<p class=level_1_indented>The 3GP and 3G2 video file formats are specifically designed to play on mobile phones.&nbsp; Third Generation Mobile Phone (3GP) format produces small files with extension .3GP.&nbsp; These files are created and played on third generation mobile phones using GSM.&nbsp; For CDMA phones, use the 3G2 format.</p>

<p class=level_1_indented>The compression of videos is quite high so that it can play back with acceptable quality on a small screen, using the low-powered processors of cellular phones.&nbsp; They can be played on a PC using Apple's <a href="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" target=_blank>QuickTime Player</a>.</p>
