Freesync, auto low latency support coming to Xbox One

A number of Xbox One enhancements including Freesync and low latency support are on the way, Microsoft recently detailed.

“Antal Tungler from AMD announced that Xbox One S and Xbox One X will support variable refresh rate on AMD Radeon FreeSync displays,” a post on Xbox Wire reads. “Freesync technology helps get rid of tearing and stuttering while gaming, enabling the display and Xbox One to work together to create a smooth and seamless gaming experience. Freesync allows for a supported TV or monitor to synchronize its refresh rate with your console.”

Moreover, Xbox One will also begin to support auto low latency mode on supported TV sets including select models from Samsung. The mode will automatically switch those TVs to low-latency mode, which reduces input lag.

The above enhancements will be accompanied by changes to the console’s “Share to Twitter” feature and its Edge browser. They’ll head to Australian Xbox One units over this autumn.
