Xbox Series X 4K interface renders at 1080p

Today Microsoft lifted the embargo on the publication of final previews Xbox series x, which gave journalists the opportunity to share new information about the console.

So, edition VentureBeat published the results of the temperature test Xbox Series X (she passed it perfectly), and a team of technical experts Digital foundry at the same time confirmed that the interface of the new console in its current state is rendered in a resolution similar to the Xbox One X, that is, in 1080p, although the Xbox Series X is being promoted as a 4K device

What is the reason for this decision is not clear, but the DF editor John Linneman believes that Microsoft may have aimed to reserve more console resources for games. Users immediately remembered that the company planned to raise the dashboard resolution to 4K on the Xbox One X, for which 1 GB of RAM was allocated in the console, but the developers asked the company to leave it for games, and she listened to them.

Digital Foundry words also confirmed Jeff Grubb from the VentureBeat portal, but noted that in the guidelines for the embargo, Microsoft asks not to focus on the user interface elements, since it is not final and will be updated before launch. Perhaps the dashboard resolution is still pulled up for release

At the same time, it is already known that on the PlayStation 5 the interface will be rendered in 4K and support HDR. After today’s presentation of the UI, the set-top box was told about this in Eurogamer.
