video shooting: UHD vs FHD quality - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
help me to sort something out.
I made a UHD video and FHD video. Both fps are 30. My PC monitor is 1920x1080.
How can it be, that UHD video quality is much much better then FHD? I say so, because my monitor is with FHD resolution (so it cannot reproduce UHD fully) and frame rate is 30 on both videos, so the quality should be the same, right?
Or I do understand something wrong here ?
Thanks!

An UHD downscaled to FHD video will probably appear sharper than a native FHD video when being displayed on an FHD monitor.
That's not very strange, imho.

Because FULL HD has only 17Mbps bitrate whereas 4K in Marshmallow has 46Mpbs, in Lollipop 30Mpbs.

[Q] FHD playback on QHD display & 4K recording length?

Hi I currently have a Sony Z2 and HTC One M8, thinking of upgrading the Z2 to something better like the G3 or new S5 advance but I only have two questions that G3 reviews did not answer and they are:
1. How is the 1080P playback on the QHD display of G3. "The reason is that most steaming sites do 1080p and the ones than do 1440p are either of sub par quality or of a processed type. A call to one of the streaming sites confirms the same they have two video sources FHD and UHD there are no QHD sources"
2. How long does the 4K recording last? "My Z2 records 4K only up till 5Min which is crap and a complete joke had I known this limitation would have chosen something else, the 1080p recording is worse to HTC One M8 performance that is a slap on its face"
1. that review uttered a total nonsense any screen can playback whatever kind of res a video have as long as the hardware and software are up for the job, it's more depending on the source file itself.

Its not that if G3 can playback 1080p its more of that how does 1080p look on a QHD screen. For example I have a Dell U2713HM with a 2560x1440 WQHD resolution but when I play a 1080p movie the quality looks less than on a Dell S2740L because the source and screen both are 1080p.
nonsense there is too many 720p contents on the web that still looks fine even on a QHD monitor...

Does 1080p video look better than 4k from the G4 camera?

From my understanding, 4k video from the G4 has very low bitrate. I took two comparison videos on my phone, 1080p vs 4k, and it seems like the 1080p looks quite a bit better. Anyone know the bitrate comparisons between the two?
I'm wondering if it's wise to just keep my video settings set to record only 1080p and not even bother with 4k.
To me the 4k looks better then 1080p...

4k looks better than the 1080p, but the 4k still doesn't look great on my 4k monitor on my computer. The computer has lots of pixelization, and playback looks like borderline buffering. The computer has plenty of horsepower too.

Does we have any advantage from playing 2160p - 1440p videos on 1080p display

Firstly sorry for very basic question ;D.
I have seen some guys playing 4k (2160p) videos on youtube, but does this videos looks better then 2k (1080 p) videos, even if the display resolution is 2k only ?
I am asking because im watching from time to time vr videos, but the quality isn't really good with 2k videos.
No advantage. If this was true, then what was the need of making 4K display in the first place
@hp5942
but maybe if the video has black lines on the side and you zoom in then you would have an advantage with 4k ?

Maybe. But if you are not zooming, then 4K has no advantage on 1080p screen

does the s9 has video stabilization enabled when recording 1080p 60fps video?

hi, i found a deal on an s9 and wanted to know if the phone records 1080p 60fps video with stabilization enabled coz my current mate 9 doesn't and lately i record a lot of videos and at 30 fps the videos isn't up to my taste
Video stabilization isn't available in UHD (60 fps) and 1:1 resolutions. It is available in FHD (60 fps). UHD being 3840x2160 and FHD being 1920x1080.

Question Video Quality

Did anyone do their testing on the Video settings and which option would give me the best video result? is 4k 60 worse in quality than 4k 30 but higher frames? how is the 8k compared to the best 4k option (Other than res?)
