OnePlus has officially confirmed that it is experimenting with a handheld gaming console, marking a potential expansion beyond its core smartphone business. The confirmation came from a company executive during a livestream, where an early concept sketch of the device was briefly shown. While still in its early stages, this is the first time OnePlus has publicly acknowledged the project.

Based on a statement by Nate Drake on resetera.com, it seems that Nintendo’s upcoming Switch Pro will come with 4k support and it’ll most likely be unveiled somewhere around the end of 2021. But that’s not all, it seems that that the handheld console is expected to come equipped with a feature called DLSS as well, but not much detail on that for now.

[UPDATE]: A Nintendo representatative has denied that the Nintendo Switch Exchange program has ever existed. However, in a statement to the Verge, the representative had also hinted that it may be possible to get your existing Nintendo Switch models replaced unofficially.
