Question about videos on the iPhone 4

[berrytarts]

Hey people @ Macrumours!

I recently bought an iPhone 4 16gb. So, I was wondering whether it would slow down if I loaded around 10gb worth of videos into it? I have lots of videos so, well I was wondering if the performance would be affected if the memory is this full. I currently have 10.6 gb left in my iPhone due to apps and songs etc.

Another question: Will videos in 960x640 resolution(full resolution of iPhone) look as crisp as the 1080p ones? Considering how they have a smaller data usage, I was wondering if I would still be able to see some of the subtitles which are smaller than average.

Thanks everyone!

Hi.

I keep mine almost completely full and there are no performance issues do to that.

I rip movies to the native resolution and I believe they look just as good. I keep the bitrate high.

I see.

Then I shall go ahead and convert my videos then. Thanks for the help!

Memory and storage space are separate on the iPhone just like any other computer. The 16GB are more like a hard drive or USB stick, and there's a separate space for actual RAM (about 512MB worth).
