While select creators received early access last month, all X Premium users can now upload 4K videos. This upgrade aligns with X's increasing focus on video content and its vision of becoming an "everything app," as stated by Elon Musk in 2023.
The rollout of 4K support was initially planned for late 2023 but faced delays. With more people viewing X content on larger screens, including TVs, this update arrives at a crucial time.
Benefits of 4K Video Uploads
- Improved video quality
- Wider audience reach
- Enhanced content creation options
This feature is currently exclusive to X Premium subscribers. For creators targeting an audience on X, the enhanced video quality and potential reach could justify the subscription cost.
Improved Live-Streaming Coming Soon
X is also developing improved live-streaming capabilities to expand broadcast capacity. While details are scarce, these upgrades are expected in a future update. Stay tuned for more information.
