Nintendo Switch 2 OLED Upgrade Rumored for 2028 Release

A Korean report cites talks at Nintendo about an OLED version of the Switch 2, potentially with 1080p handheld resolution and HDR support. Production would likely not start before late 2027, with a possible 2028 release, and Samsung Display could supply the panels, though price impact is unclear. Nintendo has also announced minor revisions in Europe to comply with Right to Repair and new battery rules, but there’s no official confirmation of an OLED Switch 2 yet.

Yoshida Praises Steam Machine’s Quiet, Compact Design While Questioning Its Performance and Price

Veteran industry voice Shuhei Yoshida offers a mixed first impression of Valve’s Steam Machine: he criticizes its 3D performance as underwhelming and notes the device defaults to 1080p, a concession that underscores power concerns versus current-gen machines, and questions the price. Yet he also highlights the software polish, easy-to-navigate UI, and standout touches like waking from the Steam Controller, swappable faceplates, and a notably quiet, compact form factor, and later says he’s genuinely enjoying the device despite the critiques. The takeaway: strong software/UX and niche appeal for enthusiasts, with substantive questions about raw performance and value for mainstream buyers.

LG Debuts Native 1,000Hz Full HD UltraGear for Competitive FPS

LG unveiled the UltraGear, a 24.5-inch IPS Full HD monitor with a native 1,000Hz refresh rate, designed for competitive FPS play where fast reaction times matter. Unlike some rivals that require lowering resolution to reach 1,000Hz, LG says this model can hit 1,000Hz at 1080p. It features a compact stand with tilt/height adjustment, a headset hook, a low-reflection panel, and on-device AI for scene optimization and spatial audio, though pricing and availability remain undisclosed.

Switch 2 update brings Handheld Mode Boost to sharpen older titles

Switch 2 update brings Handheld Mode Boost to sharpen older titles

Nintendo’s Switch 2 firmware update 22.0.0 adds Handheld Mode Boost, which prompts many original Switch games to render at 1080p on handheld by running as if in docked mode. The boost isn’t native 1080p for every title, and some games (e.g., Super Mario Maker 2, Skyward Sword HD) aren’t compatible yet. In Boost mode, Joy‑Con 2 behaves like a Pro Controller, disabling motion controls and touchscreen. The update also brings a new loading animation, GameChat features, and other flight-mode and customization tweaks; full patch notes are available from Nintendo.

Switch 2's Handheld Boost Ups Original Games to 1080p on the Go

A new Switch 2 system update (version 22.0.0) adds Handheld Mode Boost, allowing unpatched original Switch games to run in handheld at 1080p by upscaling from 720p. Early tests (e.g., Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Dragon Quest XI S) show sharper visuals and docked-like detail in handheld, but the feature increases power use and drains battery, disables touchscreen input, and makes Joy-Cons register as a single Pro Controller. Not all games benefit, and patched Switch 2 titles aren’t affected. Enable via System settings > Nintendo Switch Software Handling.

TCL PlayCube: a Rubik’s Cube-inspired pocket projector for on-the-go cinema

An $800, 1080p portable projector with a Rubik’s Cube-inspired 90-degree rotating design, the TCL PlayCube delivers bright image quality for its size and three hours of battery life in bright mode, plus Google TV and flexible mounting for vanlife; it can double as a Bluetooth speaker and recharges via USB-C, but the built-in audio is only decent, standby power drain and occasional UI sluggishness temper the experience, making it a solid but not perfect option versus rivals like the XGIMI Halo+.
