So I own a PS5 Pro, and for the moment, am planning to make the switch to PS6 once that comes out.
I own a 2021 Samsung QN90A 50 Neo QLED TV that is slowely starting to show it's age.
Now I read that in 2027 the first TVs supporting HDMI 2.2 will start coming out. I have been looking into the specs of HDMI 2.2, and I am wondering if it is even worth it to wait for it if I'm gonna be using a PS6. I feel like even a PS6 is still within limits of HDMI 2.1.
I mostly play vast open world games. So mostly high graphics instead high framerates.
What are your views on this? Worth waiting for?
(First time posting something so I hope I'm doing this right.)
HDMI 2.2 will use a new enhanced VRR which Project Helix and PS6 will probably support. The current HDMI 2.1 VRR implementation isn't good, which is what the PS5 uses, probably because Sony TVs only support that standard.
The Xbox Series consoles support HDMI VRR & FreeSync Premium Pro with TVs that support FreeSync having better VRR.
So while Sony may never support Freesync (even though it's built into every AMD GPU) it will support the new HDMI VRR standard.
Frame generation will certainly be more of a thing next-gen but I don't know how much of a focus there will be on going beyond 120FPS any time soon. I personally wouldn't wait if you're eyeing up a substantial TV upgrade now.
