I won't be pixel counting the UI when I'm playing Elder Scrolls 6
shit, 4 years from now your eyesight could be worse than it is now. You may be seeing double the amount of pixels anyway

The new store is a massive improvement

How so? The pages load slower and like I said no full screen videos/trailers.

Much easier to find stuff, see different versions of games, actually navigate the different tabs for each game, and looks way better.

As long as the UI works I wouldn't give a fuck even if it looks like a spreadsheet made with Excel.

if you scroll up on a game page you get the full screen videos

the amount of power needed for a 4K dashboard is negligible

Let's make a command line console!
That being said, I don't care for the picture in picture feature, nor 90% of what a console os does, I'd be very happy with a menu over a black background.

For the people that say it doesn't matter at all......would you care if MS made the UI 720p, but gave developers another 512 MBs of RAM? Like why stop at 1080?

Wow. That’s a great question. Didn’t they start current gen at 720p graphics anyway?

I would even go as far and say 480p if it frees up resources for games.
the console UI's graphical fidelity is the by far least important thing about a console.

Having an XSX and PS5, the XSX UI looks bad compared to the PS5. On the PS5 I feel like I'm spending less time in menus to find content compared to the XSX.
At least both systems finally have the horsepower to run their UI's without much menu lag.

Still caring andStill not caringbut Cyberpunk looks best on Series consoles .. and it’s about games, right?
great example of a game you chose there, but sure it does look best on it (they even give you pauses in the gameplay to marvel at stills), but hey when you feel desperate to claim any win for warring purposes... .

What do you find so hard about the Xbox UI?. I find it extremely hard to lose myself in menus on it even if I tried.

In general it has better options (more fine grained I mean) and the HDR calibration screens and the final comparison image is better designed / gives better feedback than on PS5.
It has lots of options and menus and sub menus though: they expose a lot of options/configs but the hierarchy could stand to be simplified somewhat.
It does mix the social aspect, LIVE and GP promotions, and your own content in sometimes a bit more confusing mix than on PS5 where it is more focused around your games.
The Xbox UI feels more of a design by committee UI/UX where marketing (acquisition [conversion to Gold and GPU] and retention) screamed at every opportunity for slots to insert promotions and user attention grabbing content. The groups that manage/run GamePass also pressed for screen real estate and nobody wanted to be below the fold (whatever requires the user to scroll) nor in a separate sub section.

Problem is once u use the ps5 UI, xsx ui feels like a downgrade,it should not feel like that, ms really need to put a 4k UI soon.

The PS5 buries functions and features under layers of menus. I would rather have ease of use over something being nice to look at. But if I had what I wanted I would rather get both. Make it nice to look at and easy to use. Sony menus have been cumbersome for the past 2 generations.

At least the Xbox UI is stable. I'd take 1080p and stable over the delicate PS5 that you don't know if it'll crash or not when you click on an icon.

Ummm.......yes you can. Once you click on the game, just press up and the trailer will play full screen.

Why surface this thread when MS said they would fix the UI resolution post launch?

Because ps5 cant update the ui, stop being a fanboy, its great u like the xbox ui, it would be even better in 4k and hdr, it just dose not make sence to have 4k console with 1080p ui,

This. I also have a weird issue with my C9 on 120Hz where it flickers on the Series X menu a bit when the TV is in PC mode for that input. Fine in games but a bit annoying with the menu. In fairness it also does it in the Destiny 2 character screen so I wonder if it's more a TV/console communication issue when there's lots of static items on screen.

I went to plug in my controller into my Xbox yesterday to charge, and since my head was nearly up against my screen I noticed that it was in fact a 1080p image after all. Looked pretty bad in that setting.

No they did not say they will be updating to 4k, they just said they will consider it, lets hope they update it soon, the experience needs to be on par with the ps5.

Honestly I don't really see how a native 4K dashboard vs an upscaled dashboard would improve the overall experience. Is anyone really going to be like "man, look at the detail in these tiles! They are so crisp and clear from my couch 2 meters away! I could play this dashboard all day!"

I'm sure if you told the average person that the UI isn't in 4K they'd laugh at you for even being concerned about such a thing.

depends on your tv and how youre set up. Going from 1080 to 4K and non hdr to hdr is weird. It’s unnecessary. Make it 4K. It’s a 4K machine with 8k capabilities.

From what I understand, using 4K takes up more memory which devs can instead use towards games. In a closed box, every bit counts, in addition it helps make it a snappier UI experience vs 4K.

You're lucky. I got the error report crash yesterday trying to launch Call of Duty (and then AFTER that crash the game hard-locked the system in the campaign).

Why are xbox fans getting upset over this, even if ur happy with 1080p, surly everyone can agree it would be better in 4k, unless u think xsx can't handle a 4k ui that is fast and stable lol. Hell they can even have a option as u guys seem to prefer 1080p over 4k for some reason.
