How much data does 4K streaming use?

4K (Ultra HD) streaming uses significantly more data than HD, averaging about 7 GB per hour. This calculator uses 3 GB/hr for HD, which represents standard 1080p.

Which activity uses the most data?

Video streaming is almost always the largest consumer of data. Watching just one hour of HD video daily uses more data (90GB/month) than 100 hours of browsing and music combined.

How can I reduce my data usage?

Lowering your video streaming quality from HD to SD is the most effective way to save data. Many apps like YouTube, Netflix, and TikTok have 'Data Saver' modes in their settings.
