How to Compress Images for Email Newsletters on Android
Android phones can compress images right in the browser. Newsletter images load inside email clients, often on mobile data, so every kilobyte counts toward a fast open.
Recommended settings for email newsletters
| Setting | Starting point |
|---|---|
| Format | JPEG (WebP where accepted) |
| Width | about 1200 px on the long edge |
| Quality | 70 |
| File size | 150 KB or less |
These are practical defaults. If the platform or form you are using publishes its own limits, follow those instead.
