What is 3GP?
3GP is a multimedia container format developed by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for mobile devices. It is primarily used for storing video and audio files in a compact size while maintaining acceptable quality, making it ideal for mobile networks with limited bandwidth. 3GP files typically contain video streams encoded with H.263 or H.264 and audio streams in AMR, AAC, or MP3 formats.
What is MP4?
MP4 is a widely-used digital multimedia format designed to store video, audio, and other data like subtitles and images. Known for its versatility and efficiency, MP4 delivers high-quality video and audio while maintaining a relatively small file size, making it ideal for streaming, sharing, and storage.
