Pretty confused. I cannot select 4k, or at first anything above 720p until I installed the re installed Youtube\cleared it. Now I have the option of 1080p, but I am still missing the option of 4k as I have the Note 4, is this just a Youtube mobile app problem or what? Thanks in advance, loving the display but confused as the Youtube app just seems funky and won't allow anything above 1080p, so I have no way of really showing off the phones 4k feature in terms of video quality. Thanks in advance
Well the video has to have been uploaded at 4k quality... Try Rhett and Links "Vacation Song". I know that was uploaded in 4k.

I would like to know also.... I'm only getting 720p
You sure that the content has 4k option on your PC ?
There's no option in the YouTube app for 4k. You yourself a can shoot 4K video or view content that has been uploaded in 4K.

Oh I've tried a boat-load of 4k ones. On my PC there is an option for 4k with them, not on Note 4's Youtube app. I also at first was stuck with just up to 720p, I uninstalled Youtube and re-installed and now get 1080p, but still nothing like 1440p or 4k.
The 1080 option is a very recent addition to the Youtube app. (one of the last two updates.)
Which is ridiculous, since 1920x1200 screens on Android have been around since the Asus TF700T introduced them in July 2012. More than two bloody years ago.
2K will probably take them another two years to figure out, 4k at least four.
So no, the option does not exist.

According to what I was reading if you go back two Youtube updates you get 1440P, you just have to uninstall and manually install the old package. It was in there, as was 1080P before, they just took it out for some reason. Stupid considering all the 4k devices on the market now.

Dident you even consider that it wasnt stable enough and 1080p is back, at least here in Europe.
Still having this problem
Load 4k vids on YT and 1440 is the highest option
Anyone know if and when YT will include 4k as an option?
Also is there a site or resource that posts what youtube is working on/releasing/released/etc. ?
Like when app updates say what comes with the update and what's different. ..something like that for youtube android development

Anyone more think that all the video samples are choppy like the phone can't maintain the framerate and worse in quality than I4?
Looked great to me. Didn't see any chop.

first, i'm see it ok, no double frame & stutter when recording , second, since when the I4 can record at 1080p? if you want to compare, compare with 720p recording for SGS2, i'm sure SGS2 better then I4...
Yea I see some stutters... I dunno if it's just because of early software or youtube compression or whatever. First of all this is 1080p, so you can't really compare it to the iPhone's 720p.
The only way to check for exact output is to download and analyze the file outputed by the phone itself, as youtube is notorious for compressing and decreasing framerates to decrease size.
So far I have seen nothing but great opinions in reviews as far as 1080 recording go...
And as many have said rotten-apple company phone does not do anything better than 720.
They seem fine to me as well. Perhaps check that your Graphics card can play back that resolution.
Not criticizing you, just merely stating the obvious.
Seems awesome to me, never thought a phone could record like that, if you're on Mac or Linux don't forget Flash can sometimes be awful on these OS.
I am on a Mac and it looks fantastic here.
The video quality is smooth and crisp. If you pause it, you can actually clearly see license plates.
Wow, what crappy video from a phone.
If I were you I wouldn't buy it.
Saving the stock for yourself there?

Irony? If not, which phone do you have ?
of course it will be not like canon or nikon whatever cameras
its a smartphone .. with a camera and capable of recording 1080p @30fps .. not bad
dont expect too much from a phone
if u want a pro camera go buy one .. like canon vixia hf20
Yes total sarcasm.
I watched the video and I honestly could not see what the guy is talking about.
The video looks flippin great. And seeing the latest bench marks on the phone I very happy I passed up the Atrix not to mention that the Atrix is locked up tighter than a drum.
Oh, OK. It's always difficult to know whether it's sarcasm or not when it's written and not spoken.

Hmm i dont see any choppy video anywhere! and considering that the video is this good from a pre production model, i cant wait to see what the retail unit can do
There is no denying that the video is choppy. Thats a shame, hope the finished product is better. Some here are saying its only a phone so don't expect too much, but the iphone 4 has smooth video recording and so too does the 3GS. I think we've come to expect better.
just use 720p and you ll be fine...
Remember that these videos have been uploaded to Youtube and been encoded by Google again. If you actually go to Keepvid.com and download the video at full 1080 and watch it in VLC, they look gorgeous.

Thats not the solution.
If they sold the phone as 1080p 30fps, it should be 1080p 30fps that it is SMOOTH video not skippy one.
Question for anyone who already has a XZU - are you able to test the playback of a file created by a GoPro Hero 3 for example at 1080p and 60fps?
My Nexus 10 struggles to play back this kind of video file when I am away on a snowboarding trip and I want to watch back footage. I use it to copy the video files off the SD cards onto a portable HDD just fine but it sucks having to wait until I get back home to my PC to watch these things properly.
I am hoping with the Snapdragon 800, I'll be able to watch back the videos without slow down or having to slow the frame rate down - thanks.

The video file is in 8bits or 10bits? I suppose you're talking about 10bits since 1080p 8bit files runs fine with the Snapdragon 600.
I've tested myself, running a 1080p 10bit file on my phone, there's visible slow and frame skip at some heavy scenes. Just like how my Samsung S4 tries to handle a 720p 10bit file (Snapdragon 600).
Maybe when root is possible and custom kernel comes, maybe some performance tweaking, Snapdragon 800 can make it.
Thanks for the reply - I will check later if they are 10-bit, but right now I suspect they are.

