IPhone – How much video can you record on a 64 GB iPhone 12

iphonestoragevideovideo editing

I’m considering a phone upgrade, but don’t really need a lot of storage.
Approximately, how much of different resolutions video, can one record onto a 64GB iPhone 12?

How many minutes of video would a gigabyte of HDR Video Recording with “Dolby Vision” contain? How can I research this without knowing the technical specifics of a format I cannot access until I purchase a phone?

I’m not looking for very exact answers, just an approximation of HD video sizes and lengths in the context of the camera tech used in this specific phone.

Best Answer

The Camera settings on iPhone 12 shows

  • 4K @ 60fps is 440MB per minute.
  • 4K @ 30fps is 190MB per minute.

I don’t have an iPhone 12 to know exactly how much space is reserved by iOS but supposing it’s 15 GB that leaves 110 minutes of 4k60 or 257 minutes of 4k30.
