Video Resizer: How to Change Video Resolution (4K to 1080p, 720p or 480p)
Resizing a video means changing its resolution: the number of pixels in each frame. A lower resolution makes a much smaller file.
Which resolution do you need?
| Resolution | Good for |
|---|---|
| 4K (2160p) | Big TVs and editing; very large files |
| 1080p (Full HD) | Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube; looks sharp on any phone |
| 720p (HD) | WhatsApp, Telegram and e-mail |
| 480p | The smallest files for slow connections |
Resize a video
- Open Video Compressor & Resizer and tap Select video.
- Choose the output resolution: shrink 4K to 1080p, 720p or 480p, or keep the original.
- Optionally set the bitrate and frame rate.
- Check the expected size and tap Compress video.
The aspect ratio stays the same, so the video is never stretched. Vertical videos stay vertical.
Prefer a ready setting? The Social Media & Reels profile gives sharp Full HD, Smallest file the maximum saving. More: Format, codec and bitrate.
