Photo: TomsGuide Nintendo Switch is one of the great inventions of the 21st century when it redefined a handheld gaming device. Although this device has not been appreciated for hardware and display quality compared to competitors like PS5 or Xbox, many sources have pointed out that the Nintendo Switch Pro version with a powerful configuration will be released this year. Up until now, Nintendo has yet to confirm the existence of this upgraded model, but that has not stopped the rumors that continue to be revealed about the Nintendo Switch Pro. Interestingly, when asked about the viability of a Nintendo Switch Pro model, Bowser told Polygon “we believe we are in the middle of the life cycle”. Is that a hidden answer to the right time for a new upgraded version? Pro version price So far, there has been no official announcement about the price of the Nintendo Switch Pro. However, due to the improved hardware and performance, we can be sure that this new version of the Switch will be more expensive than its predecessor. According to Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Matthew Kanterman, he believes the Switch Pro will be at least $ 100 more expensive than the base model of just $ 299. “$ 349.99 increases the value of the device, but I think Nintendo still has a large number of customers at $ 399.99.” Not just Kanterman but in an interview with Gamesindustry.biz, games analyst-Dr. Serkan Toto suggested the Switch Pro will cost around $ 399. Specifications of the Nintendo Switch Pro Most sources have made different predictions about the specifications on the Switch Pro version. However, the majority of them claim that the Nintendo Switch Pro supports 4K resolution in docking mode, as well as better battery life. Recent rumors include that a data miner has found signs in the Switch’s firmware code, suggesting that there will be a new Switch model in terms of display. SciresM data miner said the new system is codenamed Aula: “I don’t know if it is 4K or not. But Aula’s firmware does support a few Realtek chips that have been introduced as a “4K UHD multimedia chip”. This helps us know the chipset will deliver more performance by being pushed to higher clock speeds supported by an improved cooling system. While Economic Daily News in Taiwan claims that instead of an OLED display, the Nintendo Switch Pro will feature Mini-LED technology as a more economical alternative. However, other sources disagree with Economic Daily News. Currently, almost all information is directed towards Samsung supplying new OLED panels for Nintendo. In an exclusive interview with Ross Young, co-founder and CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, discussed the potential of Switch Pro with an OLED display and the pros and cons that this technology can bring. . “LCD screens use maximum brightness, whether it’s a white or black image, but OLED doesn’t,” Young said. “Their power consumption varies with content. So it will depend on the type of content you are displaying. OLED screens have a big advantage if they show video, but if it’s a video game with lots of bright colors, the OLED can consume more power. According to updated information from Bloomberg, Nintendo is also teaming up with NVIDIA Corp to produce a new graphics chipset that powers the Nintendo Switch Pro. Features of Nintendo Switch Pro The success that Nintendo Switch and Lite series bring to the manufacturer is undeniable. So the hero will not be too surprised when the Nintendo Switch Pro is still the handheld game combined with the desktop like its predecessors. According to a patent recently filed by Nintendo, the company appears to be working on a fitness tracking device potentially included in the Switch Pro. The translation of the 61-page document shows that this patented device contains a fitness tracker similar to what you find on a smartphone, capable of tracking your sleep. , track your mental health indicators and assessments. For now, indications suggest that the Nintendo Switch Pro may feature fitness tracking, presumably designed to work with health-related games like Ring Fit Adventure. Expectations in Nintendo Switch Pro – Improved screen quality to 1080p: Currently users are using the models with 6.2 inch 720p screen. This is a pretty poor experience compared to the competition. – Improved durability: One of the biggest minus points of previous Switch models is poor durability. The camera body will be scratched and peel off the paint quickly after a short time of use. In addition, the durability of the Joycon is not too high when they often have the phenomenon of the switch after about 1 year. 4K support in docking mode: The 4K console gaming community is growing day by day, and you can thank in part PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series for that. Unfortunately, the comparison with new generation consoles like the Switch is not appreciated because the image output to the TV is not as optimized as the competition. – Bluetooth support for third-party accessories: While the Switch currently has Bluetooth 4.1, this feature is only for wirelessly connecting Joy-Cons and Pro controllers. This means that to connect accessories like headphones, you need an adapter, which is very redundant and annoying on a machine that costs nearly 9 million dong. The reason why users want Nintendo to release the Switch Pro version Right now, the main reason to buy the Switch is to play Nintendo exclusive games. According to reports by many Reddit users, some third-party games such as Pillars of Eternity, Wasteland 2 and WWE 2K18 have experienced lag lag when playing games on Switch. The Switch’s hardware is simply not built to provide a good experience for third-party franchises. The Nintendo Switch is not meant to compete with the PS5 and Xbox Series X in terms of power. However, with a collection of new graphically heavy games coming this year that require a higher configuration to experience, so users are looking forward to a new version with superior configuration. Help users experience a series of games in the smoothest way.

today, PlayStation China officially announced that the “PlayStation China Conference 2021” will be live streamed online at 11:00 AM on April 29 (next Thursday), so stay tuned!

@SONY中国官微 reposted the above news as soon as possible: “I finally waited for you”. @MySony Club synchronized follow-up: “ The fewer the words, the bigger the matter, the editor’s warm reminder: remember to register as a My Sony member in advance, and make sure that the reserved phone number is real and valid. “

After the world premiere in November last year, many players are eagerly looking forward to when the PS5 National Bank version will arrive, and now it is finally fulfilled.

A few days ago, Sony China released a picture of the PS5 and the controller on its official Weibo, with a text: It is indispensable for you to make a black appointment.

It is reported that, The National Bank version of PS5 has been reviewed in December last year. The models are CFI-1009A and CFI-1009B, corresponding to the CD-ROM version and the digital version respectively. , The manufacturer is Hongfujin Precision Electronics (Yantai Foxconn), and the first certification date is December 10.

Given that the price of the US version of PS4 Pro and the PS5 digital version is the same, there are media speculations that the price of the PS5 National Bank digital version should be the same as the PS4 Pro National Bank version. That is 2999 yuan, the price of the CD-ROM version will probably increase by 800 yuan on this basis, which is about 3799 yuan.

But there are also speculations that With the current shortage of chips and limited production capacity, it is difficult for the Bank of China PS5 to maintain the price of around 3,000 yuan, and the price may increase with a high probability.

Some netizens said: “I have a hunch that it will be 3999, and the Bank of China can kill profiteers as long as it does not lock the area below 4000.” Some netizens said, “ The price should be pretty good, but I’m worried about locks and snapping up the air” .

It is worth mentioning that the overseas version of the next-generation console PS5 and Xbox Series X/S have been removed from the shelves in a large number of stores. At present, it is difficult to buy overseas version of PS5 console equipment on major e-commerce platforms.

As a result, the first batch of PS5 shipments of the Bank of China will inevitably follow a slow pace. You can prepare in advance for children’s shoes that you plan to buy.
