Question DeX in 4k? - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Is there any word yet, whether DeX will finally be able to do 4k, or is it still stuck with 2k?

Bump.
Since the device seems to be in people's hands by now. Could anyone let me know?
Thank you!

Samsung DeX officially supports the following resolutions:
[With an external display device (e.g. a TV or monitor) connected through a cable]
▷ Smartphones (※ Supported resolutions vary depending on the connected accessory.)
1) When an HDMI adapter is used
• 16:9 screen ratio: FHD (1920x1080), HD+ (1600x900)
2) When the DeX Station or DeX Pad is used
• 16:9 screen ratio: FHD (1920x1080), HD+ (1600x900), WQHD (2560x1440)
• 16:10 screen ratio: WUXGA (1920x1200), WQXGA (2560x1600)
• 21:9 screen ratio: UWFHD (2560x1080), UWQHD (3440x1440)
▷ Tablets and foldable devices (※ The following resolutions are supported regardless of the type of connected accessories.)
• 16:9 screen ratio: FHD (1920x1080), HD+ (1600x900), WQHD (2560x1440)
• 16:10 screen ratio: WUXGA (1920x1200), WQXGA (2560x1600)
• 21:9 screen ratio: UWFHD (2560x1080), UWQHD (3440x1440)
※ The Galaxy Tab S7 FE supports up to WQXGA (2560x1600) for a wired connection and up to FHD (1920x1080) for a wireless connection.
※ If you cannot select the desired resolution, check the resolutions supported by the connected display device. If you are using a UHD (4K) TV and it does not support WQHD, then you cannot use it.
※ Note that the resolutions supported by Samsung DeX are in compliance with the specifications required by the DisplayPort standard (HDMI standard). Display devices that fall outside the specifications defined by this standard may not support some of the resolutions.
[With a PC connected through a cable or wirelessly]
• 16:9 aspect ratio: FHD (1920 × 1080)
[With a TV connected wirelessly]
• 16:9 screen ratio: FHD (1920x1080)
※ For Samsung Smart TVs with 4K resolutions released in or after 2017, WQHD (2560x1440) is supported when connected through the 5 GHz band.
※ TVs or dongle devices of other manufacturers that do not support FHD may be connected at a lower resolution.
So sadly no.
Tested with my S22 Ultra with a HDMI 2.0 to USB cable and Wirelessly and indeed no 4K out. Samsung would need to update the Dex backend, rather than the hardware to allow higher resolution.

[Q] Does Android user interface support 4K UHD resolution?

I'm looking to develop an android app to be used on a 3840x2160 4K/UHD display using an Android miniPC that supposedly supports "4K resolution."
I have a few different Android miniPCs (all Android 4.4) and they all play 4K videos fine. Also, for all of them, the 3840x2160 resolution was selected in the Display settings in HDMI mode . However, when I display a UHD equivalent image using an image viewer, the image looks to be scaled up from a smaller size. When I download apps from the Google Play store that measures the resolution of the device, they all report that the device is displaying at 1080p.
I believe these 4K Android miniPC can decode 4K video, but the user interface is still being displayed at 1080p despite what is selected in the Display settings. There is an article from cnx-software that blames the type of processor for these types of devices not being able to support UHD resolution. (i would provide links, but unable to include them as a new forum user.)
Is it really the processor limiting the device? I find it hard to believe the processor can display 4K video, but unable to support a 4K user interface. So my question is, can Android support a user interface and an app at 3840x2160 resolution? If so what would it take to support it?
Thank you in advance for any insight you can provide.
I have Beelink R28 box and it has the same behavior. It seems that Android doesn't support UHD resolutions and wonder why there are no any information about this.

Forcing 4k resolution over HDMI

I've connected my Shield Tablet to 4k monitor (some 24" Dell), and I've been playing with it couple of hours trying to force true 3840x2160p30 render over the HDMI. Game outputs 1920x1080, which is being upscaled to 4k resolution - I can see normal upscaling artifacts, quad pixel aliasing, etc., also screenshots pulled from the device are in 1920x1080 resolution (not 1920x1200, like shield's MIPI panel, so I'm sure I'm pulling from correct frame buffer).
Question: How I can force the shield to RENDER at 4k? I don't care about abysmal fps I'm going to get, I need true 4k output.
Halp...?

Change HDMI resolution

Is there a way I can change HDMI resolution on SHIELD Portable? I have a 1366x768 LED monitor wich gets wrong aspect ratio in 1280x720. Can I change HDMI resolution to 1366x768? Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately, this is not possible. Android itself doesn't support changing the HDMI output resolution. Until it does, the SHIELD Portable won't support it either.

Android TV support for Ultra Wide Displays like WQHD 3440x1440

What is Android TV support for "irregular" display resolutions?
I cannot find the answer anywhere online so I turn to the experts. I found conflicting answers, most to the negative, but no definitive explanation.
The story:
I recently bought an ultra wide monitor (Samsung S34J550 with 21:9, 3440x1440 WQHD resolution) to work from home that I occasionally would like to use as a smart TV in the living room, without hooking a PC and HDMI cable to it. Currently I can see some Netflix movie in full screen when played from my PC via HDMI to the Samsung monitor. For convenience, I'm looking for a PC-less solution where I would remotely control the device. I'm ready to buy an Amazon Fire Stick 4K or any other Android TV device, or a ChromeCast as long as I can leverage the full ultra width for 21:9 movie playback.
Would any Android stick adapt to a WQHD resolution? Or only 4K sticks? Amazon Fire 4K? Google ChromeCast? None of the above? And if not, what are my options?
Alternatively, a lower 21:9 resolution would still fine with me for movie watching. Like 1/4 of full resolution: 1720x720.
TIA
Same
I have exactly the same situation, 3440x1440 display, and it is annoying to be forced to use a laptop for proper 21:9 watching experience.
Support for wide formats is needed for Android TV.
I am using Xiaomi's Xi Box S as it claimed to have support up to 4K resolutions. Unfortunately only regular 16:9 modes seem to be supported so have to use it at 1080p only.
