Say why video fills a phone
Which few things to look at when the phone says it has no room left.
A video is a long run of still pictures — around thirty every second — with the sound recorded alongside them.
So one minute of video weighs about as much as hundreds of photos. A few clips fill a phone.
Key points
- A video is many still pictures a second, with sound alongside
- Long clips are the heaviest thing on most phones
What to remember
- Videos are the first place to look when room runs out.
- Video is heavy because it is thousands of pictures.
