I keep hearing that the OLED version is much better not only screenwise, but also the overall experience. Is it wort paying double the price (second handed)?

The oled version has some changes to the internal chassis due to a the thinner screen which allowed for a larger battery which is a big win. It also apparently has improvements to the ram causing better performance and a smaller cpu die.

Gamers nexus did a comparison and found it is quite a bit better than the original.
