Nintendo Switch OLED Model Teardown

ID: 145357

Description:

Steps:

  1. The Nintendo Switch OLED Model earns a 7 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair):
  2. Most important components are modular and easy to replace.
  3. Batteries, though adhered to their housings, are easy to access and disconnect, and not too difficult to remove.
  4. The new OLED display is only adhered to the console around the edges, making replacements just as easy as the original Switch.
  5. Some of the internal changes to the Switch OLED reduce the modularity of individual components.
  6. Proprietary tri-point screws restrict users from opening the Switch.
