• The OLED model has slightly better performance due to a newer version of the same APU. So it’s not just the screen that is better.

      That said, I have a very early LCD model I love. The OLED is not a big enough upgrade for me to consider buying it. But if I were buying new I would get an OLED.

      I own the LCD model (bought long before OLED edition existed) and it brings me joy on the train.

      Sure it would be nice with a better screen, bigger battery, and slightly lighter device. But it’s not something you absolutely need.

      Whenever it’s worth it for you is a very personal thing that depends highly on what you prioritise and how much money you have.

      No. The OLED has many improvements and the biggest of them is the battery. We have both of them and the OLED battery is almost 50% better than the LCD one. It is also lighter, which is a plus in my opinion.
