    My daughter has a Series S and a 1080p HDR TV, why won’t the Series S/X allow HDR? I don’t understand why it has to be set to 4K to allow HDR when there are 1080p HDR TV’s out there? Any plans for this to change?

    Xbox One S and HDR

    Ummm cause only 4k tvs support hdr

    Even on a ps4 pro

    Hate to burst your bubble but hdr is only meant for 4k tv

    Hdr sets res at 1440p or.higher and allows.for advance color control.only available on 4k res

    The only things that play in hdr on xbox one s is 4k bluray and 4k streaming

    If you tried this on a 1080p tv you will have blurry lines instead of a good picture

    Because you are trying to squeeze too much res into a 1080p

    Hdr onlybworks when the tv and player support HDR and 1080p tvs dont

    Neither dods a ps4 slim or originsl

    Only pro units do and xbox ome s and .x
    That's not strictly true. There are some 1080P TV's that support HDR, but not many of them. HDR is for colour output, it has nothing to do with the picture resolution of the content. Not sue why you think it would have 'blurry lines'?

    Also need to correct you on few more things here:

    HDR for the Xbox One S - if you're using a 4K display - is not limited to UHD Blu-ray or Streaming services, it can also be used in Xbox One games that have HDR support.

    All PS4 consoles support HDR, it's not locked behind the Pro console. They will also do HDR at 1080P.

    But to the original poster:

    There isn't just one type of HDR

    Likely the true reason for HDR not being supported for the Xbox One S and 1080P is one of technology. There isn't just one type of HDR, there are several, HDR8, HDR10 and Dolby Vision to name a few. Those few 1080P displays with HDR, likely only support
    the early HDR standards. Sure, it's HDR, but good HDR?

    1080P HDR support

    Hi,

    Only the Xbox One S and the One X support HDR. HDR isn't linked to resolution, so, technically, HDR can work at 1080P. However, in the interest of not confusing consumers, Microsoft have locked HDR to 4K displays only, which is mostly industry standard
    anyway. I'm pretty sure even 1440P doesn't support HDR on One S or One X either.

    I understand that HDR is not related to resolution and that most 1080P displays that do support it are less common that 4K displays, but there are definitely models that do, mine included.

    I can play PS4 games on 1080P with HDR but not XB1 games.. I don't understand why MS isn't supporting HDR alongside 1080P ?
    Sure its a good point but its proberly about demand. There isnt really any 1080p TVS on the market that support HDR so why would they. However if you would like too see this then you can leave feedback and ideas here feedback.xbox.com
