Can't watch online videos in HD?

I can't find anyone else with this problem, so I decided to come here where the professionals live.
My problem is that i'm 100% sure that this is an hd phone, as I've downloaded and played HD videos before, and the default background is HD. Whenever I run the youtube application, the maximum quality that i'm allowed to choose is 480p. Any help would be appreciated.
The resolution is qHD, youtube detects itself, so we cant have 720p on youtube.

Moto E 2015 has a 960x540 resolution screen. While the phone can handle playing higher-resolution video (I'm been able to play 1080p and 720p 10bit video in MX Player with no issues), the Youtube app limits to the resolution of your screen. Wish it at least gave the option for 720p, for the greater bitrate, but alas it's limited to 480p. Unofficial Youtube apps might give you all the resolution options, but I haven't tested out any to confirm.

YouTube 60fps videos

Anybody get above 480p resolution on 60fps videos?
Reported it daily but still no joy

I can only watch youtube in 480p too. I don't know what they are trying to pull here.
Can you change to 1080p in the youtube settings?
Or you can use Tubemate. I think tubemate is better. It can download videos and especially see upvotes in youtube comments.

it only shows the option of 1080p when its not on 1080p 60fps,when its on 60 fps ,the maximun resolution is 480p. Maybe the display its not supported,but i doubt that because the refresh rate of the display its 120 mhz if im not mistaken.
It's quite annoying to have to watch 480p when you need it the most.
I posted the problem on the sonymobile forum.

http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-X/Youtube/m-p/1139025/highlight/true#M297 Someone linked me to this saying that it's youtube's fault for not adding it to supported devices.
Now it's supported, look :

YouTube resolution

Hello. Does anyone know why youtube resolution 2k is not available? The maximum resolution for me is 1080p.
It's related to the VP9 codec, I forced the codec on the YouTube Vanced app and it now plays content up to 4k however the tablet isn't really capable of smooth 4k playback, 1440p works fine.

1440p and 4K works fine for me in VP9. 1440p @ 60 fps stutters a lot though.
It does play in 1440p in app but just on a few selected videos for me. I have no idea tho why. It is strange.

I'm gonna go with a big, fat maybe...? on this one. [email protected] is pretty demanding and in the stock YouTube app (i.e. without forcing VP9) [email protected] doesn't work reliably.

does 1440p work with other apps or if you record your own videos mate?
Smart Resolution
I noticed the same problem in a show unit. On my Huawei Mate 10 Settings, Display, Screen Resolution, there is an option called Smart Resolution. If I disable the option for smart resolution, the OS allows me to pick between HD (1280 x 720), FHD (1920 x 1080) and WQHD (2569 x 1440). Changing the resolution to WQHD will allow Youtube to play higher than 1080. However on the M5, there is just a toggle to enable / disable the smart resolution. See if that helps with the situation.

I think the issue here is that the Kirin 960 does not decode VP9 videos, which are what YouTube's premium video is encoded in (above 1080p). Hence the tablet can't view them, unless it does software decoding (which will kill the battery life)
I am trying to play 2k videos on youtube on my mediapad m5 8.4
I installed the youtube vanced but it still doesn't work and i still watch only FHD.
Could you please help me if there is a fix for this.
https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/a52148d7 in video formats it says Vp9 codec, so I think it is supported.

Hmmm, also another issue I've found is that HEVC playback only works on the stock video app. VLC is unable to hardware decode it. Maybe a software update from Huawei can fix this.
Also the Asus Zenpad 3S10 had an issue like this, but 1440p was exposed, but it didn't hardware decode and so was laggy. I think there was a software update that fixed it. That was a MediaTek CPU though.
Kirin 960 cant decode VP9

Found that few secs ago too. Sorry for misinformation.
I am at utter disbelief and shock.
I did not imagine it won't play anything more than 1080!!!
I tried on YouTube vanced but it stutters during playback.
I am returning this device today.
Technology progresses, not regresses.
Just bought 2 mediapads today. 10.8.
Only 1980 on YouTube.
Only 1980 on Netflix.
Stutter on 4k videoes both streaming and having the file on the tablet.
No external utube apps Will play higher than 1980x1080.
My chinese chuwi hi9air will play 2K on YouTube.
And stream 4k no stress.
Netflix only 980x560. Fml.
Solution... Hm.. returning my new mediapads and keep my chinese.

You know... I bought this because i wanted a slightly bigger screen so i could enjoy even more the 2K resolution.. but since it doesn't show any 2k or 4k material without stuttering and having a croppy picture i dont see any reason to buy this.
I rather buy a bigger Chinese tablet with 2K than this.
It really breakes my heart to because i really wanted them...

So, you're saying you're returning your Chinese Mediapads, and keeping your Chinese non-Mediapads?

Yes. Correct.
My Chuwi hi9air is a Chinese crap tablet that have no recognizion in the large market.
Yet they outperform the more than twice expensive Huawei mediapad.
Now im gonna order a chuwi hi 9 plus the 10.8 and already i know that tablet is gonna be better than Huawei.
Ps- everything is made china. Even the packaging of the fish you buy at the store is from china.
duplicated.

Thanks! I did the steps in your link and now I have 1440p60fps smooth in my M5 8.4". Battery drain is very noticeable, but it's not a problem for me.
I don't understand why Huawei block this resolution if it can manage it.

4k videos aren't very common due to their weight , so I don't think the YouTube app support 4k.
