  1. Purchased 4k movie shows up as HD in description.


    I bought Sonic the hedgehog in 4k. When my card was charged for the movie it shows that I paid for 4k in the receipt that I got in my email. When I go into the movie details it says that it's HD, not 4k or UHD. Usually when I play 4k or movies in HDR a
    notification pops up on my tv that says HDR. In this case it doesn't with Sonic the hedgehog. It plays in HD not 4k. I contacted Xbox and tried everything to solve the issue and there seems to be no fix to it.

    4K movies

    Hi,

    Sorry about that but what movies ? Cause 4K is not yet available for all the store...

    You have to get the option UHD in the description and be sure to select that one NOT HD or SD ( by the way 14.99 per movie should be the HD one… UHD its in average 24.99 or 29.99 per movie… ).

    So double check your purchase history > https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders ( display all dates and contents ) , you should see what you purchase exactly
    ( HD / UHD or SD ).

    If it was the UHD edition, call Xbox helpdesk to check your Xbox one with an agent > https://support.xbox.com/contact-us

    If it was the HD, you probably made a little error during the order...

    Does the Series X console automatically upscale 1080p movie discs to 4k?

    No, it doesn't do that. The movie will show in 1080p. Only 4K movies will show in 4K.

    The new update

    most likely the game is not full 4k and is some sort of upscaled image. so wont show the badge. they cant advertise a game being 4K ultra hd if it is not and uses tricks to get there, besides that label could be there a for movies and it just shows under
    games too. or as the store is going to be used on the Series X where some games will be actual 4K.

    Need help deciding which xbox one consoles to buy for gaming and 4k- BluRays?

    Hello,

    Xbox One does not support 4K movies or games.

    Xbox One S, supports 4K movies.

    Xbox One X
    supports 4K games and movies.

    If you have 4K TV I recommend Xbox One X. If you have only Full HD TV, so Xbox One X can switch to Full HD mode. All the more power it can put into games.

    There are over 130 games that are for the Xbox One X.

    Xbox One X

    I recently upgraded from the S to the X, and I personally feel that speed and graphics are better. As others have mentioned the X plays 4K content and displays in native 4K resolution. Where as, the S can display up to 1440p resolution for games and 4k resolution
    for Movie/Video Content (IE 4K UHD Blu-ray disc, content on the Netflix app, etc).

    TLDR:

    If you wanna play games and watch movies/shows in 4K you'll want the X.

    Otherwise I would say the S if you just wanna watch 4K movies or shows.
