Four years ago, on 3 March 2017, the Nintendo Switch released. The console now has an amazing library of must-play, critically acclaimed titles and we also saw a Lite version appear. However, it is still vastly underpowered compared to the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Now, according to a report from Bloomberg<\/a>, Nintendo could be planning a new Switch, with the production of the console’s display starting as early as June 2021.<\/p>\n

Nintendo Switch 2 details – OLED & 4K Output<\/h2>\n

There’s really no indication if the new Nintendo Switch will have a “2” next to its name, or maybe even a “Pro”. There have, however, been multiple rumours and speculations<\/a> about a new Nintendo Switch console.<\/p>\n

Now, according to the report from Bloomberg, people familiar with the project who have chosen to remain anonymous, have indicated the next Nintendo Switch console will feature a 7-inch OLED display from Samsung.<\/p>\n

The report explains: “Samsung Display Co. will start mass production of 7-inch, 720p resolution OLED panels as early as June with an initial monthly target of just under a million units, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing internal matters. The displays are slated for shipment to assemblers around July, the people said.”<\/p>\n

For those who are unaware, the original Switch has a 6.2-inch display, while the Switch Lite has a 5.5-inch display. Therefore, the Nintendo Switch 2 will have a bit of a larger screen to use in handheld mode.<\/p>\n

Lastly, the Bloomberg report echos what have previously been rumoured; the next Nintendo Switch will feature 4K video output while “paired with a TV”, aka when docked.<\/p>\n
