I must say right away that I don't speak English well. I apologize for possible errors and misunderstandings.

I am using Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS on Huawei MateBook 13.
I can't solve the problem with incorrect resolution display and tearing in any way.
I'll get to the point:

$ neofetch

...
Resolution: 3456x2304 
...
CPU: Intel i5-8265U (8) @ 3.900GH
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce MX250
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 620
...

But the resolution of my screen is 2160x1440. The same thing when running xrandr:

$ xrandr

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3456 x 2304, maximum 16384 x 16384

DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

It seems to me that the system incorrectly perceives the resolution of my screen, as a result of which the Intel GPU can not cope with render such a picture, as a result of which there is tearing.
I would be happy to use only NVIDIA GPU, but when I use only NVIDIA, the battery runs out very quickly.
For a complete understanding, tearing is about like this.
This happens when dragging windows, watching videos, and even when scrolling through web pages.

Correct me if I'm wrong somewhere. I will be glad of your help.

In your Nvidia X Server Setting follow these steps -

  1. Navigate to X Server Display Configuration
  2. You can change your resolution here
  3. Click on Adavanced settings
  4. Select "Force Composition Pipeline" // This will fix screen tearing
  5. Select "Force Full Compostion Pipeline" // Try both and select what works best for you
  6. Apply and save your configuration
