File size is highly content-dependent; a 4K video can range from several hundred MB to several GB, while a 1080p version is typically 1–5 GB for longer videos. The converter prioritizes preserving visual fidelity while keeping the file size reasonable for offline viewing.

The 4K YouTube download format refers to saving video in 4K resolution (2160p) and typically in MP4 with a high-efficiency codec like H.265 or a widely supported H.264, depending on source availability and browser support. Audio can be extracted separately as MP3 or M4A if you choose the audio-only option.
Yes. 4K video files are large. A fast and stable internet connection helps ensure quicker downloads and reduces the chance of interruptions during conversion.
Absolutely. You can download 4K content and play it back on devices that support 4K playback or convert it to a lower resolution such as 1080p for compatibility.
Yes. MKV is a container format that can hold more advanced features, multiple audio tracks, and subtitles, while MP4 is the most universally supported. If you need universal compatibility, MP4 is usually the best choice.
The downloader preserves quality based on the selected output. If you choose 4K MP4, you'll get the best fidelity your chosen file supports. If you choose a lower resolution, file size will be smaller with less detail.
For the 4K MP4 output, typical technical details include:
File size is content-dependent. A 10-minute 4K video might range from several hundred megabytes to a couple of gigabytes, while shorter clips are much smaller. The downloader prioritizes fidelity while optimizing download speed and disk usage.
Choosing 4K MP4 is ideal when you want the best possible picture on modern displays, plan to edit the video, or require future-proofing for archival storage. If you're creating a quick share on social media or need to fit a video into a smaller screen, 1080p MP4 or WEBM might be more efficient. For audio-focused projects like podcasts, MP3 or M4A will provide compact, high-quality sound without video data.
