The Nintendo Switch 2 could be getting an improved LCD panel

The Nintendo Switch 2 has received plenty of praise for its hardware quality, with the sequel system taking what was a rather toy-like handheld and transforming it into a premium-feeling product. Unfortunately, the Switch 2’s screen left plenty to be desired, not only due to its LCD nature, but also as a result of notable ghosting on the 120hz panel. While a new OLED model still seems to be years away, the current LCD screen on Nintendo’s Switch 2 could be receiving a new revision.

As reported by the publication NintendoEverything, a new Switch 2 revision could be on its way with an updated LCD screen. This comes via listings online which claim to be offering a new LCD panel for the handheld.

Switch 2 LCD

Based on the model number listed, analysis by NintendoPatentsWatch deduced this new panel will be an LTPS screen made by Sharp (as opposed to the current model produced by Innolux).

Sharp is a well known and long-standing display maker, and so such a partnership does make sense. Whether this new panel will solve the current ghosting / screen response times affecting the Switch 2 however, we will have to wait and see.
