#biggerdisplay

Nintendo’s newest iteration of this console generation is the Switch, which is 4 years old in 2021. I know that for sure, because I have the original Switch model way back from the year 2017. Nevertheless, it seems like the company who stands behind this console, named Nintendo, has finally found out that they could offer a product with an OLED display. Like a PlayStation Vita 2.0. And it finally arrived!

The box I got from todays mail. It’s half the size of the original box, but it still got plenty of things inside of it.

The insides of the box and how the screen looks like. You have to note that the screen doesn’t have huge bezel’s at all and that the sound is because of it’s size a bit more muffled.

So when I first opened the box, which was delivered by the Slovenian Post, I’ve found out that the Switch got a cool redesign to it’s shell. It’s bigger and better. The colours really pop out of the screen. The ventilators is also more covered up, so there can be a very small ammount of dust trapped inside of the console. It’s not that much heavier. The speakers are at the bottom, which happens to influence the sound, which is more muffled out of the speakers. The kickstand is also more stirm this time around. The graphics engine and everything inside of the console is the same as the 2017’s model, albeit the battery life has changed - it has juice between 4 to 9 hours. And yes, you can play and see everything from the outside with this new OLED screen! Finally!

Me and my gf’s @aquamoon33 hands holding the OLED Switch and was finally able to transfer all of the User data to the new OLED Switch.

Overall, I’m very, very pleased with this model! ^^

The old 2017 launch edition Switch will go to it’s final resting place - to the Archive, where I have my HP laptop from 2009 in it! :)

9,5 / 10

THE GOOD:

- Bigger OLED screen

- Better kickstand

- Smaller package

- Longer battery life

Apple Watch Series 10 rumors

The Apple Watch Series 10 is destined to become a device that will go down in history. As the tenth generation of Apple’s groundbreaking wristwatch, it is rumoured to include considerable advancements while maybe honouring the milestone with a particular branding twist. This is because the smartwatch is the flagship product of Apple. Examining the rumours and anticipations that surround this highly anticipated wearable device is something that they will do.

Series 10 Apple Watch

Possibly, the Apple watch Series 10 will get a significant redesign in the near future. There are reports that indicate a significant increase in display size for both models, with the possibility of reaching dimensions that are comparable to the 1.93-inch screen that is now seen on the Apple Watch Ultra. It is possible that the larger model will possibly feature a display that is two inches in size, providing additional space for applications, watch faces, and fitness statistics.

It is interesting to note that despite the larger screen, the total footprint of the watch is anticipated to be smaller. This is due to developments in display technology as well as the miniaturisation of internal components. Consequently, this may result in a more pleasant wearing experience as well as a more streamlined appearance.

A Decade Well Spent in Excellence

It is predicted that the Apple watch Series 10 would be equipped with a powerful new chip, which will build upon Apple’s rich history of producing wearables that are focused on performance. It is possible that this improvement may pave the way for improved app performance, better data processing, and even the possibility of laying the framework for future  artificial intelligence functions that will be included on the wrist.

Question Regarding the Anniversary

Apple may decide to abandon the regular naming scheme and market the Apple Watch Series 10 as a special anniversary edition, similar to how they labelled the iPhone X in 2017. This would be in light of the fact that the Series 10 will represent ten years since the introduction of the Apple Watch. When compared to earlier generations, this may represent a more significant leap forward in terms of functionality.

Components of Health: A Complicated Mix

Apple Watch updates typically include the addition of new capabilities that track the wearer’s health. It was speculated that the Apple watch Series 10 would have features such as monitoring of blood pressure and detection of sleep apnea; however, sources imply that these features would be delayed due to technological obstacles. Within the context of testing, blood pressure monitoring in particular appears to be experiencing reliability challenges, and it is possible that Apple will require further time to improve the technology.

The current legal issue with Masimo Corporation may bring up more complications for the identification of sleep apnea, which is highly dependent on data regarding blood oxygen levels. There is, however, the chance that Apple will mention these capabilities during the launch event, but then postpone the release of these features until they are fully functional.

On the plus side, it is possible that the Series 10 will see advancements in the health features that are now present. There is a possibility that we will see increasingly sophisticated features for tracking workouts, improved metrics for monitoring sleep, and possibly even new sensor integrations for the purpose of recording extra health data.

With a larger display comes a greater need for battery life

Larger displays often use more battery. Apple’s organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display may feature a new thin-film transistor (TFT) technology with low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO). This could boost power efficiency and address the battery capacity issue caused by larger screens. The performance of the battery could also be improved further by the implementation of software optimisations for the new semiconductor.

Apple Watch Ecosystem: Expanding Opportunities

Apple Watch success is due to its easy integration with the iPhone and the growing app developer ecosystem. Considering the growing cosmos, it is conceivable that the Series 10 will profit from it. New watch faces, enhanced app functionality, and possibly even a more profound integration with Apple’s health and fitness services are all things that we can anticipate going forward. Additionally, with the rumoured performance improvement, the Series 10 might potentially open the door to wristwatch applications that are more complex and equipped with a greater number of features.

A Glance with Regards to the Future

Apple’s wearable strategy may change with the debut of the Apple Watch Series 10, which is slated to be upgraded. Even without anniversary branding, the larger display, faster performance, and potential health features are enticing. Apple’s focus on battery life and a more simplified design shows its commitment to improving the wristwatch experience, even if some health tracking functionalities are delayed. The Apple Watch Series 10 paves the way for wrist-worn technologies. Apple Watch enters its second decade.

Apple Watch Series10 release date

While the Apple Watch Series 10 (also known as the Apple Watch X) has no official release date yet, it is anticipated to be launched in late summer or early fall of 2024 based on Apple’s customary release pattern. Usually, this falls around Apple’s September event.

Remember that none of this stuff has been tested or validated. Apple may choose a different route despite these reports and disclosures. We must wait until September 2024 to see what the Apple Watch Series 10 will bring.
