hi green tint

[dreamy plume]

Ive heard lot of the oled gave green tint and that males me reconsider the oled. How can that be fixed like turn the brightness to 100% and autobrightness on ?

[stable condor]

You can't. This is a manufacturing issue. Each display manufacturer has a slightly different variation and calibration. And Nintendo has contracts with multiple manufacturers for the OLED panel, hence the different in color balance.

This happened on the LCD panel for the normal Switch as well.

On normal Switch, it's a yellow or blueish tint. And most people prefer the latter.

The only thing you can do about it is simply buy one, and check if the monitor is acceptable for your eyes. If not, then return and exchange it for a different one till you get the one you want.

FWIW, I have an OLED Switch and it has no green tint.

i know that's not really an answer to your question but it is one data point to consider

[tropic cedar]

No green tint on mine afaik

[dreamy plume]

Like someone said on youtube video that they avoided the green tint when they took the brightness to 100% and autobrightness on is that false ?

I could only use the white theme then it wouldnt be that easy to see it then ?

Its well only the black theme thats soo good to see the green tint

[dreamy plume]

Lucky

[dreamy plume]

Lucky what theme you use black or the white one

[bitter storm]

I use the dark theme

[dreamy plume]

Oki have you tried to dim the brightness

[tropic cedar]

I use dark theme as well as I'm not a monster

[dreamy plume]

To low thats what people do to see if its green tint

[tropic cedar]

No green tint for me

[bitter storm]

yeah, like i said, no green tint here

[dreamy plume]

Is it a yellow tint this is full brightness with auto brightness on

[bitter storm]

looks pretty tint-free to me

[dreamy plume]

Yeah right i bought this for 2 years ago and i just picked it and ive never heard about the green tint or the blue or yellow tint at all lol

Well when i buy my oled on tuesday i gonna make sure to not use the protector if it should have intense green tint

I mostly play in handheld mode

[bitter storm]

what "protector" are you talking about? a screen protector?

[dreamy plume]

Yeah

Made of glass

[bitter storm]

you really should install one immediately upon purchasing the console

[dreamy plume]

Mah first i gonna see if its a intense green tint if not then i just gonna go ahead and put it on

[bitter storm]

okay

[tropic cedar]

I got the skinomi matte with anti glare for maybe 11 USD
Well worth it

[dreamy plume]

Well maybe i just gonna open the nintendo switch while i have bought it and do it in store to ask the people to install for me XD

After i have set it up

Haha

[bitter storm]

the screen protector I bought has a plastic guide to make installation easy

[dreamy plume]

Because its too dumb if i took the screen protecter on and then it was a green tint and needed to sent it back

Like i will most likely have the background theme on white then i would see the green tint haha

[bitter storm]

the screen protector for the original Switch won't fit the OLED switch (AFAIK anyway)

[dreamy plume]

Bruh i buying a case for my oled that have hard glass protector for the oled and the old one

Same day i gonna buy the oled so

[bitter storm]

well, good luck

[dreamy plume]

Thanks

[stable condor]

Youtube is the most random source of information you can get. If you see it's a random person saying it then it's mostly false.

There are certain channels with more legitimate knowledge and experience that you can watch, but the problem is they don't discuss about everything you need to know.

[dreamy plume]

Yeah thats why i asked here to confirm if it was true or false

[stable condor]

Which one is it? I kinda need something like that for the recommendation guide.

[bitter storm]

let me check, hang on

[dreamy plume]

Okay i say no to plastic protector

I would go for the glass for protector

[bitter storm]

it's a glass screen protector

[stable condor]

No, he meant a glass protector with a plastic guide

[dreamy plume]

Yo yeah

[stable condor]

It's like a frame, you put on the Switch then it helps align the protector

Very handy for anyone who's new to applying these

[bitter storm]

@stable condor https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09JG8V83Z

[dreamy plume]

Yeah i most likely let the people in the gaming store apply it for me

[stable condor]

oooh it's actually a brand we have in the list but this is an updated version

Wait, let me check

SCREEN PROTECTOR RECOMMENDATIONS

• Why should you get a Screen Protector?
The Nintendo Switch's screen is made from plastic. So the Nintendo Switch's screen can get scuffed, smudged, scratched, or even cracked. The Nintendo Switch (OLED model) has anti-scattering adhesive film to help protect the glass screen, but a screen protector is still recommended for an extra layer of protection.

