How to Download 4K Facebook Videos (Why HD Option May Be Missing)

As content creators produce videos using 4K cameras and smartphones, Facebook supports Ultra HD (2160p) and Full HD (1080p) video streaming. If you want to download 4K Facebook videos to watch on large Smart TV screens or edit in professional software like Premiere Pro, EpicSaver provides a high-speed serverless 4K video extractor. In this guide, we explain how to download 4K Facebook videos and why HD options might be missing for certain clips.

3-Step Method: How to Download 4K Facebook Videos

1. Copy 4K Video Link: Open Facebook on your PC or phone. Find the 4K or HD video post and select Share -> Copy Link.
2. Paste into EpicSaver 4K Extractor: Go to EpicSaver 4K Downloader, paste the link, and click Download.
3. Save 4K Ultra HD MP4: Click Download HD (or 4K) to save the highest resolution video file straight to your computer or phone.

Why Is the HD or 4K Download Option Missing?

If you only see an SD download option:

• Low Resolution Upload: The publisher uploaded a low-resolution clip (360p/480p).
• Processing Time: Recently uploaded 4K videos take time for Facebook to process into 4K streams.
• Mobile Data Compression: Facebook mobile app defaults to low-resolution uploads unless "Upload in HD" is enabled in settings.

Where Downloaded Files Save

• Android: /Downloads/ folder and Google Photos.
• iPhone / iPad: Safari Downloads -> Share -> Save Video for Camera Roll.
• PC & Mac: System Downloads directory.

Supported vs Unsupported Content

• ✅ Supported: Public 4K posts, public 1080p Reels, public 4K Watch series.
