    Gamestop says Xbox One S will not work on a regular HDTV


    I called Gamestop and they told me the new Xbox One S would not work on a regular HDTV and that is had a special hdmi connector and would only work on 4k TV's. I thought this was a bit absurd, but wanted to double check here.

    thank you

    :)

    Compatibility

    360 controllers are not compatible with the One.

    The Xbox One S is just smaller than a regular One and has 4k capabilities. Everything that works with a regular One will work with a One S.

    Do I need a 4K cable TV to use the Xbox One s system

    The Xbox One requires at least a 720p HDTV or monitor for display.

    Basically, if the TV has an HDMI port, your Xbox One S
    should work just fine on it.

    For me, I'm running my Xbox One S on a standard 1080p TV without a problem.

    All the talk about 4K is just an extra feature that the Xbox One S supports; if you have a 4K HDTV, the Xbox One S will be able to upscale the content to 4K resolution. It's not necessarily required to have
    4K, but it sure would be nice.

    I don't know what they are aware off but it is false the Xbox one S can run 4k or 1080p same goes with HDR it is optional to change the resolution go to settings - display & sound - video output - TV resolution - 4k - 1080p

    HAHAHA! I laugh at Gamestops lack of knowledge! The Xbox One S supports 720, 1080, and 4k resolutions. Just plug it in to any modern HDTV and it should automatically detect the tv's capabilities as far as resolution, hdr, stereoscopic 3d, and fps are concerned.

    Hey there WARRIOR I M,

    Can you please elaborate on what's going on exactly? The Xbox One S will upscale to 4K as long as you have a compatible 4K HDTV. What seems to not be working exactly? Can you please provide the make and model of your HDTV as well as the content that's not
    working for you? Are you playing this content on an Xbox One S console and using a 4K TV?

    Let us know!
