    Series X was promoted as the 4k system and Series S as the 1440p system.

      Similar to how the PS5 had “8K” on the box; it’s only technically capable of that for the sake of videos, but most games tend to go a bit smaller resolution for practical rendering.

        No, early S/X marketing said that the games would be identical on both, just that X games would be 4k and S games 1440p.

        The specifications of the HDMI ports are the same. A Series S has no problems putting out super high definition 2D games.

          I mean…I think yes, at some point a marketing department made that claim, which is unfortunate because that’s ultimately far from reality and most people know it. The claims made of the Series X and PS5 are also usually exaggerated, because most salespeople can get away with prefixing any claim with the words “up to”.
