HEIC vs. JPG Comparison
Apple introduced the High Efficiency Image File Format to save space, but standard JPG remains the most compatible format worldwide. Here is how they stack up:
- •Storage Efficiency: HEIC uses advanced HEVC compression, occupying roughly half the disk storage of a standard JPEG file with the exact same visual details.
- •Color Support: HEIC supports 16-bit color depth (capturing more gradients and shades), whereas standard JPEG only supports 8-bit color.
