If you’ve been eyeing a Nintendo Switch OLED but haven’t wanted to pay full price, you might want to check out this refurbished model (with white Joy-Cons) going for $249.99 on Woot—that’s a solid chunk cheaper than Amazon’s $289 sale-price tag. However, this price is only live for four days or until it sells out, whichever comes first. This is a refurbished unit (tested and certified to work like new), so it may show light cosmetic wear, but performance-wise, you’re getting the same console that PCMag called the “Best Gaming Console of the Year” in 2021.
Its seven-inch OLED screen is brighter, crisper, and more vibrant than the original’s LCD. Games like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Super Mario Odyssey just pop in handheld mode—this is especially noticeable when you’re gaming outdoors or in a room with lots of natural light. There’s also a wider kickstand that actually supports the console now (so tabletop play isn’t a balancing act anymore), and a slight bump in storage (64GB instead of 32GB), though you’ll still probably need a microSD card eventually, notes this PCMag review. And while the Joy-Cons are the same in terms of function, the dock has been tweaked with a wired LAN port if you want a more stable internet connection. It’s not a performance boost under the hood—same processor, same RAM—but it feels like an upgrade if you’re using it mostly as a handheld or tabletop device.
That said, this deal has a few fine-print caveats. It only ships to the 48 contiguous U.S. states (so if you’re in Alaska, Hawaii, or elsewhere, no dice), and unless you’re an Amazon Prime member, you’re tacking on $6 for shipping. The 90-day Woot limited warranty is decent enough, too. If you’ve been debating whether the OLED version is worth the extra money over the base Switch, this refurbished deal narrows the price gap enough to make it more appealing.
