Is that the old version of the dock though?

I think the white joy cons look great with the new screen, but I’m not sure about the white dock

Get the white. I've had the OLED for a couple of months and I still find myself being really impressed with the look of it.

I'm the exact same way. Never really cared about playing handheld but with the OLED, I'm almost exclusively handheld. It's that good.

I'm going to play Arceus on the dock in a bit later after I finish Altered Carbon. I usually don't use the dock but the whole point of buying a Switch with a dock was to play on the TV from time to time.

I just checked the Nintendo website and it does show a listing for the Black OLED Dock, but it does say out of stock. I'm sure it'll be available again someday.

Got the OLED model this week. Oddly enough the screen is killing my eyes. I think it’s the flickering that this model does. Sucks because the screen itself looks amazing.

My OLED display at home does not flicker, neither does the one on my phone. I don't own a Nintendo Switch OLED, but it should not flicker.

Mine doesn't flicker, at least not that I've noticed. It could be a sensitivity, like how some people can't work under fluorescent lights because of the flicker or hum.

The OLED is amazing. Glad I traded in my switch for it.

I was at Walmart on Sat (Teterboro, NJ location) and they had a couple of them.

I'm just wondering what the original switch is worth?
