To watch in 4K and its companion video technology, HDR (high dynamic range), you must have a 4K TV and either an Xbox One X or Xbox One S console. When you set your console resolution to 4K UHD, everything on the console—Home, games, and apps—will display at 4K. Games on Xbox One S also get upscaled to 4K.
To set your resolution and upscale everything to 4K, double-tap the Xbox button to open the guide, go to Settings > All settings, then choose Display & sound > Video output. For TV resolution, select 4K UHD.
The Xbox One S has a GPU clock-speed of 914Mhz, which is 7.1 percent faster than the 853Mhz on the original Xbox One. Combined with some ESRAM bandwidth increases, that takes the compute performance up to 1.4 teraflops, up from the 1.31 teraflops in the original Xbox One.
Should you buy an Xbox One S in 2020? Best answer: Yes, absolutely. Xbox One S is an ideal, affordable, entry-level console in 2019, presenting access to Microsoft's full gaming portfolio for $300.
The Xbox One S All-Digital Edition is simply a One S game console without an optical drive for $50 less, but the trade-off isn't worth it. PCMag editors select and review products independently.
While the original Xbox One is technically capable of supporting 4K gaming and video, it has an HDMI 1.4a port, meaning it can only output 4K at 30Hz, which is very limiting. The Xbox One adds support for HDMI 2.0a, so it now supports proper 4K 60Hz output.
When it comes down to 4K TV, you do not need to pick up special HDMI cables. In other words, don't immediately toss out your old HDMI cables for the newest HDMI 2.0a or 2.1. The HDMI cable standard can impact color and resolution, but newer versions are not required for 4K TV.
You need the high-speed 2.0 HDMI cable (Xbox One S comes with one) to get the bandwidth required for 4K video at 60hz. The result of all these standards and requirements is that you have a relatively high chance of plugging a 4K device, like the Xbox One S, into a “4K” TV that won't produce a 4K or HDR signal.

The original Xbox One has no 4K capabilities, but the Xbox One S and Xbox One X can stream video and play games in 4K. The Xbox One X is the only model to have "native" 4K, however, which means that its 4K resolution is higher quality than the One S, which has "upscaled" 4K.

4K Blu-Ray Players Are Finally Worth Buying. When you compare this to a 4K Blu-ray which can support bitrates of up to 128Mbps and 100GB in size on a single disc, you start to understand why streaming services can not look as good. But it's not just about better picture quality, it's also about better sound.
