As a matter of fact, it is officially claimed that Xbox One (S), Xbox 360 support 4K format. The point here is, only a part of 4K formats like 4K MP4, 4K MKV are supported and the supported codec are also limited. Currently, 4K content could presumably use either H.264 or H.265 for encoding, while Xbox probably won't support H.265.
Moreover, even if it supports H.264, the video format problem remains: today, most of 4K movies are recorded in MXF/MTS/MOV/XAVC/XAVC-S format which the Xbox 360/One (S) does not support. Even if Xbox supports 4K MP4 , there're not many 4K MP4 video source available for you. Consequently, for native importation of 4K Movies and Videos to Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One S, it is highly advisable to first convert 4K Movies and Videos with appropriate codec and format for Xbox playback.
