Xbox One X and Xbox One S Will Soon Get 1440p Resolution Support

4.8
We had been told previously that the Xbox One X would be getting support for 1440p resolution soon; now, it looks like not only the Xbox One X, but also the Xbox One S will be getting support for the upgraded resolution- and they will both be getting it shortly, too.

Microsoft’s Xbox Partner Group Program Manager, Kevin Gammill has confirmed that both consoles will be getting support for 1440p resolution- at least for members of the Preview Program. Presumably, it will be rolled out to everyone else shortly afterwards, too.

So, for those of you who use 1440p (or higher resolution than HD) screens, it looks like your Xbox One X and Xbox One S will soon be supporting output in the resolutions natively. As someone who has an Xbox One S, this actually comes as a pleasant surprise to me- I was certainly not expecting this, and it should make video content look sharper and better on my screen.

2019 That's hella hd. See everything


Same as the xbox one x with a 4k TV. Literally feels like you're looking into another persons life when playing games on 4K settings.

Xbox One X can already top 1440p but still a great setting to have.

1440p support is great. Now they just need to support ultrawide / 21:9 monitors.

This is awesome! I finally get to experience something better than 1080p!

Mario350 1440p is more logical for a console then 4k, 4k takes a high end gpu well 1440p doesnt need a power house gpu, so why wouldnt they do 1440p instead of the useless checkerboarding 4k? but hey im glad 1440p is being added as a resolution


They are just widening support, 1440p now I'd becoming the new 1080p so it's in their interest to make users want sharper images and gives them a reason to upgrade their hardware ie TV/console
