@@webinatic216 That's a lame excuse, it's quite difficult to accidentally damage a battery to the point it combusts, plus if manufacturers were actually concerned about that, they wouldn't use this ultra strong adhesive to hold the batteries in place which is completely unnecessary since there's no space for the battery to move around in these extremely miniaturized devices anyway! Users accidentally bending the battery to the point of critical failure wouldn't be a concern, if they didn't have to pry it out in the first place! Now that I think about it: I've never heard of anyone suing a manufacturer because the battery they pried out from their device exploded. However, we all have heard of brand-new, never opened devices randomly catching fire, because of poor design... Tl;dr it's a bullshit excuse that manufacturers use to justify making user-repair more difficult (which in fact *increases* the safety risk) and force people to buy new & feed the landfills at an insane and unnecessary rate. Please stop spreading their excuses!

@DoctorX17 It's not impossible, but you do need a modded Switch to extract the keys and transfer/rebuild the eMMC's contents. You can also find bigger aftermarket eMMC modules if you want an internal storage upgrade. Still, even tho afaik the entire process can be done without ever booting into a CFW (the keys can be dumped using a RCM payload, which is completely independent from the console's firmware, and the eMMC dump can be manipulated from a PC), I still wouldn't recommend going online with a bigger module afterwards even if you keep the firmware completely stock as the Switch's telemetry does include the eMMC's size among various other fields, potentially making it easy for Nintendo to detect that the console has been hardmodded.

For first time Switch owners I think the OLED is a great way to get into the world of Nintendo Switch but for people who already own a switch like myself I think it's best to skip the OLED. I was debating about whether or not to upgrade to OLED but just cant justify myself into buying it since there is very little changes between the original Switch and the new OLED switch. Also, it's weird that the OLED is $50 more than the original switch! I hope Nintendo introduces a much better updated switch in the future that would justify upgrading from the original switch to the new updated switch.

I upgraded from a launch switch and i have no regrets, the screen is leaps and bounds better then the OG, having them side by side the difference is staggering. The OLED is better built too, everything feels sturdier and that kickstand is so good. I was also able to sell my og switch on ebay for $370 aud (i paid $399 in 2018) which made the $539 aud price of the OLED just a $169 upgrade to get better battery performance, a stunning screen and while vain, the white joycons and dock really are rather sexy (they match my PS5 now!)

If you have the Switch V2 and only play docked I respect your comment. If you play portable or mixed the OLED Switch is worth it. The display is incredible and bigger compared to the original as well as the far better kick stand and far smaller screen bezels. The build quality and design is a lot better as well along with the new dock and an extra 32gbs of internal storage.

I saw a video a while ago of a guy who claimed to have figured out that the joycon drift is caused in most cases by the stick not being properly supported from the bottom, leading to the metal casing bulging and reducing the pressure on the potentiometer wipers inside. A simple fix was to add a thin piece of card stock (or similar) in between the stick and the joycon housing. Maybe all Nintendo did was make a slight change to the mold of the joycon housing, so that the plastic underneath the stick is slightly thicker?

If anything, it would help both consumers and Nintendo to make it such, as it would help spring electronics shops nearer to consumers, and Nintendo could work with them to make repair times lower (if instead of sending it to who knows where in a centralised repair "factory", Nintendo has deals with stores in your state/province, the travel times will lower, emissions will as well and you'll get your console back sooner).

Taylor is so amazingly smart, articulate, and entertaining. It is so sad that people like him and others at IFixIt and elsewhere are having to essentially battle against tech giants. The tech giants could utilize the work of him and others to make their products more repairable. Perhaps, just maybe, the tech giants are being to move on the issue of repairability.

Everyone just kind of skips by the actual removal of parts. How do you take the joycon ribbons out? The heat sink is pretty stuck on and you just cut to it coming off.

Someone in one of the comments below mentioned how Nintendo could have improved on the joystick and maybe did something under the metal, where you can't see even if you tore into it. I finally found someone speaking sense and not whining and complaining on things they just don't understand. The improvements are most likely UNDER what we see. More people need to begin to understand. You can't see who is just trying to cause trouble or those that see sense these days.

So I've come across an issue with the rails of the Nintendo switch oled. some disinfectant sanitizer got onto my joy-con and left side rails of the Nintendo switch OLED, and now is very finicky with connection. I took apart the switch to wipe down with unfortunately I only had 91%. Isopropyl alcohol, and it works better but still with light movements it will disconnect or reconnect. My question is is it possible to reuse the original switches left side rail module or rail and total to replace the left side Nintendo switch OLED rail?

Just put a screen protector on top of the film. That's what I would do. Hopefully when the screen protector needs to be removed, the film underneath doesn't get damaged. You might want to talk with a Nintendo representative (assuming they even answer your question, lol...)

I can’t seem to find the answer to this question anywhere on the internet. But for the protective film on the front of the OLED panel. Is it possible to replace? I bought mine used and it looks like the previous owner made the mistake of trying to take it off. One of the corners is bubbled up. So is it possible to take it off and replace it and where would I find a replacement?

Take it off entirely. It does nothing but stop glass from flying everywhere if dropped.

After 3 years, I would think Nintendo would do a Switch Pro or tweak performance and give gamers a smoother experience when playing games if upgrading the graphics card wasn't an option for Nintendo but at least release a newer model with 30fps locked with the OLED screen upgrade could been a nice addition.

A removable / modular storage unit on the original vs the non modular memory module on the oled makes 0 difference as swapping these modules between Nintendo switch units doesn't work to begin with... Unless the units you are swapping them on are unpatched and can have various points of data dumped and transferred to another module. But that's getting into a territory of the switch that isn't too common anymore. Great teardown video either way

So does the OLED still suffer from certain issues (especially with V2) such as cracks developing near screws, bending from heat when docked (believe it's been confirmed as a myth?), rail issues, fan issues, scratching when docked, and such? If the build quality is better and prone to less issues then that makes 350 and a cheap OLED Samsung screen a bit better to swallow.
