Not able to see retina display resolution 2880x1800 in big sur

Hi,

I have a 15" 2019 MacBook Pro. After the release of macOS Big Sur, I have upgraded to it from Catalina.

After upgrading, I am not able to find full display resolution (2880×1800) which used to be displayed in Catalina. But About this mac does show available resolution of 2880x1800.

Pl find attached resolution in Big Sur. I have selected the highest resolution which is 1920x1200

Any help in this regard is appreciated.

Thanks...

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.0

Check if you have same issue in safe mode.

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262

Note: Safe mode prevents your Mac from loading certain software as it starts up, including login items, system extensions not required by macOS, and fonts not installed by macOS. It also does a basic check of your startup disk, similar to using First Aid in Disk Utility. And it deletes some system caches, including font caches and the kernel cache, which are automatically created again as needed.

You may need to Contact Apple Support, to get it fixed.
