Understanding JPG and HEIC Formats

JPG (JPEG) is the most common image format, used by digital cameras and smartphones worldwide. It uses lossy compression to reduce file size, but can leave visible artifacts at higher compression levels.[reference:0]

HEIC (High-Efficiency Image Container) is a modern format developed by the MPEG group. It uses HEVC compression to store high-quality images in files that are often half the size of equivalent JPGs. HEIC is the default format on Apple devices starting with iOS 11 and macOS High Sierra.[reference:1]
