The new Nintendo Switch 2 maintains the original screen, but changes the fan for a new model





Nintendo announced a new model of its portable hybrid console, a new model that only seemed to respond to the demands in terms of EU replaceable batteries. But a new screen had been discovered by Sharp that seemed to be going to replace that of the current model, although in the end it seems that this was not the case. The disassembly of the new model of the console has revealed that the original screen is preserved.

Nintendo Switch 2 maintains its screen in the new revision

The revision appears to retain most of the original hardware, detecting small changes in the revision made during its disassembly. It has been a Polish console technician who has thoroughly reviewed the new model, identifying the same NVIDIA SoC along with the same 12 GB of RAMalthough in this model they are from another manufacturer.

It has also been found a different fan in this new revision of the console, although at the moment it is not known if this responds to improving temperatures or the noise level.

The mysterious Sharp screen still has no known fate

At the moment it is not known to which model the mysterious sharp panel which appeared a few weeks ago, and which apparently maintains the specifications of the original. Perhaps this screen is designed as a substitute to have more options in case a repair is needed, instead of installing the original panel, but the change in wiring makes us suspect that it may be related to a redesign of the console, although it seems that it is not this new version for Europe.

The new Nintendo Switch 2 makes it easier to change the battery

The new model has arrived to offer a Easier battery change by the usernothing more and nothing less. A change applied by the demands of the European Union, and adapting to these if Nintendo wanted to continue selling its console on our continent. For the moment, a battery change will not be necessary in many Nintendo Switch 2 consoles, but surely with time and the wear of this component, users who have this revised model will appreciate this simplification in changing the battery of their Nintendo Switch 2.
