So, basically what’s on the title.

Plus, some opinions based on the little experience I have already:

  1. the screen is not NEARLY as bad as people make it out to be, specially compared to the OG Switch. It’s much better.

  2. the wifi module is a piece of garbage. I’ve been dealing with issues since I turned it on. Updating was a pain in the ass, downloading games was a pain in the ass. 5ghz wifi literally doesn’t work at all, 2.4ghz works but slow as fuck (like 1/5 of my actual speed). I’m actually super frustrated about this one.

    You can try turning off wifi power saving in the options menu, and if that doesn’t help, try turning off ipv6 in the wifi settings menu in desktop mode. Either of these might help.

          I don’t think it did a difference, but I haven’t downloaded anything from Steam itself, I’ve been messing with emulation. When I try it I’ll let you know.

        I use Mac filtering in my router to force the use of 5ghz - but mine has that option, your mileage may vary there. I did this with my switch as well.

        Do you have the download display set to bits or bytes per second? It is a factor of 8 difference.

          I think it’s bits. But it’s not a problem of slow speed, it goes full throttle at first and then it dies completely, to 0
