I had the usual 3DS for 2 years, I decided to change to XL a couple of months ago. Overall, the impressions are very positive. I don’t notice any “pixelization”, the battery has also become better (usual 3DS - by a deuce with a plus, here - by 4 with a minus). The only pity is that the screen as glare, and continues to glare. Any sunlight is a problem. Well, in general - an excellent device with many wonderful games for almost every taste. I use Vita much more often.
