While the Switch Lite is explicitly designed to be a dedicated handheld, it’s hard not to miss the ability to, well, Switch. The Switch Lite even fits into most of my shorts pockets, though I probably wouldn’t throw it in there without a protective case. That’s something I’d never do on my old Switch, which already feels massive after a few days with the Lite. I felt far less conspicuous than usual when I whipped out the smaller Switch to play some SNES games on the subway, and found myself continuing to play it as I stood on the platform in between train transfers. The benefits of the Switch Lite’s smaller design really became apparent when I started using it on my daily commute. But the Switch Lite is a single, sturdy chunk of plastic, making it feel like a true handheld rather than a display with two controllers strapped to the sides of it. The OG Switch has a lot of moving parts with its detachable Joy-Cons and large tablet display, and you can feel everything wiggle a bit when you’re holding the system in handheld mode. The console’s matte finish adds some nice extra grip, and seems to be far less prone to fingerprints than the glossy, smudge-prone tablet on the standard model.ĭespite being the smaller, cheaper Switch, the Switch Lite feels more well made than its bigger brother. The Lite’s white buttons pop nicely in contrast to the system’s gorgeous color options - I’m especially fond of our turquoise model, but the system also looks great in yellow, gray and coral. Nintendo’s miniature Switch is one of the most comfortable and attractive handheld consoles I’ve ever touched, with a compact 8.2 x 3.6-inch design that feels more travel-friendly than the standard 9.4 x 4-inch Switch. If you're in the market for a more compact OLED panel that packs the same punch as its bigger siblings from LG's latest, the 42 inch C2 at £999 is an excellent deal.I fell in love with the Switch Lite the moment I picked it up - it’s just that adorable. This will be particularly helpful if you're after the most cinematic gaming experience.
The C2 OLED also comes with Dolby Atmos powers within its built in speakers to offer some extra immersion and a generally more spatial audio experience given it'll be able to go vertically over you as well as around you. There's also a useful Game Optimiser menu that can help to customise the C2's performance to match what game you're playing so you get the right experience, be it to adjust latency or change brightness levels to make the most of the powerful OLED panel. If that wasn't enough to convince you, the C2 also has support for game streaming services such as Google Stadia and Nvidia GeForce Now so you may not even need a console to experience its power.
Alongside this comea support for all the VRR, be it HDMI VRR, or both AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync to help eliminate screen tearing and any juddering, as well as also aiding in offering the snappiest response time possible. Nonetheless, OLEDs offer unparalleled colour saturation, which will be useful if it's an immersive viewing experience you're after, thanks to a much more vivid and generally rich set of colours.įor the gamers in the audience, there's plenty to like about the 42 inch C2, especially given that it features all the right creature comforts including a slew of HDMI 2.1 ports which allows the C2 to play nicely with next-gen consoles at 4K 120Hz. This particularly helps the C2 along to offer more brightness, which is typically an area that OLED panels struggle with, especially compared to QLED or Mini LED competitors. The main draw of the C2 series over the the C1 specifically is that it offers LG's uprated OLED Evo panel that had previously been found in the G1 series. Well, now might be the time to pull the trigger if you were thinking of grabbing LG's smallest OLED as Currys has it for £999, offering a £300 saving on the telly's usual £1299 retail price. The C2 series notably brought with it the addition of a smaller 42 inch OLED to offer the powers of incredible blacks, contrast and vibrant colours to people who simply don't have the space for a bigger screen (like me for instance!). LG's latest run of C2 OLEDs represents quite a beefy upgrade over their predecessors, which we rated as the top 4K TV for HDR gaming, and since their release, they've seemed to drop a little bit in price.
