In the last few hours, some Spanish editors have received an important confirmation from Sony: PlayStation 5, the next generation console of the Japanese giant, will not support 1440p (QHD) resolution. This emphasis by Sony became necessary after the appearance, in FAQ section of the BenQ website (which among other things produces monitors), a message clearly indicating that the console is capable of supporting this resolution. Well, it was a mistake on the part of the multinational based in Taipei (Taiwan).
It now remains to understand how PlayStation 5 will handle the situation when it finds itself connected to a monitor that boasts this specific resolution. We don't know if the console will “switch” the resolution 1080p Full HD or if, instead, through a downscale, the resolution will automatically be raised to 4K. Not all TV models (not even all those made by BenQ) provide for downscaling, so we will have to wait for any details from those who, having a TV with a resolution of 1440p, decide to share them. By boasting such a TV in your living room you won't have to worry about the question of HDMI cable included in the box of PlayStation 5. Even if it is not of type 2.1 (the question is not yet clear), know that this new "model" is designed to support resolutions in 4K a 120fps.
According to the latest news, it appears that PlayStation 5 will boast a free storage space of 667 GB and Phil Spencer he had fun, a few days ago, to tease Sony, declaring that Xbox Series X / S would be a lower-impact investment. The official launch of the PlayStation 5 is set on date 19st November, but it now seems increasingly certain that some big chains like Mediaworld will anticipate console shipments in the next days. Finally, in case you missed them, please follow the next link to take a look at the technical specifications of the new Sony console.
