Does the video quality setting say whether it's 60fps like it does on the iOS YouTube app? Because I viewed the video and it just says "1080p" and not "1080p 60 fps"

That's the crap mine does. It should allow us to select 60fps, but it doesn't for some reason

It should show 1080P 60 fps.

Are you sure it's a video that supports it? I get it on videos that support it. View attachment 237742

Yes. These are videos that I know support 60fps. Some were shot and edited by me. Besides, I can watch the same videos on other android devices in 60 fps

Hm that is odd that I see them and you don't. Try clearing data on the YouTube app. Re-login back into the YouTube app and see.

I even watch video in 1440 no issues. T-Mobile

Not showing up for me either.

Re: 60 fps YouTube videos

Yeah, 60fps option doesn't show up on mine either. Verizon.

I just viewed that exact video on YouTube and I don't have the 60fps options like you do.

Re: 60 fps YouTube videos

I notice you guys are on Verizon from your screenshots. Maybe something they did? Mine is T-Mobile.

I have the Note 7 on T-Mobile here in Las Vegas, Nevada and when I went to the same video on the YouTube app I have the option to pick 1080p 60fps just fine but it was buffering often.



Without Wi-FI

Re: 60 fps YouTube videos

Yeah I'm in Vegas too, looks like it is a Verizon thing. Shouldn't have anything to do with the carrier though. My iPhone 6 plus was also on Verizon and always displayed 60 fps when available.

I think it does depend on the carrier because when I had my iPhone 6s Plus here on T-Mobile I was locked out of changing the resolution on cellular so the videos on the YouTube app always looked horrible until I connected to Wi-Fi but with my Note 7 I can pick any resolution that's available while on celluar...

That's an iPhone thing not a carrier thing.

If it was buffering that just means the connection couldn't keep up. The option is there on our T-Mobile variants so something is up with Verizon ones from the looks of the others who have Verizon yet don't see it.

Maybe Verizon blocks it on their service? Does anyone know if the Note 5 on Verizon works the same way?

I had a Note 5 on Verizon, and it worked just fine selecting 1080P 60 fps. The wife has one currently, and it also works. Besides, the Note 7 has the problem even while on wifi, which is ridiculous

Re: 60 fps YouTube videos

I am on AT&T and I have the 60fps option. It has to be something Verizon did to the phone.

If it's not working on Wi-Fi either but it's working on the T-Mobile, AT&T and I would assume Sprint models then it's either a software issue on Verizon Note 7's or Verizon is just outright blocking that feature with their own software changes (this is probably the issue).
