Thanks for the feedback. You are right that the current limit is 1080p resolution as per Microsoft documentation.
Prepare your organization's network for Teams - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Docs
There has been calls for this online for a long time about going beyond 1080p - for example, to 4k. Microsoft restricted it for a while to 720p because of platform scaling, but I think we are at the point it needs to happen, especially as cameras like the Brio support it.
I have raised a feedback for you here. I am sure there was one previously on Uservoice but this doesn't seem to have been moved over. I would recommend voting up and getting as many to do so to get it in front of the product team
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

- If platform scaling is such a huge problem, then stop trying to get everything hosted in the cloud. Give the companies the option to have a MS Teams appliance local on their gigabit network. Then let them share 4k all they want, and scale out those appliances as needed.
There are times when something local on the network is better, there are times when something external hosted locally (Edge vs Cloud computing) is better.
We should not all be limited because some people don't need 4k.- Thanks very much!
If you could leave your feedback on the current feedback idea which corresponds to the old one on Uservoice that would be awesome

Alternatively, please feel free to open alternative feedbacks with the ideas you have.
All the best! Chris
- it's a good idea for personal
but if it's 4K, should we concern the auto adjust may not good enough?
still think it's better to have a function&policy&setting for Company to control itIf sharing between two 4K monitors (each user has a 4K monitor) with high band width (very common these days), why does Teams lower the resolution to 1920 x 1080? Everything appears blurry and hard to read. Try it with Zoom and you will see how much better it looks.
- I mean I agree to have this option under control, and I can see you are in a company with excellent hardware, but at least for most giant company I know, still not have/need that.
it's about management, stable, cost/benefit, it sounds cold blood but that how we run a company
it sounds more useful for CAD/PS/MTR than normal app(office, browser, sap, etc.) , which make it should be undercontrol,
I'm afraid 4K and related network bandwidth still not the majority for apps, people needs.
about zoom, I will not judge
- Thank you Chris. We're very happy with the Office365 etc environment in general and I understand the service needs to scale well to the lowest common denominator, but it seems harmless to expand the upper range if everyone in the call can handle it.
