PS5's VRR support is currently one of the most-awaited innovations from Sony. The variable refresh rate feature can enhance the gaming experience of PlayStation 5 owners since it can remove screen tearing on display.
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 20: Attendees walk by the Sony PlayStation booth at the 2019 GDC Game Developers Conference on March 20, 2019 in San Francisco, California. The GDC runs through March 22.
This is just one of the benefits that VRR can offer once it is integrated into PS5 consoles. Right now, the lucky Sony product receiving this feature is the Bravia XR TV lineup.

But, some speculations claimed that the arrival of the variable refresh rate feature on the Bravia XR televisions is a sign that Sony will also do the same with its PS5 tech.
Although this is the case, many people said that PS5 still doesn't have VRR. They explained that PlayStation 5 consoles would only have this feature if the manufacturer releases a system-level update for PS5.
No it isn't. This is just an update for the TV. The PS5 doesn't have VRR currently. The PS5 will only do VRR when the PS5 has a system level update to do it.
