    Xbox Series S not using my 4k tv


    So I went through all the troubleshooting and my tv is 4k and Xbox is not using it. I have a Toshiba FireTV 4k and it's not the TV as I have checked. I'm using the cable given for the Xbox. Anyone else fixed this issue??

    :)

    Xbox seriesses i geuss

    the series s support up to 1440p but to use that resolution you would need a monitor not a tv as most if not all tv's support 1080p or 4k.

    series s will upscale to 4k though.

    Xbox Series X|S and lower resolutions

    Does the 1080p support go for both the Series S and Series X, or just the Series S?
    1080p is supported by both Series X / S,

    However if your only playing at 1080p and have no plan's of upgrading to a 4K TV / Monitor, The Xbox Series S would be recommended as is a 1080p / 1440p gaming console and you would save £/$200, than getting the Series X, as that is a 4K gaming console and
    you would never get to use the full potential of it if used on a 1080p TV / Monitor.

    Xbox Series S Graphics performances

    Well no your best would be 1440p by 120hz if your tv would support that

    Most games will only support 1080p depending on the tv

    You gotta remember the series s is NOT a 4k console

    It only upscales movies and TV shows to 4k not games

    If you force it to 4k you will drop frames like crazy

    Series x and xbox one xis 4k native at 60 and 30hz

    Series s and below are 1440p max with recommended 90hz max

    Xbox Series S - What are your thoughts ?

    So, we finally got to see the next gen "little brother" Series S. It's kept to a design not far from our current One S, and i my opinion looks pretty good. Properly not one that i am going to pick up. I will definitely go Series X all the way.
    But a nice cost efficient alternative and a great entry model for new xbox players.

    What are peoples thoughts ? and are you thinking about picking it up ?
    The way i see it, i don't see the Series S as an entry model, it depends on what the resolution of TV / Monitor is being used, because the Xbox Series X is more aimed at 4K gaming and the Xbox Series S is more aimed at 1080p / 1440p gaming,

    For someone who does not have / own or does not plan to upgrade to a 4K TV / Monitor, then the Series S is perfect choice to get and will save you money by not paying for something that you'll never get to see or use the full potential of the Series X,

    It make no sense to me why anyone would buy a Series X just to play at 1080p, but there will be people out there who will do just that, to me, that's just wasted money in my opinion,

    My thoughts are...

    If your gaming at 4K, go with the Xbox Series X,

    If your gaming at 1080p / 1440p, go with the Xbox Series S,

    I have a 4K TV and a 4K Gaming Monitor so for me, I'm getting the Xbox Series X.

    Xbox series X

    I dont think anyone knows the answer.

    I am checking the amazon store almost everyday but even the product page is not there.

    The price is 20K more than Series S. So, roughly 55 to 60 K.

    Note : My personal suggestion is to get the Series S (which is already available). If you already have a 4K TV, then X makes sense. But, if you are currently using a 1080 p (which is what I am using with my current Xbox One), then, Series S is good for the
    next 2 to 3 years. After that, 4K TV prices will also come down, and Xbox Series X prices will also come down.
