Switch 2 may not have VRR in TV mode
One of the technical surprises console Nintendo Switch 2 there was a promise of support VRR (variable refresh rate) and HDR when connected to a TV. However, ResetEra users have noticed that VRR mention disappeared from official Nintendo websites in the US and Canada. Previously, the description included support for HDR, VRR, and up to 120 fps, but now it only talks about HDR and 120 fps - VRR is no longer mentioned.
The UK version of the site still retains the original description, which is causing confusion. Nintendo has made no public statements and there is no official clarification yet. All this adds to the confusion. concerns, that VRR support in docked mode may have been dropped at the last minute, possibly due to hardware limitations of the conversion DisplayPort to HDMI.
In this case, in portable mode The console continues to support variable refresh rate thanks to built-in technology NVIDIA G-SYNC, implemented via DisplayPort 1.4. This means that image smoothness can be maintained in manual use only, while in TV connection mode on 4K screens, stability may be reduced without VRR.
An additional strange moment was the confirmation that cloud saves в Breath of the Wild и Tears of the Kingdom are not supported. Players will be able to transfer saves from the first Switch, but they cannot be saved to the cloud, despite having a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. All this forms mixed impression from the preparation of the Switch 2 release, which has not yet been officially presented, but is already accompanied by controversial changes.
