Treat yourself with eight inches of LCD on Switch 2, report says

Nintendo’s Switch 2 will feature an eight-inch LCD screen, according to a new report.

Bloomberg today said that Nintendo’s next console will feature the company’s largest screen size ever, according to an analyst with knowledge of the supply chain. But it will be LCD, rather than OLED – a decision which will help keep costs down.

To compare, the Switch OLED features a seven-inch screen. The original Switch model features a 6.2-inch screen. Nintendo declined to comment when contacted regarding the report.

Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the games industry’s worst kept secrets at this point. Last week, a GDC report revealed hundreds of developers were working on projects for the unannounced console. Last year, Eurogamer reported that Nintendo Switch 2 hardware capabilities were being showcased to developers last summer around Gamescom.
