Before I updated I was able to send and recieve the same quality video as the original. Now the videos I send and recieve they are smaller and terrible quality...what's going on? My friend said his iPhone was always like this but I have older mms as proof from before the update and they were the same as original video taken.

MMS has always been low quality, shrunk down grainy etc...
You can never send same quality video as the original taken with the camera with MMS. The carriers network shrinks and downsizes videos and pics on MMS automaticly before it transfers it to the receivers phone. Nothing you can do on your end, its done on their side.
If you want full size good quality videos send it using imessage or email or dropbox and other such services.

Ah that's why...they remain the same over iMessage but not normal mms
