videos recirded with phone have poor quality when sent to others, help please

[NW-GSP]

I have a new Nokia icon and it takes amazing videos but when i send them they look like crap. Is there any way to fix this?

What are they trying to view them with?

Most videos taken with phones, look "OK" on small screens, but look like doo doo on PCs or TVs.

My phone can record in 1080 wich is really high quality but when i text the video to someone else it looks like crap.

Can the other person watch the video in 1080p?

[NW-GSP]

Yes the other phone is the same model.

I'm not sure exactly what causes this, but I have the same problem with my wife's phone, and my own. I have the Galaxy S4, and she has an iPhone 5C. No matter who we send videos too, they always downgrade the quality.

The only solution that I have come up with is to upload them to Dropbox, and then share the video through that.

Are you sending the video in a text or an email? I've noticed that if I text someone a video on my phone the quality is not all that great. However, if I email it, my phone compresses the video automatically and maintains the quality through the email that I can't get with a text.
