It’s always seemed weird to me that photos seem to be the same quality as the original (or very close) when sending to and from the same devices. Thank you in advance!

When you send a picture or video cross-platform it has to send through MMS which typically has a limit of 1MB. Generally a photo is going to be around 3MB so it’ll have to compress to a third of is size to reach that limit, a ten second 1080p video can fall around 30MB so it’ll have to compress to being a thirtieth of it’s size to hit that same limit.
(These file sizes I’m using aren’t going to be exactly the same for every phone but are what I got from my phone and settings.)
