Hi! I’ve been very excited to get a Deck for a year now and I’m able to get one, but I’m really not sure whether it’s worth shelling out an extra €100 for the OLED model. I’m planning to mostly play games casually, like DRG, so I don’t think I really need the higher refresh rate, and I can get those framerates on my PC.
Are the internal upgrades worth the extra money? Or should I go for the older LCD model? Or do I go for a refurbished one?
Thank you!
I think you’ve been fortunate that your ability to get one coincided with the launch of this revision, the value for money of the OLED deck when compared with the launch models is incredible.
Ultimately it will decide on how much you value the screen for causal play as I don’t think the other benefits (while good) will impact your experience as much as the screen.
That being said I decided to upgrade my deck from the launch model to OLED based on the amount of improvements and my experience moving to OLED on Switch.
