Currently have a modded DSLite, it's good but got really outdated by now.
I would like to buy a model of the "New" DS series, but don't really know which one, because not everything seemed to be a straight upgrade compared to the other versions:

- 3DS/2DS: except for some niche cases, to fool around with 3D, the New 2DS/XL would be ok, but I heard, that the 2DS (at least the XL) has a glossy screen, that is also blurry? overall I really prefer matte screens, but how bad it is compared to the 3DS? also is it only on both the normal and the XL 2DS?
- battery life: does the 3DS drain the battery more if the 3D is off? I know that for example the DSI XL has better battery life than the simple DSI, but what is the situation in this case?
- are there any subtle differences between the 4 models, that are not so obvious at first, but can be annoying in the long run? like flimsy buttons, string/weak hinges (I read, that the New series feel more sturdier hinge-wise?)
