Comments.Text: What media player are you using on your phone? Some players, like VLC IIRC, have the option to either play video in actual resolution or scaled to fit the screen. On desktop for interface reasons this doesn't typically happen but on mobile you could be that your phone app is showing at actual resolution instead of at actual ratio (scaled up to fill the screen)