Hmm, not sure how to determine if they are 10 bit videos but I can see the data rate at 30013kbps and the total data rate at 30141kbps.
So I now have an XZU and tried some 1080p 60fps video recorded by my GoPro - plays beautifully. What a device.

So recently, like just yesterday youtube 720p and 1080p in 60 fps has been officially released on iOS and Android, a friend of mine already has it on his iOS and ive seen some posts on android, However how many people honestly can use it on their androids? for me i cant even find 720p option anymore on my Samsung s4, im curious whether some devices are going to be released in a bit or just not even supported. Curious about your thoughts and comments on this
*Sorry if this is the wrong place to post it, im highly unsure of where exactly to post this
It's common not having 720p on many phones even flagship ones, however if you don't have 720p support you wont have 60fps support.
If you really really get 720p60fps then find youtube apk mods on xda which enable 720p and maybe you get lucky..

Thanks for the reply mate, maybe i didnt phrase it correctly, i always had normal 720p and 1080p support on the official app, however after release of 60fps on phones, any video that was 720p60fps isnt shown adn the top quality is 480p, but videos with normal 720p and 1080p are shown and i can use that quality
have anyone faced this problem with 2k 60fps videos or is just me ? cuz I tried 2k only without 60fps and it worked fine so I was wondering is it a problem with youtube or phone itself.
They brought 2k 60fps back?
YT disabled this feature cuz it was supper laggy (even on pixels)
Tomorrow I can test on my G7, since I've the 10 pro my screen is 1080p only.
Leave some links with video examples.
Probably your wifi is too slow.

Hi guys,
recently i got a oppo reno 5G which is basicly a 10x zoom 5G version. it is currently on color os 6, it's widevine L1, but unable to play prime video at HD, best quality is only at 0.46GB/hr. as reno 10x zoom 4g already updated to color os 7, just wonder if any change been made through the update? 5G version should get color os 7 in June. thanks.

If it it helps I have COS7 on the 10XZ and can play full HD content on Netflix and Disney+
"0.46GB/hr" what does this mean? In terms of quality do you mean you are only getting 480p?

thanks for you reply, good to hear that. one more question, can you remember if you can play at 1080P when you were on cos 6?
yes, you are right, in prime video app, when choose streaming quality the "BEST" i get is 0.46GB/hr, meaning 480P. My wife's p30 pro has BEST like 1.8GB/hr.
i was suprised that my old pixel 2xl had same 0.46GB/hr, never notice that before.
also may i ask couple of more question since you are here.
how is your cos 7 experience? i read from chinese web, many users compalint about lag, battery, heating, and other issues. moreover when i read from Gsmarena "Oppo Reno 10x zoom - user opinions and reviews" most of people there had issues with cos7, and most of them suggest stay on cos6.
i am confused.

My experience with COS7
Faster, more fluid usability. No lags. None with COS6 either, but the UI is now even smoother.
I'm using the global model (CPH1919). The Chinese model is inferior to the global model and as such, users will experience some variation between COS6 and COS7.
Ignore any reviews, etc from China. It's different.
In answer to your issue with HD, I can confirm that I had no issues with receiving HD - 1080 or 4K. I'm wondering if your settings on your app are set to "Auto". This can happen with YouTube and if you manually request 1080 or above, then that will be the normal setting (unless a video is specifically of a lower standard format of course).
I have attached an example from YouTube settings. I have overridden the standard setting, so I get at least 1080 over WiFi and at least 480 over mobile data.
Best suggestion I can offer, I'm afraid. Let me know how you get on.

Thanks for your reminder, I find there is a option to " use hardware acceleration" on my old pixel 2xl phone. Make it HD now. However, the option isn't even there on my Reno 5G at all. Have no idea.
i installed netflix and in the setting, it shows widevine L1 and FULL HD, i guess it's fine with netflix. on youtube i have no problem watch 1080P content. maybe it is just the prime video had something to do with the phone.
I read online, cos 7 brings some sort of GPU acceleration, not sure if that will help solve this issue.

if that is the case, i guess there is nothing i can do. Maybe one day after a update, it will be fixed. it is pain to watch 480p on a 6.6 inch screen. by the way, may i ask you battery drain during standby? like 8 hrs standby, yestday i reset my phone with off screen clock off, wifi/bluetooth/location/nfc, gamil/photo auto sync,backup on., no sim. it drained 4% in 9hrs. i think it is ok. do not know what normal drain like.

Does anyone know what the status of HDR playback on Netflix, Amazon and Disney+ is? I assume this is down to the actual apps lacking support for the phone, but I had read that HDR used to work on the 10x Zoom at some point last year.

Netflix and Disney+ work perfectly at 1080p for me. I don't have Prime, but I know some people have struggled with it - mainly 5G devices restricted to 480p.

They work well in HD for me as well. It's just that the screen is capable of HDR and whilst sometimes I find HDR can be either not very useful or a bit too much, it would be nice for it to work as the screen is capable. Having said that, I compared my playback in Netflix to that on a Oneplus 7t (which is supported for HDR in Netflix) and there was little/no obvious difference (bar the slightly cool rendition on the Oppo).
