Windows 11’s blue light filter will work on next-gen Snapdragon chip

If you’re running Windows 10 or 11, you’re probably familiar with Night Light, the system feature that reduces the amount of blue light in the screen display. The idea is that by filtering blue light, you might be able to sleep better and ease on eye strain.

However, if you have one of those newer computers with Snapdragon chips, you won’t be able to run Night Light on an external display. Why? It’s due to hardware limitations in Arm-based chips. Specifically, it’s “a limitation of the Qualcomm Oryon chipset” as confirmed by Dell.

Fortunately, according to Windows Latest, these limitations will disappear in the next-generation Arm-based chip to be unveiled in September. For now, if you want a blue light filter on an external display while using a Windows 11 PC with a Snapdragon chip, use a third-party app.

That’s just one reason for growing anticipation over the Snapdragon X Elite 2, the powerful chip from Qualcomm that’s expected to end up in new computers from Dell starting next year.
