How does the screen on the Switch 2 compare to the OLED? I know it's a bit larger, but how does the image hold up?
Switch OLED display is better imo, but it's 720p vs 1080p, OLED vs IPS, 7" vs 7.9", etc. Most rumors point to late 2027 or early 2028 for a Switch 2 OLED model though (and that's at the earliest).

Rather wait for switch 2 oled? My only reason to buy now is for price increases in September.
Poorly. The Switch 2 has a bottom of the barrel screen even for an LCD. Pixel response times are among the worst in the industry.
Yep, this. If a smeary handheld image doesn't bother you, the Switch 2 is an upgrade in every front. But if you have other OLED screens, those response times are miserable.
Weird question Once you initiate the deal how long do you have to execute I might but bite on this but an out of town and probably can't do the trade in until 8/31 (day before the price increase on the switch 2)
I'd be interested to know that too. I would wanna hold out for the anticipated switch 2 Zelda 40th edition.

It's literally the fastest selling game machine in the history of games.
