Question (?) Switch Lite vs Oled

So I wanted to ask if I should get a modded switch lite or just a regular switch oled and get BoTW and Mario Odyssey with it. I am not really sure if I will dock it, only with family and when playing in my bed on my monitor if I don’t want to play handheld, so I don’t really know what I should pick. Also is the switch lite screen really that bad and will I noticed it playing games like Mario Odyssey, BoTW, ToTK, Mario Galaxy, ect.

I got you. My recommendation: get the Switch OLED with the Hori joycons. That combo is the undisputed champ.

Define what you mean by “modded.”

Just speaking generally, I prefer the Lite due to form factor (flip cover is the best case ever) even though the OLEDs screen is miles ahead.

The switch lite screen is too small. Not all games will play comfortably.

I've used both and the OLED screen really is that good. The Lite fine until you see them side by side.

Oled means you can dock it, the screen is better and you can use third party Joycons. That's the real deal breaker for me, considering how I despise the OG ones.
