I still remember the horor of watching YouTube videos in 480p during pandamic.

It's a welcome feature. But I think 1080p is enough in a smartphone for most people. But obviously having more freedom of choosing video resolution is always good. Thank you Google.

Just trying 4k 60fps on my old Xiaomi mi5 - everything works fine with some hiccups due to internet connection here and there. Works even better than on my laptop with intel core i5 6300u.

I just tested it on mine Mate 20 X and it doesn't look good .. When I searched for 8k video and selected 4k I can see shimmering on certain spots.. when I selected 2k it was less and when I selected back to 1k then shimmering on certain spots gone...
On 4k video there were less shimmering..

Higher resoultion settings have higher bit-rates, So you benefit by getting less compression artifacts.

Huawei P30 lite, cannot see the 4k option even after updating the YouTube app. Even though I'm pretty sure the phone has more than enough processing power to play 4k videos smoothly.
When I watch 1080p videos on YouTube, I can clearly see some artefacts, would be sweet to have the 4k option
