The 4K Video Downloader supports YouTube videos in 4K (3840x2160) and other resolutions. You can also extract audio or save video in different containers and codecs. Whether you want the full 4K video or a smaller size with acceptable quality, the tool adapts to your needs.
Formats available typically include MP4 (H.264/AVC or HEVC/H.265), WebM (VP9 or AV1), and sometimes MKV based on stability and browser compatibility. Audio extraction options include MP3 and M4A. Here is a quick look at what you can expect:
Quality control is a core part of the download process. You can choose from several presets and tailor the bitrates to balance fidelity and file size. Typical ranges:
Remember, higher bitrates generally yield better quality but larger file sizes. If you have limited storage or slower internet, you can opt for 4K at a lower bitrate or switch to a lower resolution like 1080p. For most 4K clips, 24–30 fps with 30 Mbps video bitrate provides a superb balance of quality and size.
Using the 4K video downloader is designed to be straightforward. Follow these steps to fetch a YouTube video in 4K or another format:

There are many legitimate reasons to download 4K video from YouTube, including offline viewing, editing, education, and presentation use. Here are some common scenarios:
mp3saver respects copyright and intellectual property laws. The ability to download YouTube videos does not grant ownership or rights to redistribute those videos. You should only download content that you have permission to save or content that is clearly licensed for offline use. Always verify licensing terms and respect the rights of content creators. When in doubt, refer to YouTube's terms of service and the content's license. If you are using content for remixing, teaching, or public display, consider obtaining proper permissions or using content labeled for reuse.
4K video encoding on mp3saver covers a range of codecs and containers. Here are some technical details you may find useful when selecting your format:
Estimated file sizes for 4K downloads depend on length, bitrate, and chosen format. As a rough guide, a 10‑minute 4K video might range from roughly 150 MB to 1 GB depending on the codec and bitrate. A longer video or higher frame rate will increase size accordingly. Audio-only extractions (e.g., MP3 at 320 kbps) will be far smaller by comparison.
When deciding which format to download, consider the trade-offs between quality, size, and compatibility. Here is a quick comparison to help you decide:
For most users who want a balance of compatibility and quality, MP4 with HEVC/H.265 at 4K is a strong choice. If your device or browser supports WebM with VP9/AV1, you may prefer that format for streaming or quick downloads in the browser environment.

Downloading videos from YouTube may be subject to copyright and licensing restrictions. It is generally allowed to download videos you own or that are clearly labeled for reuse, or for personal offline viewing in jurisdictions where this is permitted. Always respect content creators' rights and YouTube's terms of service.
No installation is required for the web-based 4K downloader. It runs in your browser, though for some browsers you may need to enable cookies or allow scripts. This keeps a light footprint on your device.
For maximum compatibility and quality on 4K displays, choose MP4 with HEVC/H.265 at 3840x2160 resolution. If you prefer browser-based playback or smaller file sizes, WebM with VP9 or AV1 is a powerful alternative. For audio extraction, MP3 at 192–320 kbps yields good quality with small file sizes.
Downloading video uses bandwidth like any other download. If you have a limited data plan, consider selecting a lower resolution or using the 4K downloader for shorter clips to minimize data usage.
