Summary
ZDNet Korea reported Nintendo is reviewing a Switch 2 OLED model with a 1,920x1,080 display, a step up from the original Switch OLED's 1,280x720 panel.
Late 2027 or early 2028 mass production is possible only if Nintendo approves the project and starts development at the end of 2026, according to industry sources.
Samsung Display is expected to pursue panel supply, but the OLED-LCD price gap is reportedly a key obstacle to finalizing the plan.
Nintendo has not announced such a model, and the report says any launch still hinges on development timing, manufacturing costs and market demand.
The deliberations follow earlier reports that Nintendo was also considering an upgraded LCD version of Switch 2 to address ghosting complaints.
