What is 3GP?

3GP files are a multimedia container format defined by the Third Generation Partnership Project. It was developed to play videos on 3G-enabled mobile phones that weren’t capable of playing MP4 videos, but 3GP files can also work on some 2G and 4G phones.

3GP files can still be used, but there’s less of a need for them thanks to more mobile bandwidth availability and higher mobile data caps. MP4 is a more flexible file format than 3GP, though, because it can be played by many more types of devices and software.

What is MP4?

MP4 is one of the most widely used video file formats. You can upload MP4 videos to popular social media sites like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook. Media players like Windows Media Player, VLC, QuickTime, iPhone, iPad and Android are also compatible with MP4 video files.

MP4s are popular not only for their compatibility with most devices but also for their ability to hold high-resolution videos without taking up much storage space. MP4 stands for MPEG4, and an MP4 file can contain video, audio, images and subtitles.
