Switch 2 Gains TV-Synced VRR for Smoother Docked Play

Nintendo has enabled docked VRR on Switch 2, allowing the TV to match the game's frame rate for smoother motion in TV mode. The feature, previously handheld-only, requires a firmware update to the Switch 2 Dock and works when both the software and TV support VRR. The update also adds a handheld boost toggle, upgrades to the Mii editor, and enables transferring the entire system to another Switch 2. This lands ahead of new games and Zelda-themed hardware teased at a recent Direct.

Auto SR Brings 1440p-like Upscaling to ROG Xbox Ally X in Docked Mode

Microsoft's Auto Super Resolution (Auto SR) is arriving on the ROG Xbox Ally X, delivering 1440p-like visuals at higher frame rates when docked by running the upscaler on the device’s neural processing unit; note that the vanilla Ally X without an NPU won't support Auto SR. The update also brings docked-mode improvements and broader Game Bar enhancements, including TV-only default output for docked HDR, ALLM/VRR on supported TVs, console-style display settings, a Game Bar widget, and improved library customization and input handling, with the Auto SR rollout to Xbox Insiders starting April 30.
