Recently, according to the XDA Forum, Google could override the classic 4GB file size limit on Android 11.0.





Google made this decision in 2014. At the time, the largest mobile phone with built-in storage was only 32GB in the market, SD cards were also widely popular, and very few phones had 4K video recording.

And 5 years later, with 1TB of storage appearing in the mobile phone market, SD cards have slowly receded from the public view, 4K video recording has already become popular, and the public will begin 8K video recording.





For this purpose, XDA has excavated that Google is pushing this 4GB size limit in Android 11.0. It is reported that Google has experimented with recording 32GB of video and even tried to cover the entire storage of the phone by recording a phone. Users can use Android in March 2020 to see this change in 11 betas.
