Hardware Switch has no 1080P option.

You probably have a 720p tv. The tv is simply downgrading the 1080p from the ps4 to 720p. My tv does the same thing and has the switch at stuck at a Max of 720p. Go look up your tv model online and check and make sure its native resolution is 720p. If your tv has a native resolution of 1080p this is an issue that I haven't heard of until now.

I noticed that when I go to my settings in system menu, I don't have a option for 1080P. Does anyone else have any problems or knowledge of this?

did the TV box said FULL HD or HD READY? this is the first indicator about being 1080p or 720p
my tv is HD READY 720p, but does downscale\support 1080p resolutions

As others have said, your TV is probably 720p.

idk but i think that sometimes the HDMI cable restricts resolution, i can't 1080p from my lappy to TV, both of them are 1920x1080 but i only get 720p max on my tv

There's no such thing as a "720p-only" HDMI cable. Either the TV has a broken EDID or your laptop has broken drivers.

My tv is a vizio smart tv made in 2014, is not 720P TV.

One of my friends had that problem (but is max resolution was 480p ) on others TVs the switch worked fine at 1080. We research a lot and it was the console not detecting the proper resolution of the tv. It was a compatibility issue, was fixed on the Last update (at least for him)

What's the model number?

GerbilSoft knows what he's talking about hence the two likes for his posts, my 2017 Vizio TV has also has a EDID problem with my PS3 where when the PS3 is set to Full Range RGB the TV does not adjust the HDMI Black Level to match the RGB settings from the PS3 (there's no HDMI Black Level setting on my TV).

I've contacted Vizio's support and they've forward my message for the problem with my model to their engineers, I'm just hopeful they can fix the problem with a future firmware update since with the Switch my TV has not problems with Full Range RGB even though it only displays 4:2:2 but accepts 4:4:4 and coverts it before diplaying the image on the TV (same goes for PS4, Full Range gets displayed correctly converted to 4:2:2 which is still better than 4:2:0 or Limited RGB).

They definitly still have 720p TVs, even at larger sizes, such as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017WM085K/ref=twister_B06ZYHZVNK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

They may have marketed it as HD or that it accepts 1080p input but they like to use that for 720p with "Full HD" or similar being used for 1080p.

Do you have a game like Breath of the Wild suspended? It could be that because Breath of the Wild can't reach 1080p that playing such a game while trying to adjust this setting bottlenecks you so that you don't set it to 1080p and then wonder why your game is only 900p at best.

but 720p is bellow the 900 something p it peaks to, so it would need 1080p

Then there's something wrong with your TV, dude. The TV I use sets it up with 1080p just fine *shrug*.

There are 720p Vizio smart televisions from 2014. I don't think you can really troubleshoot the issue until you post the model number and confirm the television's resolution.

 

[Psi-hate]

I mean, I have a 720p TCL Roku TV, but it still displays the option "1080p" despite having to downscale it to 720p. That's just my TV though, not sure about other models or brands.

You could try hooking up your TV to your computer and using MonitorInfoView to see the exact resolutions your monitor claims to support. If 1920x1080 isn't reported that could be the reason.
