New PS VITA LED compared to PS Vita OLED. (Screenshot)

My biggest problem with the new model, BY FAR, is the fact that it is not a single block.
The screen looks like it can be popped out.
I could live with the LCD display if the new vita looked just like the previous one.
So nope. Iguess I have to buy a spare OLED vita. =(

It's wider and taller by 1.6mm.
Yeah, this was my first thought too.
I for one have no issues with It being bigger... but im also 6'4" tall

It's in motion you'll see the biggest difference between the two screens. Especially 60fps games.
Comparing screenshots of two different screens and then viewing those screenshots on our LCD monitors makes this thread a little silly really.

That second pic is a lot more flattering for the new model. I wonder why.
I don't know, it's just my impression based on the pics in the OP.

If there's anything I can take from these two images, it's that it seems colorful games will suffer the most on the transition to LCD. Games with a duller palette will be fine/good enough.
I'm still gonna wait for a personal hands on comparison.

The new screen looks better here. Probably the angle?
or the fact you are using an lcd monitor to view it? It's like saying 4K sucks because you saw a comparison shot on your 1080 tv.
Trust me, OLED is superior in every way.

So much is wrong with this post
It's only a few centimeters bigger on the surface, but it's thinner and lighter.
Wtf does "still gloss" mean?
And screen differences shouldn't be as drastic as they are in the OP.
We don't even know what kind of LCD they're using. There are several kinds of LCDs that outclass OLEDs. Granted, this probably isn't the case since Sony wanted to save money, but I wouldn't go talking out of my ass like that.

If Sony wants to scare fence sitters into buying old one asap they are doing good job

Maybe you people not seeing much difference just don't have good monitors or don't have them calibrated or something.
Original Vita looks vastly better in that Ragnarok Odyssey shot. Not even close. Uncharted one doesn't look as bad at least (still not as good, but it's hard to really say much without seeing them in person).

Doesn't look that bad in this shot. I think I'll get a 2nd OLED Vita for the future

That's the nature of the beast w/ OLED. Galaxy S III has that same issue. It doesn't really bother me, but I have noticed them from time to time.

It has a bigger surface. That's bad.
It still uses glossy plastic instead of being matte like it should have been from the beginning. That's bad.
Screen differences will probably be even bigger, especially in motion. That's also bad.

The OG Vita screen does look better (though we might need a better comparison).
But those awful start/select buttons on the OG Vita gives the new Vita an advantage.

That and the decomposition of the organic part of the organic light-emitting diode. But it is still leagues better than LCD.

Happy to have the OLED model, but the LCD model isn't all that bad either.
Nobody seems to complain about the 3DS's screen so I don't see the problem. Want OLED? Then buy the current unit. Want LCD? Keep sitting on the fence.

Is going to break. OLED is fragile to jinxing.

In terms of what matters for picture quality (black level, color saturation, motion response, viewing angles), there is no such thing as an LCD that matches OLED, let alone outclass it. It's pure fiction.
Can LCD get brighter? Sure. Can't beat LCD in its ability to burn your retinas off.

I love how OLED defenders are refusing to see the green tint to all the dark areas of the Uncharted comparison.
New screen looks fine judging by those vids. It's not as immediately impressive as the OLED screen, I'm still fence sitting on getting the new or OG.
people sometimes think LCD looks better because they are comparing the low ppi/resolution of vita to a high ppi/resolution iphone/ipad lcd.
