AMD to Bring FSR 4 to Handhelds by End of 2026
WHY IT MATTERS
This development is significant for handheld gamers, as FSR 4 technology can enhance gaming performance and provide a smoother experience.
What happened
AMD has announced plans to bring its framerate-enhancing FSR 4 technology to handheld devices by the end of 2026. This development comes after AMD initially reserved the right to not support older handhelds.
However, AMD's consumer chip boss Jack Huynh has stated that the technology will be expanded to handhelds. It is unclear whether existing handhelds will be supported or if a new device will be required, as AMD is releasing a new FSR 4-capable chip.
The new chip will enable the use of FSR 4 technology, which was first introduced to external graphics cards.
