I can see pixels on the LCD... OLED is definitely better.

The LCD black level is poor and colors aren't as deep. Skip to the end of the video to Hot Shots Golf when they both are on the green. The green looks really washed out on the LCD version in my opinion.

Is LCD cheaper to make? Both look good I had an oled vita it was good cant really tell from a video

Eh. Graphics never really matter to me, so it's fine. This is comparable to the difference of 3DS XL screens vs the original.

No doubt that the OLED is richer and deeper when it comes to colors. The LCD is a bit washed out in comparison. However, I don't think it would make much difference when you're playing. I would be fine with the LCD.

The lcd is cheaper, more battery-saving and more reliable and durable. After 3 years the Oled quality will be going backwards while the lcd has the same quality after 10 years...

Early in the development of OLED displays,
the lifetime (defined as the time it takes for
the display to reach 50% of the original
luminance) was lower than typical LCD
lifetimes. However, with tremendous
progress in materials development, OLED
displays have lifetimes comparable to or
better than LCDs. Many OLED displays
currently on the market have lifetimes
exceeding 50,000 hr. In addition, lifetimes
for OLED materials being developed by
Cambridge Display Technology, Eastman
Kodak Company, Idemitsu Kosan, Novaled,
Universal Display and others have lifetimes
2-3 times greater than typical LCDs. Some
are in products today and more are expected
to reach the market within two years.

So the OLED Association don't have to worry then.
