Ok while I 100 percent agree the OLED version is way better I think people should not be comparing them.

First off the OLED has a much better screen and battery life with a few other minor benefits. However when compared to the 64 GB model which cost $430 new now to the 512 OLED model which cost $690 it is a difference of $260 or roughly 60 percent more. Add on $30 for a 500gb SD card and it’s now a $230 different or 53 percent more.

I personally think a lot of people including myself don’t see it worth the price difference. While a nice screen and battery life is nicer I find myself never playing over 2 hours straight undocked and have not come close to running out of battery so an increase means no difference. Plus at the end of the day the games are really what matter and both have the same performance.

In addition if you live in an area with higher sales taxes like NS at 15 percent it makes the price difference even more vast.

I got a 64GB model for $450 and don’t regret the purchase. Also you may find some really good deals now on non OLED decks.

Note: All prices are in Canadian dollars and not American. Now duke it out in the comments.

    Meh I’m good. It’s nice for new folk! But if you already own a deck I would wait for the second version. I also have a rog ally! And that 1080p screen is gorgeous! And it’s also quite a bit more powerful.
