Social media giant Meta is testing HD-quality videos on WhatsApp application.
According to WABetainfo, Meta is working on the ability to send high-quality videos on WhatsApp. Users will be able to choose between Standard quality and HD quality options while sending a video to chats.
WhatsApp sends videos and images as Standard quality by default, but if users want to send them in better quality, they need to choose the HD quality option. To be clear, choosing the HD quality option before sending does not mean the video will be sent in original quality.
WhatsApp will still apply compression to the videos even if users choose the HD option. HD videos will be far better than the Standard quality videos, but not as good as the original ones.
