Let’s enjoy 1080p movies on smartphones

Since the release of iPhone 4, more and more high-end smartphones come up with support for 720p video playback. That evolution continues in 2011, and is now moving from 720p to 1080p. The LG Optimus 2X comes with 1080p HD video playback and recording, and can connect to an external display using HDMI, which is also expected to be a more common feature by the end of 2011. It seems that everything’s ready for playing 1080p videos on smartphones.

But I found that my Google Nexus S plays a few of 1080p video files without problem, and these videos are H.264 MP4 videos encoded with a bitrate of 2000kpbs. Then I noticed that all my 1080p or 720p videos that can’t be play properly share something in common- all are of high bitrate, most 6000kpbs and above. So I converted 1080p videos to 720p and reduce video bitrate to 2000kpbs and this time the Nexus S plays the movies without hassle. (more…)
