Sending quality videos and photos via social media

[Mars]

I have a Samsung S21 that captures wonderful high quality video and images. However, when sharing these on social media such as Facebook or Instagram, the compression on the receiving end is really really bad. Just wondering if others experience the same issue and is there a solution.

Hey there @Mars,

Welcome to the community and thanks for your post.

It seems like you're not the only one facing this issue with the Samsung S21.

There is a great thread on the Samsung Community, check out Advice picture and video qualityand Poor picture quality when sharing pictures to Instagramon the Samsung website.

Let the Community know if you have any questions.

Hello. Thank you for the reply. None of these threads address the matter of compression. Whether it's through, Intagram, Facebook or Facebook Messenger, the results are the same. I think it's the carrier that's compressing the video and still images and there doesn't seem to be a solution. It could be the MMS system as well.
