YouTube Rolls Out 4K Video Support for All Android Devices

 


It looks like the popular video-sharing platform YouTube has quietly released a new update allowing people to stream 4K/60p videos on all mobile devices, even on the ones that do not have an Ultra HD display.

Although people using devices with a lesser display resolution won’t get the same video quality as they would with a higher resolution screen, turning on the 4K video playback option will still benefit them.

As per a trusted source, this change was discussed late last week on the YouTube subreddit first, where people observed that the option to select 4K video playback was now available to them even though their devices didn’t have a 4K display.

Let’s assume a user has a Full HD+ phone; if they boost the video resolution to its max, doing so should still deliver an improved visual experience than viewing a 1080p video. Although needless to say, having a 4K device would provide the best visual experience.

Currently, it seems as if this new feature is available, particularly on the YouTube Android app. Also, it is still unclear if all devices with a low resolution can now access the option of selecting 4K video playback or if it’s still restricted to Full HD or Full HD+ screens only.

In addition to this, for the time being, it is also unknown if the ability to stream 4K videos on devices that don’t have an Ultra HD display is a voluntary change or one that might vanish shortly.

Till now, Google has not commented on this recent change, although a lot of users look happy with this, and it would probably not go well if the platform removes this feature abruptly.

WRAPPING IT UP

YouTube seems to have rolled out a new update quietly, adding the ability to watch 4K videos even on phones that lack an Ultra HD display. Undoubtedly, many users are delighted with this change. They claim that streaming 4K videos offers them a better experience than watching 1080p content, even though they don’t have a 4K display. However, Google has not commented on this change yet, and it remains unknown if this is a planned change or one that will go away in the near future. It also remains unknown if all low-resolution devices can access the 4K video streaming option or if it is still restricted to Full HD or Full HD+ screens only. Well, it looks like we’ll have to wait to find out answers to these questions.

YouTube: Bad News for Content Creators in India and Other Countries

Google’s recent announcement might come across as “bad news” to YouTube  content  creators in India and other countries. The search engine informed all YouTubers via email that it will have to cut US taxes from payments to creators outside the United States. This means the US YouTube creators won’t have to bear any extra tax burden. Google may start deducting this additional tax from YouTube creators outside of the US from June 2021. In its official message, Google said that it would be asking YouTubers to submit their tax information in AdSense over the next couple of weeks. The search giant will use this data to ascertain the right amount of taxes to be deducted, if applicable. Further adding to this statement, the company said in case any YouTuber does not give their tax information by May 31, 2021, it might need to cut up to 24% of their total earnings worldwide. Here, what’s crucial to understand is that this additional tax will be cut from the money YouTubers make from t...
