A tiny thing here in essence, but where the Xbox One S and PS4 Pro output a variety of resolutions depending on which menus, apps or games you're playing, the Scorpio prioritises native 4K resolution, even across its main menus and the UI in general.

As anyone who bought an Xbox One will know, the dashboard could be very laggy and occasionally unresponsive. This is purely a resolution upgrade, but the assumption is that just using the system will be a marked improvement over the standard experience - especially seeing as otherwise, it's pretty devoid of personality outside of being a Windows 10 knock-off.

For Microsoft to even revamp this portion of the system is a major positive, showing they've listened to every criticism of the Xbox One since 2013.
