RefurbStore's independent expert review
Overall Score: 3.5/5
Review Overview:
The New Nintendo 3DS is a substantial upgrade from the original Nintendo 3DS with a stronger processor, better 3D technology, and an additional control stick. However, it's not without its shortcomings. While the device's improvements make for a more enjoyable gaming experience, its onboard camera and battery life leave room for improvement.
Price: 3.5/5
The New Nintendo 3DS is pricier than its predecessor, making it a considerable investment for handheld gaming. However, with the added features and improvements, many may find the price justified.
Camera: 2.5/5
The camera on the New Nintendo 3DS, while a neat feature, is not its strong point. Photos appear grainy and lack detail, especially in low-light settings. It's sufficient for the augmented reality games it offers, but those looking for a high-quality camera may be disappointed.
Power: 4.5/5
The New Nintendo 3DS boasts a stronger processor than its predecessor, leading to faster download speeds, quicker loading times, and the ability to handle more demanding games. This is a significant improvement that enhances overall user experience.
