The version tested was 1.1.0. Footage is from the game running in docked mode.

Docked mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest resolution found being 1440x816 and the lowest resolution found being 1024x576.

Portable mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest resolution found being 896x496 and the lowest resolution found being 640x368.

The dynamic resolution system doesn't seem to be based on GPU load or some sort of performance target. This can be seen emulated on PC with Ryujinx where the dynamic resolution seems to change to the same resolutions as the Switch does natively. Dropping the GPU clocks on a modded Switch also doesn't appear to trigger a change in resolution. Effects appearing on screen seems to trigger a drop in resolution.
