How to Preorder the Nintendo Switch OLED.
Nintendo

It’s not often that we see Nintendo Switch deals on the OLED model but Woot has bucked that trend with the Nintendo Switch OLED currently available for $30 off the regular price. That means instead of paying $350, you pay $320 which is a great price for a consistently sought-after game console. The deal only lasts for the next 10 days or until it sells out with the latter extremely likely to happen soon. Here’s what you need to know before you miss out.

Why you should buy the Nintendo Switch OLED

The Nintendo Switch OLED is a great upgrade to the standard Nintendo Switch and easily one of the best game consoles available right now. The big selling point to the Nintendo Switch is how you can use it hooked up to your TV but you can also play it portably. That’s because it has a 7-inch OLED screen for portable use. It looks great providing players with vivid colors and crisp contrast. Any Nintendo fan will know that many of its games are incredibly vibrant with the best Nintendo Switch games like the Mario and Zelda franchises looking stunning on an OLED screen.

The Nintendo Switch OLED uses Joy-Con controllers on either side when in portable mode with you able to take them off and use them separately when the console is docked. When docked, you can connect the Nintendo Switch OLED to your network via an Ethernet cable with a wide adjustable stand being useful. In tabletop or handheld mode, there’s enhanced audio from the onboard speakers.

64GB of internal storage is a great starting point while you can simply use microSD cards to expand storage over time. It all makes for a great console and a good upgrade to the standard Nintendo Switch. With a bigger screen, better audio and other incremental upgrades, it’s worth the investment.

The Nintendo Switch OLED usually costs $350 and is rarely discounted outside of sales events. Right now though, you can buy it for $30 off at Woot. Down to $320 from $350, the discount is unlikely to stick around for long given how popular the Nintendo Switch OLED is. Grab it now before you miss out.

A metallic Hall effect keyboard and a 59g mouse are Lenovo’s latest upgrades for snazzy gaming setups
The Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Y7MG mouse bring 8K polling to both sides of your gaming setup

Magnetic gaming keyboards and lightweight mice are hardly unusual anymore, but Lenovo is trying to push both ideas a little further with its latest Legion peripherals. The new lineup includes the Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Legion Y7MG mouse, and both support an 8,000Hz polling rate for players who want every input delivered to their PC as quickly as possible.

Of course, Lenovo has styled these peripherals to be as bold and eye-catching as possible without getting in the way of practicality. The keyboard has a hefty metallic design with translucent keycaps and RGB lighting. Compared to that, the mouse is more tame and traditional in design, but it also has an RGB strip that appears to belong on an alien spaceship. (via NotebookCheck)

However, you'll have to watch a short advertisement before your session begins. Microsoft says the ads will never interrupt gameplay, making this an early test of whether a simple tradeoff can bring cloud gaming to more players.
