What is the hardware doing, as I said, simply scaling down the x2 image to what the x1 image is; or literally using the x2 graphic ? You will need to place the same dimensions of the 1x image on the 2x image. In other words, you need to scale it down in the mark up or CSS. ? Tom

As well my images are PNG. I don't use the legacy Save for Web; I prefer Export As; formally Export Assets in Photoshop, which doesn't offer any control for compression for PNG images. Blurring parts of an image, it can be beneficial; not for mobile, where the screen is small to begin with.
