Download Facebook videos in HD and 4K
Download public Facebook videos in HD, Full HD 1080p, 2K or 4K when those resolutions are available from the source.
Paste a public Facebook video URL into SSSFb to see the qualities that Facebook exposes for that video. Choose HD, SD or another available MP4 resolution.
The downloader runs online on phones, tablets and computers. No desktop software, browser extension or SSSFb account is required.
A 1080p, 2K or 4K option appears only when the original Facebook upload and accessible streams provide that quality.
Facebook video quality guide
| Quality | Typical resolution | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| SD | Up to 480p | Smaller files and slower connections |
| HD | 720p | Everyday phone and desktop viewing |
| Full HD | 1080p | Sharper video when the source provides it |
| 2K / 4K | 1440p / 2160p | Only for original uploads exposed at that resolution |
Why the requested resolution can be unavailable
- SSSFb does not upscale video: a 720p source cannot become genuine 1080p or 4K.
- Facebook may expose high-resolution video and audio as separate streams. SSSFb prepares a playable file when both streams can be combined.
- A 4K upload may be returned as 1080p after Facebook processing, compression or access restrictions. Resolution describes pixel dimensions, not sharpness, bitrate or overall visual quality.
Frequently asked questions
Can every Facebook video be downloaded in 4K?+
No. 4K is only available when Facebook exposes a 4K stream for the public source video.
Does SSSFb support Full HD 1080p?+
Yes, when a public video offers an accessible 1080p format.
Can I download HD Facebook videos on iPhone or Android?+
Yes. Use SSSFb in a modern mobile browser and choose the available quality.
Why does an HD download have no sound?+
Some high-resolution sources separate video and audio. Retry the prepared MP4 or choose a lower combined format if one is listed.
Why did my 4K video download as 1080p?+
The public stream exposed by Facebook may be limited to 1080p even when the original upload was higher resolution.
