pretty poor battery life.
