The console boasts a wide 7-inch OLED display which is a bump up from the 6.2-inch IPS LCD on the standard model. Although both the screens feature the same 1280×720 resolution.  

The company’s latest model also features a redesigned kickstand unlike the small strip on the standard model. The model has a wide flap that is sturdier and can be adjusted to multiple positions as needed.  

However, the company still hasn’t stepped forward to state what are the new changes other than stating that the enhanced audio from the bottom-firing stereo speakers over the standard model.
