Nintendo announced that a new Switch model with an OLED display is launching on October 8. It will retail for $350, $50 more than the standard Switch.

Defying rumors and expectations, this new model doesn’t bring any performance improvements or support for 4K output on TVs. The OLED version will provide a more vibrant picture and a larger screen (it is 7 inches, compared to the original Switch’s 6.2 LCD display). It also comes with support for improved audio, 64GB of internal storage, and its dock has a LAN port. This Switch also has a wider adjustable stand.
