Correct, but both can be called 2160p just because of their vertical resolution. Overall both terms don't matter in gaming because aspect ratio can be changed on the fly (on PC) depending on the output device. Haven't touched a console in years but I assume they are stuck with a 16:9 aspect ratio no matter what they are playing on?
