It's definetly not mostly a 1440p console. Here's a quick rundown of some of the Pro compatible games.

 

Native 4K:

Pyre
The Last of Us: Remastered
The Witness
Fifa17
NBA 2K17
Shadow of Mordor
Nioh

There are more, these are just the ones I can pull off the top of my head.

Checkboard 4K:

Horizon Zero Dawn
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
Call of Duty: Black Ops III
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Battleborn
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided


1800p (*native):

Final Fantasy XV
Infamous: Second Son
Infamous: First Light
Mass Effect Andromeda
Watchdogs 2
No Mans Sky*
Ratchet and Clank
Mafia 3*

There are certainly 1440p games (Fallout, Titanfall, Dishonoured) but a good bulk of Pro compatible games are higher resolution.

What does "checkerboard 4k" mean?

Checkerboarding is a rendering technique that's used to increase the resolution of a game by taking data from a previous frame and placing it into a new frame. It's way more effective than upscalling and way less demanding than rendering a new pixel natively.
