[RUMOR] Bloomberg claims a "Switch Pro" is planned for Holiday 2021, will have an OLED display

The reports claiming that a "Switch Pro", or at least a more powerful Nintendo Switch console will eventually release have been floating around since early 2018. At first, the Wall Street Journal was the initial reputable source to make such a certain statement, claiming both a budget-minded and "improved model" of Switch were in production, to which the Switch Lite and more power-efficient "Mariko" Switch released a short time later. Since then, fans have been clamoring for a Switch that can play games at higher framerates and resolutions. The rumor mill is cranking out yet another bit of tantalizing promise for eager Switch owners to latch onto: a revision sporting an OLED screen and 4K docked output is on the way.

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. Representatives for Nintendo and Samsung Display declined to comment.

Bloomberg's Takashi Mochizuki, who previously predicted both the Mariko model revision and the smaller Switch Lite, is now saying that Nintendo is planning to announce a bigger, better Switch console later this year, with a release date that will be in time for the holiday season. The report claims that Samsung is currently working on mass-producing 7-inch 720p OLED screens, which will be shipped out around July, and that news of this production likely means Nintendo is aiming to use them in their improved Switch system. Bloomberg's source also stated that not only will the new Switch come with OLED, but it will also feature 4K resolution when docked. The article didn't mention any possible hardware changes that would be used to power such a high-resolution output.

“The OLED panel will consume less battery, offer higher contrast and possibly faster response time when compared to the Switch’s current liquid-crystal display,” said Yoshio Tamura, co-founder of display consultancy DSCC.

It seems we'll have to wait just a little longer to see if this rumor comes true.

Nope works both ways if addressing a person.

Or you are (you're).

Fuck off, youve got nothing to add but be bored and quote people nearly a week later because no one is giving you attention anymore.

Pretty pathetic really.

Fyi, added to block list so quote all you like, maybe your momma will buy you some new toy cars.

Adios

Fyi looking at your profile last post, jacking off a sport, really? Your parents put up a firewall to block your porn you come here for attention.

See you later boy.

Hi there

Because the production of the regular Dock is discontinued and it’s sold out since weeks, i think the new Dock will also be compatible with the actual Switch and would be the official replacement and upgrade for the old one. Of corse it would be more expensive, because the full DLSS technology is integrated in it. But the higher price has to give some benefits to the users of the actual, regular Switches.

And while the DLSS technology is just some kind of a intelligent upscaling, i believe the new Dock will also boost the output of the old Switch to 4K. The advantage of the new, more powerful Switch itself, would just result in a higher framerate. This are just my opinions, also because the new OLED Display is still a 720p one, which doesn‘t require any DLSS.

Greets, Snap.

Source?

I don't think that we get a new dock. I mean, why do we need a new dock? The dock is just a dock. It streams the screen from the switch to tv. It has no special hardware inside.

i believe the new Dock will also boost the output of the old Switch to 4K
Very very unlikely. The old switch can max. 1080p.

Here's a question, would a powerful enough Switch be able to show 2 displays at once when docked? I'm imagining a new Switch with a new dock that leaves the screen exposed so that some games optionally offering a second screen display for simpler things like an always displayed map or other things of the sort.

It totally seems feasible to me, but I dunno if the tech really allows for the docked device to still display a second display while the TV shows the main display.
