    I have owned both, and I much prefer the etched glass. Talk of it degrading the image quality is entirely overblown.

    Had the 512GB and really didn’t mind anything about the glass. That said am going with glossy for OLED since I want it to look just like the SWOLED.

    I’m shocked by how many people are being swayed by Dave2D’s video. After reading all the discourse, I took out my Switch OLED and 512 Steam Deck in my apartment during a sunny day. The etched glass was by far superior - the OLED was just a reflection of my face. While it won’t be the absolute blackest blacks, it will be damn close and at least remove any distracting reflections. Also playing at night will let me see the pure OLED experience

      I don’t think anyone’s doubting it’s effect on a bright sunny day. It’s more of an evening setting with a corner lamp I’m curious about or w very dark room, does the etched even catch light or is it basically super black in these conditions?

    I’m actually more curious if the casing has any texture like the original. That would be the biggest deal breaker for me.

    i saw a review where they put a screen protector on the etched OLED- looked pretty much the same as the non-etched at that point.
    I’m torn, like the limited edition but the extra $$ plus the etched glass making the OLED look washed out . . . . might just go for the normal glossy screen and save some money this time.
