Hi, I’m trying to upload videos and want to know the correct YouTube video dimensions. Can someone explain what YouTube video dimensions are and why they matter for quality and display?

The usual YouTube video size are based on resolution:

1080p (Full HD): 1920 x 1080 pixels.

720p (HD) is 1280 x 720 pixels.

480p (SD) is 854 × 480 pixels.

4K (Ultra HD): 3840 x 2160 pixels.

8K resolution: 7680 × 4320 pixels.

YouTube's default aspect ratio is 16:9, which ensures that videos appear correctly on most screens.
