Facebook Video Quality Cap

[radrichie88]

Is it me or is anyone else noticing that videos on Facebook look absolutely terrible. They are only played in the "HD" of 720p and nothing higher. When I click on the video setting its says play at the highest quality available and the highest manual setting is 720p...Did I miss something or does FB limit the quality on LG phones???

Did you disable "data maximizer" on your phone's carrier plan? I know Metro PCS and T-Mobile has that where it limits streaming quality.