※ The brand doesn't matter much since this type of product is often similar in quality across all brands. You should find one that's accessible for you and maybe with some extra benefits like anti-glare or blue light protection. Tempered glass option is often the better choice.

• Normal Switch: amFilm, iVolver , Orzly, Supershieldz

• Switch Lite: amFilm, ZAGG, Orzly

• Switch OLED: amFilm, iVoler, Supershieldz Anti-glare

[stable condor]

Frick, it's a different one

yeah I'll update it, thanks Doop

[bitter storm]

you're welcome!

[stable condor]

Anyway, @dreamy plume , one thing about these green tint is that.. it's actually rather subjective as well

Because each person has a different perception of color

so for some, when they look at a OLED with green tint, it would look totally normal or acceptable to them

and this perception also changes with brightness and the ambient lightning

That's why I recommend you buy it, check it on your own then decide what to do after

What if it's someone with red/green color blindness lol

[bitter storm]

congratulations?

[stable condor]

Brave, those things are plastic, can't stop it from being scratched

What the... I can't find any alignment kit for normal Switch

[bitter storm]

until you accidentally get a big scratch in it

[stable condor]

The problem is actually: If you damage the screen somehow, the cost of repairing it is quite high

Then it's fine for you, no worry

How do i say this i forgot

safety of mind?

[bitter storm]

peace of mind

[stable condor]

yeah that lol

[dreamy plume]

@stable condor the reason why ive never thought of getting protector is that ive had my v1 and never had any screen protector on it lol and not ecen a little rips in it

😊

So yeah 🙂

[stable condor]

Yeah, if you are someone who's very careful with their Switch, then you don't have to worry about it too much

[dreamy plume]

Im always very careful with every thing i have 🙂

[tropic cedar]

Can you por this one in there as well? It’s Matte and a fairly simple install as well

http://www.skinomi.com/sk39658-matte-nintendo-switch-oled-console-screen-protector.html

[stable condor]

I actually have seen this brand before but I have no experience with it.

Is there any stand out quality about this brand? Not that screen protector has to be difference, just want to know.

[tropic cedar]

It’s been pretty good to me
I like the matte look and anti-glare as well

The standout thing I guess is it has a of liquid applicator that acts as a dual purpose screen cleaner

[stable condor]

I look through it, seems to be the plastic type that has self-healing effect

Since it uses water to apply, it's indeed easier

I once have something similar for my NDS

Let me do a bit more digging and consider it for the list, thanks

[stable condor]

@tropic cedar Updated the tag, rewrote some stuffs. It's good to give people alternative so I add Skinomi to it. Thanks for the recommendation.

SCREEN PROTECTOR RECOMMENDATIONS

The Nintendo Switch's screen is made from plastic. So the Nintendo Switch's screen can get scuffed, smudged, scratched, or even cracked. Repairing a heavily damaged screen is costly. You should get a screen protector to prevent such scenario. The brand doesn't often matter that much. You should find one that's accessible for you and with extra features that fit your need. Tempered glass option is often the better choice.

※ Note: The Nintendo Switch (OLED model) has anti-scattering adhesive film to help protect the glass screen, it's not a screen protector, don't peel it off. A different screen protector can still be put on top of it for extra protection.

■ Normal Switch: amFilm, iVolver , Orzly, Supershieldz

■ Switch Lite: amFilm, ZAGG, Orzly

■ Switch OLED: amFilm, iVoler, Supershieldz Anti-glare

■ Self-healing plastic film: Skinomi

[tropic cedar]

Np!
Thank you!

[dreamy plume]

@stable condor since im buying a case that include tempred glass for the old switch and the new oled i might aswell ask one of the worker to put it on for me since i have no experience to apply it myself

And i dont really want to fuck it up myself lmao

[stable condor]

You should. That's what I often recommend people to do as well.

[dreamy plume]

This brand he use is soo perfect

[stable condor]

A guide like that is super convenient for anyone who doesn't have a lot of experience

But it's not that common, I think due to the extra cost

and unfortunately, one guide may not fit all the screen protector
