1320 × 2868 vs 1920 × 1080 and 1320 × 2868 vs 3840 × 2160

1320 × 2868 has 83% more pixels than 1080p (1920 × 1080). On a 6.7-inch phone that is 471 vs 329 pixels per inch, so text and fine detail look sharper at 1320 × 2868. A game or encoder has to process 1.83× as many pixels per frame, which costs frame rate on the same graphics card and, at equal quality, file size.

4K UHD (3840 × 2160) has 119% more pixels than 1320 × 2868. On a 6.7-inch phone that is 471 vs 658 pixels per inch, so text and fine detail look softer at 1320 × 2868. A game or encoder processes only 46% as many pixels per frame, which helps frame rates and keeps files smaller.

How to resize to 1320 × 2868

  • In an editor, set the sequence or export frame size to 1320 × 2868; if the source has a different shape, choose scale to fill (crop) or scale to fit (bars) rather than stretch.
  • With FFmpeg, exact size: ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -vf scale=1320:2868 -c:a copy out.mp4
  • With FFmpeg, keep the whole picture and add bars: ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -vf "scale=1320:2868:force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,pad=1320:2868:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2" -c:a copy out.mp4
  • Upscaling a smaller source to 1320 × 2868 makes the file bigger without adding detail; scale down from a larger master when you can.
